So, as I understand it, Positive LMIA are now only worth 50 points in EE, not the 600 points they were when employer sent in application.

Couple days, sometimes it's a good idea to call and ask them.

Hi Sam0604,
My congratulations to you!
Do you know what number your employer used to call Service Canada?
BTW, did you received the mail with LMIA already? Wonder how long does it takes to get it after approval.

If somebody knows answers, please share.

Xmas Gift for me! ;D

Employer received positive answer Today and letter to be mailed out.

Here is my timeline update:
Application received in St John on Oct 20
Confirmation letter on Oct 28
Employer received a call on Dec 13 asking for additional documents
Additional documents being prepared:
a) my personal document with place of birth
b) proof of active advertisements
c) a couple of corporate documents (I don't know much about it as my employer didn't detail it to me)

Documents were sent and the officer asked for more detailed information from the accountant, my employer said it looked like the officer only ckecking the boxes on her end.

After some back and forth, the officer asked for a updated job offer because the wage increased from the day the application was sent to now.
NOC 1223 - Property Administrator medium wage $23 hourly.

Dec 23 - LMIA approved, now waiting for the letter and then PNP (because it adds only 50 points now) and then EE.

Good luck to everyone! Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!!!!!
