LMIA concern

[shifty]

Hi folks.

Im studying engineering, currently living outside of Canada. I havent finished my school yet and for multiple reasons I was planning on stopping university for at least a semester and go work in Canada for that period. I have already studied 1 year in a Canadian university and interned during this last summer for a company there. Since Id be applying without having finished my degree, I would consider myself a low skilled employee, and I fear that my LMIA would be rejected. But the fact that I got a couple of certifications from the company and that I already worked there once would help with the approval of the LMIA? Do I have chances, basically? Id also be the only TFW working on that company. Not sure if that helps.

Thank you all, this is a really great forum.

I didnt say that low skilled wont get LMIA, but I heard its harder, since its not as easy for the employer to prove that they can't find a Canadian employee with the same or better skills.

I know my employer personally, so he'd be hiring me directly, not through any agencies.

Yes - it's harder. Your employer will have to make sure they fully satisfy the advertising requirement to prove they need to hire a foreign worker and can't find a Canadian for the position.

Ooh then GOODLUCK . If the wage is higher then you are lucky to go through LMIA .

Hey Guys, My employer was contacted today by Service Canada and asked to submit schedule C. But employer does not exactly know what to fill in that, If you have a copy of what you filled could you send it please. That would be a great help.

Thanks
