LMIA Exempt under R205(d) under charitable work-will there be issues for PR later on ?

[VisaApprovalSent]

If someone is LMIA Exempt under charitable work, and getting paid , will it lead to PR as long as they are getting median wages and full time work.What is the catch here.?
The job is that of a office administrator at a church.

What is the NOC? How long have you worked in Canada? What is your Express Entry score?

It may lead to PR if they meet the minimum criteria of a program and can score enough points. This certainly won't guarantee PR. The catch would be that this isn't an in-demand occupation so PNP may not be possible which means they would need to score enough points to be selected through EE. Depends on the province they will be working in and many other factors such as their age, level of education, language abilities, etc.

So why haven’t you received an ITA yet if you have a CRS score of 519.

Thanks for your reply and Good point. This is a projection only. Person will start working soon. If he works with this back ground for 1 year , with all the other criterias such as language, education,sibling , will you say EE will be the route to go for PR ? since PNP may not be possible

Hypothetical so things can change in a year. Focus on EE. Learn French.

Agreed, things are so fluid with immigration nowadays.
One more doubt, for an LMIA exempt job offer ,the employer is paying less than the median wage ,will that be a concern later on ? Currently median wage is $27, offer is for $20

So LMIA exemption was approved without meeting median wage?

Employer is offering less than median . LMIA exemption not yet approved.

Wait and see if approved because that is usually a requirement, and that is a huge difference.
