Hello all,

It is stated on the CIC website that the applicant must 'plan to live outside the province of Quebec' to qualify for the CEC. I am currently residing in Ottawa (Ontairo) and work in Gatineau (Quebec), and I do not plan to move to Quebec.

I hold a Post-graduate work permit (PGWP) which is LMIA-exempt thus deeming me ineligible for the 600 points. Is it possible for my employer to get the LMIA approval at all? Even if the job is in Quebec?

Thank you.
Cheers!
