LMO for international student

[may_1986]

Hi Swapnil!

First of all congratulations that you have a Job and the best of all employer is ready to file LMO.

I HAD A SIMILAR SITUATION LIKE YOU ONE YEAR BACK. I RECEIVED MY LMO AND 3 YEARS WORK PERMIT NOW.

I would like to suggest you to take some precautions while planning your years ahead, the most important thing in your profile is your job title i.e NOC Code. So wherever you work or receive any kind of help always remember that you should have job title and duties which should match from any code of NOC A B or O list.
Secondly don't wait for PGWP to expire because for us every second counts and in this country we cant believe anyone for any kind of support or help, always remember we are temporary residents and citizens need us for help them in their purpose, once it is solved you are gone. Keep contacts with every employer and be useful to your existing, get your LMO done as soon as you join in your PGWP because LMO take 2-3months time and if it get rejected for some reason you will run out of time.

Do share your job title, I will try to guide you best on paper work and strategy to follow to be in proper status till you get PR.

You have three months to apply for your PGWP.

You should get a one year work permit if the course is labelled as "1-year program".

Good luck!

Work permit depends on LMO and LMO are issued based on offer of employement/Employment letter. I have obtained 3yrs work permit and all my mates who filed it based on extended job offer or permanent offer get minimum 2years.

Often Layers and consultants file it for 1yr so that they can get fees again from your for getting it extended.

Hi everyone,
