I'm from the Philippines applying for Alberta as a Store supervisor. I had an agency here and I was interviewed by my prospective employer via video conferrence and was asked to sign a contract to be able to file for my LMO. This was filed last October 2007. Initially, I was informed by my agency here, that it will take around 18 weeks to get processed. It is already March, 18 weeks had lapsed but when I called my agency they said no LMO had been relased yet and I need to wait some more time. They informed me that last positve LMO they received was processed for 8 months...I just want to know how long am I going to wait for the LMO and how much longer will it take for the visa and work permit processing? I already gave a processing fee to my agency. I just want to know if it's really legal or am I victimized already!!PLEASE HELP...
