my employer got call from service canada and they ask to increase salary for employee is any one have same experiance please share.

One of the very reasons of the existence of the LMO process is to guarantee that the average salary for your category is not reduced by hiring foreign workers that accept to do the same job for less money.

Probably your employer made you an offer that is more than 15% (if I recall correctly) lower than the average.

Good luck!

Help me out

Hi everyone,
I'm from Bangladesh. I applied for TFWP through a overseas consultancy office in September 2012. I received my second letter in February 2013. And now I'm waiting for my lmo. I went to the office and they are saying I'll get my lmo by this month. As they are saying it from the last 3 months. If anybody is in the same situation as I am please contact me. Or anybody in here is from Bangladesh and applied for work permit please contact.
Thanks.

HI Guys,

I have a question, the day you receive your contract mean to say that is the time they will process the application for LMO?

Thank you for your assistance with this matter

No ...

Application for LMO needs some documents that need to be prepared e.g. Proof of advertising the job on the web for 14 days, etc.

Ideally LMO should be applied within 2 to 3 weeks of having received the offer letter.

@ michael87

Thank you for the information

But they didn't inform me what is going on regarding my papers. As per my Agency they told me that within this month there is a big chance that i will receive my LMO.
Hoping and Praying. GOD BLESS

Currently the waiting time for LMO's from date of application is between 10 to 12 weeks atleast.

When was your LMO applied? Mine was applied on 29 July and no response till date.

@michael87

I just applied my LMO 1st week of July this year and until now no response yet. Just want to ask if u applied direct or through agency?

Thanks.

@ Storezt30

LMO has to be applied by the employer, not by the prospective employee.

Mine was applied by my employer.

So am a bit unsure how you applied for your LMO?

 

[samir3132]

lmo apply direct by employer or representive

 

[Storezt30]

oooppppsss, sorry about that

Yah, i mean to say my employer.

@Storezt30

What is your NOC code, and where was your LMO applied?

Thanks

 

[michael87]

LMO applied: 29 July 13
LMO approved: 11 Oct 13.
Applied in Ontario.

My suggestion, given current processing times, forget about receiving your outcome for atleast 11 to 12 weeks. Expectation of LMO approval earlier than this timeline only led to disappointment for me.
