Hi guys, I need help!
My employer prepared and sent pre-screen application to OINP in January but it came back because stream is closed. Now it's almost April and it is still not opening. The problem is that I have only one year work visa that I got trough working holiday and it expires on 15th June this year (in 2,5 months).
Looks like even if the stream opens and he gets approved, my work visa will expire by then. I work here in Ontario for him for 9months.
After my visa expires I will go back home to Croatia.
Question:
Can my employer make a job offer to me as a foreign worker that lives abroad? Do I need to have a valid work visa for him to hire me? I am confused because in the applicant guide it says that if he gets approved, he needs to give me a job offer with my start date but how can he do that if I am not allowed to work until I get provincial nomination? And I can not get provincial nomination without sending my package with all documents (and job offer in it).I should get provincial nomination and then get work permit until I get PR. Right?
I am just so confused about employer hiring someone that does not have a work permit and lives outside of Canada. :-[
Please correct me if I misunderstood something.
Thank you in advance!
Ana
