Do you think it is possible to apply for lmo when i havent worked for them for a long them?

Yes, they can apply now for the LMO. they could have also applied before you started working. Doesn't matter how long.


I read on cic website and it said that if i'm on pgwp, Employers hiring former PGWPP participants in higher-skilled occupations are not required to conduct recruitment or advertisement efforts,

Yes, this is true, your employer does not have to demonstrate recruitment efforts. You must click on the link that amikety provided and read the information there, show it to your employer.

Hi everyone. I graduated MBA and got 14 months post graduation work permit. I worked in a restaurant as a server while i'm in my off campus work permit then my pgwp to get experience and support myself but it doesnt count. My boss wanted to promote and fill lmo for me as assistant manager. they own franchise companies so i think it is big enough to qualify pr and lmo requirements. However, something came up and i got laid off. i got a job offer from other restaurant that is small and a family own business. They run business for 12 years already and just changed to a new owner about 1.5 years ( i read on internet). They pay $16.5 per hour and work 40 hours per week. they do not have to provide transportation and accommodation cost because i have been here for 4 years. now i pgwp will expire in oct 30, 2013. i just started working there since july 1.they willing to provide lmo for me because i work volunteer ( doesnt count) for them for 1 year, so they know about my education and experience. is it possible for me to get positive lmo? they want me to work for them and get my first cheque in august then fill out lmo. do i have enough time to get lmo and then apply for work permit? there is a CIC strike now. Thanks
Hows your application for applying a new work permit and PR? Did you successfully remain in Canada as a Permanent Resident? Im currently in the same situation as you were. Please help. Thanks.
