PNP - SINP Employment Offer

[thimayer]

Hi everyone,

This is my timeline:

Oct 12, 2021 - Job Offer
Jan 19, 2022 - JAL
Jan 20, 2022 - SINP application
Feb 8, 2022 - SINP nomination approval
Feb 17, 2022 - PR application (Online trough PR Portal under PNP) - In process
Feb 23, 2022 - Online Work Permit application trough IRCC account (T-13 LMIA exempt) - In process
Mar 8, 2022 - Biometrics completed

Is anyone in the same boat?

I was not asked for medical exam yet and not sure how long I should expect for the final decision on the WP and be allowed to move.

Yep, I'm literally three weeks behind you. As I'm an open work permit expiring in October, I submitted my new closed work permit application with the SINP Work Permit Support Letter about a week ago.

When you say "In process", is that the term used under the "Status" column of your online PNP application? Does it say "In process" or "Submitted"?

 

[thimayer]

The first page says "Submitted"...

When I hit on my application, it show the following message:

"We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you."
Latest update:
Biometrics - March 8, 2022: Completed.

Which application are you referring to? 1) Your PNP application via the PR Portal, or 2) Your Temporary Work Permit application via GCKey?

I believe I don't need Biometrics for either application as I did them for my IEC visa, and as such that is valid for both these streams.

The WP application.

The WP application.

Yeah it's just a waiting game for us. As long as you sent a complete application with the work permit support letter (which is central to it) it should be fine.

Thank you, moscatojuices.

Is the PR Portal (link below) only for inland people? I am applying from Brazil, and I am unsure if I am doing it right.

After receiving the SINP nomination, I have just created the online account there, submitted documents, and paid the fees. After applying, I received the following email on Feb 17, 2022:

"Hello,

Yep that's exactly what I got. The link is for anyone eligible for non-Express Entry PNP.

Now, the most important thing you can do is:

• Wait patiently for the AOR and everything after (expect anywhere between 11-15 months)
• Don't get fired from your job
• Don't commit a crime serious enough to make you inadmissible to Canada

Does anyone know if I am eligible to apply for the WP at the airport once I have a valid eTA, Job Offer, Offer of Employment number, and fell on the IMP? I am outland waiting for the WP.

It is frustrating that I have a Job Offer and can not start working. It should take a 2-week processing time, but I still have no updates on my WP application.

I mean, the website quite clearly says you can...

And where are you getting a 2-week processing time from?

 

[thimayer]

I mean 2-week processing time because I fell on the International Mobility Program.

In this case, need I to do the upfront medical exam? How about Biometrics, it is collected at the airport? I couldn’t find much information about it.

 

[thimayer]

For those who are in the same situation, I have been researching it, and below is the sum up.

The online process I have opened does not interfere with the POE application. I need to gather all the documents (especially regarding my provincial nomination and work permit support letter), issue an eTA (which I already have), and apply for a work permit at the first Canadian airport. The same applies to my spouse’s OWP application. It is essential to have in hand the translated marriage certificate.

I will wait a few more weeks for an update on my online application. If nothing happens, I will book a flight and go. I will update here after next steps.

Although I already gave biometrics, I don't need to do it before travel. I am going to have the upfront medical exam next week and try to update it on my online application. If I decide to apply at the POE, I will take this medical exam.
