I understand this, but how can I get my self a temporary work permit if I dont have any work experience in semi skilled NOC categories? Is it possible to come to Canada to work for a 1 year period if I have a job offer from any NOC category or there are only specific categories which are eligible?smiling face said:first thing: you must have a job offer here in canada and worked at least six months before you are eligible to apply for nomination in ALBERTA IMMIGRANT NOMINEE PROGRAM. yes i'm here in canada and all applicants for the SEMI-SKILLED CATEGORIES are all working here in Alberta, specifically. So for now you can find this job thru the website of jobbank.ca under the Hotel Front Desk Clerk.
.win3 said:Hi everyone. I am new here. I would appreciate all the help I need. I am applying as a Hotel Front Desk clerk. According to the website, I have to be employed in Alberta for 6 months before I can be nominated. Does this mean I have to work for 6 months as front desk clerk before I can apply? Or I can apply as soon as I have the work permit since I have been here in Alberta for more than 1 year as a food counter attendant. (Unfortunately, there are others who came before me who will be applying for nomination). In the website, it just said that I should have a certificate, are there any other requirements that are needed? I am afraid I won't be nominated for lack of hotel-related experience. Please help. Thanks.
i think you can call ainp office when its beyond the processing times. Cause when i called them to make a follow-up on my application, they told me to call them back on my 11th month. Luckily, i recieved their letter before that.Pnay said:Hi everyone. I am new here. I would like to join this thread, too.
I applied for AINP through a lawyew that was contracted by my company. The lawyer submitted my papers February 22, 2010. The lawyer emailed me my File Num March 2010. Btw, I am a Food Counter Attendant.
No follow up or progress until now. Im getting desperate already because two of my colleagues are processing their requirements already considering that we applied at the same time.
not a problem. special thanks to "smiling face" who created this thread. He has been a great help.Pnay said:Dodge Ram,
Thank you for your answer. Im actually giving myself until January 2011 to receive a letter from them. If not, I think I will call them to follow-up. Im just hesitant on that idea because I heard stories that if you call the AINP office, they are going to delay your application. Im not sure how true is that.
Btw, thank you again. I hope this thread will continue because this is actually a big help to the semi-skilled workers.
