[Saur]

hello everybody;

I am reading all the forums on this website from lat 2-3 months and found these very knowledgeable and up-to-date.
Thanks for that.
I also want to share my situation so that I can also get the right direction:

*came as an International student in Private College in 2008; completed the 1-year diploma being a Best Scholar in the collegein 2009
*took the admission in 2-yr accounting Diploma in Humber and completed the course in 1-yr (took some credits because having B.Com from back home) with honors
*got 1yr PGWP
*got job in one of leading banks of Canada as an Investment Specialist on contract bsis; after that got the full time position
*before expiry of PGWP, my manager applied for LMO and got positive LMO and I applied for work permit extension, now waiting for work permit

my question is under which category should I apply PR and at what time.

Thanks

If you have studied in canada 1 year and having 1 year full time work experience ( A,B, O) then you can apply under CEC
If you have more then 2 years full time work experience in skill level A, B, o then apply >> CEC

OR

Apply for Skilled worker ...if you fall under that..

No, this is not correct. The educational requirement is as follows:

If you want to apply based on your Canadian credentials, you must complete either:
• a full-time Canadian post-secondary educational program of at least two years or
•a one-year Master’s program (certificates and diplomas cannot be counted) and an additional year of education, obtained in Canada, before admission into the one-year program (for a total of two years).

Saur, so based on the requirements (as posted by rjessome), the 2nd degree would have to be a master's level, and I don't think the diploma from Humber would qualify.

So I think your best options are to:

A) look into the PNP program (if you're still in Ontario, it's Opportunities Ontario)
http://www.ontarioimmigration.ca/en/pnp/index.htm

B) Consider the pros and cons of applying under the Federal Skilled Workers Program, FSW2 (arranged employment)

C) Work for 2 years and apply under the CEC program as a skilled worker


Options A and B will require a supportive employer (which it sounds like you have), but both require that the offer of permanent employment remain valid throughout the entire processing period.

Option C - once you qualify, you qualify.

You have options, which is good. And there's no reason you can't pursue more than one...

Thanks alot jes_no, these options are great.
Thanks rejesome and Duke.



Hey faroob2, talk to your immediate manager. I have also talked to HR department and they asked me to talk to immediate manager. I did that and it worked for me. all the best...
