Hi Everyone,
Hoping to get some insight or suggestions in regards to my sisters application :
- her initial Open Graduate Work Permit was set to expire in March 2014
- One week before the expiry, she filed for an extension of the work permit, based on the LMO file number ( her employer had submitted LMO , which was in process)
- during the wait for the LMO to get approved, the whole McDonalds debacle happened - She was one of the 12 employees, McD had submitted LMO for.
- During that time period, a hold was put on all LMO Applications, especially McD, and every time she called CIC, she was told it is on hold.
- this went on till Dec 2014, when she received a letter saying, her status is unclear - pending inquiry of McD's Employment standards or whatever.
- At any point she did not receive a letter saying she should leave Canada
- In Feb 2015 she received an email saying - her work permit app has been rejected cz the McD LMO was suspended.
- In March 2015 i hired an immigration consultant to file TRV - Visitor visa citing humanitarian grounds, inconvenience suffered due to McD inquiry, affecting her inability to work or support herself in Canada
- April 2015 - TRV got rejected.
- In Nov 2015 - she got married to her long time bf - canadian PR
- PR filed in Dec 18 2015
- AOR received Feb 7 2016
- police certificate request June 2016
Sorry for the long read - my question:
- since she was without any status in Canada pretty much for 6-7 months from April 2015 - Nov 2015
- is she eligible to apply for a Work Permit based on her spouse's status in CAnada and that her PR file is in progress at CIC
Thank you in advance.
