Hello
@legalfalcon, any input or directions will be very highly appreciated. Here is my scenario:
I am an Indian citizen (current country of residence: US) dental professional trained in US & certified/eligible for license in Canada. My EE FSW (NOC 3113) application has been submitted since 8 Sept 2020 and currently in processing delays. I have a full time employment offer from an employer in Canada. My employer and I wanted to explore the work permit option (as recommended by you on one of the forum posts) and not wait for EE at this time due to unforeseen delays. I had a couple of questions for the work permit process:
1. How do I determine if a LMIA will be needed or will it be exempt?
2. What kind of work permit would be applicable in this case?
3. What is the processing timeline for such kinds of work permit application?
I will really appreciate your response and kind help. Thank you very much for helping all of us with all your insights & experience. It has been a big help even before I made my profile & started the EE journey.
Thanking you in advance for your time!
