Hi Asivad,

Since you are very good in responding and explaining. I have few questions to ask. I am on post grad open work permit and working for almost past 8 months. My questions are:

1) Does my employer has to pay 1000 dollar fee for LMIA even I have work permit already?

2) Does my employer has to advertise job for 4 weeks. If so, it doesn't make sense at all. Why we need to post a job for 4 weeks knowing the fact that I'm working for company already?

Your responses would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Asivad,

Since you are very good in responding and explaining. I have few questions to ask. I am on post grad open work permit and working for almost past 8 months. My questions are:

1) Does my employer has to pay 1000 dollar fee for LMIA even I have work permit already?

That is indeed the case when your employer files a dual-intent LMIA application. In the other LMIA application (which doesn't carry a charge), the applicant cannot start working till a positive LMIA decision is made. In your case, I imagine your work status can continue unchanged in parallel with the LMIA application process. Of course, you can continue working till your work permit expires irrespective of the outcome of this LMIA application.

2) Does my employer has to advertise job for 4 weeks. If so, it doesn't make sense at all. Why we need to post a job for 4 weeks knowing the fact that I'm working for company already?

Yes. That is a requirement of the LMIA process. It makes sense when you consider the fact that you are not yet a PR/citizen and if there is a PR/citizen who is willing and able to do that job, Canada doesn't need you to come in as a PR for this particular job.

Your responses would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for your response. I believe my employer doesn't need to apply for dual intent LMIAs. Correct? It is used to support the foreign nationals’ application to CIC for a:

permanent resident visa; and
temporary work permit.

I don't need support of work permit from them. Currently on a 3 year open work permit. Only need assistance with PR visa. For PR visa, no fee required from employer. Could you confirm this?

Thanks

The consultants are right. You score only 65/100 and even that presumes that you have 4.5 years of full-time work experience in the same NOC.

You score only 19/24 in the Language section. If you can improve your IELTS scores in Reading, Speaking and Writing to 7 and maintain Listening at 8.5, you will be eligible for EE.

All the best!

I did EE on 03 August 2015, and I got result and final scores, but now when today I logged in and go to "View submitted application" there is some data is missing such as work history.

Is this normal or I have to refill and resubmit.

Please guide.

Hi

I am about to begin my application for express entry under federal skilled worker scheme. I get myself assessed by the CIC score tool and the result came out positive. A reference number was generated. I took my IELTS exam in July and scored 8. Also found out my NOC code, I am a Geoscientist.

However, i am a little confused about some issues and thus I need your help.

1. Do I need to submit or post supporting documents during setting the initial express entry profile?
2. I am arranging to get my educational credentials get assessed, but how do I get my work experience assessed? I have the reference letters from my supervisors according to the format specified in the CIC website.
3. Do I need to get my spouse's education assessed too?


Waiting for a kind reply

No. You will be required to do this after getting an ITA.

2. I am arranging to get my educational credentials get assessed, but how do I get my work experience assessed? I have the reference letters from my supervisors according to the format specified in the CIC website.

You don't have to get work experience assessed. Reference letters in the required format would suffice.

3. Do I need to get my spouse's education assessed too?

It can add up to 10 points to your CRS. Your call if those are worth the money you will spend on spouse's ECA.
