Hey! What are your thoughts on open work permit? Could I apply for it? Since it doesn't require an LMIA. I would still have a job offer.

On what basis do you qualify for an open work permit?

They are only issued in very limited circumstances.

Nothing you have said so far would indicate that you meet the requirements for an open work permit.

Sounds about right. Thanks for the replies.
 
Hi my NOC in EE is 0601 ( corporate sakes manager) and I am getting LMIA approved job in 6211 ( Retail sales supervisor) with 50 points in EE I would be at 480 , after ITA will it be a problem as my Job experience is in different NOC and LMIA in different NOC

If anyone nows...??
 
It's possible you may get through in two months, however we are seeing a lot of people wait much longer these days.

Also keep in mind that your employer has to advertise your job per the LMIA advertising requirements for at least one month before submitting the LMIA application. Chances are extremely high that the advertising your employer has done so far doesn't meet these requirements and that your employer will have to re-advertise your job for another month. Make sure they read through the LMIA requirements in detail. Failing to meet the advertising requirements results in rejection.
Scylla, i wanted to ask: can someone have PNP job offer in a different NOC, and have EE primary profile in a different NOC? Is that possible

It's not mandatory to apply for an employer specific work permit. You can use the LMIA and job offer to get the 50 additional points for Express Entry only. You do not have to apply for a work permit as well.
does the lmia noc need to match the work exp noc, or it can vary a little?
 
Hi Members, I would like to seek your guidance. From the very beginning, My Job Offer and Issued Work Permit is NOC 1123 than upon receiving my PNP Nomination the province assessed my same Job offer and Responsibilities to be more aligned to NOC 0124 as I was advised by them to use 0124.

MY concern what happens to my existing EE profile as I already get ITA?
