i am kinda new to this section . i have send my application under CEC on December and rumors are that my application will be sent back to me because the global cap was reached on October 20,2014. i am here on a closed work permit and i came here on an Intra Company Transfer.
in understand that LMIA carries 600 points for the express entry but i also read somewhere that an intra compnay transfer is LMIA exempt.

I am also in same situation, not finding the way from where I can get the LIMA document/approval etc.. Me too on the same Intra-company transfer program in Canada. I am not sure who will provide us the LIMA document etc.
I was there in Canada on WP (intra company transfer) , I was traveled back to my Country; I am eligible for EE.. but points are low to CIC pickup me from pool.
To increase it I need LMIA , and wanted to know how to get it..

currently only two path : get a new work permit with LMIA . or . apply PNP , ( btw : ontario PNP for EE is not ready, website say it is developing, who know when it will be ok, maybe they limit some occupation )
To clarify, you worked in Canada (how long, which NOC or skill level OAB?) and have now returned home? Is your company sending you back to work in Canada again or are you hoping to get an LMIA to cover work you DID already? Intracompany jobs do not require job advertising and proof that a local couldn't be found which makes it easier for you to come to work in Canada in the first place. That is why an LMIA is not required for intracompany transfers.
I am not an expert, but if you have a full year of full time Canadian employment couldn't you use that to apply for CEC through the EE stream?
you can apply for CEC through EE stream with your 1+ year of experience. But my understanding is that without LMIA you wouldn't get 600 points, and without those 600 points, you wouldn't rank very high in the pool (which have a lot of competition). Infra-company transfers don't necessarily require LMIA. So you can't do anything unless you find an employer(or same employer) who is willing to do LMIA for you. LMIA won't be done for past work.
just frantic search in internet, through friends in the community etc. That's what I did and came across one who was ready to do LMIA. I consider it sheer luck + extensive effort of day and night search. Search across Canada and be ready to relocate if you find an employer. If you are in Canada still hopeful. But once out of here chances are minimal. Sorry I sounded harsh, but just wanted to be truthful of the reality.
