I'm in dilemma here. I work as a shipping supervisor (skilled) in Alberta (Calgary) and my company was doing LMIA for this position last year (mid 2016.) and it was denied. I don't know if the reason was that economy hit rock bottom at that point because company's cap and everything was ok, ads ok, etc
I'm now on my second and last IEC visa and company agreed to do another LMIA but I don't know if I should
do for the same position (shipping supervisor - skilled) - if approved I can go to EE and permanent residency.
Or should they do LMIA just for shipper position (non-skilled) and go thru PNP (AINP) for nomination and then permanent res.
So my question is, since last time my LMiA was denied, should I try again get skilled LMIA or should I go for non-skilled, which is more likely I'll get?
Its logical too me if Alberta asks for shippers (since this is a job they give nominations) that they will more likely approve this LMIA?

IEC is valid till end of August. I'm sorry but I don't understand why is this important? If I go thru AINP even if it's not granted before my IEC visa expires, I can leave the country and wait for it no?
My question is what is better? Which LMIA is more likely to be approved, skilled or non-skilled? This is my only concern atm.

if you apply for AINP:
You must maintain a valid work permit throughout the AINP application and assessment process
You can apply without needing a LMIA to AINP-- there are some LMIA exemptions

(for EE: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/exempt.asp - but i think that your score is still to low for EE)
apply via AINP Employer-Driven Stream- Skilled Worker
http://www.albertacanada.com/opportunity/programs-and-forms/ainp-eds-employer-driven-stream.aspx
if you get the AINP nomination ask them for a R204(c) support letter from AINP
