Hi, I'm from New Zealand and participated in the iec from 13/8/2013-7/8/2014. I'm trying to immigrate to Canada. My employer when I was there has offered me a managerial position (that I also held when I was there) and is in the process of getting an LMIA. Unfortunately my skilled work experience wasn't enough due to the 1 year restriction on New Zealand working holiday visas at the time to make me eligible for the FSWP. If the LMIA gets approved am I able to apply for a temporary work visa to go back and gain the extra work experience, and possibly try to gain permanent residence from there?
Yes - if the LMIA is approved you will be able to apply for a work permit and return to Canada to try to qualify for one of Canada's immigration programs. Note that you do not need 1 year of Canadian experience to apply (i.e. this isn't mandatory). So if you have work experience from New Zealand - you may qualify to apply without returning to Canada to work.
Hi everyone!
