Hello Folks,

I have my brother (28 years old) just came as visitor to Canada last week. He has 5 years experience in IT and has master degree along with IELTS. I heard some people applied for open work permit without LMIA sponsorship.

They applied through paper based application and fill out the fallowing form:
IMM 5710 E : Application to change conditions, extend my stay or remain in Canada as a worker.

Do you guys think it is relevant? Please advise me. Thank you in advance

You seem to be trying to move a lot of your family to Canada through various programs in a short amount time. This is likely to lead to lead to refusals at a certain point and concern that none of the applications are genuine.
