Hi,
I think you are right.u have to apply for temporary resident visa as well with the work permit as far as urself,spouse and children are over the age of 18 or 22.
The reason why i am saying this is that,i have just applied in LONDON for my work permit and temporary resident outside canada because i got my LMO for Licensed Practical Nurse in Manitoba.
Please,do you know if i can use the same LMO to apply for FEDERAL SKILLED WORKER VISA(permanent resident)???

Hope to hear from u soon.Thanks.
