Hi,
Is there option for upgrade LMO by any other job with same employer while the LMO as a low skilled pilot program.?
For example if anybody land in Alberta with low skill pilot program and he want to upgrade his job from starting time or after few months. ( is that possible ?)
Any more information about that.
Thanks & regards

Hi Bader,

I came to Alberta under low skill pilot work permit and after six months my employer decided to promote me to assistant manager.  They applied for a new LMO and when it came out I applied for change of status at CIC Vegreville.  It is easy as long as your employer wants to promote you.  Hope my experience help you.

Hi Bader,

It took 5 months for my LMO to get approved.  I guess it depends on how busy Service Canada is that why it took that long.  My employer had to show that they did the effort to hire an assistant manager locally first by advertising in the Canadian Job bank and newspaper ad as part of the requirements for LMO.  After the approval for LMO, it only took a month for Vegreville approve my new work permit.  Hope this will be informative for you.  Good luck again.
