Waiting for PR, but my Post Graduate Work Permit is expiring soon!

I am starting to worry about my friend now.

This is his case:  His 3 years PGWP is expiring in late January 2012.
He has applied (mid October) to renew his work permit without going through the LMO process.
He was 100% sure that it (LMO) is not needed.
I shall let you guys know what kind of feed back he gets from Vegreville.

Why is he 100% sure?  Does he work in an LMO exempt occupation?

 @ kvisa and others who were planning to apply for LMO , did your habe your employers apply for the LMO and if yes was it approved. Please let me know I am in a similar situation and I am self employed too. I am not sure If i can apply for LMO through my own company. Please help.
