Hi,Hello guys,
Lets make this group valuable by communicating here regarding all issues related to CEC-Postdoc, for those who submitted their applications or even those intending to to submit soon.
best of luck
Hi,
Good Idea!
I have applied under CEC-Inland:
AOR: July 30, 2018
Medical Passed: Aug 22
Status: IP2
Had >2 years of experience as a Posdoc.
Hey buddy,
glad to find someone herei can see you are making a fast progress, wish you to get your PR sooner than you expect
Thanks, the same for you! Could you tell me what your status is?
Wondering why didn't you apply once you finished your first year of postdoc experience?
Hahaa… The only reason that I have for you: "I was silly"
Cheers
Okay, got it. hope you all the best.
I delayed submitting my application as i still need three months to complete one full year of experience with my current contract. So i guess this is happening in Jan![]()
Thanks thats comfort.Hello Jee,
we are absolutely in the same boat, i just need few months to get one year in my hands beside two years extension. I strongly believe your offer would be sufficient as a guarantee that you are having a job for one year upon getting your PR even it is not mentioned latterly in the offer.
lets share and communicate here for goods.
Just wondering why the university need to issue a new LMIA exemption as postdoc is already LMIA exempted by default?
on the other hand, i think maybe it will be better to have your new offer issued immediately after you complete your first year or near the end!
Best
Thanks thats comfort.
Well postdocs are exempted by default, but for every postdoc offer the employer i.e. universities have to get approval for LMIA exemption thru cic employment portal, as they share employment offer no. with us, which goes into our work permit application form. So this prestep they have to do every time for specific duration of contract.
In my case, they did initially for 1 yr now they need to redo for 2 yrs i.e for renewal. Its must as previous one is expiring along my WP.
2ndly about offer after PR, it is not possible in my scenario, as my TRV and WP both expiring in Jan,2019, instead contract at uni is concluding in March-19, as I joined in Mar-18, thats conclusion of 1 yr by Mar-19, only after that i wud be eligible for cec inland. But prior to that i must should have valid work permit i.e. the new one. So i am applying for renewal so that before march-19 i shud have new wp of 2 yrs to go fot pr route.....
so u sure about this 2 yrs extension letter would suffice to get 50 points in cec as valid of offer?
Perfect, thats what I wanna hear, logically i was also inclined towards this argument, but on forum read conflicting resonses.ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE.. in fact, HR will not satisfy mentioning the statement of " this offer will be valid for at least one year after getting the PR" it seems not relative to the offer. on the other hand, the CIC would clearly realize that you have two years contract in addition .. POSIITVE
Perfect, thats what I wanna hear, logically i was also inclined towards this argument, but on forum read conflicting resonses.
As you are right HR doesn't state that but they always love to mention 'based upon funding and performance' stuff, as it's how it is the postdoc posts...
Thanks man! Im relaxed now....still anyone who gone thru same route, would certify, that would b great to hear!
Will keep you all posted how it goes further...thanks
Well HR does that if u r outland and u need WP to continue postdoc in canada.....so in ur case initially, did HR sent u offer letter and also the employment # something with A#####....as that goes in WP application form, and when u apply for WP, CIC matches ur profile with posted LMIA application from employer side....so HR does that for sure for evrry lmia exemption offerThe same scenario is exactly fitting me here ..
Just confused with your mentioning the exempted LMIA? i guess the HR will apply for this exemption automatically without our following up as it is required by CIC. i never did for me first postdoc one year offer!!
Yes thanks after mar-19, i will have ready the following ones:Forgot to mention;
you may need three letters
1- your current offer letter
2- Supporting letter/experience letter from your manager
3- The new offer
i am working on these all
