Thanks for the replies to both Namaste & pk2ca. My guess (and I could be wrong) that, if I did not receive an invitation to apply (ITA) the first time, my chance of getting one in the future would be very low just by remaining in the pool. Two more questions if I may - I would really...

A lot of things announced so far on the Express Entry (to begin Jan 2015) are still quite vague, to the point where I feel the CIC has yet to finish the final touch on the new system. My biggest question though is the following: **Once the current immigration system is converted to the...

I had been working for an employer as a semi-skileld worker for the last 1 year, and I was recently offered a skilled worker job by the SAME employer and have an approved LMO. DO I have an implied status with my employer - that is, can I work with the employer under the previous work permit...

Question from my friend: My friend has a skilled job (Cook) work permit, and her husband works with an open permit based on her work permit. She's changing her employer and applying for WP before her current WP expires - so she understands she can't be working until she gets her new work...

I have a friend working on working holiday visa. His employer is willing to give him a job via LMO. Question: Once his employer gets LMO, can he apply his work permit at Vegreville like a temporary foreign worker? Or Is working holiday not considered a TFW? Thus, does he have to leave and...

Please help on my friend's case: She is legally separated from her husband for more than 2 years. She's on a work permit in Canada, he's in Korea. She's about to apply for her PR, and she does not know if she has to select "legally separated" or "married" in the new IMM0008 Generic. He has no...

I have since obtained my PR (earlier this year). As for the implied status, it does not apply to the new employer. You have to wait until the work permit approval with the new employe to start working. Good luck!

Can a mom accompanying her children (son 23 in university, daughter 18 in high school) extend her visitor visa beyond her daughter's 18 year and into university? I heard after your child turns 18 you can't apply visitor as an accompanying parent. Please advice. Thanks

My friend has been asking me this question: He has taken medical exam for his new work permit in Edmonton in early Feb. He has not heard anything yet. He is quite concerned. Is there anyway he can find out? Any phone number to call? Some people say you could even walk up to a kiosk at Service...

PMM, Thank you always for your confident and valued input. ed-K

I need expert opinion from some of our distinguished members. Just got a new LMO from a new employer for a housekeeper position in East Alberta. Can I go to the US border and re-enter Canada to apply for work permit there? Or should I be applying by mail to Vegreville? Or are both options okay...

I have my AINP approved early this year - then I applied for CIC PR (under AINP's Strategic Recruitment Stream as a journeyman welder) in June 2010. I got laid off in August from my previous employer (my work permit was valid until May 2011), and got an offer this month from another employer as...

Asking on behalf of a friend - He's a full time ESL student with a study permit. His wife has an open work permit linked to his study permit, and her job (day care teacher) is eligible for AINP (AB provincial nominee). Can she apply AINP with an open work permit (which did not require an LMO)...
