Hi, do you have to have proof of funds (or indeed any funds) for PNP under CEC if you already live and work in Ontario or is it just for FSW? Thanks

Sorry, I am confused. What does your report from WES say. As I understood it they contacted CIC directly and then points are awarded. Can you be a bit more clearer. How many points have you been awarded in your profile?

On your VISA it will state an LMIA or LMO (The old format of LMIA) number. If you have this you should enter it in your EE application. I am not sure how your employer can add this to your VISA if its not stated. Maybe someone else can help out on this issue.

In order to receive the extra 600 points you will require an LMIA.

Hi, you dont have to get your education assessed if your points are high enough without them, say 350+. If you need the points I suggest you call the examination board and see if they can help out. I know in the UK they keep all records and you can request copy's. You will need to get them...

This is what is frustrating about this new system. People are paying consultants lots of money and not getting the correct service. EE is very new and everyone is learning the process even Lawyers and consultants don't fully understand the system. You cannot enter any scores into the system. If...

Where do you see the estimated date?

Your company can still apply for PNP. Once granted you apply very much like the old CEC way, lots of paperwork and the time is about 17 months. If you are granted a nomination you can easily get an extension to your work permit to cover the processing time. Its only PNP for EE that is not up and...

but : Provinces and territories will also continue to be able to make nominations under their regular (“base”) PNPs outside of Express Entry via a paper application process. what's this mean ? The way you apply for PR under PNP has not changed. Once you get selected for PNP you have to...

What is MPNP?

Wow, I was going to say that your employer could apply for a supporting LMIA and i was going to post a link. I just checked the website again and they have amended it. Look Note: The processing fee does not apply to employers choosing ONLY to support a foreign national's application for a...

Hi, you need either an LMIA or a PNP nomination to get the extra 600 points.

Thanks for the quick response. Any idea how long it may take? Am i right in saying around 17 months from when they receive the completed application.

Unfortunately your employer would have to advertise your job in three different places with one of them being the job bank for 4 weeks. Then they would have to justify why they didn't give the job to a Canadian citizen or PR holder. They may also be required to show how they plan to rectify this...

Hi all, My company have been discussing whether to apply for an LMIA or PNP (Ontario) nomination. After taking advise from an immigration lawyer they have decided to apply for a PNP nomination. My question is this. Is applying for PR with a PNP nomination still done the old way through CIC...

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but having a Canadian baby means nothing to CIC. I have a 5 month old son born in Canada and if we don't get permanent residency they would effectively kick him out of his own country.

Hiring Skilled Workers and Supporting their Permanent Residence The Government of Canada believes that foreign workers can help employers meet their labour needs when Canadians and permanent residents are not available. As part of this process the government supports higher-skilled foreign...

Hi guys, i am in the same position and i am very interested about the "free" LMIA. I have to say this is the first time i have heard of this and i have done a lot of research. I followed the link but did not see any reference to a free alternative. How did you come by this information and do you...

My employer is now talking about applying for PNP for my position. Does anybody know if you receive PNP and you get permanent residence if you can only live within that province? I ask this because if it limits where i can live i would rather go down the LMIA route as i would like to be able to...

Nobody can guarantee that they will given a positive LMIA result. Even if your employer does hire an immigration firm to complete the application the final decision is down to a person in CIC and if they are having a good day or not. Even if you have 1200 points and an ITA its still down to a...
