Hi I was wondering if skill level b occupation can apply under arranged employment? LMIA won't be an issue. I am on a 1 year contract expiring this December. I know it states I need a full time offer, if I get the offer from another employer would it be an issue? Your help is appreciated.
Arranged employment

Hi
f you are currently working in Canada on a work permit and
Your work permit was issued by CIC based on a positive labour market opinion from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC),
Your work permit is valid when you apply for a permanent resident visa, and
Your current employer has made an offer to give you a permanent full-time job if your application is successful.
The offer from another employer would not qualify the OP for arranged employment.scylla said:

I have question, I was on PGWP and since it was expired I had to apply for LMO and I got it. Since I already been employed permanently (I had the employment letter says that I work permanently since 2012). Do I need to provide the permanent job offer. Can't apply for CEC since my NOC is no longer applicable (NOC B, accounting)
Thanks.
Thanks.
Appreciate your swift response people.
Can't my current employer be anybody? I will explain my situation in detail below:
I started with a job in October, 2013 but I was employed through an agency (pro count). I left this job in December, 2013 and got hired directly by another company for a 1 year contract. Both were skill level b.
Question 1
FSW - have at least one year of continuous full-time (or an equal amount in continuous part-time) paid work experience within the last ten years in the primary occupation you state in your application.
I have been employed as skill level b employee since October. Do they need me to be employed with a single employer for one year or a single occupation which would be skill level b noc code?
Definition of occupation from canada immigration- An occupation is defined as a collection of jobs, sufficiently similar in work performed to be
grouped under a common label for classification purposes. A job, in turn, encompasses all the
tasks carried out by a particular worker to complete their duties.
Question 2
Arranged employment point 2 extract- your current employer has made a permanent job offer based on you being accepted as a skilled worker.
My current employer can be another employer who offered me a full time position? If I get another job offer by October or December, 2 things will happen:
1. I complete 1 year in a single occupation (noc skill level b).
2. My current employer which would be another company has offered me a full time position.
Does this make sense? Or did I confuse everyone?

Please provide as much evidence as you can of your past, present and future(if applicable) job experience/offers. But, always keep in mind that the reference letters for the job should closely match the duties as per the NOC that you feel it is closely aligned to.coldplay said:
Specifically, the job letter should mention the number of hours per week, the duties (as per the NOC), benefits ( if any ) , your duties if you held multiple positions within the company, period of employment, business cards of the referee and yourself, and should mention the words "permanent" or "full time" in case you have such an offer, and ofcourse your gross annual salary ( or salary in that term )

As already specified by a fellow forum member, this is fine.
More details on the CIC website :
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/hire/offers.asp
Specifically the lines :
A qualifying job offer must:
for Federal Skilled Worker Program:
be permanent, non-seasonal and full time, and
be Skill Type 0 (managerial occupations) or Skill Level A (professional occupations) or B (technical occupations and skilled trades) on the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC) list
You may want to refer to more details about the process as per the website. But, rest assured you can apply under skill level B.
The best place to refer is to follow :
a ) The official guide for the program you're applying to
b ) The ministerial instructions for that specific program ( The usual industry jargon - better left for the lawyers to comprehend
)If you have any further questions, please let me know.
Thank you for your response Rahul. My initial question was answered by a fellow member but not the question after that. I will re-write it in simple terms.
Does the 1 year experience in level b occupation have to be with a single employer or can be with 2 employers? I was working with pro count agency from October to December 2013. Does experience from agency count?
The current employer stated in FSW program has to offer me a full time position. Can this employer be someone other than the employer I completed my 1 year experience with? For example I was working with X employer (got the job through pro count) from October to December. Then employer Y offered me a 1 year contract in December. If employer Z offers me a full time position would I still qualify for this program? Or employer Y has to offer me a full time position. Appreciate your response guys.

No - the 1 year of experience does not have to be with a single employer.mountain123 said:
To qualify under arranged employment, you need to have an approved LMIA/LMO. The same employer who has obtain the approved LMIA/LMO must have also made you a permanent offer of full time employment. In other words, these two criteria must be satisfied by the same employer & job - it can't be two different employers and job.
