Hey guys. If my grammar is bad, sorry about it. I'll improve it anyways.
I have a Canada plan. Now I'm working at fast food restaurant. My plan is I'll be shift manager in 8 9 month or maybe 1 years. By time doing that I'll improve my IELTS to 7.5 or 8.0. Anyways,
Can I immigrate to Canada with that way?
Oh and for getting more CRS Point, I'll study an University in Canada. But the problem is I have to find LMIA supported jobs. But can I? Any fast food restaurant %100 hire me as a shift manager? Because I need to know that, Im stressed so much.

There is no guarantee you will be able to find an LMIA supported job as a shift manager. So no, it is certainly not 100%.

You haven't provided your full profile including age and level of education. However based on the information you have provided so far, there is a good chance your points will be too low to be selected for PR.

Most likely you will need to learn French fluently as well to have some chance

It's generally quite difficult to secure LMIA supported jobs. Recent changes have made it more challenging for employers to get approved LMIAs and there is talk of further reductions in temporary work permits.

None of us can tell you if your plan will work or not. It might or it might not. It's certainly not guaranteed.

You should continue to attend school and complete more schooling in your home country.

I don't know. These two days my motivation is drop to 0. I don't want to cancel my Canada plan. But my inner voice tells me to do it and stay on home. I'll study university in Canada.

Unless your goal is to come to Canada for a year or two with no intention of remaining in Canada you must have a realistic plan for a pathway to PR. Your current plan may have been feasible a few years ago but it has become much harder to secure PR. Unless you come from a wealthy family who can afford to support you for 4+ years of international tuition and living costs it makes no sense to come to Canada without any post secondary education. To secure PR these days most need 2 post secondary degrees. At least one degree is should be completed in your home country. It makes much more sense to do a masters or a post grad college degree in Canada.

Firstly for university: it's makes more sense to study in Canada since it's give more CRS points. My plan was coming to Canada with skilled jobs, after working 1 or 2 years,studying part time university,and improving english more and more. With that my CRS point will be 503-550. Which is mean I would get ITA.

In that case you need to come to Canada as an international student on a study permit. If you haven't done so already, start researching this process now. You or your parents will need them show significant savings for this to be possible.

You cannot come on a work permit and study part time. If you come on a work permit, then you are not allowed to complete a university degree or college diploma at the same time. If you want to study, you need a study permit and you need to be studying full time.

Suggest you spend more time researching to understand what the rules do and do not allow. What you have outlined above is not possible under the rules.

I know it's outside of rules. But I think I can get work permit. Or I can even leave the job and can get study permit.

Suggest you spend some time researching how much you will need to show in savings in order for a study permit to be approved. Good luck.
