Hi have you considered AINP under employer driven stream?

ricoceliks,

The only option you have is the AINP-Employer Driven stream. Unfortunately, your position as a food service supervisor is no longer eligible under CEC which took effect on November 9, 2013. Cooks and FSS are the 2 common positions that are no longer part of CEC category. I was also a FSS but already applied under AWE category.

Let's just hope that there will be a new programs this year where you're eligible in your current position. Just also try to ask your employer If he's willing to put you to employer driven stream because effective April 1, 2015 all foreign workers who did not have their PR application submitted will be subject to the 4-year cumulative duration limit.

You could have been qualified under AINP SRS-Alberta Work Experience if you are in Alberta.
You could have applied by yourself and don't need your employer's help.
Your last recourse is the Skilled employer driven if you are in working in Alberta.
I don't know about other provinces.

Thanks for your help guys..., but unfortunately I can't apply under employer driven stream AINP category.. I have asked Rey merindo at Mercan ltd.. I have to be a business management graduate or HRM and or that all trainings I have is related to food and restaurant business...have no idea if this true...
And it keeps me not trying to take chances under this category, because I never had any experience in restaurant settings, I just have it here in edmonton for 5 yrs. working..(burger king)..and when my employer decided to promote me so that I can apply my PR under CEC - FSS and after a year,news came.. it's not qualified according to new rule..
And it so happen that I have no college diploma...

Pls. Give me an advice, if someone ever did the employer driven stream AINP category w/o trainings or course that is not related to food industry...

My employer is willing to help...

Thanks...

He (representative) is talking nonsense, the old requirement about the specific courses was lifted by AINP last year. With your 5-yr experience in burger king in AB and your work permit is under NOC B occupation, that is enough for you to be qualified under the skilled employer-driven category. There's no cap nor deadline for the application yet so go to Alberta immigration website and look for the requirements. You hurry up since this category might close anytime.
Good luck to you.

thanks for the info goldbank,.. but I just have one question my work permit dosen't say NOC B but only written as Food Service Supervisor, where can I see if I am NOC B.. and also I try to write NOC 6311 in the candidate declaration form it won't work so I used the 6211 instead, do you think it's fine..

you can find NOC 6311 is under Skill Level B here

Gold bank thanks, you challenge me to start it( just need someone to push my button).
I am done complying with all my documents and with my employer's help too. ( some forms from employer also been complied).

still doubtful though with this, that skilled B occupations usually requires college education or apprenticeship training

but I am hoping my Education will work out just fine, as I only have high school diploma and a Transcript in my college for a year (non-college degree).

with god's help, I hope everything will work fine.

might send all documents this week.

@ rico
We are on the same boat. My lawyer told me that the CEC for Food Service Supervisor may re-open on November this year when the pause for FSS may be lifted fingers crossed!! And I hope AINP will re-open for self nomination on our category this July

Be positive.
