Hello everybody
People who has either a nomination from a province or a valid job offer, will be granted 600 points, it is as simple as that, no need for confusion. If your doubts are in terms of the LMIA, then you need to verify with your current and/or potential employer the status of this, because it is the employer the one required to fulfill this.
If you are already working in Canada under a PGWP, and you have a permanent job offer to continue working, PLEASE verify with your employer the status of the LMIA process. It does not affect the points, but you need to get this done in order to apply for PR under the FSW program.
There is no minimum threshold, the points you obtain out of your profile, are used to determine your position in a list, and yes, if you do not have a job offer or have been nominated by a province then you and I are way down the list. But here is the good news, if you have a good resume, and your credentials and language are within the expectations of a potential employer, then you need to promote yourself within the new job bank, and here is where the difference starts because employers will look into your profile end determine if you are what they are looking for, including the provinces. Here is when we have the opportunity for obtaining a job offer.
Hope this helps
