Hey there,

I just have a quick general question. I got the file number from my CEC application last night. I currently have a positive LMO and work for a media company and my work permit expires in June 2016.

However there have been recent lay offs in our company because its going through some restructuring which is making me very worried. If in case I do get laid off what options do I have if I have already sent my application for the canadian experience class. I know that I can stay here till my work permit expires but how will go about surviving without a job? Its almost close to impossible for companies to Issue LMO's. I got lucky with my LMO because i was on a Post grad work permit where my company helped me with the transition.

As I know in order for me to apply a bridge work permit my currently one need to be expired within 4 month. Is making a LMO my only option to work again? Or should i apply for this bridge work permit anyway and explain to the CIC I got a lay off and show them my employee record?

Many many thanks!
