Hi Friends, Need some advice here. One of my friend's prospective employer has filed for LMIA application since 11 weeks and there is no update.
The employer sent a followup request , even that it not responded. What are the options for the Employer to get some feedback on the application.
The Employer is in Ontario, is there any website to see what is the current processing time for LMIA Applications ?
My friend has NOC Code 2171 and Information System Analyst Role
 
Hi Guys,

I recently was contacted by a Software Consultancy in Canada, they interviewed me Technically and released the offer letter for the role of Java Full Stack developer. Wanted to check how you decide on the legitimacy of such an offer?

Any pointers to check it myself using their LIMA number or any alternate way?

thanks in advance.

Did they actually put $XX for salary or are you hiding the salary. A good indication of it being real or fake would be if the salary is ridiculously high (or low). Also, to say you will be paid in 24 Semi-Monthly payments is not how it is said in Canada. Usually said, you are paid Bi-Weekly. But again, unless you post the full offer here we cannot say for sure.
 
Yes i was hiding the salary. They are paying $80k per annum at 39$ per hour basis.

Offer letter is around 6 pages and i am afraid i dont have any way to send screenshot here. Let me paste the entire content?

It's looking like it might actually be a genuine offer, based solely on the information posted here. No ridiculous "sweeteners".
If they are expecting you to deal directly with IRCC and not via some "diplomat" or "barrister" etc, you might be ok.

I agree, the salary looks fitting with the job and no offers of free feeding, air tickets etc. The only thing that I think that is not the correct wording is for the 24 bi-monthly payments, but the rest seems fine in my opinion.
