Thank you guys.
Otherwise it doesn't work.I am pretty sure I know what I'm doing.I also know what it implies.There is no other option....and,as long I am not asked the LMO number and issue data,itmeans I have answered right.
You did not answer right. If you get seelcted you would have to decline the invitation as you are misrepresenting facts.
The instructions are clear, in order to get 600 points, if you are working in Canada, your work permit MUST be issued with an LMO/LMIA. It doesn't matter that your employer is named in your work permit, if you are LMIA exempt, your employer needs to apply for an LMIA to be considered arranged employment.
Please read carefully:
Can an employer who currently employs a temporary foreign worker (TFW) use Express Entry to support their application for permanent residence?
Yes. As long as the TFW is in Canada working under a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), you can offer them a permanent job to support their application for permanent residence. Your TFW would have to create an Express Entry profile and include their job offer information. A job offer supported by an LMIA will give a candidate enough additional points and be ranked high enough to be invited to apply at the next eligible round of invitations.
If you are considering permanently hiring a TFW and you do not have a positive LMIA for the job, you will first need to make every effort to try and find a Canadian or permanent resident to fill the job opportunity. You will need to meet LMIA requirements, including posting your job ad on Employment and Social Development Canada's (ESDC) Job Bank in addition to advertising in two other places. If you have done this and have been unsuccessful in filling your job opportunity, you can apply for an LMIA for the TFW through Service Canada. The TFW would then have to create an Express Entry profile, meet the minimum criteria and include their job offer information so they get enough additional points and be ranked high enough to be invited to apply at the next eligible round of invitations.
So you better change your profile and answer no to question about the LMIA.
