Job offer point

[Yommy01]

Hi
I'm working with open work permit and applying for CEC and I did not get any points for job offer. Do I need LMIA to get the point, or I'm doing something

Yes - you need an LMIA to get the job offer points.

Yes - you need an LMIA to get the job offer points.

How long does it take to get this? And can I get it on my own or I need to involve my employer?

It typically takes 4-6 months end to end. No - you cannot obtain one. Your employer has to apply. It's quite a long and involved process that takes quite a bit of work for your employer.

also, doesn't an open permit mean you're ineligible for a valid job offer?

No, but it does require an LMIA.
