Dual intent LMIA and high demand occupation (skilled trade) are both eligible for 10 days process. Hopefully next week...we are worried about the election.probably new goverment, new rules...

Hi Prashanth85

may I have some questions? Is your LMIA a dual intent or not? low wage or high? When did you get file number?
2 months is not too bad.hopefully you will get it soon.

Hopefully you will hear soon then fingers crossed. I wouldn't worry too much about the election from reading all the policies from the front runners it seems not too much will change you will probably have your lmia answer by then.
Mine is dual intent low wage hairstylist skilled workers not skilled trade applied on 10th July been 9 weeks now only have file number so far. Contacting my future employer for update next week.
So far in the previous lmo they never got any refusals this is the first time applying under lmia.

Thanks for your answer.
We applied for work permit extension (work permit for my husband, open wp for me, and study permit for our daughter) so we have only 50 days to send the LMIA to the immigration.
It is very scary for us.
We hope the best,also.

Are you the employer?

Which particular part of the form is unclear to you?
I am not but just helping the employer, the computation of the cap. Which is in the Svhedule E form. Currently on the work place it's only 2 Canadian and 2 under opw status. Is he qualified to get lmia? Before the moratorium he got one tfw but had finish the contract already. He is getting the tfw from Dubai. Is there any chance after she gets here in Canada she can apply for PR? Please help. Thanks

1. With the information you give, does the employer meet exemption 4 on the form?

2. Chances to apply for PR *if* LMIA & WP are approved? Yes, there's a chance, if the job is skill level A, B, or 0.

does someone knows, if its not a dual intent LMIA....can it be used to file a PR if at a later stage person for whom LMIA was approved decides to pursue PR (ofcourse within the validity duration of LMIA)?

Hi, I'm a pastry cook. Why Will it be difficult to obtain an LMIA for my work? I know that it is a required job in Canada.

I am not sure yet, if mine was dual intent or not?

Also, I checked with my employer about the status and he said " That the application is in queue and we are still waiting to hear back"

Not sure what inference to draw from the above statement.

Anyone with ideas??
