Any updates guys..its 7 months done after file no recieved..losing hope
Same, nothing yet! Must be a heap of us Sep/Oct applications stuck in limbo. It does my head in, I can't fathom what takes this long to decide.

It's been 22 business days since they asked for name and contract with a 7-10day timeframe given so go figure!

Our sanity is being tested for sure! Just want to get on with our lives.

I apply for lmia in Calgary last Dec, exactly date is last Sep.
How long does it take to issue ?
My job place seemed to be inspected by SC this April. The officer said, it wii be issued after inspection.
It has passed 2 months since last words.
How is the thing going on Calgary Area?
How is everybody? Still same as me?

Just curious! & I'd like to know how the circumstance is.


Thanks

That seems like an awfully long time to me.

Also, why would you chose any other application apart from DUAL INTENT LMIA? if its so much quicker, surely it makes sense to go this approach

(wish i had known about this when i first applied, im not sure it was implemented though)

Hi seniors. just need some advice regarding lmia. My cousin have been offered a job in Edmonton, and the employer is willing to process lmia. But the problem that I can see is that the number of employee working there is as low as just 2 people. Do you think lmia will still be positive? Please give me advice. Thanks. I just wanna make sure that it'll be positive coz I want to be with my cousin here.

Bad news.... My boss's application got refused. Noc 1221. Application received at beginning of March and got interviewed last week. 5 months waiting of nothing..... My boss mentioned that the agent who was on the phone with him was very unfriendly and aggressive. He didn't even give my boss a chance to explain our situation. All he said is that 'we have a data base showing that you don't need a FW to fill this job, blalala...' He was more likely to give a call to INFORM you that you will not get approved rather than hear and interview.
Anyway I don't know what to do now... Is that possible that my boss reapply the same position again? :'( :'( :'(

Hi,

Applied LMIA last year not under express entry.

Have an answer from CIC states " This is request to your response submitted under the access to information act received at employment and social development Canada on October 05, 2015 and which reads as follows

your application status will be known by October 28,2015"

Will I get my application status on same date or it get delay further?

Thanks
