LMIA

[sanagajala]

HI, I am a student in Canada I have done with my first semester and need to go for next sem but now I felt don’t want to for any more studies. I have a Employer who supports for LMIA Closed work permit but I am not sure how long will it take and how long Do I need to wait for to apply for PR. And do I have to quit the school if I apply for LMIA as soon as I apply or after approval. Please advise me. Thank you.

LMIAs often take 4-6 months to obtain. Once you have the approved LMIA - you will still have to apply for a closed work permit and wait for it to be approved. You should not quit school until you have an approved closed work permit.

Will a positive LMIA guarantee a Job in canada. If we receive a positive LMIA, what do they check for work permit to issue?

I'm applying from Outside Canada. I have work experience mismatch with the current offer. will it affect my work permit?
