Hello Team,

I am a software professional and I recently completed 6 months contract in Toronto . My Work permit will expire in Dec 2016. I love living here and I want to get a PR/PNP as soon as possible. I went through all PNP program and Express Entry points. In all cases, I need minimum 1 year job experience and it is difficult to get a full time ( I have been searching full time since a year now).
Which province can the least turn around time for PNP? Do i need LMIA for PNP too?

I am considering PEI and Nova Scotia but Finding jobs there is difficult. People are travelling to BC for pnp.. I am confused and dont want to waste my Permit time..Please help :'(
 
Just build up the work experience through contracts (40 hours a week preferably), until you have your 1 year work experience. Make sure you're able to get reference letters to support that work experience. You're halfway there. Once you get that experience you can apply for express entry and start looking at PNP as well. I did Nova Scotia Experience: Express Entry PNP and that took 2-3 weeks to get nomination, however, you have to have 1 year work experience in nova scotia. It's really tailor-made for PGWP holders as there was many of us working here who couldn't get the 200 form from our employers so that was a god-send. There's also a 750 applicant cap.

Keep building up the experience though.that's the most important thing. The 1 year experience will open up the opportunities for you.
 
Thank you very much for the reply. Do I need 1 year of experience in Nova Scotia Demand: Express Entry also?? Is there a Cap for it too? and Does PEI PNP also want 1 year of experieince? I have heard it is just 6 months experieince required. Presently, I am not getting any replies for 3 months from any field job so wanted to inquire about other options.

Thanks in advance ;D ;D

You don't need 1 year of experience for NS Demand..however that stream has been open for a while and there's been a LOT of applicants.Don't know about PEI PNP...you'll have to look that up.
 
Is there a way i can track the number of seats left for NS PNP? When will the new CAP start for pnp( in case 750 applicants are full for 2015, when will they start accepting the next 750 caps? Jan 2015?) Is there any change suspected in NS for 2016 CAP?

In which province can I apply for PNP without a job offer? I am 26 years old ,I have IELTS academic score of 7 and have studied 2 year program in ON, Canada.

Thank you once again bro! ;D :D
