Hi guys,

I have been nominated under Alberta's PNP. My post-graduate work permit is however due to expire in 4 months and I have only recently submitted my PR application to Buffalo. After reading through online posts, I see that there could be hiccups in order to extend my work permit. I have mailed in my application package together with a photocopy of my Alberta nomination certificate and my employment contract following guidelines found here:

cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/extend-worker.asp

Additionally, I have not included any labour market opinion after reading this page:

cic.gc.ca/english/work/apply-who-permit.asp

where it states that no labour market opinion is needed for "Workers nominated by a province for permanent residence."

Based on my explanation of a need to extend my post-grad work permit in order to accommodate the time needed to process my PR, I wonder if this extension application will be successful?

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Cheers

I am not under AINP, but SINP. I did not have to include LMO and got a new work visa. They gave me two years work permit.
