Hi
I hear you buddy, what I do not understand is what do we deserve it for? most of us , if not all, are actually successfully integrated into Canadian society, hardworking, speaking English, have a Canadian education, friends, life here for god sake. Yeah, they may be right when they say "nice guys finish last"
Tell us what your lawyer ll say,

I'm very sorry to hear that EEdreams15 :( Did you apply wp extension yet? I've read some people on the forum saying they might go on Visitor or student visa . Do you have any such plans?

I plan to apply for a work permit extension this week. Even though I know it will get rejected, I will apply anyways so that I can work under implied status to reach the 1 year cap for CEC. After my WP extension is rejected I will apply to restore my status and transition to a visitor's visa. I will apply under EE and hope and pray like crazy that the cut off will be less than 450. There is a glimmer of hope, though it is faint.

Thanks for your sympathies! I hope AINP gets their act together so that other people don't have to go through this as well.

Sorry to hear your story mate!!!
How come you got left out november 2013 applicant while some ppl from december under EDS-IGC got nomination in september??it really frustrating!!!

I don't know why I was left out and yes, it really is frustrating but I cannot begrudge the people who got their nominations even though they applied after me. Everyone is in a tough spot and we would all love to immigrate here but it seems like for some of us it maybe a dream that will not come to fruition.

Hi! Be careful with that. I was planning to do the exact same thing before surprisingly receiving my nomination in December (after less than 6 months). Thing is, is kind of a gray area whether that experience will count or no if you get your extension rejected. Some say you can, some say you can't. CIC page implies that it does counts, but apparently in some cases it hasn't count if CIC thinks you applied for an extension knowing already it would get rejected.

I say go for it, but put as many paperwork as you can in that application (to make it more legit), and apply on paper of course! It will give you a couple of extra months.
 
Hello Guys

I applied for PR under CEC around 20 Dec 2014, and looks like the cap is reached so i would be expecting my application to be returned soon. I have more than 1 year of work exp as an IT help desk Analyst. I have a full time permanent job which is not supported by LMIA. My work permit expires on 29th August 2016. AINP processing time is 25 months. What should be the best way to get PR now. I guess i am in big trouble

somebody told me that theres a new rule that will be implemented by the end of feb. she said it has something to do with express entry for semi skilled/ low skilled. she said her agent told her. i dont know if it is true. im so depressed and disappointed now.
is this rule you taking about February 9, 2015 —

Employer compliance system and fee

Starting February 21, 2015, employers hiring foreign nationals who are exempt from the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) process will be required to submit information about their business or organization, the Offer of Employment form, and pay a fee to Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

As of that date, a foreign national who is exempt from the LMIA process will not be able to get an employer-specific work permit if their employer has not submitted the required information and paid the fee before the work permit application is submitted.

The employer compliance fee has been set at $230 and must be paid online. The fees collected will offset the cost of introducing robust employer compliance activities featuring inspections of thousands of employers.

When an inspection finds that an employer is non-compliant, the employer could face an administrative monetary penalty, a ban from hiring foreign workers and, in serious cases, a criminal investigation and prosecution. The adoption of this system will mean that all employers, whether they are hiring LMIA-exempt foreign nationals or temporary foreign workers through the LMIA process that has determined that there are no Canadians available for the job, will face the same level of scrutiny in their hiring and treatment of foreign workers.

The employer compliance fee does not apply to employers hiring foreign nationals who have open work permits. Open work permits allow the holder to work for any Canadian employer.

For what? Each test?
You have to check on the test specific website. But I guess is between 250-300 depends on test?
