I've been patient this long, I can deal with a slow process and rude person.
I just need the LMO now

Re: After LMO - what next for a work permit? (Ontario)
I would check with the immigration web site for all the documents you may need, I applied to London ( I was living in Holland at the time) and had to send police checks from every country I had lived in, resume for myself and my wife, trade certificates and references to prove I was qualified for the job.
It would be better to have documents with you and not be asked for them, instead of not having all the required paperwork an risking being refused.
Im not trying to scare you, I have heard it is no problem to get the WP at port of entry, I think it makes sense to avoid any delays because you didn't have the correct paperwork.
Best of luck

Will I need a police check for a work permit? I already did one and that was included with the PR visa application.

It will be an IT Sales and Support position.
I did have a police check done for the PR visa, but I didn't keep a copy of it.

Re: After LMO - what next for a work permit? (Ontario)
Hi,
The company with the job that I was going for has decided to apply for an LMO. Their lawyer is dealing with it. Should it be successful, said lawyer wants to charge me £2,100 to do the work permit. I've seen that the fee for a work permit is only $150.
What can the lawyer possibly offer that will guarantee the work permit in such a way to make the more than 10 fold higher fee worthwhile?
Am I better off just applying for the work permit myself and if so, what is the general process for Ontario and what can I do to improve my chances of being approved?
Thanks!

Omro, wish you luck for getting successful WP.
Can anyone guide that what are the possible ways to find a company that would be willing to offer apply for a LMO in order to hire foreign professionals.
I have been trying hard but till now have not found something concrete.
Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

The way I found my job was to visit the city that I wanted to move to and apply for jobs that I saw advertised. Being there allows you a greater chance of going to an interview. When I was applying back in the UK I heard no responses.
