Re: I'm so sad!!!!
We arrived 10 weeks ago today, and everything was going so well up to about 4 weeks ago - My oh was let go from the company that brought him over.
We thought that was it and were preparing to go home - anyway another company stepped in at last minute and pulled out all the stops to apply for lmo - this came back the other day, great we thought, until we and company realised it was for only 8 Weeks!!! company were told though they could extend and it should'nt be a problem???
Anyway in meantime i have started my dream job and kids are finally settled in school, all we want to do is try and make ago of things here!
So now we all have to go to the border and get new wp that will be only valid for 8 weeks, and if they dont extend that is the end of the dream
I just feel so sad about everything, we are actually just thinking about giving up and going home....

I was thinking of trying to move to Canada through a work permit and was willing to pay a consultant to arrange as our permanent resident application was taking so long but all of a sudden we got our 90 day letter so I didnt go down that route. One of the things that attracted me was that our permanent resident application was fast tracked if we were there on arranged employment.
Have you put in a permanent resident application and if so can you look into getting it fast tracked?

wow you ahve come so far, dont let it get tio you now. if you both love your jobs - i assume you have a STWP? can you not get an LMO yourself and be the princiapal applicant? you are in the country legally so it should be do-able. got for the WP and hope they can extend 
good luck
