You don't need an extension - you just gotta sit tight til PR comes and not leave the country.

My company are willing to help with the LMO but didn't seem like they wanted to do the PNP and didn't want to push the issue as I am happy they got me over here. The way I see it is with the BOWP I have options, PNP I am tied to the company and that might not be so bad but then if you have seen others on here who have ended up having the rug pulled from under them not being tied to a company and having options can be good.

Now they have to re-advertise on this site for an another 4 weeks and then they can re-apply. Im massively gutted but hope that the second application is turned around in 6 weeks as this still puts me on track for an August arrival.

Fingers crossed.

We are trying not to get too excited yet as I guess if it is denied we won't be able to go unless they reapply and it get approved but not sure how long they will be willing to wait. I also know that his work place have never recruited in this way before, so are new to applying for LMOs and. HR were reluctant to go ahead with it to begin with.

Any insight into how the process went for you would be really helpful.

We are feeling in limbo at the moment but hoping it will all be worth it in the end and we will finally get to begin our Canadian life!

Thank you.

My husband's LMO got rejected last month based on advertising...we like you have been waiting in limbo since December!! It's soul destroying waiting around especially as we have 3 children ready to move over. His employer has reapplied last Monday after advertising for 4 weeks..so hopefully we will have a positive result this time because we aren't sure they will want to carry on applying for this. It's been a very long process so I hope you have better luck. Will keep you posted.
