Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
No we have never been further West than Ontario so it will all be a great adventure for us. My Mum has just told me that there is more crime in Regina than anywhere else in the whole of Canada - so that takes some beating dont it!!! Will keep you posted on how the reccie went.

I thought that Winnipeg was the worst place. We have friends that live in Regina and when we were there we felt safe, I know that was 10 years ago, but we didn't feel scared at all. Regina I thought would be too small to have the most crime.
Does your mom want you to go, not an ulterior motive there??
If I hear anything I will let you know.

Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
This is exactly the problem - I have had a lot of grief from both her and my only sister and they were both at my house yesterday for Sunday lunch and were ganging up on me. We were out for a walk at the time and I felt like pushing both of them into the river!! But restrained myself. We will find out for ourselves on Thursday!
So I know what you are going thru, why can't people just be very sad that you are leaving but on the other hand wish you every success and happiness. I wish you that, you have ONE LIFE - LIVE IT !

Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
Hi guys,
I am currently in Calgary and have changed employer. They have me on work permit exempt status until September. My LMO application was submitted mid April and still nothing, I am not expecting anything until mid July and I live and work here....so there are no shortcuts....FYI the WP application is now taking 4 weeks plus, so not only do you have to wait for 12-15 weeks for the LMO you now need to add another 4 before the WP is issued..!!!:curse:
Sun is shining here and the temp is mid 20's so off for a few beers at the neighbours.........
Cheers

Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
When you get your positive LMO from HRDSC why dont you just drive down to Coutts and cross into the US and go back to Canada applying for the WP on the way back in ? It's a POE isnt it ?

Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
Thanks Gaynor,
Already done the coutts, seagrass run to change my WP, if an issue I would do again, but I can still work and play whilst application is in so no problems. Just wanted to give an idea to people how long things are now taking. Especially those not visa exempt, who cannot get WP at POE....
20 degrees yesterday, sun shining blue sky and very hot. Thunderstorms today and cold....typical as we just spent the afternoon cowering in the trees at my son's football team end of season BBQ at Lake Sundance, the deer didn't seem to mind our company though.. !!!!!
Cheers

Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
Hello everyone
I am new in this forum.
I was wondering if you will have an update on LMO timeline in Edmonton.
my LMO has been sent in 2nd april and still no answer although 12 weeks are over.
My employer never contact them to have any update.
they heard that sometimes when you call them it can delay even more the processing.
Is it true ?
Did your employer contact Service Canada? Did you notice any delay because of that ?
Thank you for your help
Coco

Re: HRSDC LMO Timeline
welcome to the forum coco...
In my case, my employer called Service Canada several times to follow-up and I guess it has no impact on processing time....the dispute on my wage did make a delay on my LMO....
Please fill-up the Questionaire so newbie like you can have an idea.
gryph and scott are on the same boat with you, they are still waiting for their LMO in Alberta.
Thanks
Erick
