Default I would be grateful for some advice AGAIN!

So i have currently hired a immigration lawyer to help me with what i will call my journey on trying to get a work permit for Vancouver. I decided not to take up the services of Willis Brazolot as they are far too expensive and all they really wanted was my money.

I hired my lawyer as my old job in Vancouver were willing to bring me back over with a ELMO permit, but we have hit a problem with there HR department who havent said no yet but dont seem to keen on paying for my flights or med insurance for the elmo which obviously causes me to go back to square one. I still hold hope that they will pay it but not very likely.

So i am writing and pleading that someone on here was sponsored or going to be sponsored by a company through a elmo as that is the fastest route to get back working in Vancouver?

Basically for the last 7 nights i have spent the best part of 4 hours a day applying for jobs where either they cant bring me over on a elmo or they have not got back to me yet? Maybe something might come from that but not likely, i seem to be losing faith and i really dont want to.


I have found a few placement agencies online:

Who say they can hire foreign workers so i was wondering if anyone had used theses companies before and if they were any good?

Thank You all for listening.

try there.You don't have to pay a placement agency to find a job in Canada.
If you have a good work experience, a nice resume you'll find someone who is willing to go through the LMO process.

Can I ask what work you do? We are here on TWP but would not recommend company. Don't want to mention the name because we have not got PR yet. If you want to PM me I can tell you who they are.
