Re: Education Qualifications

It does not make any sense to me that you would be requirted to have all non-Canadian qualifications assessed, since the regulations that have been published award points on the basis of your...

Re: DONOT use the legal immigration service <name removed>

Re: IMM5490 Q27 - Dates of cohabitation

I would recommend putting in the date you sign the form, or hand-writing in "present" rather than leaving it blank.

Re: Temporary Working Visa - Media Industry

It does seem you would need a work permit. The one exception would be work without a work permit under Regulation 186(g):

Re: Sending Medical and Police certificate later..

Hi,

Thank you, siouxie. If I appeared to belittle someone then I am really sorry, it was not done on purpose. In fact, it does not seem to me that CIC bestow any particular benefits on me because...

Re: Sending Medical and Police certificate later..

Thanks for that.

Actually I did recommend that police clearance(s) should be sent with the application if they are available. I have simply taken some time and trouble to answer the OP's...

Re: Sending Medical and Police certificate later..

I was in fact referring to the OP's outland common-law application

Re: Sending Medical and Police certificate later..

Well it is up to the OP what they want to do . Submission of police certificates at a later date is allowed. I suppose the real point is the OP asked if police and medical certificates can be sent...

Re: Sending Medical and Police certificate later..

No, I don't recommend that you send the police clearance(s) to Mississauga if they are not sent with the original application. Send them to the visa post e.g. CHC London after the sponsor is approved...

Re: Sending Medical and Police certificate later..

Re: Skilled worker B.C?

I suggest check the NOC lead statement and main duties very carefully against what you do/have done in the last 10 years. To me, the NOC appears to be oriented towards hardware engineers. Most IT...

Re: LMO rejected twice - options

Hi,

I don't think the Canadian company is doing anything illegal if they keep him on the Canadian payroll while he works in the UK. It is up to them, but seeing the company has a UK office which...

Also, if the Province that nominated you issues a work permit support letter, I suggest you obtain a new letter from them and submit that too.

Re: LMO rejected twice - options

Under current legislation you do not need a Canadian work permit to work for a Canadian company outside Canada. I don't like it though - it's called outsourcing. Theoretically I suppose the...

Re: Help Needed.. Changing LMO keeping same employer

Presumably your friend will be doing a skilled job in future so he needs a new work permit. I don't see why he cannot be issued with that at the border, which would also enable his wife to obtain a...

Re: Criminal rehabilitation time-scale
