    Is this job not helping you to move at all?
    Do they know you have no visa to work there?

    im a newbie too but this is what i know;
    u need a visa and they arent coming out till December - ish.
    once u have applied for a visa it takes around 3 months for it to come through.
    go4less are supposed to be good for filling out the forms and stuff and they cost 75 euro.
    if you have any more questions check out the other threads first cause you might find someone else asked the same question already.

    let me know if you use go4less as i would like to know what they are like

    dont use go4less

    they use the IEC visas that you can just go and get yourself for a fraction of the price

    caroline if you have a job lined up, see if they'll sponsor you. that'll mean you don't have to wait for the IEC scheme to open in january

    What ??


  • Registered Users Posts: 491 ✭✭againstthetide


    Can your cousin get an LMO for your brother?

    http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp

    It'll cost your brother $150 dollars for the permit it will mean your brother can work in Canada as a Temporary Foreign Worker for a year and then apply for PR status under the skilled worker program?
    When it reopens in January the requirements have changed to say you can apply after having 1 year of Canadian work experience


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    yeah an LMO is the best option for a 39 year old as he's not eligible for the IEC visa due to his age. but your cousin will need to have a properly registered company, be willing to advertise the job in canada, and fill out the paperwork for your brother. so if it's a case of "ah sure ill sort you out with a job when you get here" rather than "im formally offering you a job for my company" then it gets trickier
