Hello everyone, for work permit do we need to show proof of funds even with LMIA? For a single applicant.
show proof of funds and as many home ties as possible. Even though this is not stated on their website , The visa officers expectations for Nigerians for all visa applications are always different because of our poor record as a nation. Take this advice from someone who has successfully applied for someone and gotten approval within 8 weeks.

Thanks so much. The reason I asked was because no funds for PoF. Moreso, for the application start date of the job and end date was requested. But job offer just says full time offer without end date.

\

Proof of funds is not neccessary for a work permit, your salary is proof of fund.
However if you're applying for dependents, your salary will be considered versus the number of applicants you are applying for.
Two dependents is a safe range.

What about the job offer? Is it permanent or contract?

Usually, a Twp is valid for the period of the lmia

Lmia can be renewed after the validity of your TWP or you can use the employment contract to apply for PR

Re: Canada Closed Work Permit by onuwaje(m): 10:48pm On Apr 18, 2023
Hello guys

Asking from a novice point of view
Thanks

Been a while here
We have moved since second week of August.
The week leading to our departure was very stressful. Buying and packing was not fun. We had foodstuffs weighing up to 65k grin, and infant luggage over 40kg grin grin cheesy
We had booked business class on Ethiopian Airlines so the luggage size was not a problem and really glad we did. Please if it's not too much for you, book business class for long distance travels, it's worth it. It's cheaper on airlines like Ethiopian compare to Qatar, Emirates, Lufthansa etc.
Our flight was quite long, over 30hrs to get to our final destination as we had layover in Ethiopia, then refuelling in Dublin and another layover in Toronto.

Immigration was smooth at Toronto, there's a priority line for families. The immigration officer only asked for my work offer letter, correspondence letter (LOI) and passport. He collected only passports from my partner and baby. We waited for about 20mins and I heard him making calls talking about the dried fish in one of my checked in bag grin grin I was calm since I already declared it in arriveCan and it was not over the limit. He called us later with no mention of the fish and gave me a printed work permit, my partner's work permit and my baby's visit permit. He explained some things in the letter to us and that was it. Left there and went to pick our bags.

Getting to our final destination/province, I had people from my office(including the CEO) already waiting for us. My baby's stroller/car seat was missing and I complained at the airport office, they gave us a brand new one and said there was a mixup and we will get it later in the week (which we did) and we can keep the new one too.
Already booked an Airbnb for all of August and got an apartment for September while in Nigeria, so accommodation was sorted.

It has been really good here. Registered for our SIN and opened a bank account in the first week.
People here are very very nice. It's the nicest I have ever seen. I have read and seen oyinbo people can be "snubbish" and they like their own space but people here have been good. I am much more happy for my baby. My baby has been the biggest winner in all of this. We received tons of gifts and deals for things.
We are already eligible for PR through PNP and might pursue this soonest. Although, we could apply for PR right from Nigeria via the job offer but it could take up to two years and the company decided against it.
It's been over a month now and things have been alright, coping with the weather and making sense of the culture. Everything here is different but we are getting up to speed gradually.

I will answer any questions regarding this movement and others that I can answer to the best of my ability.
Thank you
Forgive typos smiley
