can you not extend it..is it maxing out? do you have any vacation to recapture? deloitte didnt do your gc..just curious

My company is also looking at CA after not getting H1-B but do you know why it may take more than 2 months? In still to hear back from the lawyers

Immigration told me this is how long it is usually taking

OP I think Deloitte US will ask you to quit and join Canada from strach so visa expiration will make no impact on your future as such. I guess LIAM labor assessment takes 2 months plus 2 months to find a position in CA for you.

LMIA work permit takes so many months. Your firm will have to prove that there is no Canadisn or permanent resident available to do the job.

Best to do FSW - Canadian Experience class.
