Dear Friends , I have come on IT work permit 3 months back , I plan to apply for my PR this month , can any one please inform me the time that it will take me to get my PR .
I have been receiving different information regarding the time factor , some tell me that it will take 12 months , some tell me that it will take not less than 4 years ( for IT skill worker ) my company tells me that it will take 6 months .
I have also got the latest information from my friend , that I cannot apply before 1 year , that I must have 1 year continuous stay before I apply for my work permit .
Could some one please help me out with the correct information, am confident of this forum as I have been getting the right picture from Canadiandasi .

hi!!!

yep you must have to stay in canada for atleast 1 yr for file from Buffalo.

But in one condition u can get PR from canada if ur company will give u HRDC approval offer letter......IF u have HRDC aproved Offer letter and u r working for the same company u can file ur PR from Alberta, canada...

It will take only 6 months to get Ur PR........

Best of luck....

Thanks Sandip for the info , I have got a pre approved HRDC job (software developer ) but no letter from HRDC approving the same , just a letter from my company stating that it is a HRDC pre approved job. Am presently working for the company in Manitoba, will it be better for me to go through the provincial nomination program of Manitoba or the federal process through Buffalo . Thanks again for all the help .

Sorry Sandip , another clarification, how can one file from Alberta ? is it under the provincial nomination program ( PNP ) of Alberta ? as I thought you have to file from outside the country . By the way how long have you been waiting for your PR .
