Girlfriend's LMO expires September. What should we do?
I am obviously a Canadian citizen. I was born and raised in Canada. My girlfriend has been working in Canada for nearly 2 years. She is here as a TFW. However, her employer has really gave her the runaround, in terms of extending her LMO. She works at a fast food restaurant right now, and first brought up the issue of extending her LMO for another 2 years. Her employer sat on it for months, then informed her it was denied on Monday.
This is taking place in Alberta, where there is a huge shortage of workers in the industry. She is also trying for a caregiver position to stay in Canada. I was wondering how I could help her appeal, or help extend her stay in Canada since we want to live together. How can I help her appeal, or find a new LMO before it expires (September)? Would I need a lawyer? Is there anything I can do to sponsor her, as a Canadian citizen? Please help.
