Good morning to everyone!
I am new in this forum and will be grateful for any advice.Actually I got my job offer letter at the end of May,positive LMO -few weeks ago (for position of nurse) And tomorrow morning I going to apply for the work permit (maybe..)
I have a question to any other nurse(RN).When I have the offer letter and positive LMO,but my registration with the CRNBC(College of registered nurses of British Columbia) is not completed can I apply for the work permit now or it is necessary to complete the registration ?
And the second question: if anything will be missing in my application package ,within what time frame should I provide necessary documents before a file will be closed.

Thanks a lot for any information or advice.

You are required to meet any licensing requirements of your occupation when applying for your work permit. Contacting the appropriate licensing body can assist you in determining whether or not you do, which would answer the question. A visa officer will specify time limits within which to provide missing information; there is not fixed delay.
