What is a valid job offer for express entry profile?

[powereng1982]

Hello,

I have been working in Quebec for last 2 years. To extend my work permit, my employer has issued a new job offer/contract letter. The letter states that this is extension of my job and also clearly states that:

• job is full-time and non-seasonal
• for 1 year
• job is listed in TEER 1

I have an active profile in express entry. I was wondering if I can select yes for the question "Do you have a valid job offer?"

I have looked in to the following link, but I don't find anything related to extestion of an existing job

Valid job offer is a job offer supported by LMIA or LMIA exempt job offer.

There's another similar term called "Offer of employment" that I see many get confused with a job offer supported by LMIA.

Federal skilled workers and Canadian experience class
A job offer is valid if the job is

• working for one employer
• continuous
• paid
• full-time (at least 30 hours a week)
• not seasonal
• for at least 1 year after we issue your permanent resident visa
• in a NOC TEER category 0, 1, 2 or 3

Thanks, it makes sense. However, just beneath the question in EE profile, it only asks followings

Does XXX have a job offer in Canada?

The offer must:

• be for full-time and for at least one year
• meet different requirements depending on type of job (i.e. some need apprenticeships and certification) and
• be non-seasonal for Federal Skilled Workers.

If I don't read the link you provided and follow the questnaire in EE, at the end job offer is added in my profile. Why don't they add "for at least 1 year after we issue your permanent resident visa" in the questionaire?
