If you received your confirmation of completion of studies/graduation on May 2, and applied for the PGWP on May 3, you don't need to worry about that work experience. But none of the work up to May 2 counts as experience. I am more worried about your "independent contractor" status - how...

It is a common mistake from which you receive no benefit, so no - not misrepresentation. No need to decline the ITA either. Simply upload a letter of explanation saying you initially thought you had a valid job offer but later understood the rules and learned that you did not.

IRCC is not going to simply accept your company's choice of NOC. They will review the job duties and responsibilities and determine if they match the NOC you selected for your work experience., or not. In other cases where applicants have had difficulty chosing between NOCs, writing a letter...

It is not mandatory that the reference letter includes an NOC. But if it does and you disagree with it, you should still chose the NOC that aligns with your job duties and responsibilities (and lead statement), and include the letter of explanation. Without knowing what your job duties are...

No soup : ) As long as you didn't claim to have arranged employment / valid job offer, it simply does not matter, there is no impact on either your PR or BOWP eligibility. Unfortunately as primaprime noted, you won't be able to accept new employment until you get the BOWP...

I think as long as it is the same job title and indicates that you would continue in your current position for at least one year (or permanently) after becoming a permanent resident, and contains the other details (e.g. salary information), then it would *probably* be OK.

ICT permits are not through international agreements. It would be the wrong category for you. Yours is employer-specific.

As long as you have completed the 1 year of experience, you can quit at any time. (Unless you fear that your employer will lie about your work experience if you quit...) You do not need to be employed at the time of the ITA, or at any time in the process.

Rahul, just to be clear you are asking about the JOB OFFER LETTER for the extra 50 points, not the LETTER OF REFERENCE, is that correct? (They are two different letters). Does your Letter of Reference contain the job duties and responsibilities? If so, and you are continuing in the same...

You will first have to work for your employer in Canada for one year, and then when you are ready to apply, you will ineed a new job offer letter from the same employer, indicating that you will have ful;-time skilled employment for a period of at least one year (or permanent employment) after...

52 continuous weeks = 1 year, your counting is off which is why you are confused. (If you want to be exact, 52.14) Regardless, you cannot count the weeks you were laid off. As already stated, you need to add 4 weeks to your anniversary date to get your eligibility date. It looks to me that...

She will have implied status too, and can continue to work, as she is applying to extend her status as a worker...

See the section , Proof of Work Experience https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/permanent-residence/express-entry/applications-received-on-after-january-1-2016-completeness-check.html If you have the T4s for your...

It may be confusing, since technically you cannot hold a co-op position unless you are a student. Your employer should have changed it as soon as you graduated. If your employer won't change it, just add a letter of explanation that you started the position before you graduated.

"Implied status" means you continue to hold the status of your expired permit, until your new permit is approved. If your soon-to-expire permit is closed, then your status will remain the same until your BOWP is approved. You cannot change employers until then.

You are in luck that IRCC has finally made its position on this clear in writing: https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1476&top=25 Before, the rule was that since IEC permits were not extendible, then no "implied status" was available to IEC permit holders. Then, I think it...

As scylla mentioned, you answered something incorrectly. When you enter your Canadian employment, there are a series of ~3 questions at the end of the entry screen asking things like "Did you work without authorization," Was this work experience gained while on a study permit... Check your...

If the company is shut down, how did you get the letter of recommendation? (Did the company just shut down, after you got the letters?) Can you still contact the person who wrote it and get updated contact information? (You can include that in the letter of explanation, which I would...

Yes, it is OK, though it is likely you could apply for EE three times in the same time it would take to process a PNP application....
