    The second employment is for more than a year and he is saying that she didn't get points even for that. I have no idea why this would happen though.

    GRADUATING WHEN WAITING FOR RESPONSE FOR STUDENT VISA EXTENSION

    I don't get it, buy flight tickets to where? Regarding your first question, as long as you applied before the expiry date you're still legally a student. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=475&top=15

    Can I complete 2 programs using the same study permit?

    Can I complete 2 programs using the same study permit?

    But it's allowed to change programs, right? Even institutions. If I just say "i wasn't sure of which one of these programs i actually wanted to do, so i applied to the visa with this one but then changed my mind", that doesn't sound bad at all, or does it?

    Confused about job offer requirements for PNP - Is LMIA needed?

    If I come to Canada with an open work and find a permanent, full-time job, is that enough to match the requirements of job offer for PNPs such as BC or Manitoba, if the job does NOT have LMIA? Which are the provinces where I could apply for PNP with permanent full-time job offer but without...

    I don't know if there is an answer for this but: When applying to CEC but counting points for foreign experience, is it common to be asked for more documents of foreign work experience (besides the employer letter)?

    OINP: PGWP is going to expire soon!

    I was wrong: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=676&top=29 I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere, though...but since CIC says otherwise, it's probably false information :D

    Job change within one year

    Yes you will get points for 12 months. CEC does not require continuous experience, only FSW does. Just make sure that you DO work for at least 12 months (not 11 months and 25 days)
