Yes - the one year of full time experience must be in Canada with that employer. Those who move to Canada on an ICT must wait a year before they qualify for the 50 points.

I meet the first 2 criteria. Problem for me is showing one year job offer post PR. My company will not provide any such letter. Only way I can proof that is to submit my extension letter. Do you think that without that I can claim it. From my company I can provide a letter stating that I am full time employee. My current job offer letter showing job will Aug 14 2020. Do you think that it’s sufficient to claim 50 points.
I would wait for other replies. I'm not sure the extension letter is good enough - especially given that Aug 2020 is less than a year for now.
Hello Experts,
I have same situation -
if you have a valid work permit for a NOC 0, A or B job that is exempt from needing an LMIA, and you:
are currently working for an employer specified on the work permit
have one year of full-time work experience (or an equal amount of part-time work) for that employer
have a valid job offer from that employer for at least one year after we issue your permanent resident visa
==> what about the last point? is it risky if we claim with JOB offer left or for 6 months, an employer is not ready to give offer more than 1 year after PR.

Hi there! If you don't mind me asking,
- Does the letter specifically have to state that the offer is 'for at least 1-year' or can we say the offer is for an 'indeterminate' period?
- Does the applicant also have to sign the offer? -Indicating that the offer has been accepted?
Please do not take that risk. My husband was a full time employee in Canada too, and he claimed that 50 points (but Valid for 1 year was NOT mentioned in the offer letter), our application was REFUSED after 8 months....reason - that statement was not mentioned in the offer letter and we claimed 50 points
Agreed. 99% refusals are there because of missing some of these keywords:
'Full-time Permanent', 'for an indeterminate period of time', 'for at-least 1 year'
Also, there should absolutely be no mention of an END DATE in the job offer letter.
Hi I am on ICT visa and have worked in Canada for 1 year, If I need to claim 50 points should I get a new offer letter or employment letter specifically stating "1 year of employment after getting PR"
I had already already applied for PR and AOR was September 3,
If somehow I can get a letter like that from HR can I upload this to my PR application via web form?

hi @bourne5144` : What did you end up doing? I am in same situation as you. My offer letter simply states I am a full-time regular employee. Did you get a new offer letter? What did you end up submitting? Did you get your PR?
I got another letter from my employer stating my job was permanent position with indefinite duration, and submitted it as a web form request, got PR after that
Thanks for your response. I’ll request my HR to provide that as well and see what they say. You submitted your original (1 year old) offer letter at time of e-APR right?
