What if I am having PGWP , can I say to my employer to apply for LMIA for me to get extra points in Express Entry? If yes, will my PGWP expire?

Yes - you can ask your employer to get an approved LMIA. No - this will not mean your PGWP is canceled / expired.

If your employer can’t find a Canadian or PR to do the job, wants to pay for the application, and complete all the paperwork including a market assessment on how hiring you, then go for it.
