Hey Guys,

I have no clue what to do now, back in 2016 after my studies I worked for 3 weeks full time before receiving my PGWP and right now I am applying for my PR, the job letter states that I was employed from 26th sept 2016 to 31st Dec 2016 and I received my PGWP on 17th OCT.

You are legally allowed to work after you submit your PGWP application, so if your application was submitted before Sep 26, you are fine.

In that case just write a brief explanation in your LOE.
Obviously you won't be able to count those 3 weeks for CRS purpose. List it separately in personal history instead of work history

And that won’t affect my application?
