Friends, I am in Canada on my Post Graduate Work Permit. Currently I am unemployed. Here in the information from the Self-Assessment Test page, under group 2-post graduate work permit is mentioned. However the next point says - you are currently working in that job-. My question is do I qualify for arranged employment points? Or must I have a job in spite of possessing a Post Grad work Permit? I am bit clueless.
Kindly help me friends. Your suggestions/guidance in this case will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance and the help I am receiving in this forum is incredible. Thanks a lot.
