Hello Everyone!
I have a query for EXPRESS ENTRY. I have completed my Masters of agriculture (3 semester program) from University of Saskatchewan. I have a job offer for Food court supervisor (Burger King) as this job lies in NOC B but not field of study. I am wondering will this job help me in filing my federal PR or not!

Also, University of Saskatchewan is U-15 member and I have completed my Masters from this university. Does this university graduated students has any option of graduate student stream as other province (Ontario) for filling their residency in Canada?

The last and foremost question is, duration of PGWP, since I have studied 3 semester program and it's more than 8 months. What you think, will I receive my PGWP for 1 year as similar to 8 months study program or it will be more than 12 months in my case?

Thank you for your time.

Best regards
Ravneet

Once you have worked in your job for a full year, you can claim points under EE for a year of work experience in Canada. This does not count as a job offer for job offer point unless your employer gets an approved LMIA.

You'll need to investigate the provincial programs to see what your options may be.

You should get a 1 year PGWP.

Thank you for reply.
So in a short, I should start as supervisor at Burger King since it’s NOC B category, field job doesn’t concern at all.
Gaining experience for supervisor position at Burger King will complete my eligibility (canadian skilled worker experience) to file Express Entry.
Please correct me if I am wrong!
Thanks

That's correct. But you also need to have enough points to be selected through CEC once you have at least one year of work experience.

Thank you so much.
My score is around 475.
That's a good score. Make sure you are not counting the 50 points for having a job offer.

Hello I completed my masters from Mcmaster university. Now I got a job offer for door to door fundraising. I am confused if I will be eligible for PR if I work for full time in this job. I saw that it falls under catagory B but they did not include the task requirement. I hope someone can help me out.

What are the job duties? Which NOC do you think your job falls under?

Hello, I saw that fundraiser falls under NOC 1123 which is type A. The job duties are -
1)I will be working with a team door to door around different parts of Toronto.
2) I will be engaging with the public to inspire potential donors to become monthly supporters and update them on charity's program and achievements.
3) I would be trying to meet daily fundraising roles.

It's definitely not NOC 1123. Look at the job duties for this NOC in comparison to yours.

https://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p3VD.pl?CLV=4&CPV=1123&CST=01012011&CVD=122376&Function=getVD&MLV=4&TVD=122372

It's probably something like NOC 6623.

When I look into the "main duties" for NOC 1123, all the job duties written are very broad and not specific to "fundraising" for which I am not sure if it is under 1123 or 6623. Can anybody please help me with this? Thank you!

I can guarantee you that it is not 1123.

Thank you so much for the prompt response. One more quick question- I also got an offer to work as a preschool assistant teacher. However, that job is not full time and the employer emailed saying that they are going to put me on a supply and on call role for now until they are back to full capacity. Due to Covid-19, not many students are coming in and since the cases are increasing I am not sure if I will be offered a full time position. I am willing to start with the job if it falls under early childhood educator assistant which is 4214 code. Could you please confirm? Also, will I be able to apply for PR if I work less than 30 hours?

Job Responsibilities are as follows-
• Understand and implements Montessori curriculum in accordance with directives and guidelines outlined by the school
. • Compliment and assist the lead teacher/Montessori teacher in providing quality educational program to toddlers and preschoolers.
• Assist lead teacher in preparing materials and activities.
• Demonstrate effective time management skills and classroom management skills and maintain an orderly and clean environment.
• Provide support for children in the classroom and enable them to fully participate in activities • Uphold safety and care of children at all times.
• Exhibit flexibility and warmth along with professionalism and strong work ethics.
• Exhibit good communication skills with parents, guardians and fellow team members.

Also, I was wondering if I do this job as a preschool teacher assistant whereas my background is in public health, will it be a problem when applying for PR?

I really appreciate your help. Thank you once again and looking forward to your reply.

Thank you . These calculated points are without job offer.
I have one more query:
As my work permit will be of 12 months and I need 12 months of skilled work experience.

I am assuming as my work permit will expires after 12 months and on the other side I will be submit my file thru CEC ( Express entry) just completing 12 months
Then what will be the case?
I have to come back to my home country or I can write to IRCC that my file has been submitted for PR purpose.
Please tell me and guide me appropriately.
I consulted some lawyers they told me not rely on Express Entry because score can be unpredictable (it can be more than 500).
I am too confused.
