Hi Jess,

I have a question about Post-Graduation Work Permit extension. My PGWP is expired next year and my job is categorized as low skilled in NOC list. I know that employers have to apply LMO in order to help me extend my PGWP. My question is that am I still qualified for PGWP extension with a low skill job?

Thank you in advance.

Generally, for an employer to obtain an LMO, the position has to be skilled (NOC level O,A, or B). So you would not be able to obtain an LMO if you continue in your current position.
