I qualify under the Federal Skilled Worker Program right now - 77 points.
I have completed a 2 year Masters degree in Canada, and will be starting my job in Canada in 1 month. Should I apply for PR under the Federal Skilled Worker Program right now?

Is there any reason I should wait 1 year and apply under the Canadian Experience Class? It seems like one has to have a 1 year work experience in Canada in order to qualify for this category.

Help!

1. Why wouldn't you apply for FSW3? now rather than CEC?
