Has XY been working full time for the employer on their current work permit for at least 1 year?

[jonnnie23]

Hello!

I am still unsure what to answer... I called the support number 1-888-242-2100 (in Canada only), told them what the situation was, and they advised me to open a ticket for a `technical difficulty`.
I just sent the information, and they say they will reply within 10 business days.

I'll post the what they answer here.

Great let me know, I spoke to two ppl who were in same position and they confirmed that they got pr and didn’t work one year on the specific closed wp , also spoke with my lawyer and he confirmed as long as you are holding a permit in there name and working for at least one year, with that said though there is no guarantee that cic will not reject it but based off the answers that I get I will take my chances and apply for the 50 points

I have the offer of employment application that my employer used to issue my current closed work permit (2 years from September 2017). My employment agreement states that my position is permanent and for indeterminate time as long as I remain entitled to work in Canada. So I think that should be enough.
