Hi All,
I got an offer form an Canadian company, and the company prepared all documents for getting a work permit. Now that I had got the work permit could I apply for PR on the arranged employment category with this offer letter.

No, Work Permit cannot be treated as AEO. AEO is different. Your employer has to apply for that to the HRSDC, Canada. On receiving AEO you have to enclose it with your original application and send it to CIO, NS for initial approval. After that, you have to file your full FSW application in your local CHC office. So, Work Permit cannot be submitted in place of Arranged Employement Opinion. This is what I have understood from this forum. Let seniors reply also.
You can apply under arranged employment category. If you have already in Canada, you should attach copy of work permit and a letter from employer that they will hire you on permenent basis on arrival of your PR. We did same and got approved from CIO.
AEO is for those who do not have work permit but they have been offered a job in Canada.

Thanks manek ,
is My employer has offered me one year contract full time employment, Based on that I got a work permit valid for one year. Now i want to apply for PR status without the knowledge of my current employer is it possible.
I am into Software eningeering with 9 years experience.
No, without knowledge of employer is not possible. You need a letter from them that they will employ you on permanent basis after you get PR. Also CHC can verify same thing with your current employer. So it is not adivceable to do so.
Other option is to stay in Canada for one year on your work permit basis, then apply for PR on basis of one year stay at buffalo office. In this case you dont need to involve your employer.

1) Apply now for PR with copy of work permit and letter from employer that they will hire you on permanent basis after your PR come.
2) Apply once you finish one year stay in Canada without letter from employer.
