Make sure that your employer has a LMIA for the job offer. Without it, you won't get any points for the job offer.

Most definitely!

That is not correct. People with LMIA-exempt work permits can also qualify for having a valid job offer, they have to meet a slightly different set of requirements.

Could you help me understand what are those requirements?
1) If I move to Canada on ICT - 50 points
2) If my employer extends me an offer letter with a full time position with one year of employment after getting PR - 50 points. Now should my employer have an LMIA approved job position to extend me the offer letter ?

??? No points for merely moving to Canada. Points for one year or more of work experience in Canada.

Break-down of the points system -

If you are on an ICT, you first have to work for that employer for a minimum of one year, and then obtain a new written offer of future employment (for at least one year after becoming a PR, or permanent employment) to be eligible for the 50 points. No LMIA is required if you are on an LMIA-exempt work permit with your employer named on the permit (closed).

Never said everyone needs a LMIA. Only a small fraction of people qualify for LMIA exemption. Most Express Entry applicants don't have it.
