Hi, just wondering if anyone has the same situation with me.

I applied for CEC and became PR. After that, I quit my CEC job because the manager was a tough person. Now there is a new job coming to me. However, the starting level and hourly rate of the new job are lower than my CEC job, but there are better opportunities in the company for promotion.

Do you guys think i should take the new offer? if the new job is lower level and rate in the beginning compared to my CEC job, will that affect my PR status? Would CIC get suspicious of my CEC case when i renew pr or apply for citizenship in the future?

I need your advices. thank you!

CEC means your PAST Canadian work experience. Since they already approved your PR from that experience, of course you can change jobs. Lower or higher pay doesn't matter. As long as you work legally, you can even change jobs during your CEC PR application process, after the lock-in date of your application.

From what i understand, you are already a PR. So it should not matter now, what job you do.

My understanding is As a PR you are free to work and live anywhere in Canada. It will not impact you PR renewal process or Citizenship process.

Yeah, in principle jobs after CEC shouldn't have an impact on PR status. However, does it make sense to CIC that we do a lower-level jobs in the same industry after CEC jobs?
