thanks dear, but people on forum told me that one with work permit is not eligible of getting permanent residence unless applied seperately. and even cannot apply for nationality later. can you please help me as this is very good to know that i am eligible automatically if i have worked there for one year. the other option i was thinking about is that once i get work permit i will also apply for FSW again with job offer so that i get it within a year. please help me way forward on deciding what is better.
really appreicate your help
Yes you have to apply afresh in CEC stream or if your employer agree to give you permanent job offer then you can apply in AEO category.
for more details please follow below mentioned thread

*** CEC (Canadian Experience Class) ***
- The Canadian work experience requirement would be reduced from 24 months to 12 in the preceding 36 months, to allow faster transition for those who have already proven their employability in Canada's labour market. Accumulating 12 months of authorized work within the preceding 36 is more flexible for applicants working in Canada under international agreements (e.g. International Experience Canada).
- Only applicants with NOC 0, A or B work experience would continue to qualify for the CEC.
- Minimum language abilities would be required in each of the four abilities (reading, writing, oral comprehension and speaking) for applicants to the CEC.
"As with the FSWC, the proposed Regulations would grant the Minister the authority to set the language threshold. Initially, it is anticipated that the threshold would be set at CLB/NCLC 7, which corresponds to having “adequate intermediate proficiency” in speaking, oral comprehension, reading and writing for NOC 0 and A applicants and CLB/NCLC 5, or “initial intermediate” proficiency in each ability for NOC B applicants."
