To get the 600 points it has to be a permanent job offer.

So it is 0 point if it's only temporary?

Yes. But let me clarify - it's the job offer that has to be permanent. All LMIAs are temporary by themselves, but your employer has to write a letter saying that if you get PR with this LMIA, then the job will be permanent, full-time (more than 30 hours/week) and non-seasonal.

I am on a duel intent lmia that has a work permit and also the option to claim the 600 points. I just want to know with regards the job offer does it have to say permenant? Mine justs say offer of employment, would that be enough? It states it's a full time job more then 30 hours a week just does not mention Permenant ?

There has been at least 1 reported case of rejection when the LMIA job offer doesn't have the word 'permanent'. Check the Rejections thread for details on that case.

Let the clinic worry about this one - it is their job not yours in any case. For a single applicant, likely to be non-EDE Worker category.
