I am currently on a PGWP. The following is my situation.

I have 1 year of Canadian Experience as a Financial sector which is CEC-eligible work experience from my previous employer.

I have a positive LMIA from my current employer as a Line Cook position (worked here for 8 months, and continue).

My question is – will I have to work for 1 year or equivalent to 1560 hrs in total in this current LMIA employer to get my 50 points for LMIA?

Your application will likely be flagged as potential LMIA fraud. Who goes from a financial advisor to a line cook. Is your education and work experience in business/finance or hospitality?
