I come to know that, CEC rules have been changed OR going to be changed from January 1, 2013. I am in Regina for over 4 months now and started work before 1st of May, 2012. However, my post graduate work permit is expring on December 6, 2012. I have worked in Toronto for 1 year for logistics company, I did my 4 months Co op work term from May 2012 to August 2011 and then continued in same company in the role of Bookkeeper from September 2011 to April 2012 for 8 months. I filed my PNP in Ontario but I did not get Job approval for more than 6 months and hence I left the job and moved to Regina, my unfortunes that rules started changing here, by the time I moved to Regina I got my job approval in Toronto as well and there is no more luxury in terms of immigration. I have been working here for Accounting analyst job for over 3 months now from June 2012 onwards, but my job is term job of 15 months but my company wants me continue, I also work on part time at Tim Hortons in Regina.

I am looking to apply for SINP sometime by end of this month but now job approval rule has made it more complex and hence I want to try out all options are left with me. before I have to go back home. I have already finished 4.5 months and more than 960 hours in Regina. Its been hard fought life for me here over 2 years now in Canada, I came to this country with dream and still I belive that I have plenty to offer to this country in terms of skill and amount of work but I have no more constraints other than time.

Please advise, what should I do ? my work permit is expiring in about 3 months from now.

Why dont you apply extension of work permit once you will get SINP. Its very easy to get the extension

Already in Canada (28/09/2010)
If you apply for SINP you won't get the nomination before next year. I am already waiting 10 months and they only now started to actually do something because I contacted an MLA here in Regina.
SINP I think is the slowest of all PNP programs.
You should see that you can get an extension to your present work visa while waiting on SINP.
