Regarding post graduate work permit experts please advise

[karan89]

Hi friends,

I finished my two years(4 semester) full time program last month. I am applying for post graduate work permit. I am filling IMM5710E form right now. I am little confused about what to fill in "DURATION OF EXPECTED EMPLOYMENT". One of my friend told me that we should not fill this field because its for those who have job offer and want to extend their work permit. Another friend of mine told me that you should fill from today's date to after three years date for example from 19/05/2014 to 19/05/2017. So i am really doubtful about what to fill in this field. Please advise me regarding this.

thanks

You should look at the check list as it may have been updated since I applied. But I remember uploading only the study permit.
