Hi Everyone,

I received ITA on November 2nd under CEC. I have been working in my current position for less than 2 years and based on the first full year of working in this position I got points toward Canadian Experience.

My work contract is ending in few weeks. I am applying to get a new job at other companies.

I will be submitting my PR application probably after my current work contract ends, so I might be unemployed when submitting (or might be on another job).

Do I need to inform CIC about this change when submitting my PR application? and is it a problem if I am not working in the job that I received my ITA because of one year experience in that job?

Thanks.

Do you have a LMIA based work permit?
No, My work is LMIA exempt. The thing is I got points as I had worked one year in this position (less than 2 years, but got points only for the first full year of working).
Now I am leaving this job, is that going to be a problem? or shall I report it to CIC in my application?

Your ITA date is your "lock date"
Any change to your employment status after that date will be irrelevant to your application.

If you want you can inform IRCC about loss/change of job but its not mandatory.

I appreciate your helpful reply.

One more thing that I don't understand is "Inland CEC". What does that mean and What is CEC called in case it is not inland?
I have received ITA under CEC while being in Canada, does that mean I am inland CEC? If so, does it mean that I have to submit my PR application from inside of Canada?

What happens if I leave Canada before submitting my application? or maybe "Inland CEC" means something else?

Inland is when you apply from within Canada, else it will be out-land. Not sure if that impacts the processing time as I read somewhere that out-land gets processed faster to inland. Not able to find the article to substantiate. So I would rather take it with a pinch of salt. All the best!
