Hello all, I have a PGWP which is expiring early next month. I have already created express entry profile and I stand at 431 CRS score. I am currently employed full time as well. I also have study permit that allows me to stay back in Canada after my work permit and work visa expires, I heard I can't get off campus work permit until my school starts and that is in September. I am working with the same company since 2014 in different capacities, if I change my experience on express entry to two years, my marks bumps up to 456 which means I can get ITA in next draw, hopefully, based on the trend. I have a letter from my employer that states that I have been in leadership role since two years and currently a manager, would that letter be helpful and I would be safe to put 2 years in my profile. Do I have to leave my current job when PGWP expires? or what is the way out? any suggestion or advice?

When does your PGWP expire exactly?

You have to stop working when your PGWP expires unless you have a new work permit. Without a new work permit, it will be illegal for you to work between the time your PGWP finishes and the time you start your studies in September.

Do you really have two years of work experience in a qualifying occupation? Have you worked for 104 weeks for at least 30 hours each week in a NOC A, B or 0 role? You can't say you have two years of skilled experience if you don't. You will need evidence to back up your work experience. Not just a letter - pay slips, etc. If you already have two years of skilled work experience, then I don't understand why you haven't already increased your work experience in your EE profile to 2 years.
