Will I be denied PR on CEC after reentering the country?

Just an opinion here- I don't think this will be an issue for you.

They are going to look at the eligibility of your work experience primarily, which is largely unrelated to your last crossing (unless you are trying to claim experience beyond the last day you actually worked).

They primarily look at entries/exits for the background check (i.e. to determine the countries you visited and where criminal record checks are required).

I doubt the focus of the application assessment is going to be a subsequent entry after your employment ended.

Hello there!

I'm writing because I'm in a situation that has me really worried.
I'm in Canada with a temporary work permit, although I left my employment some weeks ago (I finished in good terms with the employer).

Till there, everything ok. I know I can stay in the country while my work permit is valid, as far as I don't work for any other employer or enrol in any course.

My doubt is that after finishing employment I went to the US and came back to Canada, in order to arrange everything from here previous to my departure, which I'm planning for the next week. Since then it has been less than one month. My concern is that in the customs declaration form I indicated that my purpose was business since my permit is still valid. The CBSA officer asked verbally if I still were working for the company and I said yes, so he stamped my passport and let me enter Canada again.

I could have declared that I was entering as a tourist, but since I finished in good terms with my employer and I though that I might be ending working again for them I said what I said.

Now my concern is that I could have any legal problem because I said that I was still working for the employer. Specially since I was planning to apply for PR through the CEC category as soon as I leave and in the application I'd have to declare everything (they will see that I reenter end the country with a work permit and I never worked for the company again). I wonder if they could check the information with CBSA and I could get in trouble. So I'm even considering not applying for PR anymore because of this, although I really would like to apply.

I would appreciate any sort of advice!

Thanks

No they dont check with CBSA and as long as u have visa to enter canada it really didnt matter what u told them at entry point.....working in canada is different issue and entering on visa is different thing

This is misrepresentation - and it was totally intentional. This is the kind of thing that can get you deported / refused entry.

However, very unlikely to cause any issue with pr as they let you in. Had they investigated it and found out the truth at the point of entry, it would.

You will be fine. Good luck. No more lies.
