Yes i face the same issue.
I contacted one consultant and he says that i was looking at the wrong work permit application. It is for candidates with a confirmed job offer from Canada. There is another application particularly for SUV work permit as per him, but he didn't told me which application it was and where to find it.

Now i have prepared PR application only. Because, even if you get SUV work permit, you cannot enter Canada for the next 6 months due to COVID-19.
Hi we are in same boat
Will b happy to connect with you
Thanks
 
Hi Surjit,
I am also applying for work permit under startup visa program. Are you applying online? I am having difficulties with the personal checklist the website gave me. it is requesting these information which I believe does not apply to SUV applicants.
1. Employer reference letter
2. Letter from current employer
3. employment records
4. employment contact
5. Proof that you meet the requirements of the job being offered

Did you face the same issue?
Have you fine a solution for that? I have the same issue?
