Young proffesional - date of end of employment

[ondra44]

Hi everyone,
My employer filled out offer of employmet and he writed in that lenght of my employment is just for 6 months.So my questin is.Will i get young professional visa just for 6 months or is YP valid for 1 year no matter what? Thank you

Others will comment but I would think only 6 months given I would interpret YP as a closed work permit given you cannot work for any other employer.

So u think that end of workpermit will match with end of employment?If thats true,after 6 months, i should be able apply for extension for another 6 months cause YP is for 12 months, if my employer will extend my contract of course.
This is from CIC website:
Your job has been extended
You can apply to extend your International Experience Canada work permit if:

• you’re a Young Professional or an International Co-op (Internship) participant,
• your employer’s original offer of employment was for a shorter period of time than the amount you’re eligible for, and
• your new offer of employment is
  
  • for the remaining amount of time that you’re eligible for, and
  • with the same employer for the same job (including same location and duties).

You can’t extend your International Experience Canada work permit if:

• you’ve received a new offer of employment from the same employer to work in a different job or at a different address, or
• you want to change employers without a valid reason.

What do you think? thank you very much for your opinion and help
