Quebec Experience Class (PEQ)

[cvd222]

It says on the Quebec immigration website that in order to be eligible for the PEQ, the applicant must, at the time of submitting the application, "be present in Québec as a temporary worker or in the framework of a youth exchange program and hold legal status as a temporary resident."

What I am unsure of, though, if I need to still hold the job once I already have the CSQ. That is, do I still need to have the job when I submit my PR application at the federal level?

Thanks in advance.
