PR Requirements

[priyum521]

Hi,

I have a two years valid work permit. I am employed as Senior Programmer Analyst. I would come to Canada next month.

I want to apply for PR. Could anyone tell me, when can I apply and what are the pre-requisities.

Thanks in advance.

If your employer is willing to offer you a full-time permanent job after you start working in Canada and you meet the points requirements, you can apply as a Federal Skilled Worker - Category 2, after you arrive and start working in Canada.

You are not eligible for PR using CEC or FSW with work experience in Skill Level C. The only possibility may be some of the provisions under the BC PNP pilot project for certain occupations (hotel, restaurant industry) but that program looks like it's going to end in August.

You will see from the link provided by Leon that the job offer must be in a Skill Level 0, A or B position. And you still need to meet the requisite points passmark of 67.

Thanks lot for all you replies.

I have last question, is language test compulsory even if I get 67 points.

Thanks.
