Is it better to mention in the PGWP application that I have already a job offer? Even though the company will not help me with this and future EE application?

Hey there,
I accidentally said yes in this "Are you a full-time student at a participating post-secondary institution and want to work off-campus up to 20 hours per week?"
Would that be a problem?

Hi Guys, I need some assistance with the IMM5710e form - which we get for the PGWP application. I am not yet working, and it asks for my current employment dates and information. What should I do?

It asks for your employment history. If you don't have any employment history then you can mention that you were studying x course in x college/university.

Odds are that you would have probably worked at a part-time job. You can mention that in the employment section.

I have a question. I've applied for PGWP online last week. During my Study permit, I worked for more than 20 hours over 4 weeks across 4 months. Would that be a problem in deciding my application?
