Hello All,

I am working as in NOC 2174 software developer with
- positive LMIA on a closed work permit as an inland applicant
- my initial job offer says full-time indefinite duration
- HR letter says the permanent, full-time position
- Already have worked for the same employer for 1 year.

Can you please answer my below queries?
  1. Would there be any issue with PR processing even though the HR letter and offer letter doesn't say they will support 1year after PR?
  2. Do I have to take a new offer letter in any case?

Thanks
Venkatesh Guntupalli
 
Here’s what the IRCC website says: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...express-entry/documents/offer-employment.html

it has to be a new job offer and must state 1 year after getting PR.

A valid job offer has to be:
  • made by one employer
  • continuous
  • paid
  • full-time (at least 30 hours a week)
  • for at least one year after we issue your permanent resident visa
    • not seasonal
  • in a job that is NOC:
    • Skill Type 0 or
    • Skill Levels A or B

if you’re currently working in Canada in a NOC 0, A or B job on a work permit that was issued based on an LMIA, and:
  • you’re working for an employer listed on your work permit
  • you’re authorized to work in Canada on the day you apply for a permanent resident visa, and when the visa is issued
  • your current employer made you an offer to give you a full-time job for at least one year if you’re accepted as a permanent resident

I went through this already which is available in cic website but I don't have enough clarity on the offer part about "at least 1 year if you're accepted as Permanent Resident" and so had below 2 questions.
1.Would there be any issue with PR processing even though the HR letter and offer letter doesn't say they will support 1year after PR?
2.Do I have to take a new offer letter in any case?
Please clarify above 2 points specifically.

Thanks

That’s the requirements stated in the IRCC portal. Not sure if there’s any more clearer guidance than. It says the offer letter must be at least one year after PR visa is issued. So if your offer letter does not state that then you may not get the 50 points. Not sure if you understood it differently than I do. You can search for other threads in this forum. This has been asked and answered multiple times already.
