Hi Guys,
I have a question related to on going issue of COVID-19. I have submitted my PR application documents in the start of March 2020. My application is in process. Due to current situation company is going to layoff employees and shutdown plant for few weeks. In this scenario, If i apply for EI (employment insurance) will it make problem in PR application. Is there any link between EI and PR application?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks

I mailed my PR application under PNP and IRCC received it last week. Unfortunately, I was laid off on the same day. I have same situation with you. Would like to know too. Cheers!

so did you get any further update on your application? is it going to make any difference in the application process or any chance of objection just because of layoff?

Hi there,
Nuh~ I haven't heard anything back yet. However, I did apply for EI before I searched for the information. I don't know what's gonna happen in the end. Finger crossed.
