Hi all

I am in canada on a study permit and have found a job offer supported with LMIA but still on study permit and i still havent applied for a work permit. I got my invitation July 10 . Do you think because im still on a study permit that it will affect my application ??
anybody else in a similar position , or has applied from inside canada but has no canadian work experience?

I am not clear about your situation from the information provided, so don't want to presume or send out a negative response, but a quick look at your post I feel it's a conflicting scenario you described.

My understanding is that you are yet to complete your course and you do not have a PGOWP. However, because you got an offer supported with LMIA you want to start working. If you have a PGOWP then it would not affect your application, but yes without LMIA your score will be less.
If you do not qualify for a PGOWP, but want to take this offer up I feel you are contradicting your status in Canada. What would your status be? A full-time student or a worker ? But as i said I might not have understood your situation and question completely.

Thank you.

1 year work experience in Canada to qualify for CEC. You are already eligible for FSW which is why you got the ITA.

I imagine your study permit will have no bearing on your FSW based PR application.

But in your case, you are claiming an LMIA supported job offer and 600 points on that basis. I imagine even that would be fine because you have basic program eligibility under FSW. Just confirm 2 things,

1. You've indicated nothing on your profile to indicate Canadian work experience so you should be ineligible for CEC and only for FSW. Is that correct?

2. You haven't finished your PG education and you haven't claimed those points in your profile. Is that correct?

Thanks for the reply

As for number 2 : I have a bachelors degree which is euivalent to a masters degree . That's all I've claimed .
