I am residing in Quebec on temporary work permit which will expire this October 2018.
My employer has initiated and applied for CSQ (in progress) in hopes of extending my work permit.
But I have no intention to stay in Quebec.
I cannot change jobs to any other province because I am on closed work permit. The employers in other provinces are not willing to employ me because I do not have a PR and they are not keen on going thru costly LMIA process to hire me.
I didn't know all of these problems with Quebec before coming here. If I had known, I would have found employment anywhere else in Canada. But currently I am in a pickle because I didn't do proper research.
I am planning to apply for CEC because I have completed 1 year in Canada now. Because a link from CIC site says I can apply from Quebec.
Will a CSQ application in progress affect CEC application and vice versa ? Are they interconnected ?

- Because my wife is not getting a job. Quebec do not accept her educational degrees, while rest of Canada and the world does !!
- I do not know French, I cannot progress in my career.
- We find it difficult to interact with govt. & public services and gets discriminated sometimes.
