Covid-19/ Work Permit Holders accessing EI Benefit

[pemyrie]

Since Covid-19 we have heard about allowances being made for work permit holders to access EI benefits. If we apply and get these benefits, do you think this will have an impact on current/future PR applications? Your thoughts please.........

Receiving EI has no effect on immigration apps.

None of the benefits available because of COVID-19 have anything to do with an immigration app.
