I have open work permit (issued as a support to Iranians) and I am working based on this open work permit.
during my study I was working as co-op with my co-op work permit. After my graduation on Oct 10th, 2024 I updated my work permit to the open work permit. my Co-op job is extended with the same employer and I am working with them until now October 16th 2025 and my contract is full-time temporary until May 2026.
I know work experience should be after graduation and not during the study. So, since October 10th 2024(my graduation) to October 10th 2025, I am assuming it has been 1 year of Canadian work experience, right?
now in my express entry section, Intended work in Canada, Does X have a job offer in Canada?
I answered yes, because I have full-time temporary contract until May 2026 (starting Oct 2024)
Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the job offer in Canada? (required)
No, right?
Does X have a valid work permit for the current job in Canada?
Yes, I have the open work permit
Is X job offer from the employer named on the current work permit?
No, as it is open work permit
Has X been working full-time for the employer on their current work permit for at least one year? (Or for an equal amount of part time work?)
No, as it is open work permit not with the employer on my work permit, but it has been a full time 1 year with the same employer so is No the right answer?
NOC code of current work permit?
NOC of my current position
Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the current work permit?
No
please let me know if I should change the job offer to No while it is based on the open work permit.
