Hi Guys,

Just curious about this,

I am currently receiving Employment Insurance(EI) since past 4 months.

I have received an invitation to apply for my permanent residency under CEC.

Question is,

Does EI will affect my PR application?

Thanks and let me know

I have already completed my 1 year experience and have received ita
All I am asking if the EI I am receiving now will have any effect on my PR application?

Like I said.

It won't, unless 4 months of your Canadian work experience is EI.

Your work experience ends when your EI began.

Are you counting any of the months since you've been on EI as Canadian work experience?

If no, then EI doesn't matter.

No it won’t affect your PR application. Unless you claimed points for having a full time job before ITA.
