Is a 1 year pgwp enough to get PR?

Really interesting answer can you please elaborate how the OP can extend his PGWP if he/she has a permanent job.
It's a very risky plan. You should complete 2 years of studies in Canada so that you qualify for a 3 year PGWP.
It can be quite difficult to secure a full year of skilled work experience in Canada with only a 1 year PGWP.
If PR is a priority, study an additional year to get the 3 year PGWP.
This is extremely difficult to do. Employer needs to get an approved LMIA. Most employers are not willing to do this.
International Graduate category of the BC Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) can help you gain permanent residence in B.C.
Am I eligible?
To qualify for this category, you must:
- have accepted a full-time, indeterminate job offer (a permanent job, or one with no set end date) from a B.C. employer. The job must be in a National Occupational Classification skilled occupation (Skill Type 0 or Skill Level A or B).
- qualify to work in your occupation in B.C.
- show you can support yourself and your dependents
- have, or be eligible for, legal immigration status in Canada
- have completed a degree, diploma or certificate from an eligible post-secondary institution in Canada in the past three years
- for NOC skill level B occupations, meet minimum language requirements
- have a wage offer in line with B.C. wage rates for the occupation
i'm planning to sudy 2 year in canada to get pgwp and then pr but i wanna know which collage increase my opportunities to find job after graduation ??
No college increases your chances. It is the program and whether you find a skilled job in NOC A, B or 0 does. You need to research programs.
