Hello,
I am pulling this thread up again. I came to Canada in July 2021 as a visiting lecturer at UBC, holding a valid work permit (Lmia-exempt); however, my salary was from my home country during my first year, then I started getting salary from UBC from July 2022. Now, I'm putting my PR application, and I am so hesitant to include the first year as a part of my Canadian experience. Did anyone experience similar situation recently and what was the outcome?
