Hi Everyone,

I have studied in Canada for 1 year (post graduate). Having finished the program, I received 1 year of PGWP.
During that year I acquired 1520 professional hours in Canada, thus I was shy 50 hours to be at 1570 hours to be eligible for PR. My PGWP expired and I had to leave for my home country.
Right now, I have over 2000 hours of professional work, If I Include the hours I worked in Canada and hours in my home country. I took a leave of absence and I have a valid Job Offer without LMIA.

When I apply for Skilled Worked PR, should I apply my Canadian Job offer? or is it irrelevant without the LMIA? What would you do ?

I would gladly appreicate your help.

Regards,
Eugene

The job offer in Canada will only get you points if you also have an approved LMIA. Without an approved LMIA, it won't be classified as a job offer.
 
Thank you very much for your reply! I really appreciate it!

What kind of paper can I include that I worked 1520 hours of professional job? Just regular paper indicating I worked
