IRCC doesn't appreciate people filing under false pretenses and they often scan application to pick out people trying to do exactly this and refuse their application much earlier. I also don't understand how anyone is going to fill out a paper PR application with no grounds to file a PR application.One immigration lawyer was telling me that you can apply for paper based PR which takes much longer, but as soon as you apply- you can apply for bringing work permit( because you already applied for PR. It will take about 6 month until they will start to check your application, so your work permit might be already approved. Try to talk to immigration lawyer by yourself, it might be costly, but I believe it's the only way to keep working here, in this situation.
