Please don't use bold and large fonts in the future. Very difficult to read.

You can apply for PR at any time if you meet the requirements. Having the scholarship and one year work permit does not guarantee PR.

I would recommend that you start by researching the Express Entry program to determine your chances of being selected. This is a points based program and those with the most points are selected. Right now you need to have 470+ points to be chosen. Details here:

I would recommend that you calculate your points to determine your chances of being selected through this program.

Have you received your permit yet? Is this a study or work permit? This doesn’t seem like a typical situation have you already started your PhD? You are only preparing your research.
