Hello! A bit of background information on me:
I've been in Canada since 2015. I completed a 2 year IEC permit, went back to school for a 1 year post-grad diploma and have been working on my 1 year PGWP for the last few months.
I'm getting all the documents together for my CEC application and I thought things were going smoothly...however, it appears that I completed 2 weeks of unauthorised work between finishing my co-op and applying for my PGWP. I didn't realise that I could only work for 20 hrs after classes were completed as I finished my Co-Op early and had been working for 40 hrs in that role.
I don't have a copy of my PGWP application any more, but as I created my PGWP application before I started working and then submitted as soon as I received my confirmation of graduation, it's a fair assumption to say that I missed these 2 weeks of work off my application.
Now I'm applying for CEC - how much will these 2 weeks mess things up? I've never breached any immigration requirements before and only worked 20 hrs per week while I was in school. I'm working in the same job since I applied for my PGWP and don't need the points to qualify for CEC, so I'm going to leave that in my 'personal history', but I feel that I should bring this error to the attention of the immigration officers in a LOE.
Can anyone give me any advice/insight as to how this may impact my PR application? I know that I should have checked my application more thoroughly, but it was only 2 weeks of unauthorised work over a period of 4 years, and I'm really hoping that an immigration officer will be kind enough to overlook this.
Any insight would be much appreciated.
