De: Envoyé: [requester] A: Immigration Representatives / Représentants immigration (IRC) <[requester email]> Objet: [requester] Dear [requester], Tam writing to inguire about the CRS points for work experience accumulated on an LMIA work permit if the applicant later terminates employment with his/her employer while holding the LMIA work permit, and whether the applicant can still claim the work experience if the LMIA work permit gets canceled after the termination, To provide a specific example: The applicant is working in Canada for a Canadian employer (from August 2023 to January 2025, 30 hours/week, paid, NOC 11100, performing all essential duties/Iead statement, not studying, not self-employed, on a PGWP). Before the expiration of his/her PGWP in February 2025, the applicant obtained an LMIA work permit valid until January 2027 in January 2025 and continued working in the same position, in alignment with the terms and conditions of the job offer. If the applicant quits the position in August 2025, by that time, he/she will have accumulated 2 years of fulltime experience with the Canadian employer (1.5 years ona PGWP and 0.5 years on an LMIA work permit). Ifthe LMIA work permit gets canceled after the termination of employment, can the applicant still claim 2 years of Canadian work experience under Express Entry? Thank you in advance for your time and attention to this matter. Best regards.
