Between Jobs

[anand_r]

Hello Everyone,

My scenario is as follows:

I have 23 months experience in NOC 2171 on a PGWP and also a 2 year FT Masters degree. However, I am going to change jobs again to an NOC 2171 in a different Province.

That being the case, can I apply for my CEC PR while I am in between jobs (say serving my notice here or during the 1-week gap before I join the new company).? I want to do that since joining the new company will mean I will have to ask for the Reference letter, which they may not like if I ask during my first day or so.

I have all the requisite documents, IELTS, birth certificate. Applied for a PCC too.

Also, if I do apply in between jobs,
a. Should I mention on my forms about the new company, as it is not effective the day I am applying
b. When should I inform CEC about the new job, immediately after joining or only after I receive my Reference Number

Thank you!
Anand

you only need 12 months experience inorder to be eligible...

you have 23 months. you are already eligible. m not sure why are you worried about ref letter from the new place...

did you start working there?

then apply before you start and you don't even have to mention about it..
