PGWP extension - NOC job

[pedroluis03]

Hi, thank you to whoever replies.

I don't know if you will know how to answer my question, but, for example, I have a PGWP of 1 year. After 3 months I got a valid noc job to immigrate. When I finish the PGWP I will have worked less than 1 year, because I only got the job after 3 months of PGWP. Is it possible to extend the PGWP in order to complete the 1 year of work in the noc necessary to earn points to immigrate?

Thanks in advance!

No - you won't be able to extend the PGWP.

Your employer will need to obtain an approved LMIA so that you can apply for a closed work permit tied to that employer.

There is a PGWP extension available due to covid. Depending on your circumstances you may qualify.
