Dear Sir,
I'm going to Canada for master program in Mechanical Engineering which is 1 year course. I passed out in August 2014 and started Sailing in April 2015. As I was working in Merchant Navy (Third Assistant Engineer), My job was on contractual basis but I was associated with the same company since April,2015. I never done continuous 1 year of sea Service and same has been mentioned while applying for student visa. I do have 27 Month of Sea time sailed on-board ship.

After completing my university education in canada, I'm planning on applying for PR via Express Entry. But the problem is I don't have continuous 1 year of job experience as we can not sail more then 11 month according to MLC convention. After getting job in canada, can I apply for PR ? If I start working in Canada after getting job, can I update my canadian job experience after completing one year? Although I will get only 1 year of PGWP, Is it possible to get it extended.

Please advise @legalfalcon @jes_ON @DelPiero07
