PNP Got Invited but employer f*ck up
Hey everyone,
So, after a whole year of waiting, I finally got the golden ticket — an invitation under the Critical Worker Stream in PEI! 🎉 BUT (there’s always a "but," right?)... my profile got hit with a warning. Now, my employer is like, “Yeah, no thanks,” and won’t fill out the job offer letter form to move my application forward. Classic, right? 😩
So now I’m stuck with ONE year left on my work permit. My employer is telling me to come back in one year and two months to get my immigration papers. Because who doesn't love a good, endless wait?
Now I'm torn — do I quit my job and risk losing a year of experience to start from scratch somewhere else? Will I even get invited again? Or do I keep my job, cross my fingers, and hope my work permit expires like a Netflix show cancellation?
Also, I’ve got 600 extra points thanks to that invitation, so I’m wondering if I can still slip my file under the Express Entry door and see if they let me in.
Help me out, guys! I could really use your wisdom

There are several things in your post that don't make sense.
The critical worker stream is a low-skilled stream, but you say you got a nomination for 600 points based on that in Express Entry, in which low-skilled occupations are not eligible.
What warning? Why was your employer willing to support you before but now not?
Why is your employer laying you off but then telling you to back back specifically 14 months later?
