Default Question For Andrew: Work Visas and continuous employment

Hi Andrew [or anyone else who might have the answer]

I have a couple of quick questions. I am just finishing my one year of continuous employment required for permanent residency, HOWEVER I have been offered a job at another company - the position would start two weeks before I reach the one year mark. If I do not skip a single day and go from one job to another [with mildly different titles but completely separate employers = broadcast media coordinator versus distribution coordinator] does this count as continual employment? Or would it mean that I do not qualify for one years continuous employment [even though I would still have one year of continual employment but just not with the same company]

Also. The position I am going for would want to sponsor me with a twp while I wait for my pr to come through. Would it count in my favour that they would like me to go back and forth to england to work once in a while? I am not a senior employer so my new employer would like to try to use as many angles as possible to secure the position.

All / any help is as ever appreciated.

Hope your weather is better than Toronto's today!
thanks!

If you move from one employer to another and do it without taking any break then you will be continuously employed.

Thanks Andrew

I know these things can be tricky so I want to get it right! I get scared that I will goof up and be back to square one!
