Hi All,

I was on WP for past 2.5 years with two different employer.

If now I move to HSMP status, will the counter for number of years for PR will be reset....?

Regards

Yes it is as long as your WP is continous and your HSMP is direct switching from your WP.

Good luck

Sorry , could you pls clarify little further.

I would switch from WP to HSMP ( my WP would expire in 2010).

Will my earlier years spent on WP will not be considered towards PR eligibility once I move to HSMP ?

Your earlier years on WP will be counted for PR....So once you complete 5 years total (WP +HSMP) the you can apply for PR.....

Good Luck....
