You got a Work Permit and you have been working in Canada for the past two years. You must know the NOC Category and the level at which you were hired. You could not have got into Canada without the basic requirements and all of this is implied from your first entry. Now you have TWO Good Years under your belt. So, hang in there.
You have an Employer and they have HR department. Get a letter of employment and all of the help from them to obtain your PR and get your Work permit Extended. Some Employers even pay the fees too.
You can surely apply for your PR, without me asking for all of the details. But you will do better visiting the DIXIE-BURNHAMTHORPE Immigrant Help Center and they will help you file your papers and their services are free. Please see the previous thread.You will get all of the details there.
Good Luck.

Dear Full House
Happy new year!
I have 2 years of work experience, but that category is banned for PR. My work permit is valid until August 2015. I am looking for a new job. My query is what if I find a PR compliant job, which may or may not be a permanent one, then what are my chances in obtaining a years experience which is mandatory for PR.
Will I be Be able to apply for extension on my work permit?
Or my other option maybe to apply for a study permit for masters. Will my study permit be strictly for the period of my study or would I get enough time to look for a job.
Please give me some solution towards being eligible for PR.
Would appreciate your earliest response.
Best regards

Your situation requires more analysis and Full House really gave a good suggestion where you can get a free help.
If you can show / prove that you are working or worked in Canada on a skilled job ( Noc 0, A or B) atleast for one year and if you have required English score ( CLB 7 for O or A level and CLB 5 for B level), then you can apply under Canadian Experience Class ( Express Entry). If you apply correctly, soon you will be in the system ( as they are supposed to be processing things very fast) .... and you will be able to extend your work permit ( bridging work permit).
If not get an admission in a college/university and extend your status as student for now or find an employer who can do LMIA for you to extend your work permit.
The best part is.. YOU are HERE.... Inside Canada. You have TWO good years Experience. You have a WORK PERMIT TILL AUGUST 2015. You have a JOb, arranged or otherwise. It only takes a FEW months to get your PR status. May be just three or Four. After that who cares. You are a PR and you are here with us, continuing your stay for GOOD.
Hang in there. Carry on smartly. Think about the alternate plans (Plan B) only if it calls for. In your case, I don't see the need for one.
Good Luck. Now go and celebrate, the next one is on.....!!
