If i get an EP and my Salary qualifies for PEP ( before the change on sep 1st), Shall i convert EP to PEP as it gives flexibility ( Not plannin employer change but only in case of job cuts)
1.After 3 years of PEP finishes, Will i get automatic Extension ?
2. Can i switch back to EP after 3 years ( will try to apply for PR anyway), Does the company needs to sponsor again for an EP given that i converted to PEP ( heard it is one single shot PEPs)

Appreciate the Feedback in those 2 Qs.

No it won’t. From what I understand, PEP is once in a life time thing.

PEP is really last resort. I would typically convert when a co. at a certain level cannot file for EP.

PEP is a one time visa. It doesn't extend or renew. You'll need to work on EP post that. Also, around flexibility of unemployment , that's also for 6 months ! You'll lose the PEP if you're continuously unemployed for more than 6 months.

So is it not worth applying for PEP if the salary qualifies for it? Better to remain under EP? Will someone be more attractive for an employer to hire if holding PEP vs EP?

like

Atractive yes, since no EP quota is used.
But then EP is also ok and given to potential high income earners. Its only the junior/ mid management where EP becomes a big question to sponsor.
