Hi Members,

I think I am in need of an urgent response. I got my ITA 2 weeks ago in CEC stream. My points were 454 because of my work experience. I recently started a job in September which I put in my profile and I got the ITA as my points were matched to the score of the draw. But after my ITA, I was terminated and I had to leave the job. I didn't even work a full month. Now, when I am completing the application, should I keep this job in the work history section or No? Coz when I am removing this short term job, My score becomes lower than the draw score but if I keep it, it remains the same. And if I keep it in work history, I'll have to show the letter and also show that I didn't even work full month. Will that affect my application??
Also second question, I worked in India with my dad in his Travel company for 2-3 years before coming to Canada. It was back in 2008-2011. I showed that job experience when I applied for my study permit. But I didn't put that experience in work history section in EE profile, as I won't be able to get any salary slips as I was paid cash/cheque and it was family business. I can get the letter though but the business is not there anymore.
My question is, if I should put that experience in my EE profile by declining the invitation for now as that can boost up my score, as compared to the above mentioned short term job experience. Some people told me that job experience from that long ago, they don't worry about it much.
But I need your guidance. Please advice :)

You cannot remove the 1 month work exp if it decreases your score. Your application will be refused.
If removing it and adding your old 2008-2011 work exp does not change your score you can do it. Cic considers past 10 yr work exp.

Hi, thank you for your response.
But if I add my old work experience, it shoots up my points to 479. Will that affect the process or will they inquire much into this old job?

Increase in points won't "affect the process" in either negative or positive way. they just try and make sure your score is above the ITA round.

Having said that as navinball says above that you need to have employment reference letter to prove that work experience.
