Express entry profile: work history clarification

[jess@1234]

My question pertains to the work history section in the express entry profile. I have 2.5 years of full-time foreign work experience (2 years continuous in one NOC, and half a year full-time, continuous in other NOC). I am presently pursuing a doctorate (completed 2.5 years of study), and have been working as a TA on a casual basis for the duration of my PhD study (about 2.5 years). I am required to work during the semesters that averages out to 10 hours/week. Should I include this TA experience in the work experience section of my profile in addition to the 2.5 years of full-time work exp, and would this inclusion inflate my score? Of course,10 go in the hours of work box. Basically, can I claim these points in CRS profile?

If it doesn't add to your CRS then no need to put in work history, put it in personal history

There is no work section under personal details. Also, how to determine if adding the TA experience would add to the score or not? This won't be a misrepresentation as I would state the hours stated in the proof, is it though safe to add experience that is less than 15 hours/week beyond the continuous full-time experience? How many points will I get in skill transferability if I have CLB 9 + in all and only state 2.5 years of full-time experience?

Not sure about the points sorry. You can add any activity in personal history section like employment you aren't claiming points for, education, unemployment etc

Thanks for your reply, but I haven't yet received an ITA. I am at Step 1 - still filling the express entry profile which only asks personal details.
