This is a common question and has been answered several times.
Proper answer is too long to be answered in an ROH thread.
I suggest you try to search for related threads for the information first. That way it is easier to get a clear idea.
A quick search could lead you to several posts about PNP.
For example: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/understanding-pnp-its-obligation-to-live-in-province-and-pr-status.502209/#post-6115455
Even those who landed in Canada have a hard time finding the right job. Competition is at an all-time high. If you have some niche-skills, the recruiters will get back to you. Good luck.
I am not worried as I already selected wife and child accompanying. It is just I got into that debate in the middle because I somewhat read most of the replies on that topic. Your point further elaborates as to why it is OK to not accompany your spouse. Family sponsorship has its own rules and regulations so you cannot trick them.
I have been living in Toronto since 2014, just start to get my PR done. But all my friends, nobody complaints that they have a hard time to get a job both physical job to professional job. Wage may be low than expected but is still ok. Just be patient and not lazy. Door always opens, even one door closes, another one will open later.
Thanx for your update..
I'm the primary applicant.
Please find my edited post below.
Hey guys, need a couple of clarifications.
I am the primary applicant having IELTS CLB 9 (R-8.5 , L-8, S-7.5 and W-7.5), have received ECA for Master's, having 7+ years experience.
Currently awaiting Spouse ECA (due by Jan 28th 2019), post which CRS will be 440. I have got the experience letter from all the organizations I have worked with, and do I need to do the same for my spouse?
1. In the Application, I have declared all my spouse organization details, where she worked earlier. Once I get my ITA, should I provide my spouse experience letters as well?
2. Would it be better for me to wait for my spouse's IELTS exam (will take approx 2 months, and if she gets band 6 in all, CRS points will increase to 446), or should I apply for any PNP (my NOC Code is 2172). If i need to apply for PNP, which would be the best to apply for, and which Provinces have more requirements for my NOC
Alright.
1) if you declare all her work experience you must provide a reference letter for each of them and try to do your best to get a good one as per IRCC requirements, if you can't get reference letter then you should explain in your LoE along with your denial email or letter received by those companies.
Remember this route is so difficult and your application will take longer processing time than you expect.
2) you can do either way, if you get an expression of interest by any province you may apply through provincial program but if your spouse can get better band in ielts then this way will be easier coz you may get a direct ita.
Hard if you aren't there already. I have been applying for about 2 months, most of them were rejects.
Also, don't expect them to get back to you within a week
Please take a look at the post below regarding proof of spouse foreign work exp. It is the approach that has already worked for at least few people and really makes sense to me either.
I know that system automatically asks and demands you to provide spouse work exp (reference letters) when applying for PR. But I really do not see why would I or anybody of us have to provide them with those letters for foreign work exp when that is not required in their document checklist on official website. I will, as I already wrote, upload LoE in the placeholders for spouse work exp stating that
1) as per their instructions reference letters for foreign work exp are not required
2) we did not get any points for it
Please find below the exact wording from their official website as well as link for the same
Individuals who must submit this documentation
- The principal applicant
- Their spouse or common-law partner (if work experience in Canada is claimed)
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/permanent-residence/express-entry/applications-received-on-after-january-1-2016-completeness-check.html
Alright. You can do the way it's right. My way was approved and got my PR. Hopefully yours will be also approved. Good luck!
I agree that if it is easy to get those letters it is perfectly fine and the clearest thing to do. For me that is not the case.
I researched every posible online discussion on this topic and most of the people got around this problem by answering NO on a question does your spouse has work experience and later filling out personal history section with all the details. As far as I could see nobody reported being rejected for misrepresentation eventhough there is in that case discrepancy between EE profile data and post-ITA data.
I, however feel that the approach I decided to take is better and less in risk of misrepresentation and the same was taken by some people who succeded in getting PR as can be seen in the link below

What is your opinion on this?
Thanks
You don't get any rejection for your dependent work experience if you don't claim any points, including the ones you have. It means we fill out pre ita application for points based questions and when we get ita a big game starts, we don't have to hide anything, fornthis reason they created personal history section. We should put all info into that section which is crucial for background checking. Work experience section should be filled out for any points you claim, if your dependent has any Canadian work experience so yes you can inform IRCC through this section but if that work experience doesn't count towards your profile points then just put those experiences into personal history. This way you will make an easy work for immigration officer, your application won't be complicated.
During 2016 and 2017 we had so many debates on this issue, but at the end either way will work out if you do a proper documentation. It's true that one of these ways will get more time and attention while getting all documents.
