Hi,

One of my friend's is planning to apply for express entry for Ontario. While checking the eligibility the IRCC website is asking if she has experience in the following categories:

In the last five years, do you have at least two years of experience in one of these types of jobs (skilled trades)?
  • industrial, electrical and construction trades (NOC codes that start in 72)
  • maintenance and equipment operation trades (NOC codes that start in 73)
  • supervisors and technical jobs in natural resources, agriculture and related production (NOC codes that start in 82)
  • processing, manufacturing and utilities supervisors and central control operators (NOC codes that start in 92)
  • chefs and cooks or (NOC codes that start in 632)
  • butchers and bakers (NOC codes that start in 633
Will she get additional points (under 67 pass mark/CRS) if she can show experience in any of the above categories? If yes, how many points will she get? Will there be any other benefit for showing experience in this? If yes, what will that be?

Appreciate if you could please provide links to IRCC web pages where this is addressed.

Many thanks!

You are mixing two programs with different criteria.

1. Is she eligible for Express Entry? Looks like she is hoping to immigrate through the Federal Skilled Trades Stream so what is her NOC. She doesn’t get extra points for the jobs listed unlesss she is provincially certified in a trade. Also to be eligible, she needs to have a
  • valid job offer of full-time employment for a total period of at least 1 year or
  • certificate of qualification in that skilled trade issued by a Canadian provincial, territorial or federal authority
Does your friend have either?

2. For Ontario’s EE FST stream she needs one year of work experience in Ontario. Is she working in Ontario?

Thank you for your reply.
My friend does not have any Canadian certification or experience.

The questions came up in the website when she started checking her eligibility for EE here https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/c2c/eapp.do
In the above link she wanted to know what to enter as she has experience in one of the skilled trades in India for two years. She wanted to know if she'll get extra points for the experience in India.

If in a NOC A, B or 0 job she can claim for Federal skilled worker stream. There are no extra points.

Hi Experts,

I have a query. My wife's sister is based in Canada and is now a Citizen. But, we are not claiming points for that (Do not have Birth Certificate etc. to submit). I received my ITA. The issue is that when filling in my Wife's FAMILY DETAILS, if we enter her sister's details showing her to be in Canada, the system automatically adds 15 points and will subsequently ask us to upload supporting documents. What is the way out? We cannot skip entering her details either. Please suggest.
Thanks.

Regards

I have applied for FSW program in express entry and I have a query regarding showing work experience. My current work in NOC 2151 is from Jan 2019 (2 years - 3 months) . Before that I worked from July - December 2018 (6 months) in same NOC. I also had a paid internship during my undergraduate program from June - September 2016 (4 months). What my query is that the paid internship was a part of my undergraduate program so, can I consider it for my FSW program? With the help of my 4 months of paid internship, I am able to complete my 3 years of work experience and it helps me get much more points for my profile in express entry.
Please anybody can throw some light on this and help?

Yes you can count the internship if skilled. You will need mandatory employment letters for the jobs.

Query regarding the Proof of Funds,

My wife is the main applicant and I have invested a sufficient amount of funds in Mutual funds to suffice the application requirements.

I have still added my spouse name as a Nominee in that Demat account. will that work while showcasing the Proof Of funds?

Your SINP is the minimum score with draws of 68+ so you will need to look at another province...Maybe Alberta. Check their draw scores. Alberta doesn’t post what NOCs they select. Overall your CRS score is low without a job offer.
