    I don't understand the new Express Entry version of CEC. Please help..?

    I see. So I read that with OINP nomination, people can get a lot of extra points as well. Will this nomination something like the International Students with Job Offer? Or is this OINP EE?

    I don't understand the new Express Entry version of CEC. Please help..?

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, I meant OINP (with international student with job offer). I now know EE is the way to go. But I have another question. Let's say I am above the cut-off score of the EE when I first entered the applicant pool (since the score is pretty low now). How long would it take...

    I don't understand the new Express Entry version of CEC. Please help..?

    Thanks for your reply. About the last sentence, that's why I was confused if we still need the 1 year of experience for CEC. We will get significantly higher points if we have a job offer, right?

    Hi guys, 1. I know that the previous CEC required 1 year of experience, and you apply for PR, and you are guaranteed a PR. But with EE, do you still NEED 1 year of experience? Or if you have a job offer and meet english requirements, age, etc and the EE point is high, you can get the invite to...
