But who says $2-$4 difference is fine? Where are you getting this information from? Do you work in the IRCC and do you know that an immigration officer starts flagging applications when a wage is specifically $2-$4 below the median wage and starts demanding more proof? Please provide evidence.

This is basically like saying that because Canada has a high demand for immigrants, they'll ignore integrity/legal processes and hand out PR just because nobody wants to do the work.

Congratulations. I'm curious, given the huge mismatch between your engineering wage and the median, what proof did you provide that you could do the job? I've prepared my reference letters, ROE, R4 and screenshots of my work that I'm going to provide in an LOE with my name on work material to...

I'm sorry, maybe I misinterpreted this, but where does it specifically say that "the onus is on the applicant to be able to prove that they have the required number of years of Skilled work experience, in their designated NOC(s)"? CEC doesn't require you to have any prior experience in your...

Noted. So you got your PR in the end?

Thank you for clarifying, your previous statement that "this doesn't mean officers are stupid and they will disregard a non logical combination of wage and duties. A supervisor, a technician whatever it is cannot be earning minimum wage". The way you said it implies that officers will reject an...

I 100% disagree with you, you'd be very surprised to learn about how little people are willing to earn in areas where there aren't many jobs (especially when COVID caused so much uncertainty). I had colleagues who would be in $60k-90k jobs in cities making $14 to $18 an hour in small towns - I...

What do they ask for in 'work history'? Thank you!!

Would you mind sharing a screenshot of what documents they have asked you to provide? Also, what NOC did you pick as your primary? Cheers, it'll e really useful for all of us.

Lucky you.

That's correct, when I submitted my profile with one year as a test I got 67/431. By the way, IRCC today sent me a message that answers the topic of this thread. "Hi. We consider a year of work experience to be 12 complete months (for at least 1560 hours). Even if you meet the minimum hourly...

Sorry to hear that, but you have a score of 563 right? Wouldn't that make you eligible even for FSW?

Me too - but I've also heard that because it will still be hard to get FSW candidates to come over they may do mixes of All Program and CEC-only draws (that was suggested by Cambell Cohen in a previous blog). You also never know when they'll invite everyone in the pool again like they did...

As a worker or manager?

We're living together and will soon meet the common-law definition, so I'm asking for common-law sponsorship and what is adequate proof to prove common-law status. We have no interest in marriage.

I'm not eligible when I select "less than 1 year". It gives me 0 points for it (I only get to 431 CRS with one year Canadian experience). Did I do the wrong thing by making an EE profile now to submit when I hit one year???

Hello, I'm living with my Canadian girlfriend. I'm trying to get a CEC invitation first but my GF will back me up with spousal sponsorship if need be. Aside from photos/chat logs: We have a joint lease agreement. Plane tickets to prove we visited her parents in her hometown. All addresses for...

I'm confused about this. I started work on 26 October 2020. I created an EE profile and selected "one year or more" for Canadian work experience. But I'm planning to submit my EE profile on 27 October 2021, one day after hitting the full 52 weeks (my jobs have been full-time). Am I missing...

I started on 26 October 2020 and was advised on this forum to wait till 27 October 2021 to apply for CEC. I'd take it the same principle should apply to you. They can reject your application after you get your ITA (potentially even book you for misrepresentation) if you didn't meet one year when...

Are you gloating or something? How do you even get a 563 score??
