Hi,

I have 2 years experience in one NOC code and 7 months in another NOC and 6 months in another NOC.

Q1) Can i claim work experience for 3 years?

Q2)Also what does the primary applicant have to do which the secondary applicant doesn't have to do
1. Yes. As long as you have one year continuous experience for at least one NOC.
2. Primary must do IELTS and ECAs. Secondary doesn’t but it will impact your score, and secondary can be accompanying or non accompanying (impact score too).

Hello all, by summarizing all comments and feedbacks in this topic I conclude that as long as you have 1 year of continuous experience in one NOC, you can add multiple NOC experiences to meet the full 3 years points for your CRS score.

Ex. : 2 years of NOC 1121 (type A-Primary NOC)+ 1 year of 0112 (type 0) = 3 years of experience

Still, what confuses me here is the explanation in CRS tool.

It goes:

ii. In the last 10 years, how many total years of foreign skilled work experience do you have?
"It must have been paid, full time (or an equal amount in part-time), and only in one occupation (NOC skill type 0, A or B)"

so is the bold text explaining only the 1 year that makes you eligible with your primary NOC? or is it that all 3 years must be the same NOC?

Hi Guys

I have 1 year of experience continuous work experience as a data scientist Noc 21211 (2022 - 2023). I also have work experience in other NOC in the 212 categories. These work expreinces are 9 months, 5 months, 8 months and 4 months. All of which sum up 2 years and 1 month. if I add my present experience, it sums to 3 yrs 2months. These 2 yrs 1 month work experience are not continuous. Do I claim 3years of experience when I submit my PR application for a FSW?

Hi,
I have over 8 years of experience in NOC 21232. Recently, I started working in Canada under NOC 21211 and have just 2 months of experience in this role so far. Considering that I will continue working in NOC 21211 moving forward, which NOC should I base my Express Entry profile on?

21232. You don’t even have a year of experience in 21211
