Hi There,

My EE application received an automatic rejection (and a CRO score of 0) despite being eligible to apply through the screening questions.

My wife and I have both:
- Done our ECA with WES ;
- Done our IELTS and received all scores above 7.5

Can anyone provide some insight?

Thanks in advance.

There are one or more questions you've answered incorrectly. It's a bit difficult to guess what those might be. Do you have enough POF? Does the primary applicant have one year of continuous work experience in the NOC they have declared? Do you score at least 67 under the FSW points system?

There was no place to upload the proof of funds in the application process?
Yes, I do have one year continuous work experience in the NOC declared.

My FSW score is 66 or 67, depending on how I calculate my first year of work (full time internship)
I have been allocating my work experience at 5 years instead of 6 which gives me a total score of 66.
Could this be my issue?

If you only have 66, you are not eligible for EE. You need 67 points.

Thanks for the heads up.

Just confirming that you apply for FSW through the EE application and it isn't a separate process?

Also, just confirming that there isn't a place to upload your proof of funds in the beginning (first stage) of the EE process?

Same process. FSW is one EE stream. You provide POF when you get ITA.

Yes, that's your issue. A score of less than 67 automatically disqualifies you.
