Hello Everyone,

Can anyone help me please ?

I submitted my PhD in 2015 in India and got it awarded in 2017. However immediately after my submission in 2015, I became eligible and started working as a PostDoc in India and two years later was awarded my Ph.D degree.

Now when I am creating my express entry profile, it says “Date you first become qualified to practice in this profession”. Should it be 2015 or 2017. The day I started working or the day I was awarded my Ph.D degree.

If I mention 2015, the day I started working, will it be considered as misrepresentation by IRCC since I was awarded my PhD in 2017. I would really be grateful if anyone can help me out from this tricky situation.

Thanks
Archana
