Canadian experience class vs Federal Skilled Worker

[si403]

I have one year of Canadian work experience accumulated. However as of February 2017 that experience will be over 3 years ago, mid 1 year ago my work visa expired and I came back to India. Does that make me ineligible for CEC? Do I have to change my application to a Federal Skilled Worker?

Under CIC to qualify for as CEC it says you must "have at least 12 months of full-time (or an equal amount in part-time) skilled work experience in Canada in the three years before you apply"

What does this mean??

Some clarification would be great!

that means exactly whats stated " have at least 12 months of full-time (or an equal amount in part-time) skilled work experience in Canada in the three years before you apply" means you are good to apply .

so basically if you get an ITA before feb 2017 your application will be acceptable

It means you have had to have had 1 year of Canadian work experience within the last 3 years.

For example:
Worked Jan 2014 - Jan 2015 within Jan 2014 - Jan 2017 is ok.
Worked December 2013 - December 2014, the work experience won't be CEC as of Jan 2017.

I was CEC and FSW. As of Dec 12th my work experience would be outside of the 3 year rule. Now I am not eligible for CEC.

What does this mean??

If you have only 1 year of Canadian work experience, it means that the start date for your one year of experience cannot be more than 3 years old when you receive the ITA.

If your experience does "expire" before you get the ITA, you will then have to consider the eligibility requirements for FSW.

Thank you everyone for your replies! Nervous on the idea that I wont get my ITA by February 2017. (CSR - 476 right now)

Has anyone gone through the transition for CEC to FSW?? Is it complicated? Will it lower my CSR score or the chances of getting an ITA? :'(

What does your EE profile say now? It should say CEC - met, FSW - met/not met

What?

The only difference is that you will have to meet the minimum funds required.

No change in CRS or changes of getting ITA.

The only thing I was nervous about was the possibility of my CRS score changing. The fund amount that I have declared in my EE application is lower than the min of $12,164 that is needed as an FSW. If I transfer funds as a gift to in order to meet the min requirement and state that in my EE profile is that all I would need to do?

As of right now it says CEC - met, FSW - not met. If and when I do not become eligible for CEC, however I show that I meet the min proof of funds, what else would I have to do on my EE profile to change my application to FSW?

Nothing else and yes, you can get a gift deed to meet the minimum funds.
