CRS CALCULATER) How many TOTAL years of skilled work experience...?

[pls-answer]

I am calculating my CRS score using this tool on the CIC website.
We have these two questions related to one's work experience, one of which is about work experience in CANADA and the other is TOTAL work experience.

I have work experience only in Canada.
How am I supposed to answer to the second question asking how many TOTAL years of skilled work experience I have in the last 10 years?

Does this refer only to FOREIGN work experience OR ALL work experience INCLUDING Canadian exp?

PLEASE ADVISE

 

[DelPiero07]

Foreign.

So if i have 2 years of Canadian work exp and do not have any foreign work exp i should select:

i. In the last ten years, how many years of skilled work experience in Canada do you have?
2 years

ii. In the last 10 years, how many total years of skilled work experience do you have?
None to less than a year

is that correct?

Oui.

Oui.

The question reads "total years of skilled work experience" with no reference to foreign or domestic. So how did you conclude foreign? I would think total means all work experience regardless of where the experience was gained.

I happy to be corrected if I am mistaken. Please clarify.

Simply put, I know about this because I have experience that others don't.

1 - The old CRS official calculator did include the word "foreign". After an update of this calculator (on Nov 19th, 2016 to be exact) IRCC wrongfully made the mistake of omitting the word "foreign"
2 - Let's use the information given by the other poster in this thread who has 2 years of Canadian work experience and no foreign work experience. If he chooses "2 years" to the second question he will get points for 2 years of Canadian work experience and 2 years of foreign work experience. To those who know how points are awarded it will be clear that such score does not reflect the points that such applicant should have.

bro delpiero07 is correct - u can also see the points if you would choose 2 years in the next field where as i dont have it so i just go for the top option in canada exp which is 2 years

We all agree that it is absolutely ridiculous that IRCC does not specify "foreign work experience" there, but that IS what is intended. Canadian and foreign work experience are distinct categories that are treated completely differently, combining them would be meaningless.

Hi, I have a question. If I have one year of CANADIAN experience and 2 years of part time experience while pursuing my High Schooling, will that work?
Also, I did not mention my part time experience when I applied for my study permit from India so can I mention it now?
Please advise

hello,

If i have no any work experience in canada but i have 6+ year in my home country (INDIA).
i have 6 year exp. as a web developer. how i choose given option below ?

6) Work Experience

i. In the last ten years, how many years of skilled work experience in Canada do you have?
It must have been paid and full-time (or an equal amount in part-time).

Note: In Canada, the National Occupational Classification (NOC) is the official list of all the jobs in the Canadian labour market. It describes each job according to skill type, group and level.

"Skilled work" in the NOC is:

• managerial jobs (NOC Skill Level 0)
• professional jobs (NOC Skill Type A)
• technical jobs and skilled trades/manual work (NOC Skill Type B)

If you aren’t sure of the NOC level for this job, you can find your NOC.

ii. In the last 10 years, how many total years of skilled work experience do you have?

It must have been paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation (NOC skill type 0, A or B).

Not sure about this one. May have assumed you have done the ECA. Have you?

http://prntscr.com/l93c13
This one is for your FSW score, not your CRS score. It shows you are eligible for the FSW program, but it has nothing to do with your CRS score.

This one cannot be correct, since you have no Canadian work experience.

http://prntscr.com/l93eli
This one only shows the skills tranferrability component, cannot see where it is different... If you haven't done your ECA yet, you will get no points for education. If you HAVE done the ECA but misunderstood the question (it is in the same question as Canadian education), then you possibly answered that question wrong.

http://prntscr.com/l93esd
Since you have 0 years of work experience in Canada, you answer 0. There is a different question for foreign (non-Canadian) work experience.
