In regards to periods of employment in my personal history that are not under the NOC code I am applying with.

the question is. Do I have to include the not related employment in my work history. For example. I am an engineer and I am applying for PR as engineer NOC, I listed all my employment as an engineer in work history. I also spent a year just working as an administrative assistant but nothing to do with engineering. I put that admin position in my personal history BUT NOT my work history. I also had menial jobs at certain times painting part time and the like... should i include all that and do I have to get reference stuff for all that part time other work??

Is this the correct thing to do?
and can CIC come back and say we need supporting documentation for that period of time you spent as admin assistant?

Not required. You're doing the right thing by keeping these out of your work history.

They wouldn't care about it as long as you don't claim CRS points based on this experience and if it doesn't matter to your program eligibility.

I was searching through the forum for a post like this and thanks for this.

Couple of additional questions

1. the CIC tool has already added my work history in my personal history section. Should i keep it ? I believe the answer is yes.

2. Is there any additional supporting documentation I should show for the employment I am not claiming points for, but adding to personal history? I believe the answer is no, but I felt over eager as I had all the documents but am not claiming points, so it doesn't matter I think.
