Express Entry application getting rejected.

[JaslineTauro]

Hi,

I applied for Express entry in April 2020 with score of 471( as per the CRS calculator) and was invited to apply.
CELPIP score: 12 in reading and listening each, 8 in speaking and 10 in writing. Canadian work experience 1 year with Valid work permit but LMIA exempt.
I have 6 years experience in India, all experience in skill set A. I had applied with "Valid job offer in hand" criteria but since this was no longer valid in my case I withdrew the application.
Now when i re-apply in May, it doesn't calculate my Canadian experience and the education points are also not added and it gives me a score of 381. I reapplied and it says the profile is non eligible as i do not meet the Federal Skilled Worker and gives me 0 points. Has there been any change in rules?

The CRS calculator still gives me 471 but not the application. I tried reaching the customer care but no luck and the web form isn't of much use as they say I'm not eligible due to my info on file. Nothing concrete mentioned.

Is it possible that application rejects the work experience which is LMIA exempt? Is it mandatory to have a job offer in hand?

Is your ECA valid? Have you inputted the reference number correctly?

Do you have 1 full year of Canadian experience? Have you calculated it properly to ensure that?

Has your CELPIP test expired, is it older than 2 years? Have you inputted the reference number correctly?

What score are you getting in EE eligibility calculator. The score out of 100?

Used the below reference

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/federal-skilled-workers/six-selection-factors-federal-skilled-workers.html

• Language skills points 24 (Reading 12, Writing 10, Listening 12, Speaking 8 (Test date March 2020) )
• Education points 21 for bachelors degree
• Work experience points 15 ( 7+ years: 6 in India and 1 in Canada under the skill set A code 2174)
• Age points 12 (18-35 yrs)
• Arranged employment in Canada points 0
• Adaptability points - 10 points for Canadian work

So total 82

My employment is LMIA exempt. Can that make a difference?
How do i reach out to the CEC to get clarity on this? Customer care and web form is not helping

You already have 1 year of canadian experience in the last 3 years, right?

So you should qualify for CEC.

Not sure how exactly LMIA plays a part in this but it might according to this link.

I reapplied with fresh application. It still says not eligible.

The only other thing I notice here that can make a huge difference in points is the bachelors degree instead of a masters.

There was a mistake in my application. Work hrs was wrongly entered. Now it has been corrected and its matching the CRS calculator score

Thanks again for checking this out!
