Hi,

I filled out the details and submitted my Express Entry profile (with spouse) however my total points shows 438 whereas when calculated in the CRS calculator it shows 463. I have a CLB of 9 and above in all sections with more than 3 years of foreign experience however the total points against that section shows only 25 wheres it should be 50. I believe the shortfall between 463 vs 438 is this particular section. I've sent them a message via "Report a Technical Issue" but haven't received a response as yet

Has anyone faced a similar problem ?

Let me know, Thanks
 
Verify your answers again. Especially the number of hours worked per week.
 
Hi,

Thanks, how long should it be. Had mentioned 8.5 hours ?

It seems you want to say 8.5 hours a day but in express entry profile you need to enter working hours per week..

CIC considers full time employment as 30 hours/week or more. If your 3 years experience was within that range then make sure on your GCKey account the number of hours worked under your profile is 30 or more since it is asking per week.

Just updated the changes. Does it take effect immediately ?
