Hello. I just submitted it and got the same ineligible error message. Any other reason it might be like that? My experience clocked a year in September.
Express Entry Profile deemed ineligible even though I have all the requirements

There could be many reasons. Review every single question and each answer very carefully again. You are answering one or more question incorrectly. Hard for any of us to guess which one.
I did review all the questions carefully. I really took my time this time around before I submitted it.
When you say foreign, do you mean the experience from my home country? I did not include any related experience to my primary job.
I only included the 1 year experience I got here.

So either you don't qualify or you answered one or more question incorrectly in your EE profile.
I asked you if you were applying through FSW or CEC. You said FSW so you have one year of full-time, continuous foreign work experience in one NOC.
So is the experience gained while you studied or on a PGWP?
Most of the experience was gained while I was studying as we were allowed to work full time. Got my PGWP few months back. Adding up the length of full time, it is up to a full year.
How could you work full time while studying in Canada? Was this remote work? If remote, did company have no ties to Canada?
Students were allowed to work unlimited hours until 1st of May 2024 if you remember. It is not a remote job and the company is here in Canada
So work experience while you were a student for a Canadian company doesn’t count for Express Entry. That is why you are not eligible. So if you don’t have a year of foreign experience outside Canada then you are not eligible for FSW. Wait a year to be eligible for CEC.
That was what I thought but i read this on the IRCC website and that was what prompted me to apply. I was paid, It was continuous.
Student work experience
Work experience gained while you were studying may count towards your minimum requirements if the work:
Student work experience
Work experience gained while you were studying may count towards your minimum requirements if the work:
- was paid by wages or commissions
- was continuous (no gaps in employment), and
- meets all the other requirements of the Program
That's the issue then. This work experience cannot be counted towards PR since you gained it while on a study permit.
