Express Entry Profile Glitch

[Azoba]

Hi Everybody,

I have been a silent member of this forum for quite some time now. Thanks to all for the helpful info!!!!

Ok, now for my ordeal... My wife and I created our profile in January and since then we have been working on "upping" our score (new IELTS, ECA, etc). Yesterday I upgraded our profile after we got a new IELTS score (CLB 9 across the board) and something really weird is happening... The sum of ALL CRS factors is equal to 470 points, but the OVERALL SCORE displayed is of only 445

I triple checked everything... and unless my score is updated in the next 24 hours I may stay out of the next draw, for which we have a great fighting chance.

I can put a screenshot here as soon as I figure out how to do it... It is insane!!! On my profile page, under "Profile Details" it shows the following:

Federal Skilled Worker-----------Met
Provincial Nominee Program-----Not Met
Canadian Experience Class-------Not Met
Federal Skilled Trades------------Met
Overall Score----------------------445
CRS - Human Capital - Age-------80
CRS - Human Capital - Level of Education------112
CRS - Human Capital - First Official Language Proficiency-------125
CRS - Human Capital - Second Official Language Proficiency-----0
CRS - Human Capital - Canadian Work Experience ---------------0
CRS - Spouse - Level of Education----------8
CRS - Spouse - First Official Language Proficiency ----------20
CRS - Spouse - Canadian Work Experience----------0
CRS - Skill Transferability - Education-----------25
CRS - Skill Transferability - Foreign Work Experience----------50
CRS - Skill Transferability - Certificate of Qualification---------50
CRS - Arranged Employment-----------0
CRS - Provincial/Territorial Nomination------0
Express Entry Profile Effective Date-----3-January-2015
Express Entry Client Expiry Date--------3-January-2016

So, unless I am crazy and dropped 500 iQ points by dealing with CIC, adding the CRS I have would result on the following:

80 + 112 + 125 + 8 + 20 + 25 + 50 + 50 = 470!!!! and not 445 as my Overall Score says...

Any guesses on what's going on? I know sometimes the score displayed is not the correct one for a little while, but is over 24 hours now and it has not changed. Am I doing something wrong????

Thanks to all and keep strong!!!!!

Sorry about the topic smiley!!! Didn't mean to do it!!! Moderators please correct if against the rules. My sincere apologies!!!

You could delete your profile and start a new one tonight to be ready for tomorrow. I speak from experience when I say don't trust CIC's Express Entry software to ever update itself or work correctly

I am NOT AT ALL SURE about this, so go back and check, but off the top of my head I think the top number of points you can have for skill transferability is 100. You got 125, of which they allowed you 100 in your total score.... but like I said, you or someone else could contradict me, and I wouldn't be surprised!

That's the exact reason.

Hey Dobes and tszanon! Thanks for the replies.

I think you may be right. It is, very possibly, another one of those CIC "you're too qualified to come to Canada" things...

I guess unless the points drop below 450 I will be stuck.

Thanks

They will. I mean, we've already been to 453 twice, and you're only a few points away.... Good luck!
