Hey!
Just got my IELTS results, filling my EE profile now. Everything looks pretty straightforward except for this question:
Date [APPLICANT] first became qualified to practice in this occupation
If the "primary occupation" is:
- a qualified trade (four-digit code begins with 632, 633, 72, 73, 82, 92), this is the date they became qualified to practice on their own in Canada. (For example, when they moved from apprentice to being a licensed tradesperson.)
- any other job, this is the date they first obtained the minimum education or training stated in the NOC description. (Note: if the NOC only states high school, this is the date they graduated.)
I wonder if I should enter the date I finished my undergrad education, which would be 2011? However, I don't claim points for it. I've listed only my US MBA on the education tab (2019), but I got it after I got an experience I'm claiming points for (2013-2017).
Is it ok to enter the 2011 date anyway?
