If your profile has become ineligible, you will have to create and submit a new one. Please note you need to register on Job Bank unless and until you have an LMIA supported job offer.

Once you complete your Express Entry profile, if you are found to meet most of the requirements to enter the pool, you should get a message in your MyCIC account with this information (for Job Bank registration)

To create an account:

• go to the Job Match sign-in page
• click the “Sign up now!” button
• read the privacy notice and click “I agree”
• follow the instructions to create an account.

Hi,

You can add or delete work experience entered in your EE Profile before ITA.According to the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC), skilled work experience means:

managerial jobs (NOC skill level 0)
professional jobs (NOC skill type A)
technical jobs and skilled trades (NOC skill type B)

You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week.

Your NOC Code and Skill Level Type (0,A&B)in your EE profile must be based on the job duties mentioned in your work experience reference letter.Match your job duties with the correct NOC Code and stick to that when you submit your EE profile.

You can find more information on CIC website to find your NOC.

Thank you very much for your answer, very helpful and greatly appreciated

Hi there,
First of all thanks for all the help and useful post that got me started.
I am yet to start my application process, i have applied for IELTS and the earliest slot available is in july, well not too far, and also applied for a transcript of my university qualification.
But after reading all the forum posts, I feel a bit pessimistic, I have calculated my CRS on CRS tool page and even in best case scenario i am barely making 400 points (i am 37 years of age, with a B.Arch degree and over 10 years of experience) and at this time people with even 450 CRS aren't getting invited. So my question is, is there any use of applying? or it is just impossible with my CRS score?
Regards

Hi,
Welcome to the forum. Frankly speaking, you won't get the ITA straightaway for this points as the lowest cutoff seen till date has been 453.
Having said that, 400 is not bad either and can get you nomination from provinces. The provincial nomination gives you another 600 points and there are number of provinces with different cutoff respectively. With 400 you are eligible for most of them.

Alternate solution to get 600 points is to bag 'LMIA approved job offer' from one of the Canadian Employers.

Hi Aditya, thanks a lot for your answer. Is there any guide of provincial nomination (not about how to apply but what are the limitations of provincial nomination compare to express entry program). Reading through the forum it appears that getting an LMIA approved job offer is a pretty rare thing as well, is that so?
Thanks and Regards.

Hi,

As per my thoughts, below are the features/limitations: (Guys/Seniors please correct me where I'm wrong or missing something)

1) Getting a nomination from a province takes some time, since provinces provide a specific number of nominations each year. Their nomination program opens only a few times every year where they roll out nominations.
Hence, waiting for the nomination program to open, applying for the nomination and waiting to be nominated may take a few months.
2) One can apply to as many provinces for nomination but should be nominated from only one Province. Ideally, as soon we receive the nomination from a particular province we should inform the other provinces/territories to which we have applied and withdraw our nomination application.
3) Once nominated, we get 600 CR points boost which gets us the ITA in very next draw and regular process follows of getting the PR.
4) Provincial Nomination signifies that you've applied interest in immigrating to a particular province and hence we should be working in that Province on getting the PR. Our port of entry becomes that province and ethically we should spend some time (a couple of months) in that province. (I couldn't find any strict regulation anywhere regarding the time to spend in the province that gave you nomination, before moving out to other place).

Hope, this information is helpful.

Thanks Aditya for your helpful reply.
Yes it is a bit confusing about their condition of staying in that province, I came across posts on this forum that suggest that it would be against the law to move out of that particular province that you got nomination for. For how long, it was not made clear. I will dig into the link you posted.

Hi,

I went through lot of links on this same forum under PNP Immigration board (http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/provincial-nomination-program-immigration-b6.0/).

I've not been able to find a rule/law which says one has to stay in a particular Province for specific time. It's just that ethically we should serve the Province for some time before moving out, rather that using it just for Immigration purposes.

The.minimum that you need to score in each skill is 6.0. Please note IELTS has a major role in boosting your CRS score, so better scores means, better CRS score.
