Hello Experts,

I have a question regarding the Post-graduation diploma I completed in Canada.

1. My program was 3 years long, but because I was a master's from India I got credentials for one year and I completed my course as a fast track course in 16 months which was the remaining program in almost 2 years.
My question is what is the number of year I mention in my profile for the following question Complete/full academic years? 2 years or 3 years? How can i verify this?

Hello Everyone,

I need some expert advise with my express entry profile. First of all the following is my work experience:

1.) July 2011 - Aug 2012 - USA software engineer company 1
2.) Aug 2012 - June 2013 - USA software engineer company 2
3.) April 2014 - March 2016 - Business development officer for a chemical company on sales based commission in India (Not an employee here, but earn percentage on sales)

Can you please suggest what to put down on the profile. I think I already qualify for Express entry FSW because of No 1.

What is tricky is No 3. As it is on commission basis with just 1 client, will it be called self-employed? If yes that under what NOC to apply for it? And is it the case that such work experience will not count at all for express entry?

Thanks in advance. I have gained tremendous info about most things by reading through this forum. I am very grateful to the contributors Smiley

Hey all, Sorry for posting the same question again in this thread. I just saw people are being active more in this thread, so just thought I would get a proper reply here..

"
I got this strange doubt while calculating my scores in CRS calculator.

Question number 6 ( about work experience in Canada and outside canada )

6 i - How many years of skilled work experience do you have in Canada in the last 10 years.

6 ii - How many years of skilled work experience do you have in the last 10 years.

My doubt is, I have one year of experience in Canada and 2 years of experience in some other country..

I'd have to mention I have "one year" of skilled work experience in Canada.. I have no doubts in that ... but what about the second part of the 6 th question. The question says " How many years of work experience in the last 10 years " -- 2 + 1 = 3 years or just 2 years ?? Because it wasnt mentioned that "excluding Canada " or "only outside Canada".. So, does it mean the total work experience I have ( in and outside Canada)
..
Please throw some light on it.. because it makes a big difference in the scores..

Thanks.
"

Check this thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/summary-of-eligibility-requirements-for-all-express-entry-pnp-streams-t432937.0.html

Some provinces need a strong connection, others require a minimum CRS of 400 (Ontario), French can also help you get a nomination.

Go through that link and see if you're eligible.

Can't help with you with LMIA as I had an open work permit.

Cheers ;)

I would suggest asking Avisad Anac this question. It's a tricky one and I don't want to give you advice that might affect your application.

Cheers :)
