Foreign Work Experience Calculation

[DelPiero07]

It can be counted if done outside of Canada otherwise it won't add any points.

Why do you even need to increase your score if you're at 451, you should've received an ITA already.

Thanks DelPiero - yes it is outside Canada.

Only reason I want to increase points is, looking at the cut off points from last 2 years - numbers go up quite dramatically around March end. This is the time when we are expecting to get back ECAs from WES since they are heavily backlogged.

Therefore, we are trying to be proactive and get letters from past employers now to avoid any hassles later...

I have a doubt regarding EE,
I am not sure how many years of experience I should put for foreign work experience (Or rather how much would it be calculated by IRCC) . Here is my history outside Canada (All with the same NOC A xxxx code, All full time )
Job 1 : July 11, 2012 till April 10, 2014 : 20 months 29 days
Job 2 : April 11, 2014 till March 13, 2015 : 11 months 2 days
Job 3 : April 13, 2015 till July 22, 2016: 15 months 9 days


My question is
1. Will all above experience be calculated for EE/ON PNP ? Or Job2 (because it is 11 months) wont be calculated for determining points ?

- (I see I got 25 points in transferability skills but I am not sure if that's with or without Job 2)

- Without Job2, going by actual dates, I have 36 months and 8 days (3 years + ) , going by months it is 20+15 : 35 months


Any idea how should CIC calculates the duration ?

2. I have been sent an NOI by Ontario, but it mentions gaps not allowed. I am not sure if the gap between Job 2 and Job 3 is considered a gap. Can somebody help me on this ?

Note: Your continuous full-time or part-time work experience may consist of multiple back-to-back jobs with the same or different employer(s) (with no gap in between) provided that at least one year of your work experience was in the same NOC occupation and you included this occupation as your primary NOC in your Express Entry profile.
