Hello, I'm preparing to lodge my Express Entry profile when I hit one year of experience for CEC. I have a skilled job (NOC A, 1123).
I started working full-time on 26 October 2020. When exactly can I apply? On 1 October 2021 (technically 12 months) or 26 October 2021 (52 weeks)?
Also, I only did NOC 1123 when I came to Canada. Most of my skilled experience back home is in a different NOC. Do I put 1123 in my primary occupation or the NOC (5121) I have more experience in? How many years of foreign experience are counted towards your CRS score? And does your foreign experience have to be the same as the primary NOC to receive max CRS points?
