Hey, how are you ? I am planning on applying to the express entry program, therefore, I need to show my work experience, as I have worked as an independent lawyer for most of the time I need to know if someone has been able to show the experience and which documents did the person use. Thanks in advance.
 
Hey! I’m doing well, hope you are too. About your question, yes, it’s definitely possible to show your work experience as an independent lawyer for the express entry program. You’ll likely need to provide detailed documentation to prove your experience. This can include things like contracts with clients, invoices, payment proofs, reference letters from clients or colleagues, and possibly registrations with a professional legal body or tax filings that demonstrate your self-employment. It’s also a good idea to provide a detailed letter explaining your role and responsibilities to strengthen your case. I’d recommend checking the specific requirements for self-employed individuals under the program to ensure you have everything covered. Good luck with your application!
