Good evening

Good evening
I create a profile awhile back and CIC gave me 50 points for the foreign work experiences. For what ever reason my score went down to 449 points (I was at 461).
They lower my working experience for no reason (I have 36 month)

-2011 August to 2011 September (2 month)
-2008 September to 2009 October (13 month)
-2008 April to 2008 July (4 month)
-2007 October to 2008 March (6 month)
-2007 June to 2007 July (2 month)
-2007 February to 2007 June (5 month)
-2006 February to 2006 July (6 month)

Let me know if you could help me
I contact CIC and they don't seem to understand my issue and told me that it might be my age or something (that's not)
Thank you

Probably some work exp. Certificates go wrong or the content not suited ??
Can someone post a work exp. Certificate sample to understand the requirement ?

First thank you for your answer

Second all of those experience (in my Entry Express Profile not the residency profile) are just the experience that I have as draftsperson (NOC 2253) category B
I already suppress one profile that had this issue. I did a new one today same "bug"

I was thinking about creating a profile with a CG key to see if things would change.

Ok let me try to explain it again if you do a count of how many month I have (foreign experience) I have 36 and more (3 years equal to 36 month) the thing that I don't understand is why CIC count differently??? Is there a bug on myCIC account? I try to call them but they don't seem to understand what's the matter.

Experience has to be within the last 10 years, which means that the time from February to May 2006 no longer counts and that puts you below the 3 year mark.

Also, with every month that passes, you will lose more of that oldest job experience.

If you have anything more recent I would add it, otherwise you will never get back above 3 years.

Work experience is considered for the 10 years preceding your application. The experience in 2006 has "expired," so to speak, so you no longer have 36 months...

Thank you for the information

I was wondering what about the experience that I have that's not as main job (NOC 2253) I worked a couple of month as a mechanical assembler stuff like that.

Now I guess I have to focus on the PNP or increasing my score at the french test.
