Hi. I summitted my Express Entry profile and my actual score is 100 points lower than the CRS tool estimate. I compared the two and found out where the missing points are. I'm missing those 100 points for having an existing job offer, under the category Additional Points.

I am based in Canada with closed work permit (The work permit based on Intra company transfer - LMIA Exempt) under NOC code 60010 - TEER 0, finish already 1 year experience in Canada.

My questions as below:

- Under the question "Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the job offer in Canada?"

The options in the drop-down menu for that question are the following:

  1. Yes
  2. No

what should be the correct answer?

- Under the question "Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the current work permit?"

The options in the drop-down menu for that question are the following:

  1. Yes
  2. No
  3. No - my work permit is exempt from an LMIA due to an international agreement
  4. No - my work permit is exempt from an LMIA due to a Federal-Provincial agreement
  5. No - my work permit is exempt from an LMIA for other reasons and is employer-specific.

what should be the correct answer?

- Under the question related to my current job "Which of these categories Does XXXX job fall under?"

The options in the drop-down menu for that question are the following:

  1. No work permit required
  2. Work permit required, no LMIA required
  3. Work permit and LMIA required

what should be the correct answer?


Am I missing something? Is there another reason it won't recognize my job offer? What can I do to fix that?

I hope someone can help me with correct answers so I can get the minimum score for Express Entry.
