Re: New Express Entry ranking system will be applied in Nov 19th (detail inside!)

10 Paragraphs 22(1)(d) and (e) of the Instructions are replaced by the following:
(d) 25 points, if the foreign national has one year of Canadian work experience and
(i) two or more post-secondary program credentials, one of which was issued on
completion of a post-secondary program of three years or more,
(ii) a university-level credential at the master’s level or at the level of an entry-topractice
professional degree for an occupation listed in the National Occupational
Classification matrix at Skill Level A for which licensing by a provincial regulatory
body is required, or
(iii) a university-level credential at the doctoral level; and
(e) 50 points, if the foreign national has two or more years of Canadian work experience
and
(i) two or more post-secondary program credentials, one of which was issued on
completion of a post-secondary program of three years or more,
(ii) a university-level credential at the master’s level or at the level of an entry-topractice
professional degree for an occupation listed in the National Occupational
Classification matrix at Skill Level A for which licensing by a provincial regulatory
body is required, or
(iii) a university-level credential at the doctoral level.
No more skills transferability points for canadian work experience if the applicant only has only one post-secondary credential???

Not really. People with CRS in 440 range now just waste their $1500 if they have applied for OINP.

Not being made mandatory. Only if the applicant needs those points.
Thanks for Clarification. :) I am happy I am getting 15 more points. I hope that will help in next couple of draws.

Why? They are still getting 600 points.

What do you mean "if they do it"?

The only lever they have is the number of invitations they issue.

If the number of ITAs stays the same and if the majority of candidates in the pool benefit form these changes in terms of receiving higher points, then of course the cut-off score will rise (all else being equal).
That was not the point of the supposed changes. It was to help different groups. LMIA reduction is a welcome change, the rest, from what I have seen, not so much. International student is in the same place as before. Get more points and raise the limit? haha what's the point of all this then?!

Theyve basically given the students an extra year of Canadian work experience points. Seems fair to me.

Skills Transferability changes

1. Level of foreign education & Language

a. 13 points for post secondary credential (1 year or more) & CLB 7 or higher in all areas with one or more areas below CLB 9.
b. 25 points for post secondary credential (1 year or more) & CLB 9 or higher in all areas.
c. 25 points for 2 or more degrees/Masters/PhD & CLB 7 or higher in all areas with one or more areas below CLB 9.
d. 50 points for 2 or more degrees/Masters/PhD & CLB 9 or higher in all areas.

2. Level of foreign education & CWE

a. 13 points for post secondary credential (1 year or more) & 1 year of CWE.
b. 25 points for post secondary credential (1 year or more) & 2 or more years of CWE.
c. 25 points for 2 or more degrees/Masters/PhD & 1 year of CWE.
d. 50 points for 2 or more degrees/Masters/PhD & 2 or more years of CWE.

3. Level of language & FWE

a. 13 points for 1/2 years of FWE & CLB 7 or higher in all areas with one or more areas below CLB 9.
b. 25 points for 1/2 years of FWE & CLB 9 or higher in all areas.
c. 25 points for at least 3 years of FWE & CLB 7 or higher in all areas with one or more areas below CLB 9.
d. 50 points for at least 3 years of FWE & CLB 9 or higher in all areas.

Maximum possible points on Skills Transferability remains 100 (max of 50 in each section).
Still looks the same to me. Under the current system:

CLB 9 and above + 1 year CWE - 25 points
1 year CWE + Post sec. educ. - 13 points

So what changed or are these additional points to be added? Sorry I just need to understand this well.

Correct me if I am wrong..

(a) 200 points, if the offer is for employment in an occupation contained in Major Group 00 of the National Occupation Classification; or
(b) 50 points, if the offer is any other qualifying offer of arranged employment.

if you see the NOC code list there are only 6 occupations that starts with 00 which is specifically for Senior managers only.

Does this mean that not all the NOC A and O job offers will get 200 points???

Not really. Those updates were only on sub-sub-sections (d) and (e) while (a), (b) and (c) remain unchanged.

Not everything has changed but there are minor changes in almost each sub-section.
