Hello guys, I hope someone would be able to answer me here. So I'm on Post-grad work permit in Canada, graduated recently so I do not have the one year Canadian work experience yet (Still searching for a full-time job). However, I have work experience from my home country after I graduated from High school. I worked as an administrative assistant from Mid 2005- August 2008. I want to use this experience to enter the Express entry pool but I have two concerns:

1. In all my previous applications to CIC (Study permit application/renewal, TRV application/Renewal etc) I have never included this work experience in those applications where they ask work history since ten years ago (I just put student). Would it be a problem if I now use this work experience to apply for Express Entry?

2. My salary was paid in cash, so no pay stub, bank statement or you name it. How would I be able to prove this to CIC?

I would highly appreciate it if someone would provide detailed answers to my questions.

Thanks.
So far I know, Your work experiences prior to your graduation are not counted. Better if you work for a year and then apply for the immigration, or you can look for PNP programs...

Hello People!
I have one more question, while creating EE profile, in terms of work experience it has options Two - Three and Four - Five, and nothing in between. I have 3.8 years of it.
Which one shall I chose?

Thanks!

I just do not understand the reason to point changes from 19th why not 16th, so everyone will have updated scores before the draw comes.
I am guessing they must have recieved new profiles in the pool with 600 points after the last draw as well as during the current week and probably they are just giving them a chance to get an ITA rather than deducting their points. After 16th anybody who may create a profile with a LMIA might only get 50 points.....Who Knows!! :p :p

Hey guys,
Does the new changes means a candidate having two years of canadian post secondary education without a LMIA is eligible for an extra 15 points ?
And a PGWP holder still needs LMIA to get 50 points right ?

Folks - Is it going to be a big scam to obtain the job offer? Please watch this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBZnXW8l1xE

from 6:50 onwards. It appears, LMIA is not going to be mandatory to obtain the job offer. If that is the case, job offer will be purchased to obtain 50 or 200 points and will be part of the scam. Isn't it?

The genuine applicants would again be at the receiving end. Thoughts???

It is not going to be easy as they need your employer name on your work permit if it is ICT and it is mandatory to work for one year. Also, it is mandatory that you are working for the same employer.

I feel Work permits will become tougher for all categories. More scrutiny will happen.

I feel your excitement however staggering massive changes over several weeks is not how government's work. I believe the changes for this year have been made. I don't believe there will be anymore until next year's quota.

Hi There =D,

I have question about the LMIA/qualified arranged employment.
Does this have this permanent job offer and indeterminate to obtain either 50 points or 200 points?

Thanks =D
