Personal history 10 years or since 18 years old Express Entry

[Hsingh340]

Hi Everybody,

I received the ITA and I am stuck at personal history forum. Its showing me that I have error but not specifying where exactly. I did 12th and after 4 months I was in Canada for studies so I am only filling information since 12th as I was 18 at the moment and not 10 years history. I dont have any gaps as I am putting unemployed for four months after 12th graduation and then showing Canadian studies after. This is quite frustrating, any help with what could I be doing wrong will be appreciated. Thanks.

Make sure your personal history is not conflicting with your education and work history.

could you please explain more. I came in September batch but I started my studies in next year January so I am putting sep- january as came to "canada for studies but had to wait " and then January to the year as I completed my studies. so you mean January is overlapped ?

 

[Islander216]

Yes, there is probably an overlap occurring.

Try to change to September to December - waiting and January to year of completion and see if it's okay.

Do you think putting unemployed after 12th for four month is fine as I was waiting for visa approval ?

 

[Islander216]

Of course it is, and i'm speaking from experience.

Thanks so much, also If I should separate the terms where I had to wait for four initial months to start the course and actual time period when I completed the course ? so much confusion here. what would you have done ?

 

[Islander216]

Yes, separate the two. Your education should be the exact time you started studying for the course until your completed it.

Thanks so much. I avoided the overlap and it did the work; however I had to put next month where it was overlapping, do you think it will conflict with anything or they would ask for any proofs to prove the personal history ?

Hello all,

I have received my OINP, All the best for all who are waiting.
I was filling my express entry profile. I have some questions regarding that :

I completed my studies in 2013. However I was also working full time along with my studies. So what should I show in my 10 years history as my studies and fulltime work was overlapping? any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
