Hi Everyone, I have a quick question regarding CRS points calculation for foreign work experience.

I received an ITA for EE-FSW program. I'm claiming points for full 3 years of foreign work experience.

Primary Occupation/NOC: 2173 Software Engineer
1. Work Experience 1: NOC 2172 (3 months)
2. Work Experience 2: NOC 2173 (8 months)
3. Work Experience 3: NOC 2173 (25 months)

I have minimum eligibility for FSW program by having atleast 1 year of full-time paid work experience in my Primary occupation/NOC. I can claim complete 3 years of work experience points given above scenario with 2 NOC codes? Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I wanted to confirm one thing. I have a similar situation, but I have gaps between my employment. My first full time employment was for 4 months during my Masters, from May 2016 to August 2016. Then next employment was in September 2017, and since then it is continuous. So did you also have gap between your employments? Please let me know. Thanks

Yes. Had a gap between employments. For eligibility, you need to have minimum 1 year of continuous employment in your Primary NOC. Then for counting foreign work experience, there can be gaps in employment.

Hi, just additional question. Did you include any employment during your Masters? Also, I only included my Masters in education history and Bachelors in personal history. Did you do the same? Did you get only Masters evaluated or both? Thank you.

Also, what did you mention in the Minimum qualification when you became eligible to practice your profession.

The date you were licenced to practice your profession or, if it's not licenced, the day you graduated from the level of education mentioned in your NOC code.

Hi. Ok. Thanks. But I have actually put my Masters graduation date in EE profile. Can I change it after ITA? I have claimed points for a 2016 job, and I still got points even if I mentioned my Masters qualification date of 2017. Can I change it is 2015 after ITA? And if I change it, would they ask for Bachelors evaluation too? I only got my Masters evaluation done and included it in my education history and I got full points for it. I have included Bachelors in my personal history. Please guide. Thanks
