Profile inelegible - job related?

[silviadha]

Hello,
I tried to submit my profile again for the Express Entry. I have everything I need but I'm thinking it has to do with the work experience.

• not having a valid language test, (I did IELTS, and TEF)
• language test results that are more than two years old, (Took them less than 6 months ago)
• a language test score that is too low, (CLB 7 for all sections of IELTS. TEF got NCLC 4 writing, 5 for speaking, 8 for reading and 9 for listening)
• not having enough relevant work experience, (2 years work experience outside of Canada.)
• not having the required education level, (Bachelor ourside of Canada and a 1 year Post Graduate Certificate in Canada)
• not having enough funds. (I declared 15k CAD)
• I have an ECA for my bachelor's from ICES.

Back home, I did 6 months as Research Assistant NOC 41201, 6 months as Finance Analyts NOC 11101, and one year as data analyst 21223. In Canada I have a job, NOC 63102 for less than a year. Can you help me understand why I keep being unelegible? I have read answers that say profile inelegible happened to them becuase they had different NOC codes for job experience and when they changed the NOCs to be aligned between them it helped and also a profile that was in the pole, then updated the NOC to one that was more suitable and changed the application to profile inelegible. So I'm guessing it has to do with the NOC codes of my professional experience but I don't understand quite well. I thought that we only needed one year in a job so we could declare that one as our principal NOC. So now I don't understand what need to be the same or where I'm going wrong. Thanks!

You aren’t eligible for CEC so for FSW to be eligible you need one year of continuous skilled work experience in one NOC. Apply when eligible for CEC.

Do you have at least one year of foreign work experience that is continuous in NOC 21223? What are the exact dates in your EE profile?

 

[silviadha]

Yes I do have at least one year of foreign work experience in NOC 21223. I started May 1st 2022, and left June 1st 2023. In my EE profile I just said May 2022 to June 2023 for NOC 21223.

And you have at least 67 under the FSW point structure?

e in Canada)

And you have at least 67 under the FSW point structure?

Yes I believe so. I used three calculators I found in Google and the results are over 67. When I go to the Express Entry: FSW official page from Canada I meet all the requirements, and when summing the points I get 81 points.

So in that case you are answering one or more questions incorrectly in your profile and this is why your profile is showing as ineligible, If you cannot figure out which question or questions you need to correct yourself, then you may want to hire an immigration lawyer to help you.

 

[silviadha]

Thanks. I triple checked my points and I think I only have 63. I was wondering if my husband is a Canadian citizen, would that count for the Relatives in Canada 5 points? Partner is not listed for relative in the official page.

Spouse isn’t listed because they could sponsor you through spousal sponsorship. Why is that not an option?

If you only have 63 points, this is why your profile is ineligible. You don't meet the minimum requirements.

No. Your husband cannot be counted for 5 points. You cannot get any points at all from your husband.

Why doesn't your husband just sponsor you for PR through spousal sponsorship?

We're not living together atm and won't be able until after six months (complicated situation). But my PGWP expires in August (less than six months), so I'm trying to go for the option that willl let me stay without having to leave for a while.

Express Entry isn't an option for you since you don't have enough points to meet the minimum criteria. You'll need to look into the PNP program for the province where you are living and hope there's an option for you there.
