Hi All,
I'm working full time in a A grade NOC designation, with an open work permit, I have submitted my EE profile yesterday, but i dont see the marks for Job offer in my profile,

CRS tool shows me 473 marks but the profile now shows 423 (50 points missing are from the job offer)

In my profile, I dont Have LMIA for my job offer,

Under intended work, below are my answers

====================================
Information about the Labour Market Impact Assessment
Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the job offer in Canada?
NO
Is <Name> currently working in Canada? (required)
Yes
Does <Name> have a valid work permit for the current job in Canada?
Yes
Is <Name>'s job offer from the employer named on the current work permit? (required)
no
Has <Name> been working full-time for the employer on their current work permit for at least one year?
Yes
Four digit NOC code of current work permit (required)
2173
Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the current work permit?
NO

====================================


When i read about LMIA,
I came across this article
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/eligibility/offer-employment/lmia-exempt.html
it says
-----------------------------------------------------
For Express Entry, your employer doesn’t need an LMIA if you:
  1. have been working full-time for the employer on your work permit for at least one year (or an equal amount of part-time work)
  2. have a valid job offer, and
  3. have a valid work permit that is exempt from an LMIA under
    • an international agreement
    • a federal-provincial agreement or
    • the “Canadian interests” category
-----------------------------------------------------

my case goes under statement number one,


can someone help me to understand whats going on here. without job offer points i dont get enough points to qualify.

Simply put, you are not entitled to those points as you're working on an open work permit.

Hi @thanura1988,
Even I have a discrepancy between my EE profile and CRS tool Points.
It is on Job Offer - missing 80 Points
Please let me know what you did after. Did you consult any one? Did you able to get the actual points?
Please do let me know. I really appreciate your help.

Thanks
