(reposting my question again, seeking attention!!)
Hi all,

My experience(3+) include 1 year of experience in India when I was enrolled in a full time undergrad course. I was paid in cash and I thought of it as a supporting income for my studies. I did not pay taxes as it was not required for the amount money I was receiving (under tax exception). I thought of it as a nice side income for me to support my studies, this was 6 years ago and the co-op agreements are not a thing when I was studying in India.

Now, I am about to open an express entry profile, just wanted to make sure that I am not missing anything. Please let me know if I can show this period of my experience.

A special permission letter from the principal of my collage, do I need a co-op agreement? I only have the permission letter (along with the Experience letter) from my principal which I had to show to the head of department as an explanation for my occasional absence to classes.

Do you suggest attaching an explanation letter once I receive an ITA for this working period? or is it better to not show this experience?


Total Experience: 3+ years ( including the one year experience from when I was enrolled as an under grad )
Age: 27
I have been continuously working from two years in the same role.
I have a good IELTS score, only thing that is stopping me right now is this decision. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

Thanks a ton!

If you need the work experience to improve your CRS to reach ITA level then you should include it and document it with a work experience letter. If it doesn't affect your CRS leave it out.
