Requirements of Canadian Experience Class Express Entry PR

[kvrforum]

Hey guys,

I got a question regarding requirements of Canadian Experience Class Express Entry PR application.

As far as I can understand, this Canadian Experience class wants a good CELPIP score and just one year of work experience in Canada.
Is that right?

I already have qualifying CELPIP score.

I think I might get a working holiday visa soon. Once I work one year with a working holiday VISA, do I qualify for CEC EE?
Also, what's my chance of getting a PR?
I don't have an advanced degree and Canadian relatives.
I can get a job offer with approved LMIA now. If I start working now, will I be able to get a PR during the early next year?

LMIA gives you 600 points out of the box. With qualifying CELPIP score you should be good to apply for EE right away.

The problem is I don't have advanced degrees.

I dropped out from college and am trying to finish it by testing out some exams at the college. It will take me one year.

My lawyer told me to applying through Canadian Experience Class after gaining work experience will help me.
So, is requirement for Canadian Experience Class EE PR just 1 year of skilled work experience in Canada?
Does that make me qualify for PR?
Also, how long does it take to get a PR after applying as CEC EE?

Thanks!

If you can get an LMIA, it doesn't matter whether you have an advanced degree or not. If you have an LMIA, 1 year of work experience in Canada, and qualifying CELPIP scores, you'll be invited to apply through EE.

I don't have 1 year of work experience.
In this case, should I just work 1 year straight till I fill that requirement?

Also, once I submit my CEC EE app for PR, how long does it take to get a PR card?
I hope it doesn't take too long.....

Most of your questions would be better suited for the EE section of this forum, but you cannot apply until after you have the one year of Canadian work experience.

Yeah.. that's the problem.
I need to fill that one year up ASAP.

How long does it take to get a PR card after submitting CEC EE?

Also, should LMIA belong to Skill Type 0 (managerial occupations) or Skill Level A (professional occupations) or B (technical occupations and skilled trades)????????????
I hope not. One LMIA I got belongs to B but the other belongs to C......

NOC C isn't valid for CEC.

Yes.. thanks for that info.

I was about to waste some big time.

Do you guys know if I can have two full time jobs in both C and B at the same time with two valid work permits?

Could be possible, I don't know. You can call CIC to ask.

But looks complicated. I would like to suggest go for the NOC B job.

If you are in Working holidays, start to work NOC B soon, later continue with LMIA (probably limited to 1 year, I think). You need 1 year experience but to get 600 points you should apply before your WP with LMIA expires, so you need to start to work before WP with LMIA, if possible.
