So once I have 1 year of experience, I am planning to apply for CEC with EE. But how do I prove that I have 1 year of experience in the future? Do I have to do anything at the moment? Or I just have to prepare proof of employment from the company when it's time for me to apply for a PR?

I hope to get an answer soon. Thank you so much.

Anyone? I just need to know if I need to do anything at the moment. I don't want to regret a year later I didnt prepare and not able to apply for PR.

Thanks so much.

First of all, what's EE? Electrical Engineering? If so yes, it will qualify under the A group.
if you follow the guide on how to prepare for your CEC from the CIC, it is pretty standard.
Just following everything it says and you will be fine.
Oh and get ready to get a date for elts should you require one.

Good luck.

Hopefully you are doing a skilled level job. I know it sounds like a no-brainer but I made the mistake of staying at a bank teller position for 1 full year after I graduated. All that experience does not count as cic doesnt recognize it, so I changed to something better. I know that sometimes it might take to actually get a professional job and so you have to do smaller jobs to help pay the bills, which is ok. But whatever one year experience you are doing, make sure it is for a skilled level job :)

Oh I meant Express Entry by saying EE lol. I thought it's a standard term many use here on this forum! I will find the guide on CIC website to prepare for CEC. Thanks very much.

Thanks for your advice. My NOC code is 2141 (indicated in the job responsibility form signed when I started), which it says it's skill type A on the government website. I hope I won't have to waste additional time by making mistake. I want to get a PR as soon as possible :)

The main proof of work experience is a letter from your employer, which must include details like exact dates of employment, job title, hours worked per week, remuneration/benefits, and very importantly, job duties and responsibilities (this is what IRCC uses to determine whether you have performed skilled work). Additional work records include your T4 and NOA tax documents, possibly recent paystubs, possibly a job contract, a record of employment (if you have left the position), etc. that would support the facts in the letter.

You can see what is required for applications here -
