Hi guys,

I need some advice. I am already in the express entry pool already with the CRS score of 379.

My question is if I find a company ready to offer me a TFW visa through LMIA for a low skilled job should I take it or wait until the score drops to 379 through express entry.

Please advise as I am applying from India.

Many thanks.

Whichever works faster for you. The score limit of 379 might take time to reach. It might reach after 8 draws. If somebody offers you job, then you get plus 600! You score would be 979 and you would ITA anytime after you have 979 score.

So this is for a low skilled job right? You will not be getting those 600 points. you will only be allowed to work as general labour etc for 3 years

Yes, its for a job as a Front Desk Clerk.

What do you suggest, is it better to enter into the land as a Low skilled worker and then apply through Express entry once the point drops to 379..

Kindly advise..

Go ahead !!!! Apply now for EE AAAANNNDDD get the job !!!! They are not excluding each other. Earn the canadian experience and you will be ready when your ITA comes later in this year, remember also that after you apply with ITA, most probably another 6 months will pass by before you get a PR.

So one year from now you would get and land on a PR, While lose the experience earned in Canada for 1 year ?????

Thank you so very much for the reply.

Just a quick question, all the points that we earn for Canadian experience in express is only for skilled work experience (NOC 0, A or B) or even the experience we gain through NOC C or D is counted as Canadian experience and given points.

Please clarify.
