Hi.

I do not yet have an ITA. In my EE profile there is no option for differentiating work histories of different NOC's

So would those who have got ITA please confirm if i have to :

1) Mention the work history of an NOC that I am "NOT" claiming points for, be included in personal history, or work history?

2) Need to provide offer letters/ recommendations for this work history

Thanks

BUMP...I would like to know about this as well. Also if I have 2.5 years of experience in one NOC code and another 6 months of experience in another NOC code, can I combine them to receive points for 3 years of experience? Or will CIC only consider the 2.5 years of experience for points purpose? Thanks in advance for letting me know.

Including it only in Personal history is ok if you're not claiming points for that.

2) Need to provide offer letters/ recommendations for this work history

If you're not claiming points, not required.

Thanks

EE is NOC independent so it will add up experiences across multiple NOCs.

So just to clarify, CIC CRS score calculator states skilled experience must have been continuous, paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation but you are saying they add up experience across multiple NOCs/occupations? Can you provide a source for this information?

Ministerial Instructions for EE ---> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/mi/express-entry.asp

Look at Sec 15(3) for Canadian Work Experience and Sec 25(1) for Foreign Work Experience. Copying the common line here...

is acquired by a foreign national outside Canada in one or more occupations listed in Skill Type 0 Management Occupations or Skill Level A or B of the National Occupational Classification matrix;

What CIC CRS calculator states is also correct in the limited context of deciding program eligibility.

Hope this clarifies. All the best!
