Hi everyone, I changed my job 2 weeks before my submission. The job had been 54 weeks till the day the quit so there's no problem with the experience count. However, my agent did not add the day I quit the job in my history. She kept it "until present". Is that a problem? If so what should I do? Please help me!!
Thank you

You should add this change to your work experience section or, if you are not claiming CRS point with your new work, should at least mention it in personal history section.

I am not claiming point with this job anyway. My only concern is that because I changed my job before submission but till the day of submitting my agent did not add the end date in my work section, does it mean misrepresentation or something?

it is misinterpretation. you are required to report any change in circumstances. so if you have a new job different from the one detailed in the application, you are required to inform IRCC about it.

What should I do :( it was not even me doing it :( It was my agent. Can I write a letter to explain?

You can't blame your immigration representative since you have signed an agreement with each other and whatever he has done is equal to yours. Indeed this is a misinterpretation and you should raise a webform ASAP.

i would recommend talking to your agent first. Ideally the agent should have been aware of this. recommend that a webform be raised to inform IRCC of this change. if they agree, then you're ok. if they don't get it in writing that they were aware of your job change and yet filled the application accordingly. can decide next steps after this conversation. tip: keep it polite, you dont want to burn bridges with them at this stage
