Hello, I created my EE profile with just the jobs that I wanted to claim points for. Now that I've received my ITA my work history section is pre populated with these jobs that I got CRS points for. I have the documentation to back this up. My question is where do I put the jobs that I am not claiming points for? I worked part time as a graduate research assistant and I dont think that would net me any points. I found some old threads that said that you can put those jobs in your personal history section. Is that advice still valid in 2025?
Where Do I add work experience that I am not claiming CRS scores for?
- Thread starter Pegcity
- Start date
This apply to education history as well? I had a unfinished education history, after which I transffered to a University in Canada. Should I include that history in personal history as well if I don't get points from that? Also, do I need to have a explanation letter for this situation?
I’m also a bit confused about this. I worked as a sales associate (non-skilled job) from 2021 to 2022 and now I’m an auditor (NOC 11100) since Jan 2023.
Some people say I should include all jobs in the Work History section of my Express Entry profile, while others say I should only list my skilled job and declare everything later in the Personal History after getting the ITA.
Can anyone confirm which is correct? I just want to be fully transparent and avoid any issues with my application.

Add only those jobs in work history section you want to claim points. Rest(including part time) will be in personal history.
I’m not selected yet, so where can I fill in the personal history on my GCKey profile? Or should I wait until I get selected to fill it?
In EE profile, we only have work history section. In there mention only experience that you want to claim points. Once you get ITA, you will have to go through all the details that you have submitted in EE profile. At that time, you will have more sections, like personal history, address history of past 10 years, travel history and all.
oh i was also looking for personal history in my express entry profile i couldn't find it. thank you for your reponse. so we have to wait for invitation ? to add personal history ?
Good question,
I’ve been wondering about this as well. In my Express Entry PR application, I listed jobs I’m not claiming CRS points for under Personal History only.
I’m also unsure about education not used for CRS points. I have an ECA for a bachelor’s degree (which I do claim points for), plus two secondary-level diplomas for which I don’t claim any points, one of which is not included in the ECA.
I chose to include all of these studies in my Education History and uploaded one merged document with the ECA and all diplomas.
Does this seem acceptable?
Thank you
