Canadian work experience

[Hemangi Likhia]

I am living in Toronto and I got a job as a retail sale supervisor which is under the NOC category but my employer provides me $14.25 per hour. Will wage become a problem during my express entry file ?

Yes, this can sometimes create issues with your application. You're being paid minimum wage. As a result, this can cause IRCC to question if you are really doing the job of a supervisor. It's hard to say if this will impact your specific application or not. Sometimes IRCC raises concerns in these situations and sometimes they don't.

I am currently working in Montreal on closed work permit. I was working from Apr-2019 to 15-Apr-2020. Due to the pandemic impact , I got removed from the project for 3 months and was receiving CERB for the interim period. Started working with the employer from 15-Jul-20 onwards. No change in the NOC code. Want to know whether I can consider those 3 months as my canada experience? Any one experienced this?
In my Express entry profile I mentioned the break for 3 months. Want to know whether it is really required to show the break for 3 months. Don't want to miss some points in the CRS score , hence this question.

No - these three months cannot be counted as work experience. You weren't working so you have to count this as a period of unemployment.
