    Are points locked in when receiving the ITA?

    I swear I'll pay you a lawyer fee if you figure this out, because I haven't seen many in my situation. Problem is... I had two jobs. One from 31 - May - 2022 to 25 - July - 2023 (13 months and 25 days). System counts this as 15 months (?) Another from 19 November 2024 - 7 September 2025...

    Thank you! If I were not to take the exam already, I'd be better off declining the ITA?

    Received ITA 76 days before meeting experience

    Uortunately, I got my ITA today. I say unfortunately, because I got points for two years of experience, but I'm actually 70 days away, so even by waiting the 60 days, I'll be 10 days short. My score without the extra year is 517. I started one of my jobs on May 31st, 2022. So the system counts...
