Hi All,
Any help would be highly appreciated. I had applied for the Canadian PR in the month of March and had gotten the ITA. My AOR is in the month of May. Got the refusal letter from IRCC yesterday. I have worked as a consultant for 2 years after graduating and then got a full-time job (at the time I applied for the canadian PR I had experience of about 2 and half years in the full-time job). For the period I worked as a consultant, I got the letter from my employer (which is a staffing company). I couldn't get the letter from the client, or from my lead to whom I was reporting to directly. Due to this they have considered this work experience of mine and thus the eligibility has not been met.

Could I go ahead and apply for a new express entry profile now immediately, and simultaneously work on improving the CRS score. My refusal letter doesn't state anything like I cannot re-apply for it.

Now I have 3 and a half years of experience in my current full-time role. Could I submit the new express entry profile only with this experience (as in claim points only for this, as any way I get the same points for 3 years or 5 years of experience) and mention the other work experiences in my personal history (so that I do not have to submit any documents for the other work experiences). Would that cause a problem? Since IRCC would retain my application for 2 years.

Yes, you can reapply. A rejection doesn't mean you can't have another go.

This is mentioned in the letter that I have received "If you should submit a new application it would require new fees and documentation and would need to meet all the requirements in effect at the time the application is submitted."

You should reapply with the best, legitimate, combination of factors for your circumstances. You don't need to claim points for the previous "experience" but you still probably need to declare it. Your updated experience should be supported by appropriate documentation as you will be claiming the points for it but the previous one may not need to be documented as well.

Yes, I will be declaring all of my previous experiences, but planning to declare it in the personal history section and not in the work experiences section. So, that I will not have to provide documentation for it if it's mentioned in the personal history section.

No, you do not need to provide documentation for work experience under personal history.

Thanks for the reply Guys.
Would it be a problem if I declare my past experience in the personal history section, since I had earlier declared it under work experience section?
