    Invitation under CEC - confusion to accept or decline

    @scylla This is completely false. It depends on the officer. Do you have any reference stating that it is locked when we submit the application and not at ITA? IRPR 11.2 (1) An officer may not issue a visa or other document in respect of an application for permanent residence to a foreign...

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    Thanks @CanGoldDigger. So just to confirm my understanding: if I represent all my work experience accurately, and I have about 48 weeks of actual Canadian experience at the time of receiving an ITA, would it be acceptable to accept the ITA and submit my application closer to the 60 day deadline...

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    But isn't this contradictory to what you said? It clearly states that the officer can refuse if you did not meet the requirements when the ITA was issued, OR you did not meet them when IRCC received your application (after submission) So isn't it necessary to meet both the conditions, i.e...

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    @CanGoldDigger Could you point me to any official source that clarifies whether work experience is counted up to the application submission date? I thought it was supposed to be counted only up to the ITA date, and that the extra 60 day window shouldn’t be included.

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    Thank you @Naturgrl and @CanGoldDigger. I’m planning to decline this ITA. Going forward, in my Express Entry profile, should I update the experience to reflect the split between Canadian and foreign work now, or keep it as is and only make that distinction after receiving my next ITA? Also...

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    Thanks @Naturgrl and @CanGoldDigger. I just want to double-check how you would represent this if you were in my position. I worked in Canada from January 2, 2025 to April 24, 2025, and then was in my home country from April 25, 2025 to June 27, 2025. Since IRCC focuses primarily on months, I...

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    Also, is work experience counted up to the date I receive the ITA, or up to the date I submit my application?

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    That makes sense. My question is: since we have 60 days to submit the application, can the additional two months of experience be counted there? I worked remotely for two months, and to be precise, I worked in Canada from January 2, 2025 to April 24, 2025. For Canadian work experience, should I...

    Also is it necessary to declare it? Like does IRCC really do the calculation?

    CEC decline or accept invite

    So, if you receive the ITA in mid-January, you still wouldn’t have a full 52 weeks of Canadian work experience, right? Experience is only counted up to the date of the ITA, and paid vacation time doesn’t count, correct? Also how are you filling your CEC experience in the form? JAN-SEPT...

    CEC decline or accept invite

    I'm in a similar situation, @AJ816 please let me know whatever you do. Since you got the ITA, you'll have 60 days to submit your profile. How will you be able to submit your application on March 6 to avoid double dipping?

    cec foreign work experience

    Hi! I received an invitation today with a CRS score of 524. I started my full time job in Canada in January 2025, but I worked remotely from my home country for two months (May and June). Now that I have the ITA, is it okay to wait and submit my application closer to the end of the 60-day...

    @Naturgrl can you please clarify this as well? Thanks!

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    also what's weird is that I started my work in Canada in Jan but on Dec1 it automatically awarded me points for 1 year and not on jan 2026?

    CEC - Does 2 months of remote experience affect in points calculation?

    So does that mean I need to list this as two separate work experiences in my profile—one from January to May, and another from July to the present? Also, what happens if I submit my application just one day before the 60-day deadline, at which point I would have exactly one year of Canadian work...
