Hi everyone,

Just had a quick question and was hoping that somebody would be able to help. I applied through Express Entry under the Canadian Experience Class. I have a year of full-time NOC type 0 work experience in Canada. When I was creating an Express Entry profile, I also listed a bunch of other part-time jobs that I held during my student years that would not contribute towards my CRS score (tour guide, bank teller, etc.). When I received my ITA and eventually got to the documents page, I saw that I needed to provide supporting documents for every job that I listed when creating an Express Entry profile even though I am claiming only one of them for immigration since it is the only one that contributes to my CRS score. I also noticed that I was invited under the CEC class, but when I was about to go to the supporting documents page and clicked on "View Score", it showed that I was invited under CEC but do not actually meet CEC requirements. Instead, it says that I would only meet the requirements for the Federal Skilled Worker class, even though all of my job experiences were in Canada.

I have two questions: what should I do about the job experiences that I added on Express Entry but am not claiming for immigration? They do not give me any points in the CRS and I don't think I can provide the supporting documents for all of them. I simply listed all of my work experience when creating an Express Entry profile because I didn't know that I would have to provide documentation for all of them after receiving an ITA. The second question would be whether I should remove all jobs but the primary one that I am claiming and apply? Since it doesn't seem like I can go back and edit my Express Entry profile now that I have an ITA. Is it possible to delete an Express Entry profile and create a new one to be invited to the next round of invitations?

Thanks a lot guys and I really appreciate the help.
 
You don't need to decline your ITA or withdraw your profile. Remove those jobs from the work history section and add them only in the personal history section. Include a LOE regarding the fact that these jobs are irrelevant to your CRS and eligibility.

Thank you very much! I will add those jobs to my post-ITA profile, will remove the jobs, and will include a LOE in supporting documents.

Would appreciate any other responses if other community members have a different opinion (or support this one).
