Dear rajkamalmohanram,

The answer to your questions is:

1) My whole life work experience is almost 6 years. more than 5.5 of them in (2147) NOC (Computer Engineer).
2) 16000 CAD $.
3)yes I have more than one year work experience in my primary NOC.

Thanks
Hmmm, strange. I'm not sure why your profile is becoming ineligible. Can you copy paste the details you entered in the screen (remove sensitive information) .

Dou have children?

Dear Express Entry Experts,
in last 10 years, i have 8 years and 2 months in a bank.
the 8 years is divided into 2 sections each is 4 years with 2 different titles but in the same department inside the same bank.
the first 4 yeas title is customer retention officer -NOC 6551 (Skills level C)
the second 4 years is Quality Assurance and Training senior officer - NOC 1121(Skills level A)

my HR letter will show the current title only which is "Quality Assurance and Training senior officer"

my question: do i have to write both titles in my work experience in Express entry profile with different NOCs or i should write the current title with 8 years of experience in total which - in fact - is not real???

Thanks Raj. It really resolves my issue.

Few more questions. It will be of great help to me if get answers:

1. Won't there be any problem as I will be uploading FBI PCC also. (as i have two passports and visas are on old expired passport and you said I have to upload only pages from new passport)

2. I have Masters and Bachelor’s degree in engineering. But on CIC website while filling educational details there is no option to select engineering as field of study. There is a long list like commerce, law, health, dentist, sciences applied, sciences general but nowhere I can see Engineering or technology. Kindly suggest what to do?

3. I have only given name on my passport. How do I enter my name in my express entry profile?
 
What I read from CIC website:
Log into your MyCIC account,
Go to the heading called "View my submitted applications or profiles,"
Click on "Check status and messages,"
Scroll down to the table called “Correspondence,”
Click on the arrow in front of the message – it will open a drop-down menu with a link,
Click on the link to open the PDF message.
======
And the last line in teh PDF reads as:
You must get confirmation of your nomination, register for Job Bank, or update your profile with a valid
job offer within 30 days. If you do not, your Express Entry profile will expire and you will not be
considered for permanent residence in Canada.

Hi ,
I would like to inquire about Job Reference letters. I have worked in 4 organisations till now. 1st with 6 months of experience, 2nd with 2.11 years, 3rd with 4 months and 4th I am currently working with around 1 year experience.

Do I need reference letters for all 4. Would an affidavit/notarized document work in case of my 1st and 3rd company, where experience is less than 1 year?

Thanks in advance.

You might find your answer from below libk of CIC:
cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/questions-answers-by-topic.asp?top=29

In an Express Entry profile, should I only include the minimum work experience needed to qualify for one of the programs, or should I include more?
To qualify for the broadest range of programs, including the Federal Skilled Worker Program, you should include work experience for the last 10 years. We also need this information for an application for permanent residence, no matter which program you are applying under.


On Top: CIC document check list says:
Document: Employment Records
You must provide proof of work experience for your current job and for each past position you listed. Proof must include a reference letter from your employer and pay stubs, if you have them. The reference letter must:
be an official document printed on company letterhead
include your name, the company’s contact information (address, telephone number and e-mail address), the signature of your immediate
show all positions held while employed at the company
include these details: job title, duties/responsibilities, job status (if current job), the dates you worked for the company, the number of work hours per week and your annual salary plus benefits.
You must scan all documents for this period of employment and save them as one file. (You must create a separate file for each period of employment.)

There is a similar post here and you might draw inference from this site.

Dear All,

Thanks for your messages regarding step by step instructions for express entry. It is really helpful.

I am just going to start this procedure. I tried to check my points with CRS calculator.

Though I have over 10 years of experience (33 years age) and checked my CRS along with spouse details (32, masters degree holder), score I am getting is around 365-375.

I checked 2-3 times but cannot understand where exactly I am missing.

I was quite sure I will get above 450 points considering my age, total experience, IELTS score and along with my wife details.

would look forward to see your inputs.

Thanks
