Right off the bat, you need a completed post secondary degree / diploma/certificate which can be evaluated as being equivalent in Canada to be eligible under Express Entry (FSW program).

You can read and understand the overall process here

You can check for yourself if you are eligible or not.

First and foremost, you need to check if you are eligible under the FSW program (that you get at least 67/100 under the FSW points grid). Secondly, you have to check if you are eligible to apply under Express Entry (You would need to get your ECA done and your IELTS General test).

There's more to the process than just your education and work experience.

All this might sound alien to you if you are just starting out. Don't be intimidated.

Learn more about the nuances of the process here. Go through the pages hyperlinked in that post as well and at the end of this, you should have a relatively decent idea about the eligibility requirements for Express Entry.

Good luck.

Hi,
I need some guidance for below query.
I am on a Spousal Open Work Permit and received a Job offer from a Toronto based company.
Do I need a LMIA to consider this in my Express entry profile?
Thanks

I don't think you need an LMIA if you are on an open work permit. You should be good to take that job.

However, you can't claim points for this job offer for Express Entry AFAIK. Also, you would need to have at least one year work experience in Canada in the past 3 years to qualify for Canadian Experience Class.

Hello

Can someone suggest what is the minimum requirement of years of Job to apply for Express Entry outside Canada?

Is it continuous work for One year or Two?

Regards
EM

This is a very basic detail that is clearly mentioned in the instruction guide and my post here .

Minimum continuous paid work experience of 12 months in an eligible NOC (0,A,B) working at least 30 hrs/week for full-time employment is a mandatory requirement to be eligible.

Friends...

Required Your Suggestions...

I have two Time refusal for Canada Student visa in 2015.

One Time Visitor Visa refusal in 2020

EE Profile was not eligible.

I am Web Developer.

I have positive reply to get Job offer.

For web developer, Is it compulsory to get License? If I have Job offer then License is required ????

please suggest...

I don't think your NOC (for web developer) would need any license. Most IT occupations aren't 'regulated' in Canada (thankfully)!

Hello All,
I am planning to create my express entry profile. However, i have a question. I have worked on a thor party payroll for a year. I worked at XYZ company but my salary was paid by ABC consultancy. Legally i was an employee at ABC.
1. Now while filling up my express entry what should be the name of the company i should fill ABC or XYZ?
I am not sure if ABC will provide me reference letter because i was not on there payroll.
Does anyone had same experience? If yes, please guide me.

Hello Tanisha,

I have the same scenario like you. I was working for ABC company and was hired by XYZ company. Additionally, ABC company where I was working , it was closed down in 2017 and the contract between ABC and XYZ got cancelled. I have got the ITA through express entry recently. So I got the employment letter from XYZ company as my payroll was regulated by XYZ company. When I asked ABC company HR to write me an employment letter they refused to give me the letter and I kept that as well for my record. So I would suggest that you could ask your payroll company to write down an employment letter with all mandatory information including your annual pay, weekly hours, job responsibilities and dully signed by HR executive / authorized person of that XYZ company. If the company where you were working deny to give you any employment letter, you could keep that email conversation for your own record to show immigration officer in later on stage if you would be asked to show any proof that you have tried your best to get the employment letter.

Additionally, you could ask your colleagues of the company where you were working to write down your roles and responsibilities to support your documents. Do not forget to take a copy of their employee ID card for your reference.

I have 410 points, NOC- 2172, filed on 29-December-2019. Just want to go to Alberta. Should I expect the ITA with this score in the pandemic time? Any reply would be highly appreciated.

Did you get any response ? would like to know your status

Have you seen the rounds of invitation page?

I believe the lowest score drawn for 'No category specified' draw was on September 20, 2017. The cut-off was 433. Lately, the scores have been sky rocketing and unfortunately, 410 will not cut it.

The quickest and the least expensive way to increase your score is to maximize your IELTS score (get a CLB-9 if you don't already have it).

In this climate, for any score less than 470 - 475 (you would need a Masters degree + CLB-9 in IELTS) to get this without Canadian Work Experience, I believe PNP would be the best way to get your foot in the door.

Hi everyone! I have a query about employment reference letter. I started working full time in August 2019 and then took EI for two months from April to May due to COVID. Afterthat my employer called me back on same job at same position. So, for 1 year to be completed reference letter be written in two time frames or there will be two letters of experience. Because I heard that after EI employer hire again with a new start date of job.

Good evening,
These are the few very easy steps to avail the benefits of Express Entry Scheme:
1. First you should be a PGWP holder, under this they will check your work experience.

2. Then one should submit their profile into Express Entry System and become their candidate

3. Then once you are a candidate you will be scored based on Comprehensive Ranking System(CRS).

4. These rankings are based as per Labour support decided by government.

Note: One can also add points based on their age, education, work experience and their ability to speak English and French.

5. The one with the more score will be provided with Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence in Canada through Express Entry Draw System.

No it doesn't. That's what most people like myself did. So for my previous work experience (not current job), I had all my references before hand.

Hi....Could you please share the format for reference letters?
