FREELANCE DIGITAL MEDIA EXPERT: DO I QUALIFY FOR EXPRESS ENTRY?

[Yas Das]

Hi,

I have 8 years of experience in total as a digital marketing expert (India). I work for well established companies that send me pay slips for the work I do every month. First two years I worked full time for a well established company in India, I have a proof of that as well. My companies will also write reference letters if need be.

I have been earning a decent amount every month. Can I qualify for express entry visa?

Not enough information to make that assessment.

If your work experience is NOC 0, A or B then you can use it to claim points for it.

Thank you s much for your reply. Yes, my experience is in one of these NOC's. However, most people say I am not eligible if my experience is freelance. Is that the case?

That's not the case. Self-employed work experience OUTSIDE of Canada does count.

Hey Yas Das, I am in a similar situation. I have been doing some freelance work in India recently. Have you figured out how you can prove your experience as a freelancer. What all documents one needs for this? Thanks
