FWSP eligibility (67/100 min) - work experiences must come from primary NOC?

Hi all,

Just read through the FSWP guideline

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who.asp

When calculating whether one meets the 67/100 threshold, the applicant's experiences must be from the PRIMARY NOC that he/she selected (from the past 10 years?)

I have X years in NOC A and Y years in NOC B in the past 10 years. If I pick NOC A as primary NOC, my Y years won't be added into the FSWP eligibility points. Is this correct?

Or

Is this just the MINIMUM requirement? As long as my X years in primary NOC A is larger than 1, my total experiences from both NOC A and NOC B would be considered together for FSWP eligibility (min 67/100)?

This question has nothing to do with CRS.

All work experience entered in the work history in the EE profile will be added and will be assessed for FSW and EE CRS score. However, primary NOC must be one year continuous work.

Hope that clarifies your query.

Thanks for the insights! That's clearer.

Also I was also referring to the 'Experience' part of the FSW point calculation - we all need to get a minimum of 67 to be eligible for EE.

Experience Maximum 15 points
1 year------------------9
2-3 years-------------11
4-5 years-------------13
6 or more years-----15

Should all these years of experience come from the primary NOC or they could be from separate ones?

Could be from different NOCs, as long as at least one NOC is one-year continuous for your primary NOC. The other NOCs may be one month, 6 months, 1 year, 3 years..they will all be added up, and will be calculated for the FSW or EE score, provided you enter all those work experience in the Work History section.
