Is LMIA score not counted for Intra company transfer?

[travel2Canada]

Hi all,

I just finished one year on my closed work permit with ICT (Intra company transfer) as IT consultant. My spouse is working on open work permit and completed one year too. I am getting 50 points only for the Canadian experience but no points for LMIA.

As LMIA is exempt for ICT , I thought I would get 50 points extra. Is it not right? Any suggestions to improve scores apart from bot of us taking IELTS exam again ?

Here is the break down.

Your overall score 395

If your employer can support your job offer with a statement that your job offer will remain valid for a period of one year from the date of the issue of PR , you can claim these 50 points for the job offer

Thanks for the quick reply, But I don't even get picked in the first place as my score is 395.
If they pick then I could arrange for the document from my employer if required.

What do you mean by getting picked ? You have to select yes for Arrange employment... that add 50 points to your score and takes it to 445

In addition you can also improve your overall score by scoring higher band in your language score and ask your spouse to give language test as well

Sorry, didn't get you , Where is this particular question asked "select yes for Arrange employment" , I checked my application again , Could not find it

Here is the answer I have provided under LMIA, But still it doesn't count 50 points

2. Is <Applicant> currently working in Canada? YES
3. Does <Applicant> have a valid work permit for the current job in Canada? YES
4.Is <Applicant>'s job offer from the employer named on the current work permit? YES

6.Four digit NOC code of current work permit : 2171 Information Systems Analysts and Consultants
7.Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the current work permit? No - My work permit is exempt from an LMIA due to an international agreement

If you have created the profile just now wait for 24 hrs and the points should be reflected...

You should refer this thread as well https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/please-suggest-additional-50-points-thro-crs-arranged-employment-ict.467497/

There are no CRS points for an LMIA. There ARE CRS points for a valid job offer (AKA arranged employment), which in some cases requires an LMIA (not in your case, however).

As LMIA is exempt for ICT , I thought I would get 50 points extra. Is it not right?

No, not right. For the 50 extra points, you need a valid job offer. For workers with one year on an ICT permit, this means that in order to qualify as having a "valid job offer," all you need is a job offer letter from your current employer - that is, an offer of FUTURE employment (for at least one year) upon becoming a permanent resident.

Also note that the job offer still has to be valid if you are approved, up until the day you land.

Above in your September posts, you twice indicated that you had already completed a year. If this was false, that is the reason you did not get the points.
