Different Set of Questions for Work in Comprehensive Ranking System at Canadavisa website. I know this is not an official CIC calculator but they have worded differently which makes sense to me.

https://www.canadavisa.com/comprehensive-ranking-score-calculator.html

Some questions are as under -

Do you have a skilled job offer from a Canadian employer? - Yes / No

Is the position being offered a senior managerial level position (starting with National Occupation Classification 00)? Yes / No

Is this an indeterminate job offer (ie. no specified end-date)? Yes / No - This could answer to some of our doubts!!

Is this Job Offer supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment)? Yes/ No

Are you currently working in Canada on a valid work permit for the employer(s) offering you a job? Yes / No

Is this employer specified on your current work permit? (for example, if your work permit was issued under an international trade agreement such as NAFTA or if you are an intra-company transferee)? Yes / No

Is the job you are currently working in Canada supported by a LMIA or LMO? Yes / No

Have you been working for this employer for at least one year (at least 30 hours per week, or equivalent part-time)? Yes / No

Are you currently working in Canada on a work permit that is exempt from a LMIA by an international trade agreement (e.g. NAFTA) or a federal-provincial agreement? Yes / No

Are you working on a work permit described in section 205 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations? (For example, as an Intra-Company transferee or other significant benefit to Canada work initiative.) Yes / No

Actually i tried that yesterday before updating my profile and this confused me alot with what is there on CIC. This calculator asks for Permanent offer with no date and then it asks for more questions like LMIA etc. So i believe if we don't have any date specified on our Offer letter and have work permit expiring after a year and so we might not need tht letter again from employer.

If we choose NO then it asks only for FST job and its LMIA. I think we might have to wait few days for CIC to clear out the instructions.

Use this Calculator to find why your points have not increased.

[Vani.A]

[thinkshady]

yea... with calculator i see increase in points... but when i update my Express entry profile i dont see any change in my score... I dont know the reason...

Give it some time. Logout of your profile and login back later. For many folks status still says processing for more that 36 hours so you are at least in good position.

 

[janasj]

Its more than 48 hours for me and still in "Processing Updates" status. If you are getting the status changed quickly, be happy about it
You will get the points eventually..

yea... with calculator i see increase in points... but when i update my Express entry profile i dont see any change in my score... I dont know the reason...

It looks like employer will need to get some sort of "valid assessment" done by Department of Employment and Social Development same as was for LMIA i believe. This is making it more difficult to get from employer. I think getting a job offer after PR was much simpler option. Please let me know if i am wrong.
