Need urgent guidance for job profile for Express Entry

[Gurmeet_Kaur23]

Hi All,
I am planning to apply for express entry but facing a critical issue.

I have completed my graduation in B.A.(Bachelor of Arts) English Hons from Delhi University(India) and have also completed my MCA(Master of Computer Applications) in 2012. I am also currently pursuing M.Tech in Software Systems.

I am working with a MNC as Software Engineering Senior Analyst. My role is to develop code for client and also have supported the applications.

I am finding 2173 and 2171 codes suitable for me as per my experience.

But in the both, it is written that:

Employment requirements

A bachelor's degree in computer science, computer systems engineering, software engineering, business administration or a related discipline
or
Completion of a college program in computer science is usually required.

I do not have technical degree in Bachelors but yes I have completed MCA and am pursuing M.Tech and I do have experience in Software Field.

Can I please request to help me to confirm if I can apply under any of these categories please?

Your fast reply will help me to initiate the process ASAP. If in case you find some other IT based profile suitable for me, please share its group code with me.

I would be very very grateful to you for your kind help.

Thanks in Advance!!!

You can use the following links to calculate your CRS score.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp
https://www.canadavisa.com/comprehensive-ranking-score-calculator.html

IELTS plays a very important role in boosting your CRS score. Ideally getting CLB 9 in IELTS (LRWS 8777) will give you the best points, You can try different values in the calculators here and see for yourself how much of a difference IELTS makes to your CRS score.

But, if your total work experience is only 0.6, you will not be eligible for Express Entry. You check the Express Entry requirements here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who.asp

All the best!

Thank you for replying. Just one more query that I have foreign work experience of 6 months and there is no option for it. I have 6.2 years of total IT work experience. How to showcase the same while filling the application?
