Hi,

I need an urgent request because time is not on my side. I received an ITA today with the CEC draw (cut off 511, my score 513).

I completed my PhD in October 2022, I applied for a PGWP and received it with expiry Feb 07, 2026.

From Oct 2022-Dec 2022, I was employed part time (33h/week) in my work domain.
From Jan 2023, I was employed fulltime in my field of work. Since Jan 2023 to October 2025, I worked there. This comes to 2y 10months of my CEC experience (important later).

Background: I applied for Express Entry in February 2025. At the time I had a job.. In Oct 2025, I quit my job because I had no hope of scores going down and was leaving the country. I made a mistake of not updating my file that I quit my job. I kept my file and I proceeded to book my tickets to my country and was downsizing my life while my file existed as the way it was.

Now I check CRS and they gave me 64 points for Canadian work experience because of 3 years experience, but I have 2y 10months experience. Therefore, my work experience brings my score to 502.

What do I do? Thank you in advance.
