Working as Freelancer

[Atif Ben]

Hi Guys,

Am planning to apply for EE. But I really want to know if I stand a chance.

Firstly let me introduce myself, I did my bachelors in Electrical Engineering in 2014 but I have been working as Graphic Designer/Illustrator (NOC 5241) since Apr 2014. I provide graphic design services online on website Freelancer dot com. I have a very healthy profile there with over 700 projects and over 550 reviews from clients as graphic designer.

1)I can print out a 120+ page transaction history issued by freelancer dot com which has details of every penny along with dates, timestamps, client name, project name, cost.

2)In addition, I can also have almost 60 page document which will have all the reviews from clients I have worked with. In this document client name, project name, cost, rating, feedback comments are given.

3)I can also have the local bank statements which corresponds to the 120 page transaction history from freelancer.com

These stats will continue to grow since I work everyday over 12 hours a day.

With above documents should I apply for the Express Entry? What else do you guys recommend? Would love to know thoughts.

thanks for reading whoever reads my request
Atif

1. No. Freelancer.com is an agency that connected you with the client. You will need to have reference letters from the client stating the job duties, number of hours worked and remuneration.
2. Online reviews won't do. The client has to give you a letter in CIC format.
3. Proof of payment isn't essential. Remuneration has to be specified on the letter.

Hello there

I have talked with clients I have been working with.
And luckily I have got around 30 letters.
It states when project started, when it ended, amount, number of hours I worked.
Also I got Clients contact details as well.

However, I gave them all a form to fill out, sign it and send me a scanned copy. So they are all same in terms of design.

Is anybody interested to review a letter and let me know if this would work?

Thank you

Best thing in your situation is to get a recommendation letter from Freelancer.com.

Apart from that you already have letters from your clients which is good.

Rest, everything is good and you can proceed with your application.

If you have any more questions, message me!
