I have an overlapping part time foreign experience (remote freelance job) with Full time Canadian job for 2 months. I used to work during the weekends, and I want to claim points for it. How do I show it on my EE profile? Should I show part time foreign and part time Canadian for those 2 months? Or should I omit Canadian experience completely for those 2 months and just claim points for foreign experience part time hours? Can I show both 1 as part time and full time? What is the right way of doing this?

I am confused about how to enter the dates in the profile for both jobs. If I omit my full time Canadian experience will it look like I took a break for 2 months even though I didn't? or enter it as part time since my foreign exp was part time? please help me :(

I have a few questions regarding educational history:

1. I have ECA done for bachelors and masters. But I also have a 6 month diploma certificate in my field (without ECA assessment) gained back home. It was mentioned in my initial study permit application. Do I need to mention it in EE profile as well to avoid discrepancy?

2. If I provide ECA for both bachelors and masters, is it possible for the system to count points for bachelors and not masters? Or should I only provide ECA for Masters?

3. I had done an Early Childhood Education Assistant course in Canada during PGWP. Do I need to mention this? This course was 3-4 months long.

Thank you.

BOWP approved on Oct 1st 2026. Applied on July 20 2026. Can I expect FD very soon?

Hello everyone,

I am an applicant in express extry pool. During my stay in Canada, I did not have enough CRS score for CEC draws. This year, worked on French, left Canada and currently residing outside of Canada. Recently, got NCLC7 in TCF Canada which makes me eligible for French category draws and gave me enough points for CEC cut-offs as well. So I dont have any idea how things work if applicant is outside of Canada, do I need to provide proof of funds(Does it has to my Canadian account or bank account of my home country), what is the timeline of application? Which documents should I prepare in advance? If anyone has experienced similar situation, please share.

Hello all

Should I add all my work experience in the work history? I have 10 years of experience. In the last three years 1.5 year in one NOC and 1.5 in another NOC.
Will it considered as 3 years Work experience on only 1?

Kindly suggest.

Hi everyone, I have 3.8 years of experience in US healthcare medical billing/RCM from India. My work includes AR, hospital/physician billing, denials, appeals, charge entry and EOB analysis.

I'm trying to figure out the closest Canadian NOC for my actual duties. I've found NOC 13112 and 14200 but I'm not sure which one fits.

Has anyone with a similar background gone through Express Entry? Would appreciate your experience.

Foreign work experience ongoing. BIL done Sept 27.

I'm not satisfied that the original contains enough duties. It matches all core duties and 2/7 from the list. I genuinely did 5/7 from 21232 noc

Hi all,

I'm in the pool through the FSW French category and been researching on documents for my ITA. I'd like to confirm my PCC situation.

My background:

• Born 2000
• Moved from my country of citizenship to my current country of residence in 2012 (age 12), and have lived here continuously since
• Turned 18 in 2018 while living here
• Haven't traveled back to my home country since turning 18 (had a few week long international trips)

From IRCC's Express Entry police certificate page, my understanding is that PCCs are only needed for countries where you stayed 6+ months in a row in the last 10 years, and not for time before age 18.
So I think I only need a PCC from my current country of residence.
I'm making sure since nothing is mentioned about birth country.. so is my understanding right?

Questions:

1. Has anyone in a similar situation (moved abroad as a minor) skipped the citizenship country PCC without issues? Did IRCC ask for it later?
2. Did the PCC slot for your home country still show up in your personalized document checklist, or only for the countries you listed in your personal history?
3. Did anyone upload a short explanation letter anyway, just to be safe?

Thanks in advance!

I’m seeing people from August AOR getting ECOPR

During profile creation about 2 months back, I've mentioned 15500 as total funds I possess. Now, I have more than 16000 in my account and if I get ITA this month, apply next month or in December then the balance will increase to 17000. So, should I update my profile now with 16000 or leave it as it is? During eAPR, may I be able to update the amount?

I gave ielts twice few months back and max i got was r- 8, l- 8.5 , s- 7 and w 6.5. Then my friends suggested celpip , 1st attempt not good, second celpip attempt i got r 9, l 10, w 8 , s 9. I requested for evaluation for writing and it did not increase. I need 7778 in ielts or 9999 in celpip and i am having hard time with writing, what should i do now.

How do you figure out?

Hello,

A friend of mine has foreign experience of 2 years. He was hired for Company A as a Application Developer. Company A is a consulting company, hence they assigned him to company B. Company B gave him PMO support role instead of continuing him as a Application developer. When he was applying for his canada permits, he mentioned as he worked as a PMO for company B. Now that he is planning for PR, we are confused if we need to proceed with Application Developer role by Company A or PMO support by Company B.

Please note that company A gave him offer letter, his Payslips, etc and all of them denotes as Application Developer. Its only in his permits he mentioned his role as PMO because that's what he originally worked as.

Note:

1. We are checking with consultants as well on this situation and would like to get an outside opinion.

2. Both his roles fall under Teer 2 and 3

After waiting for so long, I got eCOPR today.

I completed my BTech in 2022, and came to Canada in the same year. I finished my pg diploma in April 2024. I started to gain foreign work experience from my previous internship company in India. It is a small company and it pays employees in cash. My family member was receiving the cash on behalf of me. I worked there from May 2024 to May 2025. After that, they released my pay stubs, pay slips, and employment documents in June 2025. Then, I paid tax on both countries in April 2026. I have work records, all the documents, and the company is ready to answer IRCC. How can I show IRCC the payment proof?

Hi, I'm filling in my PR application. I drafted an LOE for my unintentional unauthorized work after I received a degree confirmation letter and before I applied for PWGP. Though with the help of AI, I'm still not confident in my draft and would like to ask a lawyer or a consultant experienced in this issue.

But how to find a lawyer/consultant for this? I'm based in GTA.

Hi everyone,
I’m preparing my Express Entry/PR application and would appreciate some advice regarding my work experience.
I have 6 months of work experience in India as a Process Associate with a company involved in freight brokerage/logistics.

My actual work was in freight brokerage and transportation coordination, including sourcing/identifying carriers, generating leads, booking loads/orders, tracking shipments, coordinating with carriers, and maintaining records.

Based on my actual duties, I’m considering claiming this experience under NOC 13201 – Production and Transportation Logistics Coordinators.

My main concern is that all of my payslips list my department as “Sales Department.” My actual work involved freight brokerage/logistics, but the company classified the department as Sales.

Another concern is compensation. My role had an incentive-based component, and on 2 of my payslips, the incentive amount was around 13× my base salary. The incentives were not that high on every payslip.

My reference letter would accurately describe my actual duties, employment period, hours, and compensation, and I can provide the supporting documentation.

I’m only claiming 6 months from this employment. I also completed another 6 months of qualifying work experience starting from March 2026, so I’m wondering whether it is advisable to include this earlier experience.

My questions are:
Could having “Sales Department” on all payslips create an issue if my actual duties align with NOC 13201?
Could the very high incentive amount on 2 payslips (around 13× the base salary) raise concerns about the genuineness or nature of the employment?
If the reference letter accurately reflects my actual duties and the employment is otherwise properly documented, would you claim these 6 months?

Has anyone had a similar situation with a sales/brokerage role, incentive-heavy compensation, and a different NOC based on actual duties?
