TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 10 by Mightythoughts: 2:37pm On Jan 28, 2021

You wrote that you have 11 months plus 1 year 5 months which is 28 months, 3 years is 36 months. Calculate it well
.

Thanks, the 13months I meant is what's needed to complete my current occupation to 2 years. Yes you are right if you sum all the months, I have 8 months left.

IRCC requested for at least 2 years experience if I am to use NOC 72..which is for construction workers and I have 1.5months experience.

So what I am asking is since ircc requested @least 2 years experience for that NOC, will it affect my 3 years experience which I agree with you will be complete in 8months?

If it affects my years of experience, I will go down from 460-470 to 430-440. So I want to know so I can prepare for PNP or french.

You basically just need eight months more work experience and since you're already thinking of NACETEM for additional certificate (although i would have advised ACCA or BCS since they are quicker) . Why not plan to get into the pool latest by October
Thanks so much for the assistance.
8 more months or 13 more months?(was employed on February last year)
I thought of ACCA and BCS but I felt nacetem will be safer and I have about that time(10-11months for nacetem)to complete my work experience(13 months).

I am also working on ECA for my B.eng and if I want to write IELTS after Easter. If I max IELTS I will enter the pool while I wait to round up the diploma and upgrade.

If you max out your ielts, you can be in the pool immediately. how about your nysc to add and make your work experience up to three years. If you add nysc and maxed out ielts, your crs will be 474
The 1.5 years experience was acquired during my nysc.was working with the company before nysc so I had to serve there.
I have decided to wait till February next year before I enter the pool because the diploma program will end by sept/oct and when you add the time to process the result and do ECA it will get to Dec or January next year.

Will I still have 470 if I max IELTS and enter the pool next year?

Goodday everyone.
I made up my mind to move to Canada and my colleague who left last year recommended I visit this forum to get good information.i have been learning and I have also gone through IRCC website for express entry info but I need some clarification.
When I used the CRS tool to evaluate my score I got between 434 to 440 with the details
Age: 28 (February born)

Current ocupatiion: civil engineer.(NOC B), 11 months experience.

Previous occupation: site supervisor.(NOC B), 1 year 5 months experience).

Marital status: single.

Educational qualification: 2 or more(I have BSC and I just registered with nacetem for the diploma)

IELTS:8,7,7,7 (S,L,R,W).(assumed,as I have been practicing and will write soon)

I used 2 years experience(11 months + 1.5 years) but when I selected 3 years the CRS score got to 460+. I Intended entering the pool this year but since my CRS score is low I decided to wait till February next year so that my current experience will be 3 years+(2 + 1.5).

When checked my eligibility on IRCC site, I selected 2 years for the first experience and where they asked if I have experience in NOCs starting with 72-(construction workers with at least 2 years experience)I selected less than 2 years(i.e 1.5 years for the site supervisor experience).
It also said I am still eligible when I selected only the first experience (2 years, which is my current job)

My question is, since I will be using Nocs for civil engineers and Nocs for construction site supervisors,Will my 3 years experience be affected because the NOC 72...(construction site supervisor) I will be using is not up to 2 years? (I.e will they take only my current experience which will be 2 years by February next year and reject my previous experience which is 1.5years as it doesn't meet up with the required year by IRCC).

I appreciate you all for the efforts.
