So, you had this as a second job, in addition to a first job which is your current job and which you declared? Why are you worried it may show up in your background check?

My picture and name are on the second company's website as a part of their team.
I'm worried that a simple Google search would bring it up

Good day everyone. I urgently need advice on an issue.

I started a new job some weeks before I submitted my PR application. However, because it's my second job and I wasn't sure I would last the month with them I didn't bother to declare it at all, in either my personal history or my empoyment history

It's two months after and I'm still with them and i'm worried that it might show up during my background check.
Please, what can I do to mitigate this cry?

This is all we've talked about for the last few pages.

You have 2 options: come clean and declare it now or take a chance on whether IRCC will find out.

If I were a VO, googling an applicant's name and checking them out on social media would be one of the first things I'd do. Please see page 1 FAQs 17 and 41

Then that's a problem. You are better off raising a webform and letting them in one your new job. I think you may be able to get away with this. I wouldn't worry too much, as it's not an entirely big deal. Get a new employment letter, raise a webform and spill it out to them what happened. You may want to note that you didn't include it initially, because you didn't see the employment going anywhere initially and that you had an original job before then.

The major problem is the search turning out that you were employed in a company you didn't state.

Why not go to IRCC website and test the CRS tool with your situation? That's what's more appropriate. Give yourself possible IELTS score and state your working experience. Try with you as principal applicant and then your wife to see what works best.

As for PNP, your chances are better if you have relatives in Canada, work in healthcare or Tech, etc. Go to the respective province websites and see which applies best to you.

No you don’t need a transit visa. Check PPR stories on the Canadian student thread, most people go through Amsterdam or Paris.

Hello guys, I want to thank you all for your contribution on this EE partway it’s not easy, well I have some questions to ask.

I have Bsc in Management information technology (MIT) at benin republic and I do not have any work experience in my study field but I have work experience in other job which is barbing, I have 12 years experience and I own a salon which is registered under CAC. I do not have work experience in Tech but I Know little about Tech

So my questions are!!
1) How do I prove work experience as a salon owner?
2)Is there any possibility that barber can receive ITA from the EE or PNP?
3) Is barber as a profession high in demand in canada?

Thanks

You do not need a transit visa if only you will transit through one country, CDG or AMS but if you will have two stops then you must have a transit visa!!!!

Good day guys

I received an ITA few weeks back but when creating my Express entry profile, I listed my spouse work experience.
Now post ITA, IRCC is asking to upload her work experience reference, and getting this reference is quite difficult.

Can I remove her work experience and include it only in her Personal history section?
Removing it will not change our score

Thank you

You should claim work experience as a self-employed individual. Look here at how someone claimed points for self-employment.

Yes, a barber can receive ITA from the express entry pool, should you want to claim employment experience. Barbers are TEER 3 and that qualifies.

No, barbing is not a profession in high demand in Canada for a couple of reasons: most people can cut their hair themselves, so they don't need a barber. Even then, many Nigerians who are doing this work do it in their homes and, as a result, can charge very low ($10-20) to get it done. They can do that because they often have second jobs and barbing is a side hustle. You can't live on charging customers $10-20 per cut as a barber, except you are doing it as a side hustle. Finally, you can only serve a restricted market (Nigerians, and maybe some other Africans). You can't cut hair for Oyinbo people because you don't know how to manage their kind of hair, at least not yet. Most Oyinbo people won't even let you cut their hair because you have no knowledge of how to handle it.

Hello house
Please I have a question regarding the category based draws

I am the main applicant but I don’t have experience in any of the required categories.
Although my hubby has 6 months as a nurse aide.
Must he be the main applicant for us to be called in the category draws? Yes AFAIK
Or can I be the main applicant and we’ll get called based on his experience? No AFAIK
I am asking because we have a higher score with me as the main applicant.

Please see page 1 posts 3 and 4 - I believe it is only the primary NOC of the PA that counts

With the CRS score been quite high of recent, what's the probability of it going to a range 470s or when do you think it may get to that range of 470s.

Beautenoire:
None of you have Masters yet? If yes, your wife should quickly start a 1 year masters program while working. that way, she can become the primary applicant at 26/27 years old with a minimum of 3 years work experience and a masters degree.

But if you still want to be in the pool now, probably you have already taken the Ielts exam and already done your WES, you should be the primary but focus more on exploring the PNP route.

Please, how does the PNP route work? And how long does it take?

It's already at 476 for people with healthcare NOCs, see CRS trend on page 1 post 2 and the category based NOCs on page 1 post 4.

For NOCs that are not in any of the select categories, no one knows for certain, do your best to increase your score where possible while you wait.
Re: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Worker Program - Connect Here Part 11 by generaldandy: 4:34pm On Jul 06, 2023
The best option is to get additional qualification like MSc, PhD from a recognized uni or TEF (French) if you sabi your way like me, the real deal is to have the money to fund it.

You can also keep waiting for this score to go down in the next two years, be wise.
