Arranged Employment showing as "0" in CRS even though NOC A with Code 2171

[VeenaK]

Yes, that's why.

I tried changing it to Yes - I have 1 year experience since I will be completing 1 year in 13 days. However, I still do not see 50 points.

Now I changed it back to no but I am not sure what is missing and why CRS score is not increased by 50 point even saying yes to 1 year question. Any idea?

The same is happening to me in 2024… I need those extra points. Why isn’t anything working?

What is your question?

What is your question?

I have a job offer and have been working at my current job for a little over 2 years. But I didn’t get the crs points for arranged employment in my express entry profile.

Further up, someone said that when you are on a post grad work permit (which I am), you don’t qualify for those points. I didn’t get to see that reply until I made my post.

Very unfortunate to hear, but I’m wondering if there is a way to work around that?

Yes, the way around that is for your employer to obtain an approved LMIA.

You only get points if have a LMIA and on a closed work permit.

Hello, I’m on an open work permit. I have been working for my employer for more than a year now. My job is Lmia-exempt. However, I didn’t get the additional 50 points for arranged employment.

I would like to know the correct answer for this specific question.

Was a positive labour market impact assessment isssued for the current work permit?

I answered no since my job is exempt for a lmia, there were other specific no answers.

You are on an open work permit so don’t get 50 points. LMIA-exempt permits are through company transfers, FTA and then you get a closed work permit.

You don't qualify for the 50 points.

You need to be on a closed / employer specific work permit to qualify for the 50 points in an LMIA exempt situation. Your employer either need to get an approved LMIA or you need to switch to a closed work permit.
