No, do not need at all

Ok, so I can just put a letter in this section to say that I don't need to provide this proof?

Hi all. I have received an invitation to CEC. I do not have work experience after graduation in Canada. But I do have work experience oversea in Asia with a Candian company. As far as I know, only a year of Canadian experience would count towards the CEC minimum requirement.

Would the experience where the contract signed in Asia but working for a Canadian count towards that? Thank you, everyone.

It has to be in Canada. This is from the government website: "the CEC requires that applicants demonstrate they acquired skilled work experience in Canada through authorized employment by a third party."

I need help!
So CRS calculator shows less points then EE. HOW COME?
1) In work history I mentioned all places I worked at and it is less than 1 year experience (I came pretty young to Canada, so it logical), so I am not planning on getting any documents and proving I worked there since it wont affect my points much and I don't want to bother with all this papers. Is that ok?
2) And same for my husband - system is calculating his Canadian experience, but as my lawyer explained, since he was not employed (he was working for cash/ cheques and paid his taxes on his own so kind of self employed and that time cannot be calculated for Canadian work experience. I think I get hoigher points because of this situation. What to do? I cannot just not mention his work in Canada, so what is next?
THANK you all so much!

This appears in your "Application status and messages" page post the medical is passed. But, do not worry about that too much. It's an auto-calculated value based on the remaining time of 6 months from AOR. There are people who received COPR before it reached 100%, and there are people who didn't receive COPR post 100%.

For PR, you have to give your biometric each time you apply. Biometrics are good for 10yrs only for Temporary resident applications.
