Hi everyone,

I and my common-law partner are waiting in the Express Entry (EE) pool at 473 points. I am the primary applicant while my partner is included as a dependant. Due to the uncertainty of FSW draws, we are thinking of creating a separate EE profile for my partner to increase the chances of receiving a PNP nomination.

In my EE profile, I left out my partner`s work experience, mainly to avoid extra paperwork at our end and there are no extra points awarded for spouse`s foreign work experience. I will mention all her work history post-ITA in the personal history section or wherever applicable.

1. Now if she creates a separate EE profile including me as a dependant, is it required to list out my work history at this point. I just want to avoid the extra paperwork plus we don`t get any extra points for my experience here.

2. Also, would it be completely fine for my partner to create a separate EE profile and claim points for her experience? I am asking this because I left out her work experience in my EE profile where she is included as a dependant. Would this look normal as I left out her work experience in my profile but she will claim points for her work ex. in her profile?

I hope I didn`t make it confusing.

Your input really matters! Thanks in advance.
 
People leave out work experience all the time. You claim what counts toward eligibility/CRS and provide paperwork for what you claimed. Everything else — no points, no paperwork.
