Self employed/ Express entry

[cec immigration]

I have a query regarding self employed people in express entry. If I have been self employed after completion of my studies am I eligible under express entry. I passed out from my University in 2013 and from then I am working as a self employed lawyer. I am also filling my taxes as a self employed laywer. Can I make a express entry profile or am I eligible under FSW.

I searched it over the internet and entire CIC website but they don't have any information regarding same.

As long as you have a year of continuous work experience and you meet the eligibility criteria of the FSW program (67/100 points) then yes.

to qualify for FSW you need a year of continuous full-time work experience, self-employment counts for meeting this requirement.
