foreign [Music] has opened in 2022 and today I'll be talking about how to prove your work experience for an online Express entry application to Canada hi I'm Jay Calvert I own and operate Calvert immigration Consulting Inc where a full service immigration firm located in Ontario Canada so you've created a profile for Express entry you're either in the pool waiting or even better you're lucky to have an ITA which is an invitation to apply under the permanent residency streams through Express entry for an Express entry application you need to have one year of continuous work experience in your primary occupation you'll also need to show that you have if you're claiming points for it work experience in other skilled occupations that are listed in your profile remember for an Express entry application you only need to prove the points for which you're claiming so do the calculation and make sure that you're not making it too difficult on yourself by overcompensating and providing too much work experience documentation when we're providing work experience proof and evidence for an Express entry application we always always want to see a work experience letter I'll provide a sample below that you can download it is a standard of proof that is used in Express entry applications these work experience letters should be printed on company letterhead with the company's contact information in the letter we should have the start date that you started if you're still employed or if not the end date your occupation title how many hours you worked weekly your salary and a detailed list of your duties and responsibilities the most important part here is that the duties listed in your letter need to match the leads statement and the duties from your chosen Nock so for example if you're working as a software engineer your duties in the letter the officer will take those duties and compare it against the occupation code that you've selected in your profile they will determine if the majority of those Duties are reflected in your letter that's what makes the officer say yes I think that this person performed these duties or no I don't think that this is legitimate I think that they were working in another occupation therefore I'm refusing the application in addition to this we also like to include a few additional documents that can be helpful for an Express entry application I like to include proof of payment for the duration of the period of employment so payslips are best but if not tax statements will do or deposits into your bank account this can be helpful to show that you are legitimately working here and that you truly were working at this company in addition to this there are further complications when it comes to express entry work one of those is self-employed work many of my clients come to me and say Jade I was self-employed for most of the last 10 years how will I ever prove what I was doing so remember those criteria that I just listed for the work experience letters we have to think about how as a self-employed person you can prove that you are doing all of those things so that you meet those criteria within your documentation so start date and date your title your duties and how much you are making so for a self-employed person we usually put together proof of incorporation a letter from your CPA stating that they were your accountant and how long you were active for the tax filings for your company for the years that you were active invoices and their receipts for the duration of the employment letters from suppliers letters from clients all of this comes together to confirm what you are doing as a self-employed person if there there any certifications or qualifications that you need to own that business or maybe you are working as a franchisee a letter from your franchise or it can help anything that comes together to corroborate the fact that you are self-employed so this is how Express entry work experience is evaluated if you have any questions about how to best represent your situation in an Express entry profile and any evidence that's needed to support your work experience we are happy to help again check our downloads below and if you're looking for more information please find Us online we're online at calvaryimmigrationservices.com foreign
