Indian Worker Boosts CRS Score by 60 Points in a Year with Dual Employment Strategy
Sanjay Reddy, a 28-year-old Indian foreign worker in Canada, has discovered a strategy to boost his Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score by over 60 points in a single year. By working simultaneously for both a Canadian and an Indian employer, he can gain one year of eligible Canadian work experience and one year of eligible foreign work experience, significantly improving his chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) under Canada's Express Entry system.
Reddy's approach involves remote work for a foreign employer while physically present in Canada and working for a Canadian employer. This allows him to accumulate work experience in both countries simultaneously, provided it meets all eligibility criteria. Each Express Entry program has different work experience requirements. For instance, the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) demands two years of full-time work experience in a skilled trade within the last five years, while the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) requires one year of continuous full-time work in the same National Occupational Classification (NOC) as the primary occupation within the last ten years. The Canadian Experience Class (CEC) requires one year of full-time Canadian work experience in NOC TEER levels 0, 1, 2, or 3 within the last three years. By strategically managing his work arrangements, Reddy can potentially gain up to two years of work experience in a single year, with a maximum of 30 hours per week for each job.
Reddy's CRS score will leap from 470 to 533, solely due to the gained foreign and Canadian work experience. This score meets the cut-off for recent CEC draws, enhancing his likelihood of receiving an ITA. To claim work experience from both countries simultaneously, candidates must ensure their experience meets the eligibility requirements of their chosen Express Entry stream and general requirements for Canadian and foreign work experience.
Reddy's innovative approach to gaining work experience demonstrates the potential benefits of strategic planning within Canada's Express Entry system. By maximizing his work experience, he has significantly improved his chances of receiving an ITA and ultimately, Canadian permanent residence. This strategy highlights the importance of understanding and leveraging the system's rules to one's advantage.
