Indian National Boosts Canadian PR Hopes with Dual Work Experience Strategy

Sanjay Reddy, a 28-year-old Indian national, is set to enhance his prospects of securing permanent residence in Canada via the Express Entry system. By accumulating one year of both Canadian and foreign work experience simultaneously, he could witness his Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score surge by over 60 points, potentially matching the cut-off score for recent draws.

Reddy's strategy involves working for both a Canadian and an Indian employer, ensuring he fulfills the eligibility requirements for both Canadian Experience Class (CEC) and Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP). He will need to complete at least 30 hours of work per week for 12 months to claim one year of experience for each job.

Under Express Entry, foreign work experience must be gained under proper authorization in the respective country, paid, and completed outside Canada. Meanwhile, Canadian work experience requires physical presence and authorization to work under temporary status, working for a Canadian employer, and being paid. Reddy's plan enables him to amass experience under both sets of rules.

By successfully gaining one year of both Canadian and foreign work experience, Reddy's CRS score will escalate from 470 to 533. This could significantly bolster his chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) through Express Entry, bringing him one step closer to permanent residence in Canada.
