Work experience

Each job is one record at Profile → Work Experience. The form has four sections — Location, Role, Terms, and Pay — and the country you pick in the first one decides which fields the rest of the form asks for.

The work history list with the Total years, Canadian, and Foreign tiles above it.

Section 1 — Location

Field	What it means	Required
Country of Work	Must be selected from Lexpoint’s country list.	Yes
City in Canada	Searchable Canadian locations list. Appears when the country is Canada. Province is set from the city you pick.	Yes for Canadian work
State	US state list. Appears when the country is United States.	Yes for US work
City	Free text. Appears for US work alongside the state.	No
City/Location	Free text. Appears for every other country.	No

Canadian and US work are validated against fixed lists — a Canadian city or a US state that is not on the list is rejected. Everywhere else the city is free text.

Section 2 — Role

Field	What it means	Required
Occupation (NOC Code)	Searchable by NOC code or job title. Stored as a five-digit code.	Yes
Job Title	The title you held. Pre-filled from the NOC selection and editable.	Yes

Choosing a NOC loads two panels: NOC Information with the code, title, and TEER level, and Program Eligibility. The info icon opens the full NOC detail with duties, requirements, and the program list.

Section 3 — Terms

Field	What it means	Required
Start Date	Cannot be in the future.	Yes
End Date	Hidden when Current job is on. Must be after the start date and not in the future.	Yes for past jobs
Current job	Toggle — Still working in this role. Turning it on clears the end date.	No
Permanent position	Toggle. Appears only for Canadian work.	No
LMIA or job offer	Toggle — Supported by an LMIA or employer-specific work offer. Appears only for Canadian work.	No
Self-employed	Toggle.	No
Work during full-time study	Toggle.	No

The section closes with a note that self-employment and work during full-time study often do not count toward CEC. Those two toggles change how the job is treated in the totals below — see Which jobs count toward the totals.

Section 4 — Pay

Field	What it means	Required
Work schedule	Hours per week, between 1 and 80. How many hours you worked each week. Full-time = 30+.	Yes
Hourly pay rate	Canadian dollars per hour, up to 500. Appears only for Canadian work, where the form notes it as an OINP compliance input.	Yes for Canadian work

Once a NOC and a location are set, the section loads a wage benchmark and shows whether your rate meets the median and low reference wages for that occupation and place.

The Pay section for a Canadian job, showing the wage benchmark beside the entered hourly rate.

Which jobs count toward the totals

Three tiles sit above the list: Total years, Canadian, and Foreign. They do not simply add up your date ranges. Lexpoint marks each job as counting or not, and the tiles sum only the ones that count, using the eligible days calculated for each job rather than the raw span.

A job is excluded when any of the following applies, and the card shows the reason:

Reason shown	What triggers it
Over 10 years old	The start date is more than ten years ago.
TEER 4+ (not CEC)	Canadian work whose NOC TEER is outside 0–3.
Self-employed (not CEC)	Canadian work with the Self-employed toggle on.
During study (not CEC)	Canadian work with the Work during full-time study toggle on.
TEER 4+ (not FSW/CEC)	Non-Canadian work whose NOC TEER is outside 0–3.

These are Lexpoint’s own inclusion rules for the numbers it shows you. Whether a particular job counts toward a given immigration program is IRCC’s and the provinces’ to decide — for that, see immigratic.com or book a consultation.

The list can be filtered with the All, Canadian, and Foreign chips.

NOC fit checks

Each job card carries a Check NOC fit action — Upload a letter — Lexi scores employment checklist and NOC fit. Once a check has run, the chip becomes NOC fit · Pass or NOC fit · Fail (pass only when both the letter check and the NOC check pass), NOC fit · Stale when the job has changed since the check, or NOC fit · Retry when the check failed. Selecting the chip opens the full assessment.

Adding and editing

1. Open Profile → Work Experience.
2. Select Add Work Experience.
3. Work through Location, Role, Terms, and Pay. The last section’s button saves.
4. On the list, jobs sort with the primary job first, then most recent start date. The pencil icon reopens a job.

A job with no country recorded is flagged in red on the card — those records predate the country requirement and need the field filled in.
