Grewal<\/a><\/strong> is an immigration and estates lawyer known for clear communication and practical strategy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<p>Since November 3, 2026, a qualifying job offer in a high-wage occupation can earn 50, 70 or 100 Express Entry points, and no LMIA is needed. That makes the job offer worth checking, and IRCC says it &#8220;will continue to verify qualifying job offers and take measures to identify and address potential fraud or misrepresentation.&#8221; If an officer doubts your offer, the usual concerns are that the job is not genuine, that the duties do not match the occupation you claimed, or that the employer cannot meet the terms. Losing the points can sink the application. A finding that the offer was overstated can do worse.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lawgical-firm-line\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawgicalcorp.com\/immigration\/permanent-residence\/\">Lawgical Law Corporation<\/a>, an immigration law firm in Surrey, Abbotsford and Vancouver, BC, answers Express Entry fairness letters and takes refusals to the Federal Court; this guide is by Pardeep S. Grewal.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"rule\">What counts as a qualifying job offer now?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A high-wage occupation:<\/strong> the level is set by the occupation&#8217;s national median wage compared with the median for the whole work force (1.3, 1.5 or 2 times). IRCC says it &#8220;is not determined based on a person&#8217;s specific job position or salary.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Points:<\/strong> 50, 70 or 100, depending on the level, with a cap on the labour market factor. Points for high-wage Canadian work experience are an alternative; you get whichever is higher.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The offer:<\/strong> generally full-time, continuous work in Canada for at least one year after you become a permanent resident.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Genuine:<\/strong> an officer must decide the offer is genuine, including whether the employer can reasonably meet its terms. &#8220;A job offer that is revoked will no longer qualify.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your level is locked in<\/strong> on the date you were invited, even if the occupation list changes later.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"lawyer-or-consultant\">Why this needs a lawyer<\/h2>\n<p><strong>One lawyer, one file, every step:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>checking the occupation code against the actual duties before you claim the points;<\/li>\n<li>a fairness letter response with the employer&#8217;s records;<\/li>\n<li>judicial review if the officer ignored the evidence;<\/li>\n<li>advice on correcting your profile if the offer changed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Immigration lawyers are members of a provincial law society (in our case, the Law Society of British Columbia), and only lawyers can appear for you in the Federal Court.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"options\">What are my options?<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Answer the fairness letter<\/strong> with a detailed offer letter, the employer&#8217;s business records, proof it can pay the wage, and an explanation of how the duties fit the occupation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tell IRCC<\/strong> if the offer was withdrawn or changed. Claiming points for an offer that no longer exists is a misrepresentation risk.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Judicial review<\/strong> if you were refused despite clear evidence.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A new profile<\/strong> with an accurate score, if the offer really doesn&#8217;t qualify.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If the officer decides the offer doesn&#8217;t qualify, the points come off. If your score then falls below the cutoff for the round you were invited in, the application is refused. It works the same way as Express Entry refusals where a certificate of qualification is not accepted; see our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawgicalcorp.com\/blog\/express-entry-refused-pesticide-certificate-coq\/\">a refused certificate of qualification<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"table\">High-wage job offer points at a glance<\/h2>\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Question<\/th>\n<th>Answer<\/th>\n<th>Source<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>When did the points start?<\/td>\n<td>November 3, 2026<\/td>\n<td>IRCC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Is an LMIA needed?<\/td>\n<td>No, for these points<\/td>\n<td>IRCC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Points for a qualifying offer<\/td>\n<td>50, 70 or 100<\/td>\n<td>IRCC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Is the level based on my own salary?<\/td>\n<td>No, on the occupation<\/td>\n<td>IRCC high-wage page<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Does a revoked offer count?<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<td>IRCC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Risk of an overstated offer<\/td>\n<td>Misrepresentation and a five-year ban<\/td>\n<td>IRPA s.40<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"example\">Worked example: the duties letter<\/h2>\n<p>Example. A software developer in Vancouver is invited with job offer points. On Tuesday, November 24, 2026, she receives a fairness letter saying her duties look like a lower-level occupation. Her lawyer files the employer&#8217;s detailed duties letter, her code review records, the org chart and the company&#8217;s financial statements, and explains how the work matches the occupation she claimed.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mistakes\">Mistakes I have seen<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>I have seen candidates pick the occupation code with the most points rather than the one that fits their duties.<\/li>\n<li>I have seen job offer letters with no duties, hours or wage.<\/li>\n<li>I have seen candidates keep claiming points after their employer withdrew the offer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"faq\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary>Does my salary have to be high?<\/summary>\n<p>The level comes from the occupation, not your pay.
