i thiink you should not get less than 25 points esp if you have atleast 1 year of articleship or verifiable experience from ACCA.

what i meant was that your work experience should be acceptable towards your full membership of ACCA, as that will easily make you qualify under NOC:1111 and will qualify you for max. education points i.e. 25 points.

Where is the equivalency certificate from? Is it from WES? or UK NARIC? I'm not so sure Canada would accept equivalency certs from another country. You might want to check out the FCRO in canada to be certain. |

Hi guys,
I am ACCA affiliate with almost 3 years of auditing experince from Big4. I have OBU degree as well.
I have read this thread and according to my understanding, If I get equivalence certificate from ACCA, I can claim 25 points for education. Am I correct ?
Does anyone know someone who applied as ACCA and got the visa ?
Looking forward to your replies.

I think ACCA nad CGA (Certified General Accountant-a canadian degree) has an exchange agreement.It helps to easily qualify for canadian job.

No they dont. They consider ACCA as a bachelor degree. |
