Hi! I have a Bachelor's in Accounting from my home country. Is it possible to pursue a nursing degree in Canada even with my first degree? Will I be considered an undergraduate for BSN? Or can I take a short course to get the required credits then take a second-entry program? Are there students...

Candidates with scores above the cutoff but do not fall under CEC, still have a chance to get an ITA? My family got PR in 2008 with my mother as principal applicant. I was a minor when we lost the status. When I make an EE profile now, do I answer yes or no to "Have you applied to immigration...

Oh, why neither?

Hi! Does the job offer with LMIA need to be the same with our primary noc in our express entry profile? Or any as long as skill type 0,A,B?

Hi! That's an amazing achievement for 6 months of study! Congratulations! May I ask what is your first language? Mine is English :) Can you please share study strategy/tips on learning French? I'm also looking for ways to increase my score other than trying for pgwp (it seems costly with a lot...

Hi, I need advice please. After retaking the IELTS, I was able to get a 441 score. I thought it was high enough, but I think it might still be insufficient given the current trend of cutoff scores. So, I have been looking for ways to get points and thought of going for the Two or more degrees...

Hi, I am also hoping for a PNP from BC, ON, and AB. I selected these in my EE profile and gave consent for my info to be reviewed by BC and ON authorities. I noticed AB does not have this consent question. What does this mean? Is it automatic for AB?

------------- Bumping this up! Would like to know what this means for us. The first few sentences sounds okay, but I got lost with the phrase "accelerated form". Does it mean overloading on units and finishing the program early? The example given is not clear either, at least for me... Please...

Hi, Thank you for your inputs! I forgot to mention I have some experience as 1111. Together with my primary NOC, it totals to a bit over 3 years. Yes, I am disappointed with the grade I got for writing. This time the target is to get perfect or near perfect scores. (It sounds exaggerated, but...

Hi, I have 393 points as of today and am looking for ways to actively increase my score. This thread can help other candidates in a similar predicament. Here's the basic info of my profile: Within the 25-29 age bracket IELTS score: L-9.0 / R - 8.0 / S-7.5 / W - 6.5 Primary NOC: 6222, 2.5years...

Same conundrum! How do we increase score?! IELTS sure. The next viable option that came to me is to take up a non thesis Master's degree. (Non thesis because dissertations could take up a long time to complete.) But I am not sure with this method, if we factor in years of study and tuition...

I love this thread! The entries here are a delight to read - insightful and practical, not sugarcoated at all. Hope this thread is continually updated with experience and tips, especially topics that touches on finance and tax avoidance. :)

Thank you for the reply! I see, that's good to hear. Will it matter if we choose an NOC that is different from our educational background? Example, a person has a bachelor's in psychology but works as a branch manager for 3 years. (So in his/her EE profile, he chooses branch manager as his...

Same question. What to do?

Hi! Is it alright if we don't include income tax returns in the submission of ITA documents? If it's required, can we submit returns tagged as late filing? I work in family business..

Hi! Did you (or do you know someone who) successfully applied for Express Entry with family business as his/her work experience? May I know the steps he/she did? Thanks!

Hi! One of my previous jobs include working as an accountant. Classification NOC 1111 A includes this paragraph: Employment requirements Chartered professional accountants, chartered accountants (CPA, CA) require a university degree and completion of a professional training program approved...

Hi! Question for CPAs: Can we classify our work as NOC 1111 (A), even if we don't have the Canadian CPA designation? Or we can use this NOC as long as it fits our job description/work experience? And all skill types (0,A,B) have equal chances of getting ITA right? I currently work as a retail...

Phew, ok, I'm going to give it another go. Thank you for your help! :)

Okay, thanks. I'm relieved about it. Will it be detrimental to my chances if I update my submitted EE profile by changing the NOC?
