Is it true if your foreign education matched Canadian equivalent of Bachelors (4 year degree). They will give you 600 points?

Hello Immigration Wizards,

I have gone through all the informative posts October 2017 onwards. You guys are just amazing. The zest of helping the needy is much beyond the appreciation.

I need your advice weather I should apply for EE or let my dream rest here. I am posting my case here & appeal you to be frank while guiding me.

Present Status: Me & my wife have applied for transcripts & authentications from respective Universities & are preparing for IELTS

About me:

Age: 46 years

Qualification: Diploma In Mechanical Engineering from MSBTE – WES Equivalent

Experience: 27 years (16 years in Manufacturing & 11 years as SAP Functional consultant) in same oraganisation.


About my wife:

Age: 43 Years

Qualification: BSC (Comp. Science) from Pune University

Executive MBA (Finance) from Pune University

Experience: 15 years in various organisations


If I become a PA, I may not even qualify for EE (will get 0 points for age). Hence my wife will be PA & I will be accompanying her. Her birthday is in September & hence even she won't qualify for EE after September (I guess).

I checked how much CRS we can get through http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp & it just crossed 310. Our age is letting us down.

My queries are,

1) I feel, unless we get nomination from PNP, we wont get ITA. Is it true?

2) Considering our age, how much is the probability of getting PNP nomination?

3) Should i really go ahead with the process? I don't mind risking few thousand INR for IELTS & ECA & atleast create EE profile.


Please guide
Hi,

Assuming your wife gets CLB9 in the IELTS test you will meet the minimum requirements for the FSWP. However, age is not on your side so it reduces your CRS score big time. Based on current trends it is difficult to see provinces giving you nomination based on your CRS score. Therefore, in my humble opinion is that it will be a bit of a stretch. However, as a man of faith, I believe nothing is impossible.

Ok my bad. I guess it was nothing.

Another question..

If I have a foreign bachelors degree (equivalent to 2 year diploma in Canada), Is it required to have that degree included in my CIC profile and also evaluated from WES in the CEC application or I can just hide that degree from the CIC application?

If you are not claiming any points for it you don't have to include it in the education history section. However, you have to mention it in your personal history if you have done it within the last 10 years. No evidence is required.

You can withdraw and submit a new profiles, no issues with that.
Hi DelPiero07,
Thanks a ton!! I went back into submitted application and did the editing. As per my ECA, the diploma was considered as secondary school diploma (2 years). Hence I had selected secondary diploma (graduation) in EE profile.
It was because, I got confused with word diploma. However after you said, I checked again and found "2 years course from technical school". I selected this, saved the application again and re-submitted the same again. Now my score is 434!! yay :D
All thanks to you Sir. Only question, I have edited the same application & re-submitted it. hope that is OK and allowed. Pl let me know.

Hi,

There is a difference in the transferable skills and your spouses education.
Does she have an ECA?
What is your highest level of education?
Hi TanakaM,
Thanks a lot for your help. The problem is sorted out. I have 2 degrees, first Diploma in electrical Engg (2 years sec school diploma as per ECA) and B.Tech. in electrical Engg (4 years bachelor degree as per ECA)
It was selection of degree type in studies section with regards to my diploma. I edited the same application & re-submitted it. Now the score being shown is 434!!
I wholeheartedly thank you :)
Just tell me if I edit & re-submit same application, is it OK?

@TanakaM,
Thanks for a straight forward reply. I rest my dream here :cool:
I hope, other experts have similar opinion.
I owe you thousands of Indian Rupees, which i probably had spent for EE profile creation ;).

Wishing you tons of enthusiasm, energy & time to continue your mission of helping/guiding the needy..

Hello
I have some problem regarding POF.
Actually earlier during OINP I had shown 12 lakhs savings in bank and 7 lakhs amount of PF of my husband.
* Now I had only 7 lakhs left in my account. But I will attach PF statement also again.
Will it create problem regarding funds if I do not have minimum required funds in my account?
Urgent

Hi,
What to do if there is no Family name mentioned in the Passport? CIC is asking to mention all the Given Names in Family name field and leave Given Names field blank.
The problem with Province(NSNP) is we cannot leave any names field blank.
Could anyone suggest what to do.
Regards

Hi,

It ok to combine the cash in your account with the PF statements. It doesnt all have to be in the account.
