I have 384 Points, any chance I can get invitation next couple of months

[Vishnuchintu]

Hi I am working in Canada now as a programmer and I have Indian bachelors and Canadian post secondary education. Combining all of that I have384 points. While waiting to finish my 1 year, should I apply in Express entry pool for FSW. Any chance I can get invitation.

Any help will be appreciated.

384 is very unlikely this year, improve the score and then try.

I have 456 and I do not know whether i will get an ITA or not...

No chance. You need to increase your score.

Technically all the profiles under 450 are ineligible to apply for pr. It won't go below 450. So sad you got education in canada and working here and treated like trash .. oh did i offended you? Power plant operator working in a high effecency power plant in canada this side but still waiting to be invited at 448. No hopes buddy .

You have two qualifications and your post was very clear so that leads me to think that you should do well on language tests. What was your IELTS or CELPIP score? If you're in your 20s or early 30s you should be able to score much higher than 384 with two degrees and good language scores.

I got 12, 12 , 7, 8. So I am getting 21 points out of 24.

Thank you all for replies

Indian degrees aren't recognized by ECA organizations. So no points there. This person is also sure to have the minimal score for language.

I have 21 points out of 24 and I am not sure if they are good or bad.

 

[Vishnuchintu]

You have low points because you haven't done ECA. You haven't done ECA because Indian degrees are not from recognized institutions. Therefore in my opinion, with your score you have no hope for ITA for this year.

Where do you guys calculate for fsw points.

There is definite merit in getting your Bachelors ECA done if you don't have an LMIA supported job offer or PNP. In such a case, you will need to maximize your points and the best way to do that is by having 'Two or more degrees..'. You will have that provided you get an ECA for your Bachelors in addition to your Canadian diploma (which I assume is at least a 1 year post graduate diploma).

All the best!

I believe that you have a chance based on their strategy. They are doing it bits by bits
to prevent backlog on their path and smooth transition. I believe the next draw will be about 420 upwards.

I think they should reach 300 by the end of December. Be optimistic.

This will never happen.
