Hi everyone, I also applied for PR in Venezuela, just got the visa in Nov 2010 and the case was also processed by the Case Processing Pilot-Ottawa, though it was initially processed in Caracas since early 2007. As mentioned by maq0r, many Venezuelan applicants network through mequieroir.com, there's even a topic there for Ottawa-processed cases.

Hi I am Venezuelan too!
What i dislike about mequieroir.com forum is the search feature. It doesn't work as it supposed to. And the organization of the forum is not what i expected. I've found a lot of information here and ofc also in mequieroir but i think it's better.
I'm about to apply!

Hello everyone! I´m not from Venezuela, I´m from Guatemala and haven´t found anyone from my country here or in "me quiero ir" hope you don´t mind. I´m just waiting for my IELTS results to send my application, hope everything is ok. Do you guys know if work experience before gratuating is good for points? I really need those points!
Where are you in the process? I am very excited about sending the application package and want to do it at soon as possible. I´m applying as an Architect NOC 2151 what are your NOC`s?
Saludos, Mónica

DOn't mind me at all! As latinoamericans we need to stick together and share our experiences about this process. I'm just about to apply. I have almost all the requirements. In concern about your doubt I think you should read in the 2151 noc page where it says something about requirements for that occupation. If it states technical you are in! I know you are not a technician but you can explain this issue on a explanation letter along your application. ok??

As mentioned by MBRT, check out the NOC description. The FSW requirement is 1 year of full-time experience. If NOC description allows, and, say, you worked 2 part-time years, that could meet the requirement, but again, check it out, and provide some sort of cover letter explaining the rationale. If it's not too much to ask, how many points are you missing and under what assumption of IELTS score?

Hi guys, thank you for your answer, here is the thing, I graduated in 2004. I worked since May 2002 through June 2004 in a company performing most of the main duties listed in NOC 2151, after that I worked also as an architect for 6 month in another company, after that worked in some other NOC for 8 months. After that worked for 9 months as self-employed also as an architect, later on was a consultant architect for another company for 6 months. The question is, the work experience have to be consecutive, I know minimum you need to have one consecutive year, but can I add the 6 months and then the 9 months, etc? I´m really confused  If I take 2 years of work experience I need to get two "High proficency" in my IELTS results... maybe I´ll wait for my results before getting too worried What do you think?

The "years of work experience" is not the same as the "NOC experience" requirement. If you have experience in other occupations, you can claim those points in the work experience section AS LONG AS you meet the minimum 1-year requirement in the Architect NOC (without that, you must not even apply). Anyway, as for the IELTS, you should aim at getting nothing below 7.0

IELTS below 7.0 is also good for you in order to obtain high proficiency. I don't remember very well but i think it's this way: 6.5+ in reading, speaking and writing and 7.0+ in listening would give you high proficiency.
What i don't completely understand is your experience on NOC 2151. did you work 1 year in this occupation?

Yes you are right, reading, speaking and writing = 6.5 and listening =7 to obtain high proficiency. I can´t wait for my results, they said we can check online tomorrow .What i don't completely understand is your experience on NOC 2151. did you work 1 year in this occupation? Yes I did, two continuos years before graduating as an architect but performing main duties of the NOC.
