CSR 465?

It might take sometime but it will happen. Chill and wait.

May be learn french to get those juicy juicy french girlfriends CSR points. Its hard work but it pays. Besides you get to listen to wonderful songs like this :

and apparently Quebec has best girls to boot. So spend some effort on french. Ask @mushymush how. He did it recently, mastered french and got an invite.

PNP? Well look for Ontario's PNP program but it gets sporty there for invites. Then there is https://www.alberta.ca/aaip-alberta-express-entry-stream-eligibility.aspx but, it is baised towards those with job offers in alberta. Given the job market, its not the best option.

Other option is to transfer to Canada via your existing employer. I did this. Smoothest path but you need the right employer.


lastly out of curiosity, you worked in hospitality as a part time job in Australia while doing your masters?

 

[GandiBaat]

Do you have a certificate of qualification from a Canadian province, territory or federal body?

For you thats likely a no IMHO. Its for folks in Trades like Electrician Plumber HVAC etc.

Hello everyone. I just submitted my PR application and got AOR on the same day. However, I just realised I messed up my 'Personal History' section. Because I have been claiming points for Education in 2016 and work in 2017-2018, I continued adding the rest of my activities as from 2018 to today. I noticed it had to be put in order of most recent activities.

Will my application be rejected based on this?

It's all on the CIC site: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp

But...

(Please note that this info does not apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program)

1) Determine your eligibility by doing this CIC quiz http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/ee-start.asp

2) Get your language test(s) done. You must get at least CLB 7 in each of the four sections for the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) or Canadian Experience Class (CEC) streams. But getting CLB 10 gives you maximum points for language.

How does CLB match back to the language tests? That info is here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/language/charts.asp

3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp

4) Determine the code that best applies to you on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/noc.asp

The occupation must be NOC 0, A, or B for FSW or CEC.

5) When you have those in hand you create your express entry profile. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/profile.asp and register for the Job Bank http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/home-eng.do?lang=eng

You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/pool.asp

Of course, the more points you have the better. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer with a very hard to get Labour Market Impact Assessment http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp

For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.

6) Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following:

a) Have your application fee (C$550 each for principal applicant and spouse) and right of permanent resident fee (C$490 each for principal applicant and spouse) ready
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp

b) Identify how you will provide proof of funds http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp

c) check out what is required for the police certificates http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/security/police-cert/index.asp

d) find out how long it takes to get a date for the medical exam. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp

e) contact previous and current employers about them providing job letters. You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week. Work experience while you were a full-time student does not count.

f) research cities in the province(s) where you want to live.

How can I get Job offer

How can I get Job offer

Apply for jobs on Canadian job sites. Get LMIA from employer to prove no Canada or PR can do the job, only you.

 

[Braykhna Khan]

Hello guys,

How many points does LMIA give us? My employer is ready to give me an LMIA but just wondering how many exactly will it provide me? my TEER is 2 and I am Early Childhood Educator Assistant. My CSR score right now is 440.

 

[WPTO]

Does IRCC consider only 30/week for Full-time work to determine eligibility under EE? Also, will my co-op work experience be qualified for SFW under EE?

IRCC considers full time works as one year and at least 1,560 hours total (30 hours per week). Don’t know what SFW is.

Hi Guys,
CEC INLAND
AOR : 10th Dec
Needed suggestion regarding my employer reference letter ( Foreign work experience).

My employer reference letter has all the details except the annual salary mentioned on it.
I have submitted my payslips along with the letter.

Would it be a problem going forward?
Or should i submit the webform and LOE?

Good day all, thanks for all the help you provide to aspirants. I will like to ask a question. For spouse who will be traveling together and want to apply for the express entry, do we have to create different profiles and apply for ECA report separately, or will it be the one applicant and the spouse not applying for anything just dominant.

Not sure your question. So you can apply for EE as the principal applicant and married with one application. The spouse doesn’t need to take ECA and IELTS if not counting points, and can be listed as non accompanying as points will be higher.

Hello everyone. Have a simple question: I'm on an open work permit (SOWP) and want to apply for PR soon. I had started an online diploma course in 2021, which is still going on, which is equivalent to a Canadian diploma, before I arrived in Canada (in 2023) on the OWP. The diploma is about to end soon now.

My OWP states that I cannot study on this work permit. Does that mean I cannot use my diploma CRS points for my PR application?

Bonjour je suis un nouveau membre du forum et je veux de l’aide et des informations qui m’aideront a immigrer au canada j’ai aucun métier spécialisé je suis chauffeur VTC je suis en AFRIQUE précisement en côte d’ivoire

 

[hubertodarling]

Salut tout le monde,

Besoin de votre aide/conseil/suggestion.

y a-t-il un fil de discussion dans ce forum vers lequel quelqu'un peut m'indiquer, qui fournira des instructions étape par étape sur la façon de postuler au processus d'entrée express (dans l'ordre).
S'il n'y a pas de fil de cette boîte, quelqu'un qui a une compréhension approfondie du processus pourrait-il en créer un et le mettre comme collant?

Je suis un peu confus quant à ce que serait la première étape de la demande d'EE et ses étapes correspondantes.
Bien que le site Web fournisse des instructions dans une certaine mesure, je ne suis pas entièrement convaincu car je comprends qu'il en faut beaucoup plus que ce qui est mentionné sur le site Web.

Ces instructions seront utiles non seulement pour moi mais aussi pour de nombreux aspirants qui recherchent une compréhension lucide du processus.

Merci à tous pour votre temps.
