Exactly; 452. Sorry for the confusion; not enough caffeine in my system at that time ;D

Got my ITA back in February (447 points) and been gathering papers ever since. Just dropped by to tell you guys not to lose faith; for a very long time nobody believed that the scores would drop below 450, and last year when I went to 447 from 552 it felt awful. But the wait was worth it. Keep...

Thanks for the reply :)

This is probably a dumb question but never hurts to ask I guess :) My wife is the primary applicant in our EE profile because we got more points that way (due to age) and we just got our ITA. My question is this: obviously when this is done and done and we land in Canada, she will get her new...

Congratulations to everybody! I am at 447 so yay :D Oh man, I still can't believe it heh.

That is my expectation as well, especially for the next few months.

As we draw closer to 450 (and below), the number of applicants that have that kind of numbers will naturally increase. Especially under 450 there will be a lot of people (myself included) that are there, waiting for their chance all these years. So if they keep up with the high invitation...

Which would be the logical thing to assume, except you can't compare apples to oranges really. We have new rules now, 600 points from LMIAs are history plus last year the numbers were greatly decreased due to the refugee problem :)

If they draw a similar number of people, I'd say 447 for the next draw. Which is fine by me because that's where I sit. Hey, we did say ray of hope, didn't we? ;D

Congrats to everyone that got their ITA :)

Hopefully everyone will get one sooner or later :)

Even though I rarely post, I follow all the ray of hope threads :) I am currently sitting at 447, wife being the primary applicant because she's younger than me; other than that we both have the same qualifications, perfect IELTS scores and an MSc each, but lose a lot of points due to age. I am...

Thanks for the quick reply; appreciated :)

Quick question: I need WES verification for my degrees and my wife's degrees (one BSc and one MSc each). Do I make two separate applications, and thus pay $200x2, or can I make one application and inside add our 4 degrees?

Ooh, hadn't caught that. Cheers mate, much appreciated :D

That endorsement thing is what troubles me really; I got my MSc in 2003. Which means I have nobody to endorse me right now in the UK. Any idea how I should go about this? I never had an accountant there, never worked there; just got my MSc and that's it :/

Me and my wife have both gotten our MSc degrees in the UK and now we are in the process of gathering the necessary papers for EE. Here's my question: do we really need a PCC from the UK? We never spent more than 6 months in the country (started in October, left for Christmas/New year, left again...

Understood, thanks. My wife will come with me, and she wants to be able to work too. So I go the EE route, and after X months I get an invitation to send my papers in order to get permanent residence. Is that all I need? Will I be able to take that, go to an employer in Canada and say hire me...

Thanks for the quick reply, appreciate it :) Two more questions if you don't mind; I am trying to learn as much as possible so as not to bother everyone, but the paperwork can be pretty overwhelming. a) Over at the Express Entry – Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) Criteria webpage (can't post...

Hello everyone; I have two questions and I would appreciate it if someone knew the answer. a) I've lived in Greece all my life, but I studied in the UK for approximately a year to get my Master's degree 12 years ago. Do I need to get a police certificate from the UK as well? b) If so, how am I...
