Hello Briandg,

I need help please. I have a BSC in Accounting , plus a professional certificate (ACCA) which is the awarded by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants UK. However there is a Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between ACCA and CGA Canada (Certified General Accountants). I have applied to CGA and will be getting the certificate in a few days time. So my question is this. Does the certificate from CGA qualify for points under the requirement of a "Certificate issued by a Canadian territory"?

Is there anyone in my same situation? I plan to include it because it adds a whooping 50 points to my CRS score.

This is one of the eligibility requirement for a bridging open work permit:
Have valid status on a work permit that is due to expire within 4 months;

Hello flystanny,
I am not in the same situation, however, my opinion is that you will not get the 50 as this is reserved for trades people. One the other hand, I have read on another thread where a forum member wrote that his/her ACCA certification was assessed by WES as being equivalent to a "3 years Canadian Bachelors" (http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/acca-wes-assessed-as-3-years-equivalent-t218092.0.html) If this holds true, and you get the evaluation done and get the same result, then you could possibly earn more points in the following CRS categories:
1. Level of education
2. Skills Transferability Factors -- Education (if you haven't already maxed out the 100 points)

Good luck!!!!

Industrial Pharmacist

Hello,

I am Industrial pharmacist. completed my Master of Pharmaceutical Analysis (M.Pharm) and I have 8 years of experience as Quality Assurance in Pharmaceutical Industries. Can anyone please clarify me the below mentioned points:

1) Whether I need my education assessment required from PEBC?
2) My wife has completed Bachelor of Arts, she is dependent with me. Whether her education assessment is required for getting CRC points for Express entry?

Regards,

If you are applying as a pharmacist (NOC 3131):

if you need a license to practice (for example, providing patient care in a community pharmacy, hospital pharmacy, long term care facility or other practice settings) the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada (PEBC) must do your ECA,

if you are in a position where you do not need a license (organizations such as the pharmaceutical industry and government which require a pharmacy degree because of the education or skill set, but may not require a licence to practice pharmacy), you can have your credentials assed by one of the other designated ECA organizations. Contact the regulatory authority in the province where you plan to live to find out if you need a licence to practice your intended occupation.

2. It is not mandatory to do an ECA for your wife, however, in order to claim CRS points, an ECA Is necessary.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

Hi Briandg and everyone here,

I have four years work experience from back home TA\ RA (4012) then I was promoted after getting the Master's degree to a lecturer (4012) and I have one year experience as lecture. Now I am PhD student in Canada. While filling the profile, I got a question about the primary occupation. I'm wondering which one to write TA\ RA (4012) or lecturer (4011)?
Thanks

briandg, I have a question about creating my EE profile. I am married and have a child. Can I create my profile without including my spouse? The simple reason for doing so is that I get 449 score without including my wife. If I include my wife, my EE score would be decreased to 423. Is it legal for me to submit my application without including my wife even though I am married?
