Hi briandg,

Last month I have applied under Express Entry through a consultant and they have informed that overall I got "287" points. What are my chances? (NOC: 2174 with 10+ years IT experience)

Thanks in Advance,
Srikanth

As close to zero as possible. The lowest cutoff so far has been 451. Why are you scoring so low?

Dear Asivad,

I have completed 3 years full time Master of Computer Applications (MCA) from Pune University, India and prior to that I have done 3 years full time Bachelor of Science (BSc - Physics) from Mumbai University, India. My queries are -

1) Does MCA (from Pune University, India) considered to be a Masters in Canada?
It shows "Equivalency in Canada = Master's Degree", when tried getting a degree equivalency through WES tool.

2) Do we need to have first division/class (i.e. >60%) in Master's degree to get it recognized?

Please can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance!
Sansap

If tool shows Master's equivalency then its a positive sign to go ahead get the ECA done. You would need to send the required documents listed as per your country and submit to WES/ICAS to get the official ECA
2) Do we need to have first division/class (i.e. >60%) in Master's degree to get it recognized?
No it does not matter, it has no relevancy for ECA
Please can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance!

Hi:

- Work reference letter:
As I realized, it requires duties/responsibilities in my reference letter. However, the reference letter I got only describe my position as a Software Designer. Is it good enough? And also my manager said that is the company employment letter format, he can't add anything else to it.

- Proof of funds:
I have account with TD. I went to two branches and both of them said they don't provide official letter as the cic required. They don't even want to print bank statement for me since I have online banking. Eventually, I got a profile page with my name, account number and current balance (stamped by branch). I also print six months online bank statements for both saving and chequing account. It is enough?

Hi!
I got my WES report. The Final summary shows CANADIAN Masters degree Equivalency. I have got the report for both my Master's and Bachelor's. In the PR application should I also enter the Bachelor's?
The ECA certificate number will be same for both.

You can choose to provide both or only Masters - not a problem either way.

If I had applied as a Federal Skilled Worker after May 1 2014, received UCI # from CIO and waiting for CIC mail for Medical and Police. I have also applied online for Express Entry System after Jan 1, 2015 and got the Profile number and accepted to the pool. What will happen to 2014 application?

I have similar issue:

My application submitted November 2014 was returned January this year because processing fee could not go through at the point of deduction from bank through card details.
My application was checked because I could see the checklist has been marked for completeness check and a UCI number assigned.

What do I do? PLEASE !

HELLO EVERYONE,

I provided my foreign work exp. reference letter stating that i worked for that company from April 2010 to march 2011 as field sales manager.

But actaully I was hired by that company in June 2009 as part time market research analyst (trainee) and later on moved up as a field sales manager in June 2010.

Basically it was a medium scale enterprise and i was part of the team that was responsible for both sales and research work.
From April 2010 to June 2010 i used to perform both the operations simultaneously.

But the reference letter that i submitted states my sales manager experience and not market research experience.

Recently i realized that i had submitted an employment letter while i applied for my student visa which stated that i was employed by the company as part time market research analyst in June 2009 and had been a regular employee since 2010. It didn't state my role as a field sales manager.

The employer is willing to help me and he is ready to provide an affidavit that states my detailed employment history with the company.

Please advise what should i do??
Should i provide additional document via CSE.??

Dear Friends 4m Forum

I am writing to seek for an advice regarding my recent Express Entry application in specific related to my education section.

I have obtained 2 years of Higher National Diploma in Hospitality from UK College which is recognised for fast track for higher studies. Based on this I have selected a top-up one year programme from University to obtain Bachelor’s degree. As per ECA report that I received the degree is equivalent to 4 years as per Canadian standards.

I need your advice on how to break down the institutions and years of study, and what would be more appropriate to select in education section: BACHELOR’S DEGREE or TWO OR MORE CERTIFICATES (Since I am also holding a two years Post-Secondary Diploma from Canadian College)

Thanks
