Apply directly for EE or Apply for Master then EE ?

[JoyceP]

Hi everyone,

As per the subject, I am not sure which way I should go :'(

Some background about me: I have a 4-year bachelor degree and 3 years of work experience (2 years in 1 NOC and 1 year in another NOC, same company, different countries). I already had my French test B2 and TOEIC 990, but I haven't taken TEF and IELTS yet. With the new improvements from June, I might get additional points if I focus on TEF. I have sent my documents to WES and requested transcripts from school.

For now, I prefer EE because I can save money and time. On the contrary, getting a degree in Canada will increase my score but will take time to prepare for the program application, visa and such, perhaps at least 1 year, and to complete the degree. I'm turning 26 end of this year.

1/ Should I apply for EE directly or apply for a Master degree then apply for EE, FSW ?
2/ Do they take into account our background, where we study and work, which languages we can talk ?

Any opinions would be much appreciated !!!!!

1 - Depending on your score you may not need to have a masters to get an ITA. Use a CRS tool calculator and compare it with the most recent draws and see if your score is competitive.

2 - No, only English and French hold importance for immigration purposes.
