Hey all,
So I am on PGWP right now, and working (fortunately, my work is ongoing online still as Software Engineer). I am about to complete my 1 year of work next month, and was planning on applying for Express Entry. However, I still need to give IELTS exam and all IELTS center seem to be closed until Covid-19 situation is fixed (which is likely gonna be 18-24 months).
My work-permit expires next year in September. And as far as I know, I cant apply for Express Entry application until I give IELTS. So do I have any options if IELTS dont open up even until next year?
Also, on that note, how do you think will the current situation impact future scores (once applications open up)? I am guessing they will increase since a lot more applicants will be eligible (including ones that are eligible right now but cant apply due to situations such as mine) and there will be lot more competition...
