Hi all, (Will try to keep this short as possible)
I would like to migrate to Canada. My sister has been living over there for a while and will soon acquire citizenship.
I am 29 year old , single male from Trinidad and Tobago. I have been working for the last 10 years or so from I.T assistant to I.T administrator , Project Coordinator for an offshore company and then offshore on a semi-sub rig as a Radio Operator.
When I do the online tool it tells me I'm not eligible. I have not done my IELTS as yet ( it's booked for May 24th) but i threw in some random scores of 8 for each section.
I have the maximum amount of money required
However, my education is lacking. My highest official level of education is high school ( I already paid for my high school certificate to get accredited) . I played around with the online tool and no matter what answers i put in, it kept telling me i was not eligible. The only time it said I was eligible was when i put a higher education that high school. I'm guessing this is because you only get five points for high school.
None the less, I am not struggling in Trinidad, nor do I want for anything down here as I am financially stable. However, the state of the country is getting worst as each day passes, hence the reason to migrate.
I have completed Microsoft certifications for Server, windows 7 and i am presently learning Front end web development via treehouse.
My questions are:
1)even though the online tool says I'm not eligible, do I still have a shot if I apply?
2) Is there any way to get more points in education for my Microsoft Certificates?
Thank you in advance for your response
