Hello everyone i have posted my question earlier but i didnt get any feedback.. so m trying to put my question in a simple way....Under express entry canadian experience class category is it compulsory to put the lmia approval letter when we get the ITA.. or we just need to put the copy of a work permit ( closed work permit noc B supervisor).... because the copy of a work permit clearly shows that lmia has been approved as it is of supervisor.......do we need to submit both lmia approval letter and work permit or any one of them is OK under express entry? any feedback would be very useful for me.. Thanx once again....

Yeah both have been assessed by wes.
so,
1. bachelors degree for each in level of education
2. Two or more in ECA equivalency for both?

not sure if i can give you +1 or not but still +1 and thanks a lot ;D
If you have two bachelor's degrees and both of them have been assessed and shows in your ECA, you gotta choose "Bachelor's" as equivalency for one and " Two or more degrees.." as equivalency for another.

Could you please post what exactly is mentioned in the "Summary" section of your ECA report?

Hi Guys! Thanks for being so helpful......
I was reading some of your posts and got confused about the CRS.

1. I have 2 years Graduate Research Assistant-ship offer letter from my Supervisor according the CIC requirement (hours/week, salary,fulltime etc) and Full-time graduate student in Canada. [shall I get any CRS point? if so, how much?]
2. I have more than 1 year of Foreign Work Experience (NOC)
3. CLB9
4. ECA Masters level
5. Age: 29+

shall I get any CRS point for my 2year TA/RA work? What will be my total CRS point incase of FSW stream? Thanks

Well, isn't the applicant supposed to choose "Bachelors" for one degree and "Two or more degrees..." for the other?
<a href="http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/questions-answers-by-topic.asp?top=29">CIC's FAQ</a> says:
"For example: For each entry, if you have two Bachelor degrees, or one Bachelor and a two-year college diploma, choose “Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years.”"

Alright! There were instances in the past where applicants used to choose "Bachelors" for one and "Two or more degrees.." for the other. Majority of these applicants had a bachelor's degree and another credential (like a post-graduate diploma). I extrapolated that to this case.

Thanks for pointing it out.

Thank You Istari and Raj. I am glad how collaborative work helps everyone and sets some benchmark answers for people to follow in future. Will do as guided.

Cheers !

HI Raj,
My summary says Dual bachelors (four years).
So level of education should be Bachelors for each degree and Equivalency as two or more for both. Right?
