Hi

If anyone can steer me in the right direction, it will be greatly appreciated.
I am a Canadian citizen and helping my sister to apply for Canadian Immigration from abroad.

Her qualification:
Bachelor of Science - 4-Year University degree
Experience - 4-Year as Dialysis Technologist
NOC - 3219, Skill Level B
Age - 31
Total Family size: 3
Adaptability: Canadian Sibling

There is way too much information on different websites, my questions are:
  1. Does she fall under FSW or FST of Express Entry? As she holds university degree but works as technologist which is skill level B.
  2. Can she apply for PNP from abroad? She has never been to Canada? Which provinces accept applicants from abroad for PNP?
  3. Does her spouse needs to appear for IELTS as well? What minimum IELTS score is required for her and her spouse?
  4. Does she need to get Educational Credential Assessment done?

If she will choose anyone from these NOCs then she can apply for SINP . She is A FSW. IELTS compulsory. Min. Requirement 4.5 Bands for SINP OID ( have to wait about 2 years for getting Visa). No WES Compulsory.
SINP EE Min. 6 bands (can get Visa within 1 year) WES Compulsory.
Have to secure 60 points out of 100 (basis of Age, Education, Experience, IELTS score , Adaptibility etc.) in their point assessment grid for both category. If you are living in Sask since 1 year then she will get 20 points for close relative. Then it will be very easy to secure points.
NOC 3211
Occupation
Medical laboratory technologists

NOC 3216
Occupation
Medical sonographers

Only these related NOCs are in SINP occupation demand list.
