Hi, I'm new here. I've been studying the instructional guide for FSW. upon self assessment I did not reach the 67 points.

here are the details:

Education= 20
age= 10
Language= (*about to take IELTS general module= aiming for 16 points)
Work Experience (2 years and ongoing as staff nurse)= 17
Adaptability= 0
Arranged Employment=0

Total: 63

I am capable of providing the needed proof of funds.

I am still eager to submit my application after taking the ielts this year because I read in the website that I can still apply with points less than the 67 passmark, I just need to prove the I can be economically established in Canada and provide documents for my claim. My question is, what specific documents are those?
bless!
I also have a friend, same case as you are in.
The advise from an immigration consultant:

marry a professional (that adds 5 points for adaptability)
or
study french and take the exam (may add up to 6 points or more for language)

sa mga bibili ng tiket...as much as possible avoid hongkong for stop over. some of airport staff are rude to filipinos. my friend's flight to vancouver was 2 hrs delayed so nahuli sya sa nxt flight nya going to winnipeg & her whole family(5members) stayed overnight in vancouver airport....what a hassle! i dunno if it was coincidence...

just a friendly reminder....

May mga factors to be considered.

1. Albert kasi with his family. Mas inuuna yung nag-apply as family.. Ako single
2. Yung skill. Yung wife ni Albert is nasa Healthcare which is one of the in-demand work... Ako sa IT naman which is wala na sa NOC ngayon.
3. Yung city/province, sila Albert sa Alberta while ako sa Vancouver which one of the most populated cities in Canada.


May mga factors na nag-cause din ng delay.. Like sa akin for the last 5 years mali yung birthdate ko which is last Sept ko lang na-update.. Although nakikita nila na 3x na ako nag-apply ng tourist visa, they may not be able to properly trace yung record ko kasi mali nga yung b-day ko to begin with.

Wag ka kabahan.. as long as complete naman yung na-submit mo and abot ka sa requirements during the time na nag-submit ka, no worries.. san ka pala na city if ever?

zshasimi....family status din kmi, civil engr kmi mag-asawa.. and sa calgary, alberta ang target namin kasi nandun ang sister ko na canadian citizen na rin.... next week i will submit the original copy of my ielts and change address na rin cguro pra maupdate ang records ko...bka skaling mapansin na rin....lets hope for the best.... pinakamadugo tlga paghihintay natin d2 s lhat ng mga applicants....
