FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[javoo]

To qualify for the Express Entry pool still you need 67-points as per old criteria. Please read below wordings from the latest update on CIC webpage for EE:-

"These factors are part of a 100-point grid used to assess federal skilled workers. This means you earn points for how well you do in each of the six factors. The total points will show if you qualify for the Express Entry pool. The current pass mark is 67 points."

well its kind of wrong....

Dear Ksa,

Bro, then how can NOV and DEC applicants know the CAP status ?

ANy clues ?

I think it is a difficult question . We should depend on SS

 

[MapleTon]

Great post! +1

It's a pity that I can't contribute more to the forum, but there are several other things going on that take up most of my time nowadays. Still, I do check the forum on a daily basis for a few minutes to keep track. Posts like these make it worthwhile .

Thanks Ash for putting across your thoughts!

Hi Everyone Wish You all a Very Happy 2015 and Beyond!!!

I know the topic of immigration horror stories has been dealt with rather adequately with by many forumites. I however would like to share my views too. I personally am in touch with a lot of people who have migrated to Canada and some other countries like Australia, New Zealand, USA, UK and some even to destinations in EU.
Most of the people I know did face hardships and some even have had to endure extended periods of dissatisfaction but I am very happy to inform the forum that most if not all are now extremely successful and happy people.
Migration is a very personal decision and has nothing to do about your home country unless you are from an extremely unstable and violent states we all know of. It is definitely not a question of Pakistan or India. Pakistan like any other nation on this planet has its own share of problems so does my home country India. But both countries house millions of people who are not only happy but are successful in their chosen fields of endeavor. I must say that like many of my generation I too was brought up on the vitriolic stereotypes but as I grew up I have had the privilege of meeting some of the most warm, gracious and cultured people from Pakistan. I am in fact surprised that people find the similarities between India and Pakistan surprising! With a common origin and lineage, how different could we have become?!!?? So any suggestion that seeking immigration is more justified if you are from Pakistan is a very myopic interpretation of what are essentially personal decisions.
The issue of migration is also not about your standard of education. Suggestions that you may not need to migrate and probably should not do so if you are from Ivy league institutes suffers from the flawed premise that migration is an option only if you are not “good enough” to make it in your home country. A few months ago, some forumite had queried why an IIM forumite was looking to migrate. Again the same assumption was at play there too. My humble opinion of this issue is that is that neither does an Ivy league education guarantee success neither should your education, lvy league or otherwise, be a determinant of where you would like to live and work! I personally have not been to an ivy league and I find such assumptions ridiculous and slightly demeaning.
To all those forumites who find merit in these horror stories and who are in fact dead worried about migrating to Canada, I have a simple message; You are not alone! Most if all of us know that it is going to be difficult! Most of us will be leaving cushy comfortable lives and will voluntarily be taking on a life of uncertainty and risks. But I assure you, it is no more difficult than anyone trying to do anything anywhere! I assure you, getting a good job and setting up a decent career is as difficult in india and I am sure it is so in Pakistan, Philippines and other countries too! There mere fact that we know it is going to be difficult is a huge advantage in our favor! We know what awaits us and we can plan! We can learn from other forumites and we can learn a lot from these horror stories too!
And that ladies and gentlemen is the solution! Learning and Planning! We are all educated professionals and we cannot be so helpless!
Let us take the modulus of each story we read, positive or negative. Let us then glean valuable workable intel from these stories and prepare a plan for ourselves. Let us be like the explorers of the past and go out into a journey, which will be a journey of self discovery as much as a journey to a new country.
I wish you all the best! Godspeed!

P.S: I look forward to flying kites on the rooftops of Lahore at least once in my life!

Sorry to bore you guys with such verbosity!

@ canadamylove

I just gave Canadian Employer's perspective..............

Dear try to understand the most important thing, what ever suggestions other give are general and -ive/+ive opinion u get are specific to personal experience.

Now u r in IT field, which remains same all over the globe........ so in most cases u guys are not required to have some Canadian course if u have expertise in the language/program being commonly used in Canada. U may easily get job at same position or one step below.

I am in finance and have CFA (an US based exam readily acceptable in Canada) but the mkts here are different, so i may have to do an apprenticeship to know abt the mkt before getting reasonable job.

Lets take example of an engineer, the basics remains the same but technology may be different for which he may have to do some diploma.

The other extreme are Doctors, their education although accepted for immigration is not easily accepted for profession (unless from US) and they have to take few exams to enter the mkt.

Net net, "the additional required" depends upon everyone's personal circumstances, experience and knowledge. The given advise are general i.e. "fit all scenario" .... its up to u to pick them wisely. The 98% figure is again from "vocal group", which mainly comprises of ppl with -ive experiences, others r too busy in their life to share their good experiences.

ECA is just initial basic filter, mainly to

1. Authenticate the educational documents as initially many ppl committed fraud or has degrees from university of no standing, even in their own country i.e., mainly "purchasable degrees" no offense meant, even US & Canada have this type of educational institutions.

2. To check applicant's commitment level, otherwise any1 can fill few forms and send the app across, if he has valid IELTS. You might have some bad experience with ECA, otherwise for most of us it was smooth (required few hours to collect the docs, get them attested by the university and then simply wait for few weeks. Hardly 7-8 work hours required.

Shah i completely agree with point.. very well said..

Seems best for the unmarried applicants

 

[royalist2003]

Whats really happened to the capped details. New express entry replace that particular page.

 

[zamanahmed]

Is there anyone from NOC 4011 applied on or before 29th September and yet to receive PER? ???
Thanks

 

[ahm]

I think you should inform your VO about it. Don't worry. If whatever you written in your reference letter is true, you will go through. The problem is it could get delay only. In anyway, if your orgainsation is not a reputable one, VO generally check it.

thanks dear seniors, i am really glade you are releasing my stress. i was much worried about my experience points because i worked in a reputable organization from 2001 to 2009 where i stared my career as a assistant accountant then till 2009 i promoted subsequently as a manager purchase. then i joined in a not much reputable organization which was close its operation in july 2013 due to loses. After that i am working as office manager in a private firm where my senior manager will confirm my experience letter, this is all my experience. plz suggest

thanks
