Hey just to know about PR process after GNM Diploma

[Hinduria]

Can anybody tell me step by step process for getting PR on GNM basis. From which organization should i get my ECA, IQAS or NNAS ?

This response is based on the information shared by applicants here in this forum. I am not a professional

Since WES assess GNM diploma as "3 of years hospital studies"/ "Three and one-half years of hospital study and training ", It is recommended to Apply via ICAS, since users in this forum had received an assessment - their GNM as "3 years college diploma" equivalent in Canada
I believe you asked regarding the Three year GNM Diploma

For applying to the PR, It's the EXPRESS ENTRY (EE) system by IRCC. Following are the basic steps to apply via Express Entry
You can find the detailed steps here

1. Find out if you are eligible to apply. click here
2. Get your documents ready
   You need documents, such as language test results (IELTS/CELPIP/TEF CANADA/TCF CANADA), Reference Letters (NOC) and Proof of Funds to show that you’re eligible for Express Entry.
3. Submit your profile / You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here
   Your Express Entry profile is where you give IRCC information about yourself.
   If you’re eligible, IRCC will accept you into our pool of candidates.
   You’ll be ranked in the Express Entry pool using a points-based system. Your score is based on the information in your profile.
   1. Check your score
   2. Submit your profile
   3. You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants. The more points you have the better chances of getting an Invitation. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer. For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.
4. Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following: You will be required to pay the Application Fee Processing fee ($825) and right of permanent residence fee ($500). You will be required to submit the Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) Biometrics and Medical Test and the fees for these documents are separate which the applicant should pay.

Work Experience & National Occupation Code (NOC)
You should determine the NOC for your work experience in order to apply to EE and you can find it here
To claim CRS points for your work experience you need to submit Reference Letters about your work from the Employer
Proof of work experience- To prove each work experience claim and to validate that the applicant meets program requirements
Document requirements

• The personalized document checklist in applicants’ online account prompts the applicant with an upload field for each work experience declared.
• At the completeness check, the processing office determines only whether the required documents are included. The validity or fraudulence of the information is assessed only if and when the application is placed into processing.

The following documents are mandatory for each work experience declared:

• a reference or experience letter from the employer, which
  • should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
  • should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits; and
• if the applicant is self-employed, articles of incorporation or other evidence of business ownership, evidence of self-employment income and documentation from third-party individuals indicating the service provided along with payment details (self-declared main duties or affidavits are not acceptable proof of self-employed work experience).

If the work experience is in Canada, proof may include copies of T4 tax information slips and notices of assessment issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (the time period for these documents should reflect the work experience timeframe [e.g., work experience from 2006 to 2008 requires only documents from those calendar years]).
Individuals who must submit this documentation

• The principal applicant
• Their spouse or common-law partner (if work experience in Canada is claimed)

Nurses Employment in Canada
Any nurse planning to work in Canada must be deemed as qualified to practice as a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed/Registered Practical Nurse (LPN/RPN). To qualify, an applicant must register with either the Canadian Nurses Association (CAN) or the Canadian Council for Practical Nurse Regulators (CCPNR).

In Canada registration requirements are established by individual provinces and territories. To register with the CNA or CCPNR, nurses must first apply to the nursing regulatory body of the province or territory where they wish to work:

Hope this helps

I am not a Nurse so I am not able to answer your query 100% accurate. I came to know about NNAS from you, Thanks. I could gather details and put it down for you here.

There are four ways through which nurses can immigrate to Canada.

• Express Entry Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) - You can use ECA from WES / IQAS / ICAS as per your wish. NNAS isn't mandatory I understand. It's not mandatory that you require an employment offer to get PR via FSW. This is the benefit.
• Quebec Skilled Worker Program
• Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP)
• Immigrate via Work Permit- In this case I believe NNAS is required because your priority is to find an employment as a nurse and later you proceed to Immigrate. The immigration system is FSW or PNP

For immigration via work permit, nurses have to first register with the National Nursing Assessment Service [NNAS]. NNAS helps internationally educated nurses to seek registration as a Registered Nurse (RN), Licensed Practical Nurse [LPN], and Registered Psychiatric Nurse [RPN] to work in Canada. NNAS help to verify and compare your credentials with that of the Canadian education system. It also secures and stores the education and registration credentials to work in Canada.


National Nursing Assessment Service (NNAS)
NNAS offers an easy way for Internationally Educated Nurses (IENs) to submit documents that allow them to register as nurses in Canada.
NNAS has a contract with Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS) International in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Their role is to:

• Receive and store all documents submitted by IENs.
• Ensure they are real.
• Make sure that they meet Canadian standards.
• Certify that each nurse’s file has all of the documents needed before they are sent to the Canadian nursing regulatory bodies.

Who must apply to NNAS?
Any IEN who wishes to work as a nurse in Canada must set up an account with NNAS before submitting an application.

• You are eligible if you:
• Wish to work as a Registered Nurse (RN), Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) or RegisteredPsychiatric Nurse (RPN) in Canada.
• Have received college or university nursing education outside of Canada.
• Have never registered to work as a nurse in Canada before.

There are two exceptions. You do not have to set up an account with NNAS if:

• You have already worked as a nurse in Canada.
• You completed your nursing education at a Canadian school.

Can I apply to the regulatory body directly?
No. In order to work as a nurse in Canada, an IEN must set up an account with NNAS.


The main process of NNAS includes

• Set up an online account with NNAS through the official website and complete the application. You will receive a permanent NNAS ID number. You will require NNAS ID number to view the status and for application later.
• You need to submit two forms of identification (it can be a passport, Birth certificate, other government-issued identification) directly to the NNAS. Remember, the forms should be notarized. No need to send original documents.
• If the documents are written in any other languages other than English and French, then you need to translate the document. Documents should be sent directly to NNAS by the translator.
• After that, you need to submit the educational documents. It should be sent directly from the school or university to NNAS.
• Submit your nursing registration form. It should be sent by nursing licensing authorities where you were ever licensed or registered outside of Canada.
• Then you also need to submit your employment/practice form
• Language Proficiency test
• After evaluation by NNAS, you will receive an advisory report with your evaluation details
• Apply to the nursing regulatory body in Canada of your choice and complete the payment process through NNAS.

Nurses can also complete their credential evaluation services through World Education Services [WES] IQAS or NNAS .
Once you reach Canada, you are required to take the Canadian Registered Nurse Examination (CRNE) to work as a registered nurse in Canada.

Thank you so much for your support this will definitely going to help. Actually i am also not a nurse but my wife is. I am kinda confused about that from which side i should put my EE profile from my side or from my wife which is a nurse. In my scenario i am a Police Constable in Himachal Pradesh India. I have Master of commerce degree From HPU but didn't have any professional experience in the field of commerce. Because i got the Police job in between my studies. I heard that there is also a NOC for Police officer (not commisioned) 4311. And i also have 8 years of experience. I think everybody know the job hours of Indian Police are you know anything about NOC 4311. What should i do put up a EE file from my side or or from my wife's side. What is the possibility of getting PR under NOC 4311.
Hope i am not bothering you.

It'd be beneficial if your wife is the primary applicant. Do a deep research and decide.
I am not a professional. I responded to your post and I guess I didn't provide you with wrong information
Hope everything goes well
Thanks

Yes, you and your wife can both create Express Entry profiles. You may both be invited to apply.
You have to withdraw one when one of you gets ITA.
A lot of couples do this but it's really unnecessary and a waste of time. Whoever among you is younger, better qualified and has scored better in IELTS will have a higher CRS. That person should create his or her profile and the other spouse will be the dependent.
If you both get an ITA you can determine which primary applicant is most likely to be approved for PR and proceed with that application.
