How to proceed for PNP?

[goodman36]

Can someone guide me regarding alternatives when one has a low CRS score.

Express Entry Profile already created and submitted. 32 years, Bachelors degree, IELTS 7, NOC 1111, application from outside Canada.

Do we wait for EOI from a province or can we do something proactively?

What resources are available to do something.

Thanks.

With a low score, you need a job offer. That is difficult because you need a positive LMIA where employer can't find a Canadian to do the job. With that NOC, I don't think employers have issues hiring Canadians. So your only option is to look at further education like Masters programs.

Thank you, Naturgrl.

Does a job offer a must for applying for any province's PNP?

Also, the Master's program may take over a year. So, should the express entry profile be deleted in the meantime?

Well a job offer is a must if your CRS score is low and you don’t meet the requirements for PNPs. Some provinces require a job offer. What provinces are you eligible for? And what is your CRS score.Your profile is only good for a year so you don’t need to delete it. Also will a masters give you enough points for an ITA or nomination. You have to calculate if it will make a difference since you are over 30. You can learn French.

Thank you.

Learning French is not a doable option. CRS score is 345.

Open to any Province.

How do I know if I meet the requirement for a PNP for any province?

You need to research each program. Alberta probably a no go right now.
