You need an ECA done by PEBC (which is issued once your document evaluation is complete) if you are claiming points for a professional degree needed to practice in a licensed profession (135 CRS points). It will give you following points:

Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System (with spouse): 126
Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System (without spouse): 135
Federal Skilled Worker Program factor points (if this applies): 23

And no, exam is not required to get an ECA. Just apply for document evaluation and request an ECA.

Hello Friends

I am the principal applicant and i have completed my B.Pharm & M.Pharm in Bangladesh. I am also registered by the Bangladesh Pharmacy Council and has been issued a license.

However i am currently working in a Pharmaceutical company as an Officer, Manufacturing, Science & Technology which seems to be categorized under industrial pharmacist in the NOC:3131 definition in CIC website. My past experiences are also part of Industrial Pharmacy as i worked as Quality Control Officer in one company & Skill Development Executive in another company. Now my questions are as follows:

1. Do i have to do my ECA from PEBC being the principal applicant or i can go with WES for my degrees? (given that i dont intend to work in the community or clinical pharmacy and my current job experience)

2. is getting ECA done from PEBC will i get more points for my degrees compared to completing ECA from WES to qualify under FSW?

3. Do i get more point in CRS as well if ECA done from PEBC?

4. If i Do my ECA from WES will it accepted under the NOC:3131?

5. My wife is also a B.Pharm and M.Pharm from the same university? Will i get points in CRS if i get her ECA from WES?

6. My wife has his brother living in Canada as Citizen, will we get points in CRS?

i will highly appreciate folks if you can guide me on this.

Thank You

Dear fellow pharmacists,

I am a pharmacist who has been working in a pharmaceutical company as an analyst for the pharmaceutical products in R&D department for 6 years now. I am graduated from faculty of Pharmacy with BSc. degree.

I want to know the main steps for immigration to Canada.

Should I take the ILETS exam before applying to the Express Entry? Is it a must that I take an equivalency test to match the requirements of the Canadian pharmacy council before this application?

I know that I requesting too much info, but I am really confused and do not know where to start.

Hi friends,

I am from India. I have Bpharm, MS pharm( pharmacology) degree from india.

I have applied under express entry and currently under process for my PR. I have crs score of 481 with my wife being depepndent and she also has bpharm and mpharm.

If u only have bpharm, do evaluation by pebc so u get maximum points under professional degree. But if you have bpharm and mpharm degree please do evaluation under WES as its faster and easier to communicate than PEBC.

U can use 3131 category being a clinical pharmacist or being a pharmaceutical professional from industry.

Let me know if i can help you guys. I have applied under 4012 category but my degree is Bpharm and MS so let me know if i can help you guys.


Thanks

Hello,

You said you had an intern who did a pharmacy bridging program. Was she able to get a study permit for this?
