PNP programs for Manitoba and Alberta are really easy to get through. I made a mistake coming to Ontario, PNP process here is really cumbersome, found the FSW easier.
Are you coming here on a 2 year study permit?

 

[ghatot201]

Well, you are wrong and misleading.

Friend there are many things you come to know if you got an educational consultant which is not on any website. Sort of 'unwritten rules'. The SPP is fast track process for students with an impeccable academic record. Having 10 backlogs is a definite disadvantage.

I applied under the SPP for sept '11 intake. Visa got rejected because i had backlogs. I completed my degree in 6 years instead of 4 years. The rejection letter did not say the exact reason. Just a general comment that my education and professional qualification do not match my course of study in Canada.
To clear things up i called CIC and was informed that i had applied under the wrong category ie SPP. Sure enough after 3 months I applied again for jan '12 intake, only this time not under SPP. Visa got through and I am in Canada now for the last 14 months.
This is my personal experience. You may have different experiences.
I would re-iterate again. PLEASE DONT APPLY UNDER SPP IF YOU HAVE ANY BACKLOGS IN YOUR EDUCATION.

I am also going for Sep 2013 intake. Don't know which univ to go for. I don't know how much time it would take for PR.

What do you think would be the easiest route for PR :

1) 2 year Masters course in Montreal, Qubec ??

2) 1 Year masters course in Novascotia ??

And what is the difference in applying directly for PR and applying first for PNP n then PR ??

TIA,
Manpreet Singh

1. Most masters programs are eligible for PR. Quebec requires a working knowledge of French though.
2. Nova scotia does not require a masters to be qualified for PNP. A 1 year program either certificate or diploma will do (save money by not doing masters). NS requires that you get a full time job and apply for PNP after 3 months in the same job.

NS is hassle free compared to Quebec.

@ghatot201

On which context you suggested that NS PnP is better as compared to Quebec ??

What i have heard is Quebec has easy immigration rules after you complete your study ( I am talking about only master level program ) provided you know French .

 

[ghatot201]

In NS they speak ENGLISH !!

Why do a 2 year masters in Quebec when you just have to do 1 year diploma for PNP in NS? Considering your final goal is a PR and education is not your priority then NS is better option. Also cheaper option of 1 year study

 

[Manpreet_rieit]

My main goal is to get good education and then a good job. PR thing is there... but I'll give preference to Education.

I have completed my B.Tech in Computers and 3+ years of Work-ex in an IT firm. So why should I go for PG diploma etc. Masters would definitely increase my chances to get a good job and would be a plus point. Agree that it is somewhat costlier... but then why to waste my 1 year and waste some amount of money in pursuing something that wont add anything extra in my resume.

Thatz just my opinion based upon my knowledge that I have gained so far.

 

[mayank_6]

Agree with Manpreet..

@ghatot201

You are right if and only if PR is your aim and French is not a negative thing I suppose.

@Manpreet

IF your intention is only PR do a post grad diploma or a grad certificate program of one year either in NS or Manitoba.
1. NS requires you to have 3 months of post grad work exp with same employer. You then qualify for PNP
2. Manitoba requires you to have 6 months of post grad work exp with same employer. You then qualify for PNP.

In Ontario it is slightly different. For PNP here you need your employer to fill out the approval letter and a pre screen position form. I found the PNP in Ontario pretty cumbersome hence applied for FSW.

 

[mayank_6]

@ghatot201

Confirm one more thing...In NS or Manitoba... Job should be in the same field as your study to qualify for PNP ??? because in Alberta it is the case

 

[S Uddin]
