Hi,
From all the information I've gathered so far, I should have a relatively straightforward EE application but am trying to determine if it would still be beneficial to hire a consultant because I'm slightly concerned with my CRS (estimated at 441) given recent draws. I have not yet created an EE profile as I'm waiting in results of my ECA and language test.
I have no criminal record, no health issues, and am 28 years old.
NOC Code 0711 / Type 0
Bachelors degree in construction engineering with 6 years of relevant work experience.
I do not have any family in canada or french language skills.
I'm reaching out to companies to get a job offer with a LMIA as my field will qualify for PNP in most provinces but so far do not have any offers in hand.
I've spoken with a few immigration consultants who make a big point of saying they will make it happen correctly and more quickly, although between the amazing people and information on this forum, I'm not sure if it's really necessary. I've also heard some consultants won't put in much effort once they have received your retainer money and can actually drag the process out unnecessarily.
Any thoughts, information, experience relative to consultants, or my application plan as a whole would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
