And coming back to my question. Please, can anyone, who have already applied, say what I should do? What did you do with these blank fields?
Do u have a second citizenship?

If NOT then leaving blank will not harm.

Hi,

I've a small query about SINP 2016 hoping to launch in Jan. I have 4 years graduation degree in finance, however my work experience (10 years +) exactly matches with NOC 2281. Am I eligible to apply for occupation in demand catagory. Or work experience will not count as it doesn't matched with my educational degree.

Will be obliged for a answer.
Thanks

You need minimum CLB 7 in all bands of the test (IELTS L:6 S:6 W:6 R:6). The avg is not important

By the way, how do we know CLB scores for SINP? In CIC we count it for every ability, but in SINP application guide it is just said that you will have 20 points for CLB 8 or higher.
Is it an average from TRF, or CIC provides us with this average scores in CLB after entering IELTS results?

Thanks :)

Where does it says minimum CLB 7 for all section is required if one doesn't need to go through EE sub catagory.

I found this on economy.gov.sk.ca/immigration/occupations-in-demand

"language score of Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) 4. CLB 4 is the minimum; employers and regulatory bodies may require higher language scores."

Thanks.

Minimum score of CLB 4 is required for SINP Occupation in demand category only. For SINP Express Entry CLB 5 is a minimum requirement.

Exactly!
For SINP EE, you need CLB 7 to be in the EE pool. So regardless of what SINP says, you need CLB 7.
Like he said, SINP OID does not require express entry, so if you have CLB 4, you're fine

Hi One_Topsy,

I like to know few more points as you are a hero member,

how to reply on one's post?

What would be the rating if ones age is over 45 but under 46?

Any idea when SINP OID will open in Jan ? Exactly Jan 1 or later?

What would be rating for Ielts ? R 6.5, L 6.5, w 5 & S 7.5 ?

Can I upload all forms earlier but signed on a post date e.g. Jan 1, 2016.

Is bank certificate is also required even if I submit last 3 month bank statement? Because 31 dec is bank holiday and Jan 1 &2 is weekend. When would it be wise to get bank statement? Dec 30 or Jan 3?

Thanks a million for your help.

May you be rewarded immensely.

Yeah, I know how to convert it.
I meant if I want to know whether I have enough (not less than 60) points in order to be able to apply.

For instance: Let's pretend these IELTS scores L: 7, R: 7, W:6, S:6
If I apply for CIC EE, it says that I will get these CLB scores: L:7, R:9, W:7, S:7
So I'll get 16+16+16+29 = 77, and here I know how it is calculated and know exactly what marks for EE I'll get.

How to know what marks I'll get according to this table?
CLB 8 and higher 20
CLB 7 18
CLB 6 16
CLB 5 14

Do I need to calculate my average or take my minimal CLB score per ability?

I hope I din't make you confused with my explanation ;D

Hi One_Topsy,

I like to know few more points as you are a hero member,

how to reply on one's post? Not sure what you mean.

What would be the rating if ones age is over 45 but under 46? Claim points for 45 years

Any idea when SINP OID will open in Jan ? Exactly Jan 1 or later? Not sure, we have to just keep waiting till they announce

What would be rating for Ielts ? R 6.5, L 6.5, w 5 & S 7.5 ? This is CLB 5, because of the score in writing

Can I upload all forms earlier but signed on a post date e.g. Jan 1, 2016. You can upload some that don't require signing, but most have to be signed as you submit. Especially since we don't know when they will reopen. It could be Jan 31!

Is bank certificate is also required even if I submit last 3 month bank statement? Because 31 dec is bank holiday and Jan 1 &2 is weekend. When would it be wise to get bank statement? Dec 30 or Jan 3? You can get the statement on Jan 3. You want it to be as close to submission as possible.

Thanks a million for your help.

May you be rewarded immensely.
