Any idea pls?

Ishoba:
A friend already in Canada(studying) got expression of interest from a province but the employer and job title the agent filled during visa application is different from the one she filled in the pool.
I suggested that she add the 2 employers, share the hours of work equally and explained she was doing 2 jobs since they correlate somehow.

Pls, Whats are thought guys?

makhu007:



Send them an email. They would book the apppoinment for you. The email is on their website.

Thank you. I eventually got through to them. It's sorted now.

Please can someone add me to any Tech pathway Pr group

Congratulations to your sister!
I am still in the journey myself. But I have a question regarding the reference letter and cash cert. Did she indicate in the reference letter that she was paid in cash? Or she just indicated that she was paid a certain amount?. Thanks in anticipation

No, the letter didn’t indicate that it was cash. She ed only the ref letter to keep it simple and not invite unnecessary scrutiny. However, she had her employer sign the cash salary certificate and monthly payslips and kept them in the event of an ADR.

Dauphine:
You are supposed to evaluate the degree that would give you the highest score in your case, masters. Evaluating your bachelor’s degree is not necessary. I don’t know how it works if you evaluate your bachelors and try to evaluate your masters down the line.

Thanks so much Dauphine. I had to call them directly and they’ve agreed to hold on to my evaluation till I submit my MSc in future.
The lady said they’re gonna evaluate both my BSc and MSc since they have almost completed the BSc evaluation.

I do not know what that results to in the long run as everyone evaluates the highest degree. Make dem no come give me 2 or more certificates for my MSc o (na Tinubu go settle am 😂).

Should I call back to cancel the BSc and still hold till I present my MSc later on ?

Everybody please 🙏

A couple things..

1. Yes, applying with a spouse can make or break your CRS. Depending on your profile, adding your spouse can increase your CRS, decrease it, or leave your CRS unaffected negatively or positively.

2. While your husband has only 1 year of foreign work experience, you might want to consider him being the principal applicant because his NOC is in demand. I believe the last Ontario tech draw was 471-480. While the lowest STEM cutoff for category based draw so far was 481. With the info you provided, if your husband maxes out IELTS or another English exam equivalent, is less than 30yo, y’all’s CRS with him as the principal applicant will be around 458 (recalculate this yourself to confirm). Maybe there might be a PNP tech draw within his CRS range in the near future so it’s good for him to get in the pool quick and also Express Interest in provinces where you need to take action first to be invited for PNP so y’all don’t miss an opportunity.

3. I believe his NOC is more in demand than yours. If he hasn’t taken IELTS and done an ECA, have him do this. Create separate profiles with both of you as the main applicant and each other’s dependents on the two s, and who ever gets ITA or PNP first should proceed as the main applicant and you can withdraw the other person’s profile.

Hi House,

Please i am trying to enter into the Express entry pool with a profile with my Husband
I have two certificate which is my Bsc and my AAT serving as a 2 year diploma certificate
My Husband has a master's degree from UK
My working experience is more than 3 year
But for my husband, it does not give the option to pick the foreign skilled worker experience, so i cant put in any work experience for him but he has just 1 year before he went for his masters
He is a software developer and i am an auditor
I kept in all of this details and the CRS score came to a total of 477
I don't know if that is normal or something is wrong
I thought both i and my husband applying will give us a better CSR score
I all maxed out all the IELTS score

Do you think i have missed out something while inputting our details on the CRS
or that's just the score we have

What else can be done to improve the score at least to get to 500

Its never too late I believe. French and Category based draws can be a rescuer.
For French, I'd advise a tutor(private if possible) for the structure and maybe speed.
Else an institute. IEF and Alliance Française are good. Do check the TCF/TEF thread.

French is a long term game, with so many variables, so giving an exact figure is dicey. It's pricey especially now but not for what it's worth.
The exam price has also been increased to #700k.

Thank you so much for this reply 👏

Thank you for the detailed explanation, my husband is above 30 years and i am 27, that's why i thought it would be better if i am the main applicant. I have just done the CRS now, if my husband is the main applicant with IELST maxed out, the score is 443
and if i am the main applicant the score is still 477. And this is will both of us maxing out IELST.
Our exam is next month so we can enter the pool and hope for a PNP nomination.
I have done my WES already, so it's just left with my husband's WES.

Hello House,

Please see my timeline

Eligibility: ed
Info Sharing: Completed
Security and Criminality: Not started
PVO/SVO: Ottawa/Sydney

However on GCKey, it says “Your application is in progress, we will send you a message when we start your background check”

It has been this way for about 3weeks.. is this IP1?
Has anyone had a similar status..how long did it take to change

Thank you.

what I did was to first evaluate my BSc which was what I had then, and when I had my MSc I also ed. By holding on the evaluation for BSc, you cant even get the points for that. If your points are high enough, I'd suggest you evaluate the BSc still (just maybe it'll be enough to qualify you for the next draw) and when the MSc is ready, evaluate also. Your scores will be updated when you update your profile. It also depends on availability of funds sha.

Hi guys, so I’m asking these questions on behalf of my brother. He is traditionally married with two kids and wants to start the PR process. Does he have to do the court wedding too? Or a traditional wedding will suffice?
Also he is a pharmacist. I saw that a pharmacist does not qualify for the healthcare category…BUT pharmacist technicians or assistants do. He worked as one for two years before he was able to his license in Nigeria (backstory, his pharmacy degree was from UK but moved back to Nigeria and worked as a pharmacy assistant for two years before he eventually got his license to practice in Nigeria) . So can he claim that even tho he is a pharmacist right now? Thank you

Wishing you the very best. You can try Institute Du Francais

Thanks for your advise. My BSc alone will not take me this far because I don old already (very late 30’s).

Hello House, i started my journey with the motivation of this thread:

I took IELTS in February 2024 and i have 8.5 band score.

I will be 30 years old by October.

I have a BSc from University of Lagos (I already paid WES for evaluation and I'm waiting on Unilag to send my transcript).
Post graduate diploma course in Lasu (Currently in the final semester - transcript should be ready by December).
I also concluded the ICSAN program since December and graduation will be by June (Transcript is available).

I have 2 small ed Limited companies i run; I'm also a manager at a firm where i work.

I need help with the following:
1. Should i send my ICSAN transcript to WES in addition to the Bsc since it's a postgraduate program or i should just continue with the Bsc, or just wait for LASU's postgraduate diploma certificate.

2. In the work experience field, do i need to include the companies i founded myself? Also do i need to include companies i interned in the past or i should just limit to my current place of work and maybe one earlier.

3. The provincial jobs, how best do i get one? It's confusing.

I'm single, no relative in canada. CRS score is 473. what are my chances?

Please assist, i don't want to waste my IELTS score. I wish to secure this!

Hello house, Thanks to everyone commenting and sharing knowledge on this thread. Please, are there any Scrum Masters here? I'm a bit confused about what the NOC code for Scrum Masters should be.

Also, please, is there a thread or link for those moving to Canada from the UK? Kindly Share, Thank you.

Hi,

For PR purpose, he will need a marriage certificate from the registry.

For category based healthcare pathway, he only needs at least 6 months as Pharmacy technician/assistant the other 2years 6 months or more can be as a pharmacist/pharmacy assistant.
So he can use the 2 years pharmacy technician /assistant experience he has in addition to 1 or 2 years as pharmacist. He should be fine.

Good Afternoon Gurus in the House

I want to evaluate my HND transcript with WES, My school is asking if they'll have to send the hard copy to wes or only the soft copy

The hard copy costs extra charges while the soft copy is free. which one should i tell them to do?

Does Wes need hard copy for evaluation?

I think a good question will be how did they send for other students in the past? Most schools already have a working system.

To send official electronic transcript(not student copy) to WES, I think the school needs to create an with WES and the email has to originate from registrar’s/Exams&records dept(e.g [email protected] NOT [email protected])

You can reach out to WES to be really sure.

My school sent a soft copy to WES and afterwards I received my WES assessment. Soft copy is enough.

Hi,

Who is traveling to Winnipeg with Air on the 22nd of May here?

Thanks

Hi please I’ll like to get it from Ottawa. How do I go about it?

tshtsh:

You can get it at the nigerian high commission in Ottawa. Application is by post but will cost about $100. Kindly let me know if you get any lead on how to get it in Nigeria. I have been procrastinating getting it. May be cheaper to get in Nigeria than here
