@zandora and Jesusdway, Thank you for your huge support. However I'd like to ask how long the required funds need to be sitting in my account. my balance has averaged #1.95m since November but I have an urgent need to pull out #500k. my crs manually worked out to be about 450 and that's why I've been stalling on my application. if I pull out the #500k I'd be left with #1.45m in my account but i am very sure that I can get the balance back to over #2m by the end of next month. so how long do you think I should wait before I apply. I don't want to apply now and stand the risk of not having the required funds.

Hello guys, i need to thank Zandora and others for the wonderful work you are doing here. May God bless you all.
please , i need your pieces of advice. I'm a COREN registered Electrical Engineer and an assistant chief engineer(level 13) with one of Federal Government Agencies. I'm also a Chartered Accountant. i have been practising the two pari passu for years.i want to process the permanent residence to Canada. These are my questions;
1.can i put the two professions in my application? like assessing the two thru WES
2. My first degree is in electrical engineering. can i use only my ACA for the processing? i have Audit firm that can give me the employment letter
3.Which of the two professions do i have more chance?

Thanks and God bless

Good afternoon,

@JesusDWay, Zandora, Irondome, well done with the great job you're doing on this thread. I'd like to clarify the steps for the WES evaluation. Do I need to ask my Uni to send both certificate and transcript or is it only the transcript that my Uni needs to send for evaluation?

Also, is Education credential assessment the that costs 200cdn the correct one to apply for?

Many thanks.

Hello Chartered Engineer,
Your COREN is a certification which is not assessed towards applying for this program. Secondly, the Express Entry is a skill program, so profession really does not count. What is important is what you have been doing on your job and relate that to a NOC with the same job responsibilities.

The Good news however, is that you will assess your first degree and ACA with WES, but your work experience will be that of an assistance chief engineer, i assume as a level 13 officer, you must have spent more than 3 years in that field.

shodexy:



Forget about the ACA because WES does not assess professional qualifications. They only assess formal academic training like your secondary and university education.

hello @Garykasparov and other people in the house,

If I get your statement in one of your replies to members questions well, you mean if for example your required POF is N2m, that N2m must have been in your account since six months ago before ITA? I think this only applies to some PNPs and not to the EE pool. Please clarify if otherwise.


Regards

Egbon Shodexy,

@deesmom, sorry I don't have an answer to your question. I need your help. I can see you had high scores in your IELTS. Please which material did you use and any valuable tips, especially in the writing?

Mine is scheduled for next month and I'm so confused.I really need high bands and I don't even know where to start.

deesmom:
Good people, Good evening , hope you all had a pleasant day . I need advise fromeveryone o.
I finally received Notification of Interest from Ontario through my CIC. I am seriously considering accepting as my CRS is 433 and that is after assessing Husby's BSC . Should I pursue the Ontario PNP .
I also want to know how the POF works . I have bits and pieces of the total sum in my children's and husband account . If I move all to my account now before printing the statement of account and have same sit in the account throughout the assessment period , would it be a red flag ?
Gurus , please save a sister ...

irondome:


Have some faith mate; CIC would most likely try to clear their old fsw backlogs before March. I opine you would get your PPR before then. To address your direct question, PNPs are usually not the quickest route because you could spend between 2-8 months getting province nomination and another 1-6 months for the actual visa processing.

hello please I submitted mycic profile but was surprised to receive a message that am ineligible, please what next cos I want to apply for SINP EE? thanks

Garykasparov:


Hello Deesmom.
Congratulations on your Ontario nomination.
It is easy to tell you to accept the nomination; however, i belong to the school of thought to "think of the end before you begin". you have alot to consider before accepting that nomination. There is a $1500 non-refundable fee, do you have ties/affiliation in ontario? To top all these, your PoF is yet to meet the requirement. Is the process not "dead on arrival"?

if you are yet to exhaust the chances to increase your score, i beg you to wait. but if you have no other option:
1. Decline this nomination.
2. Prepare your funds, when it meets their requirement;
3. Delete your existing profile
4. Re-enter the pool

you will get a nomination almost immediately, then accept.

Caveat though, this is what is obtainable at the moment. Any changes can occur anytime

khasm:
Dear all, I opened another profile and I'm eligible, but the issue I'm havin is,i do not av a job seeker validation code in the message sent to me hence I could not proceed with job bank.
