Bros they don't use grade to award points. Trust me you can have a better CRS point than someone with first class if you have a better IELTS results than such person. Bottom line, they don't award points based on your grade in the University but based on your Age, English Proficiency, Married Status, Work Experience and Transferability Skills
boss may God bless u, am encouraged, ahave started process on my result evaluation, I plan to use my school statement of result as d collection of cert might delay and my office cant give me more that two days off at lenght hope the statement of result is possible? Thanks.

1. Use a GCkey

2. [b]Your reference letter should be new (not older than 6months)

Is this a guess or for real? Does it apply to previous jobs or only an ongoing job?

Hello House,Can anyone put me through on how to get my remaining documents to WES. The certificate?
Read that they don't receive documents via mail but I saw a Fax notification.Want to know if I can send it via Fax or it has to be by courier?
Or any better option of sending documents from my own end.

Thanks.
U can send by courier, or a cheaper and faster way is to send the soft copy to anyone you know in Canada, and then they print, address and send to WES. Costs 3CAD,and it'll get to WES within in 3-4days.

My people!!!!! PPR!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

Congrats vcole....

Esosas PPR loading too....
I encourage those of us who are young medical professionals to go for it especially now.

I have a reference letter that was written by my supervisor in August but got transferred to a new branch in September. Now, my appointment has been terminated and hr is not giving me the letter in the required format. Can I go ahead to use the first letter with my employment letter,payslips and LOE detailing my constraints.Note, I already completed over 3 years with the first letter

Is it everybody that gets the has the minimum CRS score and above that receives ITA or it is those whose names are drawn from the pool as in Lotto?

Hope it's your older sister that is giving you, not just a "sister?

Good day house, been a silent reader but hope to participate from now. I just got ITA and will be sharing my timelines below.

ECA- Nov. 2016: this was very fast as I submitted scanned copies of transcript and degree certificates, paid international courier fee to have WES send verification letter to my school via courier. Had someone who assisted with the verification in less than 5 days of the school receiving it. Everything took about one month.
IELTS: Jan 7th, collected result Jan 20. LSWR: 8.5, 7.5, 8,8.
EE pool: Created two profile on 21 Jan. I claimed 3 years experience in one and two years in the other as I have only completed two years in my current place of work, however, I have one year experience from a different company.
CRS scores: 474 and 449 respectively.
ITA: received on both profile on 8 Feb 2017. However, I accepted the profile with 449 as it may be difficult getting reference from my former employer.

I've been gathering all documents, and POF is basically the outstanding item. My sister will be transferring the money to me and I will appreciate if anyone can give me a sample gift deed.

Thanks
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by deltadeltadelta: 3:54am On Feb 11, 2017
This is my opinion and it is obvious you did not realise it was a light-hearted way of expressing my opinion! Dnt be too sure that I do not have enough CRS score. I am on my second Msc and I decided to come to Canada as a sight-seeing experience!



dupyshoo:
Immigrating to Canada or anywhere is a personal and tough decision. You need the right mindset to do very well when you relocate to a different country. With this your mindset, it is better you stay wherever you are. Please, try not to discourage others that are giving it their best.

Why did you even click on this thread if you are not interested in travelling to Canada? I won't be surprised if you are discouraging others cos you don't have enough CRS score to get ITA.

With regard to the cold weather, how many people have you heard of that died of cold? How many people have you heard of that died of smoke inhalation cos they had generators on to keep themselves cool while they were asleep? Try to compare the 2.

Personally, I prefer cold weather to hot weather as you can always wear layers of clothing and jacket to feel warm in cold weather. Your skin will even feel fresher and lighter.

Edited...

I can still see you on the thread. Why are you still reading the info on the thread when Canada is very cold? Hehehehe

There really is no need for a response like this. The guy has a B.Sc. in Anatomy and previous work experience.The idea was to use his medical degree as a second degree, but I do not know if he would be able to assess it without a license hence the question. I never mentioned having a degree in Physiotherapy. What I said was Physiology. Sorry for wasting your precious time.
vcole:
I really didn't respond earlier because I felt the question was a bit ridiculous. The basic 101 of fsw is that the minimum requirement is 1 year of work experience. You should know that seeing as you just got PR status smiley You should encourage your friend to read up if he is interested in applying. You can also google and read up about your options as well taking into cognizance your degrees. I don't know anything about physiologists, only pointed you in the direction of physiotherapy since you mentioned you had a degree in it.

See this link below,

Good morning all, I received ITA and I am now filling my 10 years personal history. Please I need clarity on the following:
1. What do we class NYSC as? Educational activity or employment or government? Is it okay to class it as educational activity since I am not claiming points from it for employment? If it's an educational activity, I hope they wouldn't ask me to provide WES evaluation.
2. I did a bit of contract work at the tax office (civil service) which I am not claiming employment points for. Is it okay for me to class this as organisation since I don't know CIC's definition of government work?
3. What is the implication of having a period of unemployment in the history?

Many thanks.

1.NYSC is an employment, you don't have to claim points for all the jobs you've done.
2. No,just put it as another employment.
3.None whatsover, don't leave any gaps even if its 1month put unemployed for that period.

Good luck on the sight seeing. But abeg keep your opinion to yourself. Don't come here badmouthing Ca, entangling the whole process, and probably confusing ppl just starting, when you have no clue of the process.

Thanks for your response. Much appreciated. If I put NYSC and the tax office work as employment, please will I be asked to provide references for both employment? I.e. Will I need to provide references for jobs listed under personal history? Reason i asked is because my NYSC was done with a small company and I don't have any documentation to prove this (we were even paid over the counter...so, no docs at all). For the tax office work, I have my employment letter, resignation letter and a few payslips

Please note that I am not claiming points for both employment.

Hello house.... I am new to this thread but not new to Nairaland. Wonderful work you all are doing here. My profile....

WES evaluation - October 2015 (process lasted about 2 months)
Spouse's WES evaluation - September 2016 (process lasted 1 whole year, extremely enervating, some naija schools are just shit sha)
IELTS Test - Jan 7, 2017 (Results out Jan 20, 2017) Me - LRSW 9,8.5,8,7 (I ran out of time in the writing section, felt so terrible); Spouse - LRSW 8,8.5,9,7.5
Express Entry Profile created - Jan 20, 2017 (no waste of time), CRS 466
ITA Received - Jan 25, 2017

I thought I had everything under control but just realized I need US police certificate because I have exceeded the 6month cumulative threshold since I started visiting the US 7 years ago. I have applied but I understand it will take 12-14 weeks. I am so angry because I never knew this requirement of 'cumulative stay beyond 6 months.' I had my UK police certificate before I even wrote my IELTS and thought I was covered.

Has anyone received PPR with LOE and evidence of application for US police certificate? Secondly, I made a mistake in IELTS TRF number in my EE profile. Can that lead to a rejection with an LOE explaining that it was just a mistake? Thanks!

@Atlantic Immigration Pilot

My people, in anticipation of this program which opens early next month, I would like us to "reason" it together cool

I took of the sentence: "To apply, you need a job offer from a designated employer in an Atlantic province". This suggests that it is going to be an employer-driven program.

Forum members who are based in the following provinces or have useful information should please tell us which occupations are in demand over there: New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island.
