It does not qualify for FSW as it does not fall under NOC 0, A or B. You would have to switch to another profession

Mzhella:
Good morning House. Please am a silent reader. My question is on NOC. I just started my application, got to a part i was asked if my NOC started with any of the listed but mine didn't. Mine started with 65 but the options i saw are 72, 63, 70 etc. Will this affect my application in anyway? Please advise. Job title is customer care representative.

Not true. There is an option for those who don't live currently in Germany. Check here https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/medical-police/police-certificates/how/germany.html

Good evening House,
Please I need guidance from someone who has lived in Germany and obtained PCC . The Info I have from them states that I must be resident in Germany to obtain the certificate. Please kindly help with the necessary procedure.

Wow!!! Congratulations!!! What a journey! It really took long o but it has ended in praise.

Thanks for going so in-depth.

Smart move you made for the second medicals.

I kid you not, you're a good story teller grin Thank you for the advice and cost breakdown.

You score 10/10

Lol @ladymarshall just saw your mention. So full details below. Forgive me in advance, I am not a good story teller.

Tried calling IRCC a couple of times but I was never put through to an agent. On the 28th of Dec 18, I decided to call them at 8am Toronto time and was successfully put through to an agent who informed me my file was in Accra!!!! shocked shocked shocked. In fact I almost wept! If I had known, I would have kuku prayed against Accra and London. Anyway, I sent Accra an email in early Jan 2019 requesting for an update of my application, got the generic response "your application is in queue for a review". Prayers intensified o.

People constantly come on this thread and ask why people with good and well paying jobs are leaving, my constant thoughts are; the good jobs or money can't save you in this country if push comes to shove. I remember a friend's father died from preventive causes the afternoon of the day I submitted my application which was a compelling factor to submit it that day although I still wanted a day or two to still go over it before submitting, but the news shook me to my core. I want my kids to not have to struggle for the bare necessities of daily living and have access to the basics at least of life when it really matters, God keeping us all. So most times when people leave a job paying in high 6 figures for instance to migrant it is mostly planning for the future, giving kids more opportunities that broadens their chances in life as well as peace of mind for daily living; for instance I have been running on generator for almost 4 weeks as 'transformer don spoil', even when it was good I barely had 6 hours electricity daily, this is not living!

my final thoughts, keep busy while waiting. Don't put your life on hold, keep moving. I have changed jobs and moved cities in the course of this process, I know it is easier said than done for most people. Also be straight forward, keep your application simple. This thread is a goldmine and I tell people that if I direct them to this thread to DIY and they still require my assistance, they will have to pay for such services. This remains one of the most straight forward immigrant processes i have seen so far.

Why do a 1year Tbills for a 6 month visa application? What would the VO think? Of course technically you can liquidate anytime but the VO has to be assured that the Tbills are accessible to you and the funds are solely planned for that purpose, a 1yr Tbills doesn't exactly show that at surface glance. Might create doubts in the mind of the VO.

Your scores were good were it not for W. Do you have money for both? If yes, please remark and rewrite, I pray EOR comes successful so you won't have to stress for another exam. But if you are very patient and in no rush to enter the pool, and if you have not started ECA, remark only, begin ECA, the EOR result would come before ECA, then you can decide if you want to register for another exam, in case it is not successful (but I pray it will be).

There is no disadvantage of remarking, it is a calculated risk that leads to happiness if successful. There is no disadvantage of rewriting, it is another chance to boost your scores.

Stay strong. Don't give up.

bayraheem:
My IELTS Score is L=8.5, Speaking = 8, Reading = 7 while Writing = 6.5, I’m thinking of Requesting for the remark. Is it advisable? Or can I just go ahead to write another exam? Please advise me for both the advantages & disadvantages.

When you provided the first PPR notice and said it was just intro, I was like "if intro is this detailed, how will the main script be"! Now I get what you mean grin

Your script was hilarious. Thank you for your very detailed script. You score 9.5/10

ACCRA, PLS HEAR MY CRY OOOO!!! . huh huh huh
Travel › Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 8 by ladymarshall:
I am sorry about your fix, but don't worry, you will overcome this challenge.

The best combination for IELTS as PA is LWRS: 8777. Your previous results does not have that combination. You have to get that combination for your CRS scores to increase. Your age is good. It is not financially wise to remark your exam. Remark is advisable if you are short of .5 in your writing or speaking scores. You are short of the scores in three modules. Score upgrade in three modules is unlikely

You have to rewrite and this time, target 8777 or higher. Join @wasseynewest ielts class, he gives all round group training in all the modules, you can send him a pm

You can combine NOCs. Read more about NOCs here https://www.nairaland.com/5187408/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled#78386475

Good evening Fam.
Please I'm in a fix right now and need urgent suggestions.

I am 30 and will be 31 by June 23, my husband is 33. I've written IELTS twice already and got exactly the same results as shown below

MOD IELTS (May 11, March 23)
LSRW 7.5, 7.5, 6.0, 6.5

My husband (March 23)
LSRW 8.0, 8.5, 5.5, 7.0

CRS 387

Please what options do I have? I was considering a remark of my last exam and my husband's but I don't know what effect (s) that might have on us.

Also, does all my work experience have to fall under the same NOC code?

I'm desperately depending on your kind suggestions. Thanks

Read page 1 on the basic process to learn about ECA and other steps https://www.nairaland.com/5187408/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled

Regarding IETLS preparation, it depends on your learning style. Some need 1 month, others 2 or more. Read about IELTS preparation on page 1 https://www.nairaland.com/5187408/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled#78386517

Thanks alot. How many weeks will ECA take? Besides, I just want to start preparing for IELTS, can 1 month massive preparation earn me 8777 minimum? Or Should I should make it 2 months?

Do ECA, while waiting for it, do your IELTS

You need at least LSWR: 8777 to get a good CRS score

Hi, I just join this Canada forum and I am a looking forward to my success stories too like those in the Canada winning squad here.

I am very new and I will appreciate if someone can guide me through. I finished NYSC October 2018 and I am looking forward to try this out too. I have learned one or two things here.

Is IELTS the first thing to do? How many months of preparation do I need to be fit for this exam and pass?

I can see some people having 6.5 in just one part and pass every other parts very well but still lament that they failed. Is there a minimum pass mark for each Testhuh

Travel › Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 8 by ladymarshall:
Lmao! But how come you notice my brutality only when I give low scores but never when I give high scores. I give people 9,8, 10, 7 all the time. Look at the scores record, infact higher scores comprise more of the marks. I think selective attention is happening here. Or you know the moniker personally wink

None of the low scores have been undeserving. I try to be as objective as possible. There are also circumstantial situations that necessitate some scores depending on the context of the story and scripts. Marking scripts consistently take so much time and attention to details, it adds nothing personally to me except to encourage people to share their detailed scripts so as to motivate us. When @ralphrulz initiated the script marking, it wasn't because people weren't sharing timelines, it was because those timelines were not detailed enough to inspire and people were getting bored. Our PPR scripts here are unique because they are more detailed and motivating than what you get out there and we need to maintain the standard. Also, I used to complain of people not writing detailed script while scoring but I no longer do, I just award scores since as a moniker pointed out in part 7, we cannot force people to give detailed scripts. But when you do not make effort in giving detailed scripts, be prepared for low scores. You can not provide low quality scripts and ask for high scores, that will be unfair to those who type detailed scripts.

Since I am sensitive to the desire of the majority in group forums like these, if most of you are uncomfortable with my marking style and would prefer another, please indicate. I will humbly step down. I don't respond well to soft threats grin It's nothing personal really, just for the benefit of all.

grin, you just described me grin welcome to my world of speaking. I am a very eloquent speaker but I have been cursed with "you know" and "and so" grin So I understand very personally your struggle! But yet I am very fluent, so do not be worried.

Discourse markers or fillers as they are called are normal as they show you are not a robot or that you crammed a script. They are signs that your brain is actively processing the ideas as you speak. Not all of us have brains that are gifted in quickly processing our thoughts seconds before we utter the first word. Some chronic users of fillers are excellent speakers so do not be worried.

Popular advice is to be well-prepared to limit them. But preparation only makes sense for a rehearsed speech like a job interview or seminar presentation or meeting where you can predict the questions. How prepared can you be for ielts speaking questions which you don't even know beforehand? Even for rehearsed speeches, you can rarely eliminate them. I practiced for all kinds of questions for speaking, but never in my wildest imagination would I think I would be asked about global trade and business sustainability in part 3, it totally threw me off balance for the first few seconds grin

My advice is to be as natural as possible. In fact, forget you are saying those fillers and focus more on making your points and answering the questions. Do not try to eliminate them else you will be over-conscious of them,and in turn, you'll lose your thought process and confidence. Because I am plagued with chronic use of fillers, I tend to speak with a lot of personal stories and examples even for formal occasions. You know why? Because I have noticed that people love stories and very personal experiences because it activates Area 47 of the brain, they want to know what happened, they sympathize with the story, their brain is emotionally connecting it to something they can relate to, this distracts them a bit from language technicalities like fillers. During my speaking exam, I used so many personal examples, experiences and stories to answer the questions. That made me comfortable because it relaxed the mood quite a bit and didn't feel so formal to me so I didn't use those fillers much, except for part 3.

Also, confidence is important. When you confidently speak, people even hardly notice those fillers since confidence, they say, is attractive grin. It is also ok to let your listener know you know. For instance, when I was asked about business sustainability in part 3, I used those fillers so badly initially because I was seriously struggling with the concept and trying to connect with a relevant example, so I paused and told the examiner "Pardon my occasional use of fillers, but I hope you are getting my point. Stay with me, I got this", (and the examiner gave that very quick repeated nod, like yeah yeah, I know, I know, continue speaking) and I continued with the example grin Actually I crammed that apology phrase while practicing to include in my exams in case I lose control, and it was helpful as I got an 8 I didn't think I deserve grin.

I hope the above helps. All the best for you in exams, you will conquer it.

I noticed my speaking is full of "em" and "you know" , are these healthy for IELTS speaking test, if not, how do i eliminate those?
