TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Worker Program - Connect Here Part 11 by Lovebeam: 5:16pm On Feb 27
Thank You very much!

amnotapervert:
Sometimes when you hear information from a friend, you have to tell yourself,

“Okay, let me go and verify what I’m hearing to see if it’s actually true.”

Nine times out of ten, it’s either not true or it doesn’t paint the full picture.

Yes, 438 is a low score. However, in healthcare which your sister qualifies for it might still give her a chance.

That said, based on the recent healthcare draws we’ve seen, it likely won’t be easy.

For example, on February 14, 2024, the Healthcare occupations draw had a CRS cut-off of 422.

On October 26, 2023, the Healthcare occupations draw had a cut-off of 431.

So 438 is competitive, but it’s still not very strong, especially looking ahead to 2026/2027 trends.

Maybe her friend didn’t tell her the full picture, or maybe the friend is just being pessimistic.

That said, she should still apply for PR this year in Canada and actively look for ways to increase her CRS score.

At 438 under healthcare, she has a chance but it’s still on the lower side for healthcare draws moving forward.

TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Worker Program - Connect Here Part 11 by Lovebeam: 1:14pm On Feb 24
Thank you very much, please do you think she stands a point with this Crs score?


Not entirely true, she should go ahead and write her IELTS exam and also Evaluate her Credentials.
Go through page 1of this thread for all information regarding the PR process.[/quote]

Hello people
Please, i need your advise.

My sister is a nurse in Nigeria (Bsc nursing).
She has obtained 3 years of work experience and is under 29 years of age.

She's considering putting in for PR this year in Canada and, but an old friend who lives in Canada that she contacted said that Canada has silently stopped inviting offshore applicants and are focusing on PR applicants who are already in Canada.
Please, is this information true?

She has Crs score of 438(If she gets 8 on all band IELTS)

Please advice her.

I hope to hear from you soon

Kind regards.

[quote author=shyboy187 post=138260367]1st congrats for having that mindset and eagerness to give it a go.

Allied health is a very good course option to pursue. OT and Speech therapists are sort after in Australia.

Studying in a regional area will definitely boost your chances of PR.

25M should be fine for tuition for a trimester, medicals, OSHC. You should aim to get scholarship. My brother got scholarship that dropped his tuition from $17K to $12K.

Your dad's friend as a sponsor? While I am not 100% sure, I believe there should be a way around it.

I wish you all the best.

Thank you so very much for your kind response and wishes, I deeply appreciate🙏

If you don't mind me asking, which university did your brother apply to, please?

Good day, everyone
I'm so distressed right now, and any clarity I could get will go a long way.

My profile
Education: Bsc Physiology(Second Class upper)
Age: Currently 25, turning 26 in a few months.
Financial capacity in view: let's say about 25 million naira, I can work for more, God willing.

I want to consider the study pathway to Australia.

I've made a series of research, and I think I'm going insane at this point🥲🥹

1. I want an affordable university where I can study an allied health program(this decision is for long term purpose), good course recommendations will be highly appreciated 🙏
I researched on Occupational Therapy, and speech pathology, and they seem to be a really competitive course.
I'm not sure of the prospects. Psychotherapy has.
2. I don't have families that are well to do for them to stand as my sponsor as I myself do not have 75 million naira(I saw in this thread) in my account to show as proof of funds, but my dad's childhood friend has offered to stand in as my sponsor, but how do I proof relationship?🥲
3. I think I want to study at a regional university to help me claim points during the PR application, which universities can you people please recommend?(I know that this answer is vague, I'm in so much distress🥹)

4. Does anyone think my 25 million naira budget can pay my tuition deposit +OSHC+Visa fee+bio metric+medicals?
I can look around for the travel expenses if my visa gets approved, I pray so.

I don't even know what I'm asking anymore😔

I should note that I tried applying for studies in Europe last year but got refused, its not a rejection as my school deferred my admission until this year September, so the immigration deemed it as incomplete application, closed it temporarily to continue when I apply for this intake, I do not plan on reapplying as I can not provide internship documents as the reason my application was not considered.
There's no visa rejection in my history.

Please, just advise me as your own and direct me 🙏🙏
