It's normal, Tiebreaker rule happened. Read page one to learn about this.

The CRS for the draw was 470 and she's on 475. Will draw's tie-breaker apply in this case? The tie-breaker was April 23, 2025 and her profile was created last year.

Hello, please, is it easy for a Nigerian-trained nurse (only RN) currently resident in Nigeria to get a provincial nomination? How easy is it for Registered nurses to get PPR, please?

Hello everyone, thanks for the job well done on this platform. Please I have a quick question, I created an express entry profile on behalf of my sister, she already evaluated her bachelors degree via Wes, she’s completed a postgraduate certificate program here in Canada few weeks ago, I realized she couldn’t claim point for two or more certificate, she was only able to choose highest level of education for bsc although she got point for completing diploma degree in Canada, but she would have gained massive point for two or more certificate, is it possible for her to claim the two or more certificates?? How can she go about it since she already evaluated her bsc degree. I await your reply thanks

Please I am doctor currently doing my housemanship, do I stand a chance if I apply with one of experience after my housejob.

So after completing your housemanship (internship), once you have one full year of independent practice or equivalent work experience, you’ll meet the minimum requirement.

⚠️ Note: Housemanship (internship) may not always be accepted as valid skilled work experience for immigration purposes since it’s sometimes classified as training, not independent work. IRCC usually counts post-licensure practice

Greetings,

I completed my biometrics last November in Canada and have a valid Canadian visitor visa. My account shows that my biometrics are valid for 10 years.

However, I received an update from IRCC on Saturday afternoon, and when I checked my PR application summary, I noticed that my previous biometrics details (from my visitor visa) are now showing there. But I haven’t received any new BIL for my current PR application.

Has anyone else experienced this? Was your PR application summary updated before receiving the new BIL, or did they use your previous biometrics?

Hello everyone,
I’m a 23-year-old male. I just finished my final exams in Mass Communication a few weeks ago, and I’m looking to relocate to Canada. My goal is to eventually get Permanent Residency (PR) through Express Entry, but I’m very confused because of information overload.

Here’s my current situation:
Degree: Mass Communication (just completed, no work experience yet)
Age: 23
No job experience so far
Interested in Express Entry / PR pathways
Considering learning French, but Alliance Française classes are expensive—so I want to know if it’s really worth it.
I’m not sure if I should first gain work experience, learn new skills, or even get another degree to improve my chances.

My questions are:
What is the best pathway for someone like me (a fresh graduate with no experience)?
Do I need to gain work experience first before applying?
Is learning French a guaranteed way to improve my chances, or should I invest my time and money elsewhere?
Are there specific skills, certifications, or further degrees that would increase my chances for PR or jobs in Canada?
What practical steps should I start taking now?

I’m new here and honestly confused, so I’d really appreciate any guidance or advice.
Thank you.

You need at least 1 year of work experience to be eligible to enter the pool
Getting a masters increases your CRS scores
Learning French increases your CRS score.

Read up page 1 properly

Thank you. Though I did not add these to my personal history so I wonder how they got it

Oladim001:
Lots of people have used housemanship as part of their work experiences and got PR.

Please I would like to ask just for clarification, did you mean to say IRCC asked you for more information on a job you didn't place in your personal history? Or you placed it in your personal history and then they requested more information? Or was it placed in your work history?

Interesting, we learn every day. But the housemanship is added to the remaining 2 years, making it 3 years of foreign work experience, I believe — not just housemanship alone.

Oladim001:
If its only housemanship one has done. That's a year already. Enough to enter the pool.
