Yes IQAS still evaluates law degrees but not as masters biko. It's as first prof degree which is equal to a first prof degree master's degree. Yes you need ur transcripts with all d forms. Very important.

Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by einsteino(m): 7:05pm On Jun 14, 2016
Please i would like to apply for canada express entry program but my fear is, if I should apply for a study visa later, perhaps if my EE application isnt successful, could my initial EE application be used as grounds that I am not likely to leave canada at the end of my studies? Thus ruining my chances of ever securing study visa?

Good day, please i have a question concerning pof. i am the PA but my POF will be by presenting a fixed deposit certificate in my husband's name. Pls can i use only the fixed deposit certificate as i do not want to include his bank statement as the POF was a huge sum lodged singly in to his account by a friend.
Please will i be ok by this as i have started becoming worried concerning this.

My advice will be that you refix the money in both of your names, go to any of the banks, you dont even need to have an existing account and refix it.

Yes, only FD certificate can suffix, and a bank statement may not be requested if there isnt a doubt on the reasonableness of the value vis-a-vis your source(s) of income

There isnt any problem if you have a huge sum lodged in the account as long as you can prove it is from a source deemed acceptable by IRCC

Yes, reasonably it will impede your chances to secure a study visa. However, you have to be clever about this. Note that not until you have been invited from the EE pool, and you apply, is it deemed to impede your study visa chances, existing in the pool does not.

Lastly, if you have a good score enter the pool and pursue your PR, then further your studies afterwards with cheaper tuition, so it is a win-win situation. Be optimistic your EE application will be successful which means you wouldn't need to apply for study visa.

Hello,
Did anyone ever accuse you of being a novice?
Kindly go to the first page of this thread for guildlines, you can only evaluate your eligibility if your have a minimum of 1 year work experience and have sat the IELTS exam further to being a graduate.

Good morning guys, am new here, av gained a lot reading this thread, i follow the canada study thread, am currently waitn for my trv, but my question is i want to apply for pr for my mum, she has visited canada twice, she is a nurse with bsc, masters and professional degrees nd over 25yrs experience, am confused as to which way to use, i see pple talkn about express entry or provincial nominations, can sum1 plsss explain which route to use for her.

Also if sum1 already has trv for study permit, can he stil apply for express entry if he is eligible, whether he is in nigeria or canada.

Thank you for your responses, God bless you

Your questions are quite technical, and may require seniors' input. However, per your mum, i believe she can apply, though her score will be adversely affected by her age, so a provincial nomination may be her route particularly if her visits to canada were to these province.

Kindly sought a second opinion on your other question. However, i know you can apply when you start studying in canada if you have existing work experience, but applying for PR before travelling can complicate your landing procedures.

Biobobs:



For your MCC evaluation of credentials,you would need to have sent a copy of your medical certificate certified by a notary public. Mcc would then verify the certificate from your school.
But no worries,I think you should just wait for the reply from MCC after reviewal of the docs u submitted. They would tell u if u still need to resubmit d certificate via post or email .


Thanks a lot

I will suggest that you scan your degree certificate to your school and request that it is sent alongside your transcript. As for your school, try and locate a contact person so as to expedite the process for you.

Thank you!

Pls gurus in the house I need an explanation on this;

What advantage EE has over PNP? I mean applying directly through EE or through PNP, which is a better option? I seem not to understand.
What are the minimum CLB for each province?

With EE, as long as you meet the CRS cut-off point, you can get Invitation To Apply (ITA) for Permanent Residence (PR). That means you must have created an EE profile.

With PNP, YOU STILL NEED AN EE PROFILE but once you get nominated by a province, you just upload your certificate of nomination on your EE profile giving you an additional 600 CRS point and automatically will get you an ITA in the the next round of invitations.

CIC now channels all things immigration to canada through the Express Entry system.

As for advantage: PNP guarantees you will get ITA because of the additional CRS point but EE only you must get the points solely based on all the factors for your EE profile. Also, with PNP, you must be prepared to spend a minimum of certain number of year(s) in the particular province that nominated you before you can migrate to any other province. Please google this for each provinces.

The gurus in the house can throw more light on this.

God Speed.

You are trying to compare 2 different things.

Permanent Residence application is mainly through Express Entry nowadays except for maybe Quebec.

Before you can apply for PR, you will need to submit your profile in the pool and you will be awarded a CRS score which is highly dependent on factors such as age, academic qualification, no of years of experience, marital status, IELTS score, PNP etc.

The higher your score (480 and above), the higher the probability of getting an Invitation to Apply (ITA). You will need to get this ITA before you can put in your application for PR.

Where PNP comes in is that it increases your CRS score and assures you of ITA and maybe a faster processing of your PR application.

Nice writeup here. In the light of ur narrative up there, is it advisable for someone that has less than 400 points to wait until he his able to get 400 or more points before registering in the EE pool?

Please which of the fees?

CIC fees for PR application & RPRF abi?

As per exchange rate you have no control over it as it's determine by a lot of factors right now in Nigeria.

But the restriction thing, no Nigerian Naira card can work. I recently paid CAD$2530 CIC fees.

Two options: 1. Get a Dollar denominated Mastercard/Visa from GTB et all and buy $ from parallel mkt to fund it.
2. If you have a brother in Canada or USA use their card to pay then reimburse their Naira acct if they still maintain one.

I used the first option, the USD amount came to $2060.

Hope this helps?

Cheers
