Hello people.

I actually just stumbled on this thread after activ particiaption on another. Forgive my question, I crave your indulgence:

I have successfully uploaded my application to cic but would like to improve my chances by applying to a province. Does anyone know of any currently open streams (province applications) apart from Manitoba on the EE platform. Im especially interested in Saskatoon bcz I have family there. Althlough its kinda scary to read here that its a bit complicated filling SINP.

Please share information.

Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP)

Alberta does not have any dedicated streams under Express Entry category. There are non- Express Entry streams but processing times for those are comparatively higher. If you wish to immigrate to Alberta using non-Express Entry PNP stream then Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) may be an option for you. There are 3 sub-streams under AINP with different eligibility criteria:

Employer Driven Stream
Strategic Recruitment Stream
Self-Employed Farmer Stream

Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP)

Manitoba has 3 streams under its PNP programs.

There is no “Express Entry only” stream for Manitoba but applicants interested in Manitoba can apply under MPNP for Skilled Workers stream. From the overall inventory of MPNP applicants, Manitoba will decide who gets Nomination under Express Entry and who gets nomination under regular Manitoba Provincial Nomination stream. There isn’t too much clarity provided on their selection process for Express Entry other than the fact that you must be eligible under one of the express entry programs as well i.e FSW, CEC, FSTP.

Also, if applying through MPNP, you must create your Express Entry Profile after you have been instructed to do so by the province.

“I have an active application with the MPNP and would like to use Express Entry. What should I do?

At this stage, only those MPNP applicants directly contacted by the MPNP and advised to do so should submit an Express Entry profile as the MPNP will otherwise not be able to assist you with your Express Entry submission. All applicants should follow the steps outlined in their Letter of Approval from the MPNP when applying for permanent residence.”

“I have not applied to the MPNP, but would like to be nominated by Manitoba through Express Entry. What should I do?

At this time, the MPNP can only assist candidates who have already submitted a full application to the MPNP and only AFTER their application has been assessed by Manitoba.”

There are two pathways to Manitoba under Skilled Workers stream

Skilled Workers in Manitoba

Applications are accepted from qualified temporary foreign workers and international student graduates who are currently working in Manitoba and have been offered a permanent job with their Manitoba employer.

Find details here : http://www.immigratemanitoba.com/mpnp-for-skilled-workers/eligibility/eligibility-swm/

Skilled Workers Overseas

Applications are accepted from qualified skilled workers who can demonstrate a strong connection to the province through family or friends, past education or employment, or by invitation of the MPNP, and be assessed sufficient points for five eligibility factors – age, English proficiency, work experience, education and adaptability.

In addition to demonstrating a strong connection to Manitoba, every candidate who wants to be considered under the Skilled Worker Overseas stream must score at least 60 points based on five factors in order to be eligible. If you do not have a connection to Manitoba, you are not eligible under this stream, regardless of your points total.

Find details on  connection to Manitoba, documents required and Manitoba points system here: http://www.immigratemanitoba.com/mpnp-for-skilled-workers/eligibility/eligibility-swo/

If you meet the eligibility requirements MPNP is a three-step process

STEP 1 : Submit an Expression of Interest : http://www.immigratemanitoba.com/mpnp-for-skilled-workers/expression-of-interest/

EOIs are ranked against others in the pool of submitted EOIs. On a regular basis, the MPNP conducts draws from this pool and invites the highest-scoring candidates to submit full applications. The draws may exclude certain occupations or profiles. Details on exclusions are provided on the Immigratemanitoba.com website at the time of the draw.

http://www.immigratemanitoba.com/2015/04/23/expression-of-interest-frequently-asked-questions/


STEP 2 : The highest-scoring qualified candidates with a connection to Manitoba are invited to submit an MPNP application

Ranking system breakdown here : http://www.immigratemanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/MPNPRankingPoints.pdf

STEP 3 : Following a thorough assessment, the MPNP nominates successful candidates to make a separate application to the Government of Canada for permanent resident visas for you and your family.

I saw this post on another forum which might be of interest to those who want more info about PNP. I have tried to verify most of the info. My apology that the post is very long. Please let me know if the post is not suitable so I can delete it.

Gymme:
@dupyshoo, that is a very comprehensive, complete, and true info from the 'poster'. Thanks. I keep wondering why people focus on Manitoba and Sask (Majorly) when other provinces have their programs.

My major concern, however, is on British Columbia's Express Entry BC – International Graduate, number 4 requirement. The statement "In addition, you must have 2 years work experience directly related to the job that is offered." may not be that exact because this is the stream a friend of mine that we graduated together applied for just last month (and he has not been working for up to 2 years).

The minimum requirement basically is 1 year (equivalent of 30 hours per week) but generally, that info is complete and accurate. Also, the program guide and technical guide of the BC streams (PDF) will give more info as to the minimum points one needs to get an ITA (105 points for some of the streams).

Dansy:
Good morning, everyone, I want to travel to Canada.I need information on the process to travel.I have been to British council, I have made payment for fiftytwo thousand naira. Pls, what is the next process.thanks

Issydebo:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

The above link is self explanatory (I believe). There you'll see how you can achieve the min 67 points. I guess you're ineligible cos your point is below the hurdle rate. Hope you've done ur ielts? If not strive for a minimum of L8, and 7 in SWR.

PS: I feel people asking for help should provide some basic info like age, language scores, qualifications & years of experience etc that way the experts can quickly dissect and analyze ur info and profer a thorough recommendation or suggestions as the case may be (afterall u remain anonymous)

ayobamiakinrind:

Good morning All. I intend retaking my IELTS exam because my last score (8.5/8.5/8.5/6.5) dropped my CRS score by approximately 60 marks my question is;
(1) Since my WES evaluation is ready, can I create my EE profile with my current IELTS score and then update my profile once I retake my IELTS?

walexlo78:
Hi, you can explore EOR i.e a request for remark if your result is still within the timeframe.

humanshado:
I suggest you try Australia. Based on your stats you will be eligible to apply for Australian Skill Independent 189 if you improve your IELTS English score to L8,R8,W8,S8. Alternatively, you can take Pearson Test of English (PTE) and try to get a score of 79+ for LRWS. Check these links for details.

For details on Skilled Independent 189 - https://www.border.gov.au/Busi/Empl/skillselect
For PTE English test - http://pearsonpte.com/

There is an existing discussion forum on Nairaland that you can ask for more clarifications as you go along the process. Click the link below to visit the forum.

Don't stick to Canada alone, Australia has the same advantage as Canada.

Good luck!

Is this all I have to add to my qualifications? After general training IELTS,will I be eligible?

Gymme:
I'm not sure if you can apply as an accountant because you have no work experience directly related to the field of accounting. But as a caterer, you may qualify; please check this link:

Hello,
please I have a question, for this NOC (Caterer), can someone without a degree but with training certificate apply.

Gymme:
Oh yes! As far as you can provide the training certificate in your application. But i think the minimum education required is High school (Secondary school certificate).

Most federal institutions in Nigeria now have an online transcript system,whereby you just make your transcript order online and its sent via courier within a week of request. @ least am sure of OAU's. It costs 19k dhl service charge inclusive.
So simply find out online if your school too has gone digital.All i did was google oau nigeria transcript.
Hope this helps
