JesusDWay: From what I understand, Ontario isn't willing to subsidize for their potential migrants as such, all the basic cost need be borne by each individual willing to relocate to the province. |

hartson: Security checks basically like PCC, etc, and sometimes foreign work experience if in doubt. For most fsw outland applicants, BG check in progress status pretty much means you are getting the ppr. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by irondome: 7:34pm On Feb 04, 2016 |
Doggys: Okay, that pretty much leaves you with jesusDway's suggestion if you qualify for the SINP. Otherwise, give OINP a try if your CRS>400 1 Like |

Thank you. I appreciate. Hope my ECA been equivalent to a 4years degree in mechanical engineering does not affect the mechanical engineering technologist option? And when entering the express entry pool,do i go with the same noc2232? JesusDWay: |

Doggys: Your degree and eca shouldn't be a problem. However, your job description on ref letter should closely match the NOC code for ME technologist 1 Like |

BABSFREY: ACCA does not qualify as certificate of qualification. it only applies to[b] skilled trades and not skilled workers. [/b]it simply refers to trades such as plumbing, electricial, technicians and the likes. here is a link of the list of trades that requires a certificate of qualification. http://www.collegeoftrades.ca/wp-content/uploads/Trades-with-C-of-Q-Examinations-ENG-2015-12-01.pdf you can also read more here.... http://www.collegeoftrades.ca/resources/exam-process for more scores on your profile cos of your age, i will suggest u max the score for language proficiency. it could go a long way. not easy but possible. study and practice more. MAY God help us all. |

@Jesusdway,Irondome, Zandora please, what happens when an applicant has a score below the 400 mark? but has met the skilled worker requirements on EE profile? secondly, could this tool for calculating crs score be misleading? i seem to score higher on the tool than on my created profile. im i doing something wrong? http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by SlowlybtSurely: 2:51pm On Feb 06, 2016 |
britiko: What's the score difference? |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by britiko: 4:59pm On Feb 06, 2016 |
SlowlybtSurely: Thanks for ur response. Its about 20 -22 mrks difference |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by zandora: 10:28pm On Feb 06, 2016 |
britiko: The best way is to manually calculate your score yourself using the CIC website. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by britiko: 2:34am On Feb 07, 2016 |
zandora: Ok thanks. But I already created a profile so I got a score on it. Just wondering why the tool is misleading. |

Happy sunday to everyone! Please is there anyone who has had his/her credentials evaluated by WES from Federal Polytechnic Nekede Owerri? My status on WES website has been "awaiting verification from your institution" since november last year. All my efforts to get past this stage has proven abortive. I'm soliciting for help from anyone here who may have a link or contact to the department responsible for responding to such verification in Federal Polytechnic Nekede Owerri. Thanking you guys in advance for your help. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by irondome: 8:58am On Feb 07, 2016 |
britiko: It more likely to be your error, as the CIC crs tool and mycic use the same algorithm for crs calculation. I would suggest recreating your profile again to be double sure you didn't make any mistake. With point difference of 20-22, you may want to keep a close eye on your spousal information. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by britiko: 4:55pm On Feb 07, 2016 |
irondome: Thanks I will do exactly dat. |

dear all, i want to ask if it is advisable to apply for a study permit and express entry through FSWP at the same time period. I happen to be eligible for both programs having meet their minimum requirements but i am afriad that this may work agianst me. responses appreciated. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by irondome: 6:10pm On Feb 07, 2016 |
shodexy: The seemingly danger here is your study visa. FSWC is assessed against fixed criteria; and you get issued the visa once those criteria are met. On the other hand, study permit falls under temporary visa for which you must indicate your commitment to returning home after your program. Unfortunately, having an active FSWC application while applying for study visa clearly shows you do not intend to return. The silver lining here is that --having an EE profile does not translate to a formal visa application. So I think you can create your profile on EE and wait for an ITA while still pursuing a study permit. Caveat: I do NOT know if CIC scans the EE pool as a procedure before issuing any temporary visa. 1 Like |

hello house...ive been here for a while now reading through the posts to help me make my decision btw Canada and Australia.i initially wanted to try the Australian route but the requirement for lawyers is really daunting, so i decided to switch to canada since i dont need to be admitted/licensed as a canadian lawyer(hope im right tho) to be eligible for immigration. please i need someone to help put me through the WES thing, i have created an account on WES but i have a few questions 1. is WES the appropriate body to assess a lawyer's credentials? 2. i chose western union as the payment route but i just noticed i have to pay in dollars which is a far cry from the CAD-NGN amount i initially did, omo i no fit o. Can i change my payment option? also can anyone help me out on the best way to go about this WES payment? i will register for IELTS this week and send my Law school and University transcripts this week too. Any tip will be appreciated ![]() May we all be successful IJN. NB: where's d champagne *in Falz voice* to welcome me ![]() |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by zandora: 2:22am On Feb 08, 2016 |
shodexy: I'll advice you not to try it. To get your student visa you must make your intentions known that you would be going back home after your studies. Now if you create an EE profile for PR CIC will definitely see it and this will jeopardise your chances of successfully obtaining the student visa. You'll just have to pick one route. 1 Like |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by zandora: 2:31am On Feb 08, 2016 |
iphie25: 1) Yes it's WES 2) You can pay in Naira at Western Union but you'll select the option of the beneficiary receiving it in dollars. The Western Union exchange rate wouldn't be the same as the black market exchange rate. Have you tried going to the Western Union website to check what the naira to dollars exchange rate is? 1 Like |

zandora: Thanks Zandora for d prompt reply. I haven't actually and I didn't complete d payment form (the one dt redirects from WES' registration page) so what can I do now? Start a fresh payment process or not? Also pls I'd like to know if any lawyer has been successful with d FSW programme or atleast attempted it. I sstill do not know if its necessary to send my Law school transcripts for evaluation? Anyone with knowledge on this should help me out. Thanks. |

iphie25: Don't bother sending Law school transcripts, it wont fetch you any extra marks, your school transcript is sufficient. Meanwhile, it's your present work that matters more when you are applying, not majorly the course you studied. Even if you are a practising Lawyer, you should find the equivalent of what you do in Canada, its called NOC(National Occupation Classification), that's the work your application will be based on. Your level of qualification, IELTS Grade(you must not score less than 6 in any of the segment but know that you need far more than scoring 6 if you want to stand a good chance. You should aim at scoring the highest which is Band 9 abi it's 10), Age, no of years of work experience, etc, are what your assessment will be based on. Regarding payment for WES, you can look for the option of asking someone over there in Canada or US to pay for you with their credit card while you bargain with them the naira equivalent you'll pay them provided you can get anyone of such(that's for those who needs to use the naira) 2 Likes |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by Nobody: 4:37pm On Feb 08, 2016 |
zandora: Thanks. Only time will tell what I will go for eventually but I will continue to monitor both cases esp the express entry as I can continue to improve my points without officially registering on the CIC website at this time until an appropriate time. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by Nobody: 4:44pm On Feb 08, 2016 |
irondome: Thanks. Apparently, I will have to choose one. Eventually as time goes on, I will go for one. |
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by iphie25(f): 5:08pm On Feb 08, 2016 |
JesusDWay: Thank you so much for that tip. Means I'll only send it to the legal profession admitting abi licensing body when I get there. I still need to ask: Shebi I don't need to go through d hassles of being licensed to practice law in Canada till I get there? Coz that one won't work o....lol. I called my account officer and he said I can pay the way you guys suggested. The earliest date I've gotten for IELTS is 5th of march PH. Well by then WES would hv been done. Means I can only open a profile in llate march. It's well. When you say current employment what if I resigned last year? Although the scope of my work experience is covered under the duties for 4112 lawyers and notaries. 2 Likes |
