@40man
Thanks for the response. Tried to PM you already but don't know how to find my way around much on here..can I have you WhatsApp no or email so we can chat real time because I just signed up for WES though no payment has been made which one is IQaS? Lol

I have replied your email. WES also comes recommended though it has been established on this forum that IQAS is faster.

Used to take 10 business days once they have all the required documents but according to what I saw on their website today, it now takes 15 business days.

You can get more information on

Hi guys.

For those who faxed their documents to IQAS for ECA, please how long after you sent it did you get a mail from IQAS acknowledging receipt?

Blizzle:
Pls, did you courier the ECA checklist, copy of your passport data-page and copy of your degree certificate to IQAS?

Because I just realised that they dont support online uploads of the documents.

Kindly also help me with the sequence. Do you have to pay the assessment fee before sending the Transcript request to your Institution? Because there's reference number that has to be included in the transcript request.

-Pay the assessment fee first
-You will receipt acknowlegement mail with ECA Request form(Receipt) for you to sign along with
checklist form and the other form Request of Academic Records
-Print these forms sign the ECA Request form(its a receipt),fill the Checklist courier these with copies of your passport data-page and copy of your degree certificate to IQAS
-Fill the Request of Academic Records form (applicant section) include it along side your transcript request for the institution to fill the other part

l couriered my ECA checklist, ECA Request form,copy of your passport data-page and copy of your degree certificate to IQAS
some people here used fax to send theirs

You don't need to spend money on courier. Just register on hellofax.com and send the scanned copies of your documents to IQAS via the medium. They will acknowledge your application in a few days.

Sequence: Apply online and pay for the ECA request, print and sign the ECA request form, print the "Request for Academic Records" which you will submit at your institution while applying for your transcript.

Exactly how long after you faxed your documents did you get acknowledgement please?

I think we need information on the selection mode that the employers will adopt.

This is important. I also think that it's more like a gentleman agreement where you build relationship with potential employers who will be willing to offer you a position and would not be constrained by LMIA..

Good question!

hi see mail below from the 4 provvinces. they all sent me sonething like this:
Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Project for Employers for Newfoundland and Labrador.

Unfortunately we are unable to match potential international workers with local employers who are successful in receiving a designation. Under this Pilot Project, the Employers will be responsible for recruiting international workers for their businesses. We will however, have discussions with employers to determine if they are interested in reaching out to international workers who have expressed an interest in the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program. If there is an interest , communications on this process will be issued at a later date.

During the interim, you can promote yourself to local employers by applying for employment at the following job bank site for the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Bold step you've taken here by writing to them. My strategy however was to connect with professionals and potential employers on Facebook and Linkedin and build the relationship from there.

I feel personal connections built from this platform can quickly translate to a job offer with a good background in work experience and education.

@Atlantic Immigration Pilot

It would be nice to know the following:

-If existing EE profiles would be used for the application.

-If CRS scores would be a factor in the selection.

-The kind of jobs that are in demand in those provinces. It seems that IT-jobs are more in demand in NB, NS and PEI provinces compared to other professions.

-It also appears that finance-related jobs are not much in demand in the aforementioned provinces.

May the required CRS scores stay low like this till June ending

There is a diploma program in nursing for 2years (approx 4semester) where you qualify as a Registered practical nurse (RPN) in Ontario or licensed practical nurse LPN in other province. After this you can transfer to a university and do 2 more years to become a Registered Nurse (RN)

But there is a fast track nursing program straight to RN (2 years) for people who already have a first degree in York university Toronto

Thanks

I am going through the process, i dont think it is needed for you to reject your ITA.

I submitted my app on Jan 31, sealed union with my wife feb. 10, and i informed ircc thereafter using a valid marriage certificate and pictures if possible. On March 1, i got a request letter to update my spouse passport, medicals, and PCC. and a link was sent to me for which i can pay her application fee, i uploaded all those details on March 3. and i noticed a column with her name was updated on my account yesterday. My medicals got passed today. I am observing the trend sha. I learnt it can be done, and i am exploring the option.

Oh nice!! I am about doing same. I submitted app on March 2nd. I plan to get married by first week of April and wanna know how you informed CIC. Was it by CSE link? I hear that it takes up to a month before they reply that link, I don't know how true.

I guess when you say request letter, you mean you wrote a letter just like LOE to address your marital status right??

And again, how long did it take before they replied you!!

Lastly, did ur wife do all dem medicals and pcc after the wedding or before?

I just wanna be practive with the process and will be glad to hear from you in detail if you can.

Godbless.

hello, everyone, saw this thread this evening, i have no ideal about this express entry program, please i need your advice, some weeks back i saw an advert on instagram about canada looking for infotech specialist, i filled an assement form which they later replied that i was qualify for the express entry program, hmmm, they sent me a bill of $950 for the initial processing and later i will pay another $950, the name of the company is canadim, they are immigration lawyer in canada, i honestly dont know how its been done, i have already applied to 3 universities in canada seeking for masters admission in computer science, pls should i apply with this company to help me in the processing of the express entry program or i should focus on getting my admission and study visa. i have 3 kids and my hubby has a degree in political science and also has a diploma in french.pls i need help thank you

By the time you read this forum and other Canada related forums, you will observe you know more about the process than many of them.

If at all, you wanna use an. Agent, it has to be approved and credible one, because many of them are just hungry fraudulent Indians.

Also another reason you might wanna justify using an agent is if you are working full time on a busy job that earns you so much that you can't afford to spend time online for quality research. If that's not your case, biko don't be lazy ooh, You are welcome to join us here.

All the best!

Bro, let me first inform you that the scheme is made to actually help employers in that region to be able to easily apply PR for their staffs. The reality is that the streams will therefore suit applicants like outlanders with valid job offers, foreign Canadian students on open work permits, or holiday work permits or maybe even those present as visitors in Canada whose services might be needed by certain employers.

And the fact that an LMIA isn't needed other than Job offer makes it advantageous to both the employer and the potential employee.

Lastly, from what I read the employees will have to meet certain requirements to be able to partake in this scheme.

In summary, getting the job offer in those provinces is the KOKO!!

@esosa4real Thank you

But what happens when IQAS or WES intends to verify - which they obviously do?

They will send photocopies of the scanned documents you faxed to them back to your school via mail. Now, speed of delivery is another matter. How fast will it return to them is another factor. And I don't think your school in Nigeria will post to them - the verification - free of charge.

Sequence: Apply online and pay for the ECA request, print and sign the ECA request form, print the "Request for Academic Records" which you will submit at your institution while applying for your transcript.

Why worry yourself do your part and leave IQAS/WES to do their part.Provided you avail them with the all that is required and it is geniune you will have your evaluation result.

Application has begun yet some of these concerns doesn't seem to have been addressed properly. Like 40Man rightly raised above.

Actually performing the real application I think will reveal most of the 'not so clear' requirements to qualify for the scheme.

Hi.

Pls can any one refer an efficient immigration lawyer in any of these provinces that can help one secure a job in these desired work streams needed in this provinces such as IT in new brunswick. its worth using a lawyer even if its for just this phase alone of getting a valid job offer.Looking at the POF requirement for this AIPP the reduction is so much compared to POF requirement in EE. Cashing in on the POF reduction is another major incentive this program offers, using an immigration lawyer that's based there and knows the relative AIPP employers won't be a bad idea rather than going on a wild goose chase while the inlanders are swiftly filling in the 2000 allocated slots.

Thanks, your response is very helpful

The summary is that you will need to secure an offer of employment from a possible employer in any of the Atlantic provinces to be able to apply for this. The major hurdle to applying is the possibility of securing an offer in addition to other less requirement (pof, english, experience etc).
