Yes i have. I had 70 points from Language 24, Education 21, Experience 13, Age 12

You may need to check other factors such as funds and work experience (make sure you are above the minimum). Destination city should not be in Quebec and also check the validity of ECA and IELTS.

Hi i have workex with 3 different employers from 2009 to 2013. 2009 to 2010 (Company A), 2010 to 2011 (Company B), 2011 to 2012 (Company c) and 2012 to 2013 (Company A). Now as i understand, i need to get reference letter from all these companies regarding my designation, Job responsibilities, salary etc. I have the following questions:
1) as i worked in company A during 2 terms, can it be on a single page. The job description was a bit different and of course the salary and designation was different. So is it OK, if it is in two different pages for better understanding?

Both roles can be mentioned in one letter. There must just be a clear distinction between the two roles.

2) Apart from this reference letter, what else do i need as a proof of employment? i read about salary slips somewhere, but i don't think i have them anymore.

If the reference letter has all the required information nothing else is needed. Payslips are optional.

3) As i understand, the job responsibility should be a close match to my desired NOC, Right?

Correct. Each job can have its own NOC as long as you have at least 1 year of experience in your primary NOC.

Another thing, I am an MBA from NMIMS university, Mumbai, India. WES shows it equivalent to MBA degree. So should it come under MAster's degree or two or more post secondary degrees, while filling out EE profile?

Masters degree.

I meant your scores are not CLB 9 in all language abilities. For example, you need 8 in IELTS listening for it to be CLB 9. You have lower score than 8, so you will receive less than 6 points for listening. Similarly, with other scores. Check IELTS to CLB conversion grid and recalculate.

Other factors are correct. When i simulated ielts for accompanying spouse, i was cleared to be eligible. But, spouse does not intend to write ielts, is there a way around it or can we both go through the eligibility check process?. I will so much appreciate it. Regards

It is not compulsory for the spouse to take the IELTS test. This seems to suggest that without the spouse's IELTS you are below 67.
Please provide all the details you entered, age, education and work experience.

@sandy.y is correct you have clb 8 in listening and writing, and clb 9 in reading and speaking. This gives you 22 points as opposed to 24.

These are the details entered; age 30, education B.Sc, work experience 7 yrs. With 22 points for language, grid score comes to 68, though I used the come to canada tool to check eligibility. Regards

Hi

So I am about to submit my profile through the CIC interface. I am just waiting on my French result to come in. I just have a question. I have had my profile set up for about 20 days and I understand that there is a pool system. If I submit by let's say next week, in which pool will be considered from? From the day the profile was created or when it was submitted?

Also, I keep reading that candidates are invited to apply. I am assuming that happens after you have receive your ITA. Am I understanding right?

 

[Lauraray]

1) Well, to apply without provincial nomination requires even more points.
2) You may be able to find answers here: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/forums/provincial-nomination-program-immigration.6/

Thanks so much @TanakaM.

The ITA (Invitation to Apply) is the invitation for candidates to apply. For your first question, everyone goes into the same pool but, for purposes of tie-breakers, I think the date of time of SUBMISSION (not creation) is what counts, but I'm not absolutely sure on that.

Which PCC is it? The one for the country in which you currently reside? If so and you plan to submit your eAPR (electronic application for permanent residency) before January 2018, then your PCC will be valid and you'll be fine. But if you submit after the PCC reaches the 6-month-old cut-off, yes, you would need to get a new one. If it's for a country you no longer reside in, as long as you haven't been back to the country since July 2017, then the PCC is fine.

Hi. My brother is applying for express entry. His points are 434. My question is what was the point cut off this year ? How many points should he have to have a higher chance of ITA?
