It will be individual scores. Check this tool to see how IELTS has a great impact on your CRS score

Thank you for your help. Is there any NEW extra points for international students applying under CEC for EE? Or any new updates/ policy change for EE for people already in Canada?

Send your roles and responsibilities along with your designation to noc@workingincanada.gc.ca and they will get back with the most appropriate NOC.

Thanks for being a great help!

I have few more queries

1. My husband has done his graduation through correspondence. Is that considered as Full time study or part time.

2. I did Post graduation diploma in computer applications (1 year) and I've also got the ECA done for it from WES. It shows Canadian Equivalency as Completion of second undergraduate major.
Now, while filling out the Education History form in MyCIC account it asks me to select Level of education shown on ECA report. Which option should I select from below:

a) None or less than secondary high school.
b) Secondary diploma (high school graduation).
c) One year program at a university
d) Two year program at a university
e)Bachelor's degree

I believe that this would be considered part-time study.

Hi Guys,

I need your brilliant help again.

So we are running out of time, our work permits end in 2 days. We are not residents, do not have any family in Canada, no PNP, no job offer. We are not eligible to apply for another work permit so I assume we have to become turists. So my question is how do we do that? apply online? or go to the border? And if we apply online and we wait for the answear, we have an implied status but which one? as a turist or as a worker till the decision is made? Please help, I am desperate

Applying for a tourist visa should be done in your country of origin (or other country of residence outside Canada). This is because Tourist visas are TEMPORARY and they usually require you to return home after the trip. I highly doubt that Canadian authorities will allow you to get a tourist visa while still inside Canada. Since you cannot extend/renew your work permit, if it expires while you are still in Canada, you will be in the country illegally, you will not have "implied worker status".

On this note, I strongly suggest that you leave Canada, on or before the expiry date of your work permit, go to your home country and apply for the tourist visa from there. Once approved, you can return to Canada as a tourist and stay within the allowable limits of the tourist visa you obtained; (while you wait for your PR application to be processed).

Hope this helps

Hi..I have gone through the link but still I was not able to select the appropriate option as I am not clear on what Canadian Equivalency (by WES) as Completion of second undergraduate major means

IELTS result declared today morning and missed CLB 9 by 0.5 marks in writing.
I followed the IDP practise teste for all 4 sections This half mark makes a huge difference from 402 to 460 in CRS
L -9
R- 8
S- 8
W- 6.5

I took exam from IDP , New delhi . Please suggest to re-evaluate or take the exam again from British Council at some other place like Chandigarh /Jaipur/Punjab.

Hi Neeti,

Now a days marking is very tough for IElTS, revaluation wont result in revision as hardly any increase in marks.

You should go for re test and try to give the test at chandigarh or Punjab as number of students is very high there and marking is not that strict.

Best of luck

As you had high marks in LRW, I think you have a good chance if you apply for remarking. I had similar results, took a chance and applied for remarking as I didn't want to undergo the whole process again, and W was remarked to 7 from 6.5. IDP as well. Good luck!
