hello guys plz help

I was only 5 years old when i came back to my country from Qatar. Do u think i should include PCC from Qatar and be risk free.

or u think it isn't necessary as its logical a 5 years old cannot have a crime record and also cic says generally 18 or older requires a PCC.

Hi All

Do we need minimum point of 6 in each component Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking as minimum Eligibility for Express Entry?

Since my friend wrote an exam and in Reading 7, Writing 5.5, Listening 7, Speaking 6.5...she wrote under British Council.. Her CRS is around 440 , but she is unsure whether she is eligible or not. Her job nature comes under NOC B ...And Possess 3 years of work experience in Canada..Even her work permit job code under the classification NOC B.

Please clarify me, for Canadian Experience Class under NOC B , whether she needs 6 point in each or 5 in each of Reading, Listening, Writing and Speaking as minimum Eligibility.

Regards
Nislava

I completed my bachelors in computer science as a full-time student ,and at the same time i was working part-time as an administrative assistant (20 hours per week) in my university , can i add my part time experience in EE Profile, will it count?

Secondly, i did my bachelors in computer Science, but right now i am working as an HR administrative assistant (Full-time). It is necessary, that your education should compliment your work experience.

Your replies will be appreciated.

Thank you.
Hi,

1) Unfortunately, work experience while you were a full-time student does not count unless it is foreign work experience.
2) No it is not. As long as you work experience is in skill level 0, A or B it qualifies regardless of your education.

All the best

Hi,

For Canadian Experience Class under NOC B the min is clb 5 which is - L5 R4 W5 S5.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/language.asp

So she qualifies.

Dear TanakaM,

Thank you for addressing my query.

Regarding part time work experience, being a full-time student, i have got mixed response that if it is outside Canada then points can be claimed, can you confirm please.

Hi Team,

As per the certificate credential assessment(ECA), should I need to validate both the U.G and P.G Degree or P.G alone is sufficient?

Please clear me on this.

Hi,

For WES we don't. For other documents we don't as well unless it contains information specific to you. For example some PCC's may contain such information.

Hi,

Thanks for noting that. I have modified my response.

The official Ministerial Instructions specify that for Canadian work experience

"(a) a period of employment during which the foreign national was engaged in full-time study is not to be included in calculating a period of work experience;"

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/mi/express-entry.asp


The section that details foreign work experience gives the following information:

"Foreign work experience

25. (1) For the purposes of sections 23 and 24, foreign work experience is work experience that

(a) is acquired by a foreign national outside Canada in one or more occupations listed in Skill Type 0 Management Occupations or Skill Level A or B of the National Occupational Classification matrix;
(b) consists of full-time work experience, or the full-time equivalent for part-time work experience, with one or more employers;
(c) is acquired within the 10-year period preceding the day on which points are assigned to the foreign national under section 23 or subsection 24(1); and
(d) is remunerated by the payment of wages or a commission.

Requirements

(2) In order to be assigned points under section 23 or 24 for their foreign work experience, a foreign national

(a) must specify in their expression of interest the four-digit code in the National Occupational Classification that corresponds to each of the occupations they have engaged in while accumulating their foreign work experience; and
(b) must have performed the actions described in the lead statement for the occupation as set out in the occupational descriptions of the National Occupational Classification, as well as a substantial number of the main duties, including all essential duties, as set out in the National Occupational Classification.

Full-time work

(3) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), full-time work consists of at least 30 hours of work per week.
Work in excess

(4) For the purposes of sections 23 and 24, a period of work experience that exceeds full-time work in one occupation, or simultaneous periods of work experience in more than one full-time occupation, are to be evaluated as a single period of full-time work experience in a single occupation."

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/mi/express-entry.asp


This does not say foreign work experience must be after full-time study. Therefore you can claim points for it.

Excuse the long message, but I thought it would be useful.

All the best.

Please clear me on this.
If you have a Masters degree, getting it assessed on its own will do as you are given points for your highest qualification. However, if you are claiming 2 or more degrees, certificates or diplomas (without a masters) then both must be assessed.

The price for assessing one or multiple degree is the same with WES, therefore, I would advise that you get both your U.G and P.G credentials assessed. That is what I have done.

See this post, it may be of interest to you:

Hi,

1) AOR stands for Acknowledgement of Receipt. This is confirmation of CIC receiving your application. Based on people's current experience shared on this forum, it can come on the same day or within a week. But there is no standard time as some have waited longer.

2) You will not get a request for medicals as they must be done upfront (before you submit).

All the best
