I have a question regarding the Post-graduation diploma I completed in Canada.
My program was 3 years long, but because I was a master's from India I got credentials for one year and I completed my course as a fast track course in 16 months which was the remaining program in almost 2 years.
My question is what is the number of year I mention in my profile for the following question Complete/full academic years? 2 years or 3 years? How can i verify this? Will I be eligble for 30 points or 15 ponits?
That was no agreement. The scores went down to 451 once and only once and that was a year and a half ago. Hard to understand how one figures that will ever happen again, especially with immigration becoming more and more popular.

I think the points will drop as 44% of the ITAs went to people with LMIA, which are now worth 550 points less (not really considering the 00XX NOCs as those are very rare)... So if you think that 44% of applicants had +600 points and now will have only +50 we should see a drop. But it's impossible to predict by how much, so let's just wait and see ;D
It's definitely under discussion now. Until recently we were living in other countries travelling. Now we are back in the UK. Put simply, we don't have the cash for itand being 30 and my boyfriend 33, we are very much "out on our own" in terms of family financial aid.
Retaking IELTS soon so hoping for a points boost to 471. Will get another year or work experience in July too although with the increased IELTS score it might not come to that

Ah, so took them Jan 2015. CLB 10 in reading, writing and speaking. Only CLB 8 (IELTS 7.5) in listening as we took the test 5 days after our lmia was denied and a week before we left Canada so I was mess (lucky to get so high in the others tbh). Then I was in 6 months of therapy about it all and in no state to take it again. Then we travelled Asia for 6 months. Now we have been back in the uK long enough to have enough cash to make sure we have the minimum funds and to retake IELTS as often as possible. I also had no idea just how close I was to those extra points until a few months ago! That's how broken i was! So lots of hope now

Seems like even a Queen's English speaker still got messed up by the Listening test. For me, the IELTS listening test is more like a trick test than an actual skill test.

He was talking about medieval glass windows! I had no idea what he was on about so I just guessed
My English boyfriend only got 8.5 in speaking as the interviewer had a VERY strong accent and my boyfriend had to ask him to repeat his questions...so he got marked down!
