You can follow these steps-

Express Entry Application


(Please note that this info does not apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program)


1) Determine your eligibility by doing this CIC quiz http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/ee-start.asp


2) Get your language test(s) done. You must get at least CLB 7 in each of the four sections for the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) or Canadian Experience Class (CEC) streams. But getting CLB 10 gives you maximum points for language.


How does CLB match back to the language tests? That info is here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/language/charts.asp


3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp


4) Determine the code that best applies to you on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/noc.asp


The occupation must be NOC 0, A, or B for FSW or CEC.


5) When you have those in hand you create your express entry profile. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/profile.asp and register for the Job Bank http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/home-eng.do?lang=eng


You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp


You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/pool.asp


Of course, the more points you have the better. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer with a very hard to get Labour Market Impact Assessment http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp


For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.


6) Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following:


a) Have your application fee (C$550 each for principal applicant and spouse) and right of permanent resident fee (C$490 each for principal applicant and spouse) ready

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp


b) Identify how you will provide proof of funds https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/documents/proof-funds.html


c) check out what is required for the police certificates http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/security/police-cert/index.asp


d) find out how long it takes to get a date for the medical exam. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp


e) contact previous and current employers about them providing job letters. You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week. Work experience while you were a full-time student does not count.


f) research cities in the province(s) where you want to live.
Thank this very helpful.

Hi, please I want to know why some applications are sent to AVO. And are there specific NOCs that require interviews?
It used to be that applications are sent to visa offices based on your country of residence, but now I believe it is based on the workload of visa offices (not quite sure). Interview may be called for one of two reasons, quality control or aspects of an application requiring clarification. NOCs do not determine if an interview is required.

Good morning guys, please does anyone know of any other body that organizes the IELTS exam apart from the British Council. And would you advise for me to take it there, if not why? Please this is urgent, as i am about to register and the difference in amount between both of them is 7k. Thanks in advance

Please o, what is this about WAEC and WES? anyone with useful information?
UPDATE: WAEC CONFIRMATION OF RESULT FOR WES

WES needs your WAEC result to be sent to them (a new policy from July 2018), in order to do this you need to go to WAEC office to apply for a Confirmation of result. Here's a list of what you need.

Things you'll need for May/June candidates.

1. 2 passport photographs
2. A copy of your WAEC certificate (with the affixed picture)
3. An affidavit for confirmation of result (obtainable opposite the WAEC office in Yaba for N4,000)
4. N10,000 application/processing fee
5. N10,000 Courier fees (using FedEx or Chase)
Got to the fifth(5th) floor of the WAEC office to process your documents.

Things you'll need for GCE/Private candidates.
1. 2 passport Photographs
2. A copy of your WAEC result (buy the N500 scratch card and downlaod the result from their website. You need to know your candidate number)
3. An affidavit for confirmation of result (obtainable opposite the WAEC office in Yaba for N4,000)
4. An affidavit for attestation of result (obtainable opposite the WAEC office in Yaba for N3,000)
5. N10,000 application/processing fee
6. N10,000 Courier fees (using FedEx or Chase)
Got to the seventh (7th) floor of the WAEC office to process your documents.

Word of Advice: Go in the morning from 9am. WAEC is a Government office similar to a ministry. You go there too early, you're on your own & if you go too late, same same.

Hi tobs,

What additional documents was requested of you on Jul 10? I'm asking cos we happen to be on the same level.

Thanks
Additional documents from CIC? None was requested.
Is your AOR July 10 as well?

The understanding from WES says secondary school certificate e.g WAEC: meaning not only waec, but Neco too.
