1. Yes.
2. No, it doesn't.
3. Assuming you are still studying or on a PGWP and your employer has not obtained an approved LMIA, you must show proof of funds.
4. I don't know the answer.

I’m currently on a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) valid until 2026. I have two years of work experience in India as a Dental Assistant (2013-2016) and additional experience from September 2023 to May 2024, as I returned to India for health reasons.

Education:
• MBA from JNTU Hyderabad
• Post-graduate diploma in Digital Marketing (completed in Canada)

Work Experience:
. Dental assistant 2014 -2016& sep 2023 to May 2024.
• Talent Acquisition Specialist in India (2016-2020).

• No Canadian work experience yet

Am I eligible to apply through the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) stream? Is dental assistance as primary NOC is a good option?
Thank you!

Thank you!
Sure. If eligible for FSW with 67 points. Don’t expect an ITA until you have Canadian experience unless fluent in French.

Makes sense but is it ok if I have the 67 points?
May I know your noc?
Do we need to show funds for inland application?
You can submit a profile now if you are eligible. For FSW with no Canadian work experience or LMIA, you show funds for number of people in your family.
