Hello,
No, you must wait for your electronic report so that you have the reference date and number. Creating a profile before you have both IELTS and ECA is misrepresentation.
All the best
FSW eligibility is calculated using
http://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/eapp/eapp.do
U need to score min 67 out of 100...see if you come out as eligible with your said 5 years work experience.
If yes, then comes the CRS calculation which ranks candidates...in this,points for experience gained outside Canada is given maximum for 3 years...it doesn't matter if you have 3 years or 10 years,you get the same point...however you are required to provide supporting documentation for the work experience you list in work history...so why should you take the headache for no points...
---
you leave the work experience beyond 3 years / 5 years (see with the first link ur eligibility) and you can show them in your personal history while filing eAPR..there your are only required to state the experience (rarely they ask proof as it is understood that you may not have same)
--
make sure you stay eligible on the six fsw selection factors 67 points while trimming down the experience...you can try with varying years of experience and see for yourself..
I have only put in 3 years relevant experience..and will be showing remaining 7 years in personal history...
mmmm, going back a bit now, but in 1996 I applied for a student visa for a year. Best year of my life!
Not sure they would be able to tie this back to then to be honest. It was so long ago.
For those with lower than 400 points what would be the lowest score in order to get an invitation to apply? Will it drop down to 350-360 or be around 360-370 or will never change? I think they recently announced that they will give a chance for those with a lot lower scores that a threshold of 400 and up?
Hi,
You don't need to freeze them, you just need to show that you have more than the minimum requirement when you submit you PR application (post-ITA).
Your bank letter will also need to show your 6 months ave. balance. Its best to minimize the difference between this and the current balance. So manage your funds wisely.
Hope that helps
No one knows how low the scores will go my friend. The best advice I can give you is do everything in your power to increase your score and give yourself a fighting chance. Improving your language is perhaps the fastest way to increase your score, if you haven't maxed out already.
All the best
Either ways there are pros and cons. If you wait and the draw doesn't come down you are wasting your time and if you go ahead with pnp you would lose CAD $1500 as well as time taken by them to revert post receipt of you're documents. My score is 411 and I am facing the same dilemma. But I haven't received any invite yet but even though if I receive I am willing to wait for a couple of draw hoping by the predictions, for the score to come down. Cheers lets hope for the best
Sorry to disappoint anyone, but, I do not think it is even possible to get below 380 or even 390. In fact, the bench mark in my opinion is 410.
Why?
Any student in Canada graduating from university with the 3 yrs program + 1 year work exp + 6666 in IELTS= 394
Any student in Canada graduating from college/u with a 1-2 yrs program + 1 year work exp + 6666 = 360-390
I mean it is just too easy for local students to get 360-400, and given the fact that there are way too many students graduate each year (or each term). So, CIC understands it just as well, that is why they are only looking for the top of the class and specifically those with high academic qualification or more years of experience or higher language. All in all, they won't invite average scorers because it makes EE system pointless, a good example is that they added relative thing and french speaking thing to make sure the score won't go down (IT WAS 413,lowest as it can get).
This is the brutal truth.
Thanks for sharing your opinion. However, I hope you know that until a few months back people were saying that there was no possibility of the score ever falling under 450. And as we all know the lowest CRS so far has been 413, which came as a shock to both the optimists and the naysayers
The point I am trying to make is, no one knows for sure. The Express Entry pool is dynamic and gets influenced by several factors - new immigration rules and regulations, annual quotas, the number of people joining the pool every week etc.
The way I look at it, your opinion is just an opinion based on your understanding of the Express Entry process. Believe me, it isn't the "truth", whether brutal or not
