If he was a full time student you can select full time. Foreign work experience gained while studying is acceptable. However, you are right, it makes no difference to the CRS score. You just have to be honest, thats all.

Well,

We're still confused : couple of friends say should select part-time and few have their money on Fulltime Education.

He has completed his MBA from a distance study program where he attended classes for less than 15 hours a week (less than couple of hours per day). What should he select? any guesses?

Thanks

Hello,
I have following problem of my own case : please share any views

ITA : 1st Draw of May 2018
AOR: July 21st 2018 (visa fee paid)

November 3rd 2018 : I get an email saying :: There was an administrative error with your application number. We have deleted your old application however your data is safe with us please link your account to new application (they provided the hyperlink in that email).
New Application Number, New Unique Client Identifier as well.

Also they asked for the Visa Fee Again.

November 9: I paid the visa fee again they replied a link for refund (which I have not taken yet).

My question here is that has someone experienced this kind of thing??
Also how much more time do you think they're going to take to make a decision?

Typically I have seen my friends getting visa within 3 months (plus minus 15 days) time period after submission of the application where as my application has taken way beyond that (about to reach 5 months).

OR they have reset the clock while they created my new application:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:


Please do share your views!!


Thanks & regards
P.S. My consultant is dumbstruck on this never seen this type of thing ...lol

Surely your friend knows if he was a full-time or part-time student. It all depends on what his course was called.
Based on those hours it seems to be part time to me.

Hello seniors,

Please answer my query.

After class 12th I took admission in Bachelor of Maths but failed 1st year
Then I enrolled for 4 year engineering program and completed it.

Should I mention that 1 year of incomplete failed education. If not then there will be 1 year gap between class 12(secondary school) and bachelors degree on set

Kind Regards,

Hi,

In education history just mention the engineering degree. You can then mention the 1 year maths course in your personal history section if you did it within the last 10 years.

This is just for data collection and does not really matter, so you can select Applied sciences or even other.

2. My level of education is being asked on 2 places. First entry is not linked with ECA report. Here , should be "Bachelors degree or 3 or more year program at a university......" or should it be " Masters degree or professional degree or professional degree needed to participate in a licensed profession".

Put your highest qualification. If you have a master's degree just put Masters.

3. What shall I select second time on same page where they are linking it with ECA report with below words

You put all your post-secondary qualifications that you have an ECA for individually.

Only post-secondary education is required, so don't include this.

It depends on the number of years you took to complete it. Put the time you took.

According to the ECA her master's degree is equivalent to s Canadian Bachelors degree. So you can only claim points for 2 Bachelor's degrees not a masters.

Number of years put 1 year.


8. For NOC code, my job is related to Purchasing/Supply Chain. I have experience of almost 13 years in this field. My current Job Title is " Section Manager Purchase". I have heard that 0113 " Purchasing Managers" is not in demand in any pnp program. Can I select 1225 " Purchasing Agent & Officers" which is lower level than managers?

It's really up to you. Do your research and select the one that best suits your situation and experience.

No, just mention the main one you visited.

One more query, no gap in address history mean the end of one period match the start of the next period?

address 1: 4/2/12- 5/19/14
address 2: 5/19/14-7/11/16

or the start of the next period should be the day after the last day of the previous period?

address 1: 4/2/12- 5/19/14
address 2: 5/20/14-7/11/16

Hi,

Read page 1 of this thread. It will give you a good idea of how it works.

Step 1 and 2 are to get your educational credentials assessed by an accredited organization and taking language test (IELTS) and others if you speak French.

All the best.
