[nazimali110]

Hello there!

I'm so nervous about next draws, but in the end we can't do anything

Now we are in the pool since 18th dec, our crs was 466 then we increased to 470. Actually i have hope that we'll recieve ITA before april but, problem is we need to move to canada before november because of military issues. My husband have to serve to his country after november 26th, in best case for 4 or 6 months and even we recieve our prr in that matter of time probably we will miss 6 months landing timeline.

I don't know what to do, he is going to retake ielts again, for clb 10 for additonal points, his last score was R 8.5 L9 W7 S7 after 6 attemps! so it' s hard to get 7.5 for speaking and writing in one week. And i have to add that we are trying almost 2 years after 6 ielts, wes and iqua now we're here, finally have enough score, and points are increase even more!!!

You might get invited at the next draw.

We are looking at a range between 469-472 (this is just a guess)

Be hopeful

Book for the next available test. There should be one holding next week (13th Feb)

Nothing is assured,we can’t guarantee the scores we can only make predictions

Please is possible that province sends out invitation to candidates at different time or everybody receives mail the same time? Who got New Brunswick French speaking invitation? Or do we wait for 24 hrs ?

Can I ask which country? You can try CD IELTS if its available.

 

[dyllee]

is it your only experience or you have any other experience as well ?

Combined work experience across 2 jobs, both NOC B

 

[chemistesa]

Waiting in the pool at 459. Any chance for PNP for NOC 2112?

 

[shersingh]

In EE, you get maximum points for 3 years of work experience (outland).For SINP, maximum points is for 10 years. I have also left out one year out of my 10 years work experience and I will mention that in my personal history, since I could not get a letter for that.

If you the experience certificate of the latest 3 years then simply list whatever you have. When you get the invite, you would then have another section to declare past experience(but you dont need to provide experience certificate for those). The documentation is needed for only what you claim points for. So, keep it limited to what you have good documentation.

 

[nat.abramovich]

Primary one needs to be minimum 1 year long.
Primary NOC will add up 2 years of experience, secondary one will add 18 months. But it tops off at 36 months in Express Entry.
However, more number of experience years is good during PNP applications. Eg, SINP (Saskatchewan) counts last 10 years of experience.

What is i i meet the requirement of cec with one year canadian experience, in that case can i use 1 year forign experience considering the fact that my foreighnt one year comes from 7 month one job and 6 month from another job in anither country both are forign ??? Please help

U can just mention the last 3 years of work experience in ur work history and provide reference letters for those.the rest all can be mentioned in the personal history ( no need of ref letter ) .

Thank you all

I had a 461 with 9 CLB. I re-attempted and got a 9.75 which brought my score to 483. Hoping to get in the next draw. Don't loose hope. Try re-attempting language exams to improve your score.

Am I the only one here who is thinking of taking TEF to give me better odds? I already maxed out on IELTS, and I will be getting 479 points on May 26, 2020; that's when I become eligible for CEC. I am looking out for that FST draw which screws up everyone in the pool. The last FST draws have caused spikes which are yet to come down. If the cut-offs are in 470s now, imagine what a FST draw could possibly do. I am not being pessimistic here. I could try fancying my chances with a 479, but I don't want to miss out on an ITA because of a stupid point or two. I wish CIC could at least release the distribution stats for scores between 450 and 600 in the increments of 10 points, so we can actually know what scores are safe.
