Thank you jes_ON! Yes this makes sense as companies don't offer awkward number of hours per week. Meaning they will either offer 15 hour or less, or 30 hours or more per week or in order to make it a definite full or part-time work. So it's recommended by yourself and few others that CEC is a...

Keeping in mind that the eligibility tool is very much generic - I just answered various questions and gave my answer to the "work experience in Canada" question as "less than one year". Still it recommended the CEC stream at the end. I will dig deep and try to have a concrete answer from CIC...

Thanks again scarletsally for your input! I have the following counter arguments: - Let's say for the sake of argument that CIC will check the number of months, not the hours. So if a person works 25 or even 29 hours in a week, that particular week won't be counted towards the 12 months...

Thank yo very much mady_1982 for sharing your thoughts! So I assume you've been through the process of Opportunities Ontario-PNP stream. I also wanted to proceed towards this but now after checking the facts, I am leaning towards CEC stream. Reasons: - PNP has confirmed that I got to remain...

Hi stuapp, I considered the International Student with a Job Offer stream. IELTS is not required in this. It is required in the Masters Stream where you don't have to have the job offer. Regards,

One more very important calculation I made for the CEC stream! Quoting the statement from CIC website below: It was extracted from the below link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/cec/apply-who.asp My point is that at least 30 hours per week is considered full-time work. Meaning that...

Sounds good jes_ON! Thanks alot for your input. Yes, I'm pretty much thinking on the same lines. The PNP process is too complicated and costly as compared to CEC stream. Regards,

Thank you ravdawg! I really hope this post will help many in choosing their future paths. Let's wait for some helpful input from the experienced fellows. Regards,

Thank you very much scarletsally for your input! Yes, the cost the main factor in this case. I am quite sure the process should not exceed three years in either of these procedures. Your response is very much appreciated. Let's see if any other experienced persons have anything to say about...

Hey Everyone! I've been gathering a lot of information on both the procedures of Canadian Experience Class (CEC) and Opportunities Ontario - Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). I'm currently in a situation that I can apply under the International Student with a Job Offer Stream or wait till one...

Hi there, I conclude you got advanced standings in some courses. As per CIC, an international student has to be in a full time student status at all times. I suggest you should talk to the international centre and your program coordinator about this situation. Did you check if you can take some...

Sounds good! Yes, you can go ahead and apply for the PGWP using the letter offered by International Office. They only require EITHER the transcript or the letter. Regards,

Hi there, Our champion member "mead" gave useful and to-the-point advice as always. But adding few points that right now, you're in a very delicate spot. You have to get good grades in your studies. There's a lot at stake - and you just cannot risk your studies by getting bad grades. My point...

Hi there, Congratulations on your completion of studies! As per your post, I believe you have completed BA of about 2 years first, and then completed diploma of 1 year. I have one question. Why didn't you apply for PGWP after the completion of 2 year BA? Anyway, I suggest you should apply on...

Seems strange. But there has to be some kind of a problem. Double check if you are using the exact same address. Sometimes "Crescent" is saved as "Cres" in the address field. Double check the postal code. If all else fails, better call the credit card company and talk to a representative. Regards,

Hi there, I am very much sure you have an online account on the CIC website. So every application is saved there. You don't have to worry about getting it deleted. The application won't be processed unless you make the payment. There can be several reasons for the refusal of a credit card...
