    Thank you Asivad Anac

    Back with another question - Applying under NOC 1123 (professionals in advtg, marketing and PR) for which I have over 3 years work experience within the past ten years. BUT - the last year and a half (two jobs) of my work experience and work duties fall under 0124 (Managers in marketing...

    Thank you Asivad Anac

    Thanks for your reply, as ever. Let me be more specific - we're thinking of her as the PA. And she has relevant work experience, but only 14 months over the last 3 years, outside of Canada. Would such long gaps in her most recent work affect her (and our) chances of getting a Canada PR visa? In...

    Thank you Asivad Anac

    This is a great thread! I have mentioned on other threads that Asivad Anac is THE most helpful poster here, and now seeing a full thread dedicated to his/her greatness. I have a query again-- on gaps in work. For my spouse, she has been doing consultancies over fixed contracts, which inevitably...

    For your transcript, use the college one for all 3 years. That is the advice that the university had given me and it seems like its correct. Also, get both your ECAs done - spouse education, especially if its evaluated, and IELTS score does count for extra points.

    NOC code confusion - NOC 4164 Social policy researchers, consultants and program

    I need some help here: My spouse is applying as the primary applicant on 4164. Most of her documents are in place. She obtained a Masters degree in Social Policy and Development in 2012. Post that her related experience has only been a few months in the space, due to a variety of reasons...

    Thank you sir! Finally, one last question before I complete entry to the pool - we're anyway building two EE profiles (one each for me and my spouse). If she hadn't applied as the lead applicant before but as a dependent, do we need to a) say that she (in particular) has applied before and b)...

    Thanks a lot Asivad, you have been one of the most helpful people on the forum! Have one query on the Job Bank profiles, when I'm building my profile there it suggests 0124 against my past designations. Wondering if that'll be a conflict if I've applied under 1123?

    Express Entry Step by step instructions.

    Anyone here can help please? Asivad, or any senior members? We are planning to create two profiles. Quick couple of other qs - I'm applying under 1123 (marketing professionals), even though the designations state 'manager' and there's enough overlap between 1123 and 0124 (marketing managers)...

    Express Entry Step by step instructions.

    I am now sitting, as they say, on the horns of a dilemma. I was planning to complete my express entry for NOC 1123 (total score 452) and suddenly discovered that my spouse could apply under NOC 4164 (Social Policy Researcher, consultant and program officer) with a total score of 458. It's...

    NOC code confusion - NOC 4164 Social policy researchers, consultants and program

    I'm wondering on this - my spouse has worked at not for profits in policy research and program monitoring and evaluation, for over 10 years and so fits into 4164 like a glove. Is it more wise to apply with her as the lead and me as the dependent, since i'm applying for a rather more crowded NOC...

    The overall Canadian Equivalency Summary says "Bachelor's Degree (4 years)". But in credential analysis there are two points: For pt.1 I have gotten Canadian equivalency : Bachelor's Degree (4 years) For pt 2 I've gotten Canadian equivalency: One year of graduate study. I am a little...

    I have got the following from WES 1. A bachelors (equivalent to 4 years) 2. One year of graduate study I have put it as Two or more degrees, diplomas, and certificates. Would that be appropriate? The material on the website suggests that it would be correct but would still require advice from...

    I think I'm a little too late in asking these questions - especially since I've only just begun to build my profile. A few quick questions on the form: 1. Should the work experience form also contain all the gaps? I had filled those up in the form and wondering if showing the gaps in work...

    NOC 2011 : 1123 (Professionals In Advertising, Marketing...) Please network here

    Sigh, so I think this has been a jinxed NOC. I had applied by Nov 3 and had hoped to hear back from the CIC by now. Fingers crossed.

    FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

    While there are some happy stories here I have a more basic question - WES has evaluated my education whilst completely ignoring my post-graduate diploma. It's not even there on the list of 'rejected' documents, its almost as if they never got it. This is especially strange since I had myself...

    WES Evaluation for Application from India - what to send and how?

    Re: WES Evaluation for Application for wife Hmm any clarification on that one? My wife's docs too are in her maiden name. Just a quick question to anyone from Mumbai univ - the university hasn't only stamped and sealed the transcripts, not signed across them. Hope this would suffice, since...

    FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

    A query on the education evaluation - this is for my spouse, and to give a bit of background, we're both likely to qualify under two different NOCs. Hence, we're both getting independent evaluations done and proceeding down the path of least resistance. She has used her maiden name for all her...
