Yes, I used it multiple times and yesterday I looked it up again and for some reason got confused about this whole CLB5 / CLB7 thing. My original plan was to take the test when I am at the B2 level but then yesterday I thought that a lower level would suffice. Now I realize that it wouldn’t, so...

Sorry, I meant the CLB6 level, it’s still at B2 so I thought it would be valid but I now realize that if the CLB7 is mentioned specifically it means that CLB6 would not be enough even if it’s B2. Sorry for the confusion. Here’s the table for CLB6 that I found: 6 181-206 (B2) 271-309 (B2)...

Got it, thank you. But I also just realized that there is an “upper level” of CLB7 and a “lower level”. I guess a “lower level” is closer to the B1, so you are allowed to make more mistakes and have a vocabulary that’s not as extensive. You will get almost no points for French but it will still...

415 with CLB5 473 with CLB7

Hi everyone, I want to apply for Express Entry via the Federal Skilled Worker program. My IELTS results are CLB9, my French is almost at a CLB7 (B1 level). It says on the CIC’s website that your first language (English for me) should be at least at a CLB7 level. And your second language should...

I will order CAIPS anyway in case I need to reapply later.. Thank you for the advice :)

I didn't get CAIPS, got the refusal today and heard it takes one month to get CAIPS.. and I want to apply within the next 2 weeks

I didn't get CAIPS, I want to apply within the next week or two max and I heard it takes 1 month to get CAIPS.. My studies begin on September 4th so I have to reapply ASAP

If my overstay was the reason for refusal they could have indicated it, instead of saying my LOA wasn't genuine. Also, I spoke to several people who overstayed for longer times and were granted a new study permit.

My backstory: I was studying in Canada before, then overstayed but left Canada on my own 3 years ago. All this time I have been working in my home country (Russia) and now decided to apply for a new study permit to finish my education. My visa was denied and here is the reason: "whether the...

Hi, I sent my application to VAC in Moscow, Russia on August 7th but then they requested some additional documents and they sent documents for processing only on August 14th.. So that means I applied on 15th :)) Some people here got approvals in 1-2 weeks or even less so I am hoping for the best...

Thank you :)) I will apply now for sure.

Those of you who applied at the VAC in Russia, how long did it take for your application to be processed? My classes start on September 5th and I am planning to apply on July 31st, which leaves 5 weeks for processing (CIC website shows that processing time for Russia is 5 weeks). I am not sure...

Thank you :)

Hi guys! Does anyone know if I can apply for a tourist visa to Canada online without the need to travel to the embassy in my country? I am currently in the USA and will be in Europe soon however I am a citizen of Russian Federation. So, in these circumstances, would it be possible for me to...

Thank you! Very helpful website :)

Please share your timelines for Outland applications. I heard it's faster and there are even cases when all steps (from ITA to approval) take just 2-4 months. How common is that timeline?

Thank you. Looks like it does have to be continuous :(

And if experience is not Canadian?

Thank you for your reply :) One more question. I thought I've read somewhere that it has to be one year non-stop work or smth like that. But I don't see it anywhere now... If I have 9 more months of full time work from 2 years back in the same NOC can I use it? Or is it not good since it was't...
