Hi VickyL, IRCC as a body may consider exceptions. But who knows, case officer assigned to your application is considerate or not! I understand that you are trying to be honest, which is a good thing in most cases. But here, In my opinion, by being honest, in your particular scenario, you...

Hi naren.ratnu, Oh, that's not good to hear about your student visa refusal. But for sure, there must be a better plan for you ahead. Keep walking. Have you calculated your CRS Score, what score do you get? The first thing is to see your CRS score before commenting anything further. For...

Your welcome, VickyL. Happy to help. You can PM me, when you sign off. Bon Voyage !

Hi gsohi2011, Seems like you are doing it in a not-so-right way. Exclude the leave from your reference letter. You can refer this below link of another post, I replied to another gentleman there (similar to above concern of yours) -...

Hi gsohi2011, I congratulate you on receiving an ITA. Bravo !! It is the first biggest turn in any one's pathway to Canada. You must be aware, however, would like to re-emphasize that there is a lot of running (in collecting documents etc.) in 90-days time frame post-ITA. Because it looks...

Hi Mariner11, It is a pleasure to see guys from Merchant Navy fraternity applying for Canadian Immigration. I welcome you in your endeavour. Well, to be honest - If you are willing, you can do the process on your own. But the catch is - A) our profession is quite different; therefore the...

Hi VickyL, There is a way of showing our experience so that it is deemed to be continuous. And by this, I also mean that showing/producing Seaman's Book / CDC (to substantiate your experience) to visa officer can actually ruin your application for the FSW programme. For sample experience...

Let's say if you were working for an 'X' company on a contractual basis for many sea-going contracts Make an endeavour to get an experience letter from the commencement of your first contract until the end of your last contract. Do not show any gaps. If you do show gaps between each contract of...

Hello VickyL, Yes, you are. I faced the same hurdle to not able to find a seafarer applying to migrate to Canada, as a principal applicant. Yes, CoC is not going to help in claiming points. Only the academic qualifications, backed by ECA, can be claimed for the points under education. Is...

Hi Divyang, The hourly (be it weekly or yearly) calculation is simply to measure Full-time vs Part-time Jobs. It has got nothing to do with the Continuous work clause. And many people (including regulated consultants) are not aware of it because their understanding of seafaring jobs is limited...

All the very best to you. Yes, I have received ITA.

If you have BSc degree, you first get it evaluated from WES for your Educational Credential Assessment. Meanwhile, you can also start to prepare for your IELTS. A ECA of Bachelor;s equivalence and a good IELTS score will fetch you qualifying CRS points.

You are good to go, Gorukh. BEng will fetch you 4 Year Degree equivalency. GME might get you a PG diploma. Regarding counting of work experience - you got to have full-time permanent employment not the contractual one. You can attach seaman book if you want, otherwise a legitimate experience...

Hi Gourkh, You will not get any credit for COC, it is an Competency Certificate not a Educational Qualification. WES assess only your education. and also let me know, if you have any degree under your belt. All the best.

Hi Amarjot, Do you have any educational degree like B.Sc. or similiar?

Hi Fellas, I received my ITA last month & most of my documents are ready now including PCC, Medical, Experience Letter etc. But I am in big catch because of nature of my job. I am in Merchant Navy where I work for few months onboard ship and few months off. And FSW eligibility requirements...

Guys, in the paragraph of reference letter below - do you think is it okay, or SHOULD I need to erase the last two lines (underlined to draw your attention)? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- His work and...
