    Bangalore ppl interested in moving to Canada let's help each other out

    Thanks! I am gathering all my documents, and have a few questions regarding the employment reference letters and other stuff. 1. I do not have my compensation/salary information in my reference letters, but I have all the pay slips and hike letters - would they do fine? 2. I moved between...

    Bangalore ppl interested in moving to Canada let's help each other out

    @Asivad Anac, I chose just the 'ECA package', and the service says: 'Evaluation - Document by Document'. This cost me 233$ including HST + Standard Delivery charges. I guess the ECA Package covers the 'document-by-document' bit. In fact, when I tried upgrading it, it says 'Upgrade your...

    Bangalore ppl interested in moving to Canada let's help each other out

    I fit into NOC 2171, but there is certainly an overlap with 2174 as well - you know how the software world works! designations are generic, but roles and responsibilities are something else :). IELTS: R:9,L:8.5,S:7,W:7 (I can definitely improve on S and W, I guess) Hi Ramakrishna! Glad to see...

    Thank you Asivad Anac

    @Asivad Anac I have a question about NOC - My roles and duties fit right into 2171 (http://bit.ly/1MKUD27), but my previous employers have given me a generic title (software developer and software engineer) though the duties I performed and responsibilities I was entrusted with were completely...

    Hi there Gaulov. Thanks for starting this thread. I am in B'lore too, and am quite interested in moving to Canada. I've got my IELTS and WES done (my spouse's too), but haven't created an EE profile yet - am waiting for my PG Dip. cert to arrive. (NOC - 2171) Where are you in the process? And...

    Certificate of qualification

    Bump.. Same question here. Could somebody please clarify? I have a PG Diploma on its way, but if this certification helps, it would hasten things a bit. Thanks!

    Hey, just another question: I noticed this on the CIC website: "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. Important notice: One must be for a program of three or more years. ECA assessment results: A three-year or more certificate, diploma, or degree PLUS any of the results in the...

    Express Entry Step by step instructions.

    You are a veritable mine of information. Thank you very much! I do have a couple of questions for your response to point 1 above: Once I get my PG-Diploma, should I apply under "Two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees"? And since my Bachelor's degree is a 4 year degree, should I get an...

    Express Entry Step by step instructions.

    Thank you very much! That was helpful. Couple of questions: 1. I will be getting my post-graduate diploma in a few months - do I have to get an ECA for it as well? 2. Can I create a profile now, and update it later when my wife completes her IELTS next month? Or do you recommend I create a...

    It is quite impossible to get an ita with 416 points in 2015, any hope in 2016 ?

    Newbie here, and alarmed at this statement. Is this a "fact" or a rumor? I was told a score of 400+ stands a decent chance.
