40th Draw - Ray of Hope

[andy108]

I'm just curious how many of those young people with great education and IELTS are applying every 2 weeks ? I don't really thing it that many, i believe that Canadian government doing some revisions to EE now and they issue low number of ITA's to keep extra ITA's for revised version of EE.

Drug, many get PNP nominations.. which are 600 extra points. I would say based on my observations, at least 150 per draw come via PNP.

Are there any other rules around OINP beyond needing 400+ points (and 67 on the original score system)?

For example are they selective about the NOC codes they select from? Do they prioritise candidates with some sort of prior Canadian connection whether its work or education.

It just feels like there would be a LOT of candidates with 400+ points and a degree in the pool.

There is no other criteria as of now. But I think OINP will change the criteria for 2017 nominations.

Before the ITA drop in May 2016 there were about 1000 people with the score 470+ every two weeks.
Now there about 750 people with score 482+ every two weeks.

so there are 250 people with the score between 470 and 481 are entering every two weeks into EE.

We had 8 draws since May, so there are about 2000 people in the pool scored 470-481

+1

Not any province. This is done by only Ontario province. If you have a score of 400+, you will receive a PT notification from Ontario province. Other provinces have their own requirements to fulfill. However, Ontario province does not have many restrictions, all they need is a 400+ score and they will invite you.

Thank you for the information...

I am in pool since June with 478 score but I have not received PT notification. I also understand that additionally you also need to send and Application for PNP (check this link http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/oinp-ee-human-capital-priorities-stream-comprehensive-guide-t396543.0.html).

Am I right.

I think OINP does not invite as of yet, and will resume in october.

What you've got to do is to choose Ontario as preferred province.

Check the professions for Ontario. I am an IT Professional and got Ontario Expression of Interest the day I created my profile. My CRS was 470

Did you indicate anywhere on your EE online profile that you prefer Ontario?

 

[jaymax]

Yes I selected all provinces in intended province field. (Was kind of desperate)

**Update** Ontario nominations are closed. No one will be getting anything till they reopen. Sorry guys

Hello every one,

I am in a confused situation, I did my veterinary science bachelors from India, did my WES evaluation which states Canadian equivalency to 5 years of professional study in veterinary medicine and I need licence to practice it. On other hand, I came to Canada in 2012 Jan as student to centennial college and graduated from food science diploma which is of 2 year duration (16 months: 4 semesters Fast track). Now when i made a EE profile i was unaware of extra points i get awarded and just made a profile by choosing level of education bachelors to bachelors and diploma as diploma, i was stuck at 461. Later i realized from forum that i can claim points and made changes to my EE profile as Two or more degree option, suddenly my points bumped up to 481.

After reading some question and answers on forum, i went on to a page that one of our friend suggested in this thread http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/eca-conversion.asp
and currently, my human capital: Level of education in CRS calculation is 128 but i see 135 will be awarded if i choose professional degree needed to practice since veterinary medicine falls under it.
So i did choose level of education for Veterinary as professional degree needed to practice and WES report provided, Diploma from Canada level of education i filled two or more degree since this diploma is not related to veterinary science and doesnt need a licence to work.But points didn't bump up, i am still at 128 for education factor
I am applying under veterinary technician Primary NOC 3213 with 2 year of experience and other jobs i did falling under B category for a period of 1.5 year, since i am not currently licenced as veterinarian but still i am in the field and trying to clear my licence.

Should i put level of education same for both? Is that the misinterpretation of the data?

Please advice, if i can make improvement in points? please.

Thank you every one.
