Hi Indira
What happened...... you are no longer active ??? What happened to your passport issue. Could you finally apply it through 'Tatkal'. And TODAY was the day for your husband's result. IELTS..... 8) 8)
My wife just managed to get the required score
. Overall band 7 with listening 8.5. Anyways, got the required 16 points....... ;D. I presume that your husband did well and are busy in completing the whole set of application. All the best.
Cheers

Hello Anil/FMA,
Things are not as easy as they look like
at least for us
My passport will take some more time and every time i go to the passport officer, they raise a different issue
, i sorted out 3 of them with special permissions from the Regional passport officer, but i have to get a new birth certificate in order to launch my passport reissue now :'(. That's going to take another 10 days altogether i think.
Next, the IELTS... Prab has got a overall score of 6.5, listening - 7, RRS - 6 each. Now that we got 8 points in language, we just arrive to the 67 points. We are bit unsure if we will make it, with this points. What if CIO doesn't validate my diploma? we will lose the 3 points and our application will be back
. Also looks like i need at least 15 days to sort out the passport and birth certificates issues, without which we will not be able to apply. All other documents are in place. I just returned to Chennai this morning after 2 days fight with the passport office people
. So, i guess it's alright to ask Prab to sit for one more exam and try to gain more points, hopefully
. Yes, we just need 0.5 band in each of the 4 sections and we will have a full 16 points and need not worry if my diploma is validated or not.
What do you think guys? It will take one more month to get the next IELTS results, but i think it will be worth it. I know we risk losing the queue :-\, but i see a lot of people regretting for doing minor mistakes and miscalculations and their applications being returned.
Our current points:
Education : 25 (10 + 2 + 5 + 1 + 2 years)
Age : 10
Work : 21 (5 years solid experience in 2151 - same NOC)
Adaptability : 3 (1 yr diploma with 10 + 2 + 1 years education)
Language : 8
What's your say guys ??? ????
Thanks,
Indira Prabhakaran.
