Hello, guys..
I am PhD student during 4 years in ottawa university. I'd like to chang my status from study permit to PR. Can I apply PR into Express Entry?
I heard about PhD stream Federal skilled work progam afew years ago, but I can not find any information about this stream that I can apply.
Is it still available? or nobody know?
If somebody get PR recently, please let me know how you can get and which stream you applied.
I have IELTS above 7.0 in total. I have a NOC code 4012 as teaching and research assist.

I'd like to know about federal skilled worker program, not provincial nominee program.
If I make you confused, sorry about that.
What I want to know is whether I apply Federal skilled worker program under Express Entry or not.

Hello, guys..

That stream does not exist anymore.

All the information you need is on the IRCC website. Try using the ones already posted.

I have a NOC code 4012 as teaching and research assist.
You cannot use in-Canada student work experience as qualifying experience. You would need eligible work experience either from your home country, or after you finish your studies in Canada. the Ontario PNP PhD stream may be your only option at the moment.
