Document upload for Certification of Qualification

[anupamroy7]

Hi all,

I have received an ITA under FSW in last draw. Now after finishing my application for PR its asking me for uploading certificate of qualification. I have Master's of Electrical Engineering degree from Canadian University. Can I upload my Masters degree as Certificate of qualification? I don't have any other skilled trade certification.
I mentioned "Yes" for "Does [my name] have certification of qualification from a Canadian province or territory?" and i have got points only for "Skill Transferability - Education" (50 points) not for "Skill Transferability - Certificate of qualification".

please advice

PS: My apologies in advance if this question has been asked several times before. I would appreciate if somebody can provide me links for those topics/threads.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Anupam,

You should upload the copy of certificate of qualification document. Because you claimed as you have it in your profile.

The below text is taken from CIC websie:

Thanks for your reply.

Just to clarify, i don't have any skilled trade certification. I thought Master's degree in engineering from Canadian university can be consider as Certification of qualification from Canadian province.

My suggestion would be decline this ITA and wait to get ITA in next draw. That would be better than not proving your claims and getting into trouble. Give it a thought and decide.

Thanks
