Hello Experts,
Please answer my below questions regarding EE.

(1) Does the home country work experience becomes irrelevant now?

(2) Is there any need to maintain funds?

Regards,
Prasanna

For the EE I scored 450 points out of 600 under the Core/human capital factor,Spouse factor and Skill transferability factors.
Since I didn't get 600/600,how do I apply under Express Entry?
If I get job offer/PN nomination=600 points
Total=1050/1200
EE is not for the weak but for the super strong.
Good luck people under EE.

KSA no fear for you, you have already scaled thru with FSW. EE is for those with returned applications and those who can't meet up. It is really a difficult process.

do we really need a WES ECA for spouse?

do we really need a WES ECA for spouse?

Under EE,WES/ICAS/CES ECA is mandatory for PA & spouse in order to earn the needed points.
Good luck my great people.

Dear experts,
I am a software professional and could not get into FSW 2014.
I am looking forward for express entry.But it appears it is going to be very tough.

1) Do we need to find a job offer before we apply in the new system ?
2) Is there any chance of me getting through :
IELTS SCORE : S-6.5,W-7,L-8,R-9
Education : B-TECH - Obtained ECA from WES as a four year equivalent degree
Work exp :7 years
Age : 29
Spouse IELTS :S-6,W-6,L-6,R-6.
How much points will I get ?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Just feeling the process but am not applying.
I am happy for what God has done for me under
FSW 2014.
I pray that God favour will go with all the EE applicants.
Good luck

I think 450 points is very high and that you will probably be drafted in EE.

If they only draft those that have over 600 points, they will stop completely the immigration flow - which is not something they want.

The only way to get over 500 points is with over 5 years of Canadian Experience... which is very hard as well.

just fyi -

EE focus is all about higher language skills - the higher the CLB - better ur chances

CLB 9 AND ABOVE STAND good chances in EE

and those who are married - have an advantage over skills transfer-ability too

its wise to do French basic too - adds up a lot of value to your score

whole purpose of EE IS - survival of fittest and those who can make their mark in Canada and not end up doing odd jobs

good luck and welcome your discussion and clarifications

Hello,
This new system of points looks unfair.
I honestly do not agree the spouse's points to be added to the total points an applicant can obtain. This brings a detriment to the single applicants that might integrate better to the social and economic life of Canada. The single applicants are usually younger than married ones and the younger generation might not have the N years of work experience but they might have had better education and skills than the older applicants. And, as a single person, he/she might even marry with someone that is already in Canada...again, easier to integrate single people than married ones.

I am an expatriate myself and I see that married people tend to be little more isolated that the single ones, they prefer to spend the time with the family (which I understand), they don't go out so much, they still continue to live in their world instead of adapting to the new one.

So, it is totally unfair for a single applicant, with a degree in IT for example( Bachelor or Master), with 3-5 years of work experience, to have less points just because he/she is not married.
Pray, how the spouse will help the principal applicant to integrate to the work market from Canada? Why her language skills should be added?

I am a single applicant, with 10 years experience in IT, both in my country and outside my country ( I have been working for European Commission and European Parliament), I have good IELTS results, I talk 4 languages and I am not very old but still, I lack points because I am not married.

Again, to me it doesn't look fair and I am frustrated because of this. What, should I marry now??!

I hope what I wrote did not offended anybody.

Galusca,

You are reading it wrong. Please read this thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/fswp-2014-ends-in-december-express-entry-details-out-t255128.0.html

It's better to be single in EE. I would have got more points single than I would as married.
