Federal Skilled Trade Class (FSTC) Application

[Ralukino]

I already submit an application to Manitoba and they asked me for all these requirements and I am still in the first step ( processing the application)

I think this restriction could be to control the number of application and may be for choose a specific people who settle in Canada.

However, everyone has to try and don't lose the chance.

In order to pass the test you need a SIN #, and an employer.

I think you are talking about Manitoba provincial nominee program. In the application package for certificate of qualification, they don't say anything about visa invitation letter.

After submission of your Trades Qualification Application (including the supporting Work Experience form, Employer Letter or similar and copies of any trade related certificated), it will be processed and you will be notified regarding exam approval or denial.
They just approve you to take the exam, but the visa it is something else . I would apply for immigration with that letter.

Dear friends I told you that Apprenticeship of Manitoba asks about exam to skilled worker who intend to immigrate to the province under this program and here is the link

http://www.gov.mb.ca/tce/apprent/skilledworker/challenging_exam.html#howtoapply

If approved, you will receive an Exam Application along with your Exam Approval Letter. Note: You are given one year from the date of your Exam Approval Letter to write your exam.

◦Review the Exam Schedule listing to select the time and location you prefer.
◦Complete the Exam Application with your preferred time and location you selected from reviewing the Exam Schedule, and submit the appropriate fees.
◦Prepare for your exam. See Exam Preparation Resources for more information
◦You have four hours to complete a multiple-choice theory examination. You must score 70 per cent or higher on your examination and successfully complete the practical exam (where applicable) to receive a Certificate of Qualification. For a list of trades which include a practical exam, refer to the work experience requirement chart.


◦If you do not pass the exam, Apprenticeship Manitoba will give you a summary of your results to show which areas require improvement and you may apply to re-write the exam. If you are not successful after the second attempt, you must take Apprenticeship Manitoba approved upgrading before attempting the exam again. If the exam is not challenged within one year, applicants must re-apply and pay the appropriate fees.


So if your application approved you have to pass the exam in Canada.


How to take the exam without going to Manitoba and without getting visa through invitation letter from them regard to the mandatory of passing 70 % of the multiple choice question of the exam as they said ?

Please anyone knows anything about this issue tell us.

Hello, so I don't want to give you any hope, we don't know what to expect either. We sent all the documents to be proces for the CQ in jan 21 in Alberta , the fee was $450. Then we contact immigration Alberta and we asked them if it is enough to apply for FST just with that letter, the answer was positive. We received the evaluation in April ( end of April , so it took 3 months for the proces, they contact my husband employers and they had a lot of questions) . So we have a year to get in canada, find an employer and schedule the exam.
Based on the answer that we got from immigration alberta, and on this sentence that is on the application guide(Recognition of qualifications and issuance of licenses can generally only be completed once in Canada.), we wrote a explication letter. We sent our immigration application in may 1st, they recive it on may 8th.
We will let you know if they will approve the application
Good luck to everyone.

Thank you so much for these valuable information and wish to you all the best.

For me Apprenticeship of Manitoba told me that I have to wait for processing for 4-6 weeks, I submitted all required documents in the 1st of May.
So I have to wait until the 2nd week of June.

Please let me know any update about your application with all good wishes for you to succeed.

 

[Ralukino]

They told us the same, we contact them after 6 weeks, and they said that if we don't get any answer from them by mid march to contact them again. And they contact the employer in April.

*** In Canada, only the provinces and territories can issue Certificates of Qualification in the skilled trades. To get this certificate, the provincial or territorial trades authority must assess your training, trade experience and skills to decide if you are eligible to write an exam to be certified.

You will likely have to go to the province or territory to be assessed. You may also need an employer in Canada to give you experience and training.

Yaro71 what is the status of your application?

I'm, also, curious but I'm not sure he will answer. He didn't share anything so far, he didn't want to say if he had got a job offer or not.
Almost all adds for industrial electricians say that one must have a certificate (or all kinds) and those jobs are for canadians, so it would be a miracle for someone who is a foreigner to get a job just like that

Dear Ralukino, Which programming are you applying for or can one from outside of Canada apply to sit the exam?
