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
Hi Lance,

My 2 cents about EE. I think it is a glorified work permit and that too very complicated. Instead, I would say, convert it into Work Permit, test the guy who comes and then issue PR after few years like other countries.

The basic disconnect is no one is clear as to what CIC wants. Is it the language? Canadian Exp? Job offer? PNP? If eliminating odd jobs is their priority, then why did they increase the over cap to 25000, knowing very well that people are ending up doing odd jobs.

I think it a simple attempt to copy and modify other systems, but seems to have failed miserably. The reasons being:

1. PNP and Arranged Employment will take lot of time. There are very less chances for people to get either and qualify for the so called Jan "Draw", will CIC still pick top guys and ask them to apply for PR? Not clear?
2. Is there any minimum cut off? No one knows
3. What is this strange rule about accompanying spouse? Are they suggesting one should bring them or should they drop them? What if the person goes along and brings their spouse in family class, will they still ask for what ever has been asked now?

Over all, it is a very poorly designed system. Unless, CIC is clear about how each qualifier is contributing to the objective of bettering their immigration, I don't think it is going to yield any results. My rating of this program is 1/5...

Please share your views. Will be very useful for all of us.

Thank you.

It is very hard for a spouse to add points. You will have to do an ECA for the spouse and a very high grade on IELTS too.

If you are not married, those 40 points are added to your base calculation - which is easier.

I've simulated both scenarios for me and I would have 10 more points without Spouse - even if she has a IELTS band 7 and a Bachelor's degree. Another applicant with spouse has calculated his points here and got the same: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/express-entry-2015-preparation-join-here-t232257.495.html
Hi Idefix,

I think you might have missed a point here. It says accompanying spouse, not essentially married. It means, you will score full points even if you are married, but not bring your spouse along.

This is where my disconnect is. One can always apply for himself, gain full points and then later sponsor their family.

This is where my disconnect is. One can always apply for himself, gain full points and then later sponsor their family.
On this page: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/criteria-crs.asp

They say: "* The maximum number of points is the same no matter the person's marital status."

So, yes, the program is not very clear yet. We will have to wait the first draws in order to understand everything better. Or at least the go-live of the system when points should be clear.

But I'm almost sure it is not a glorified work permit. I guess the draws will be something like this:
- If you have over 600 points you are automatically drawed; (you have a Job Offer or a Provincial Nominee);
- They will draw top X applicants from a few NOCs every now and then;

Finally: Optimist, you need to change your nickname :p. It doesn't suit you anymore ;).

it is the same thing i see on my galaxy tab and laptop. it is not browser issue or are you suggesting that it has left Germany? Even their update today shows it is still in Germany for warehouse scan. It says held in warehouse per service offering and i understand from enquiries from people that it may take 2 weeks to get to me. it is just crazy.

I am not sure whether its actually a UPS issue. Can you clear the browser cache and then track. Sorry if it sounds too basic, but I have been in that situation.
