FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[future_canadian]

my friends consultant told this.....he has applied through CANAM

Consultants are notoriously unreliable and have no privileged information from CIC. This forum is more helpful than any consultant.

Hi guys! I would like to ask for the points requirement for FSW

Read the Guide to understand the process: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EG7TOC.asp

Moreover, what I believe is that CIC is checking files thoroughly so that LVO is instructed clearly on which app to do BCG and not and also all the points calculations and other things are already provided in complete manner so that LVO doesn't need to any rechecking and directly send MRs. In this way the processing time of file would be very less from LVO side.

Regards,
Amar

We can hope!

Re: 7th May Applicants - PER Received?

Hello 7th May applicants,

Did anyone of you receive PER email from CIC? I got information from my bank that demand draft is charged on 3rd July but still no communication from CIC? Please share the updates.

Thanks and regards,

Not a single 7th May applicant has got PER. We're all in the same boat...

Dear Friends - According to the below eligibility link for education

cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/factor-education.asp

it appears that if you do not have a masters degree in the following fields:

Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, Dentistry, Podiatry, Optometry, Law, Chiropractic Medicine, or Pharmacy.

then you cannot claim 23 points for masters anymore?

Please let me know if this is the correct understanding and if you can no longer claim 23 points for masters in engineering?
Thank you in advance!

Re: 7th May Applicants - PER Received?

me too, still awaiting for PER mail from CIC. but i did checked my ECAS status and it shows we have recd your app on 7th May. so does it mean that my DD is encashed ? i didn't checked it with bank though.

any more guys from 7th May list who are in the same boat ????

If your ECAS status is In Process then your DD has been cashed.

Please help determine the points I am entitled to claim (for education) with the ff. evaluation of WES:

Credential #1 Canadian Equivalency: Bachelor's degree (3 years)

Credential #2 Canadian Equivalency: Four years of professional study in law

Credential #3 Canadian Equivalency: Bachelor's degree (4 years) - equivalency is in conjunction with study previously completed in # 1.
(degree actually completed: Master's Degree)

Credential #4 Canadian Equivalency: Master's degree
REMARKS: Academics in the field, upon consideration of the dissertation, may in some instances consider
this credential to be equivalent to an earned doctorate (Ph.D.)[/b][/b][/b]
(degree actually completed: Doctorate degree)

Hoping that someone has encountered the same evaluation.

Thank you.

I suppose this will be decided by your ECA report whether they recognize the Masters degree as equivalent or lower compared to Canadian standards. I know of Post graduate in Finance being recognized by WES who provide ECAs.
Hope this helps.

Folks,

I have [SIZE=15[color=orange][/color]pt]2 questions[/SIZE] and appreciate if someone can throw some light on these:

1. Multiple applications: in some previous posts, I have read that some applicants have sent multiple applications in similar NOC’s. Does anyone know what happens if both the applications reach clears completeness check and reaches Local VO for processing. Does that create any issue at Local VO?
Say if a person sends an application in NOC2173 and a separate application in NOC2174(as these 2 NOC’s are similar)
What happens if both the applications get approved and goes to Local VO for processing?
Will CIC reject both saying how can you apply in 2 NOC’s, if not, then which application gets processed?

2. Fee charge for Processing of Multiple applications: considering above case, does the person gets charged twice and is there any refund offered if Local VO learns that the applicant had sent 2 applications?

I remember reading some similar cases where people had sent multiple applications…… not sure what happened to their second application.


If anyone remembers who that applicant was, please let me know his details. I was unable to locate it in the excel.

All university master's level degrees can claim points. But if you do not have a master's degree the OR option applies which is, those with University level entry-to-practice professional degree (And the criteria for field of study is only applicable for those holding entry-to-practice professional degree)

A masters in anything is 23 points.

A professional qualification degree in those fields is also worth 23 points even if it is a bachelors. For example LL.B. (the degree required to practice law in Canada).

It is no problem to submit multiple applications with different primary NOCs so long as you submit a complete application for each (separate originals of ECA, IELTS, etc) and pay the fee for each.

If both/all applications are accepted and move to the local VO stage, you will eventually be asked to withdraw one of the applications. You will not receive any refund of fees.

NOTE: Though it is fine to apply in multiple NOCs, do not try to claim more than 1 NOC for the same job experience and do not submit contradictory applications! If you've had 2 jobs both in eligible NOCs then go ahead and apply in both. If you've only had one job, don't try to apply in 2 NOCs based on that one job!
