Disclaimer: I am NOT very confident on the points allocation in this case.

Having said that my high-level understanding is that a 'post-secondary' refers to a post 12th grade qualification; and since his diploma is post 10th grade and not post 12th, he just gets a secondary school diploma and not a post-secondary diploma which makes his points as 21 and not 22. But I could be incorrect; as I said I am not very sure on this one.

I have a simple bachelors and a masters so I am sure I have a 23 from this part. That's as far as my clarity goes on this section LOL!!! :)

and its strange because this is same programme with save curriculam where some of my batchmates were also got admission on the basis of 12th grade with different .
quota.

So we studied same subjects,duration,exam to earn this degree but WES evaluated this as secondary & not post secondary.

Although I am not 100% clear on this, but basis my previous post I think it gets 21 points and not 22. I could be incorrect but that's what it seems to me now. ???

It is based on this link from CIC: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/ECA_table_EN.pdf

Now I am 99% sure it's 22 points.

Upon further inspection, I agree with SSP. It does look like the "secondary diploma and diploma (2 years)" is equal to a 2 year post-secondary credential. So, this in combination with a Bachelor's degree would be 22 points.

Sorry for the earlier post and confusion.

Men.. I was just about to get conviced myself that I get only 21 but seeing your,SSS1 & Oscar's post its giving me goosebumps that I may claim extra 1 point just to be on safer side of pass marks of 67 as you never know if they will grant full points for experience or deduct any.

This issue has already been cleared. It's 21 points. The diploma is "secondary" not "post-secondary" as evaluated by WES.

Where i am coming from is that "secondary school diploma(5 points)" is different from the credential for his case which is "secondary school diploma and diploma (two years) (19 points)" as per WES.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/ECA_table_EN.pdf

I agree "secondary school diploma" with Bachelors won't fetch you 22 marks but his diploma is evaluated as "Secondary school diploma & diploma(two years)" which as per this document is equivalent to "post-secondary credential" and by virtue of this, should be applicable for 22 points.


Just check the document once and you'll find what I am trying to state here.

Already corrected myself dude. You were right. And +1 for that.
 
Hi All,

I am new joinee to the league, I mean to the league of FSWP applicants. Happy to see lot of motivation and support from everyone. And to be honest, I've been referred by one of my colleagues to visit this site as it contains very good content, posts and will clear most of my doubts. Although I am very late to have just started the process but am quite optimistic and wish we all can have a union in Canada in the New Year sometime. Wish all the very best to everyone who wants to get a PR.

Re: Rumors on PCC Validity Period

Oscar7 said:
Okay, for once this needs to be made clear as I see that (some) people are misinformed about PCC validity and are spreading incorrect information. Unless PCC instruction for YOUR specific country says to wait for some particular milestone of the PR process, please do NOT wait post PER to get the PCC process started.

There is only a requirement of getting PCC issued within the 3 months of initial application submission, if one is submitting PCC along with the application right upfront. Post that stage there is no such 3 month condition, and a PCC can be obtained one day after the application submission and that is okay too. THIS IS SPECIFICALLY FOR FASTER PROCESSING VISA OFFICES LIKE CPC-OTTAWA, NEW DELHI ETC. that process applicants and generally issue PR within 8 to 10 months. The only thing CIC states on PCC validity other than the above is that all PCCs are considered valid by CIC for 1 year, unless a shorter validity duration is mentioned on the PCC itself by the issuing authority. Normally, most PCCs don't mention validity periods (exception can occur though) but only have a date of issue for the PCC.

In essence, when a PCC is valid for 1 year from the date of issue, for folks from faster processing VOs there is no point in not initiating the PCC process right after Fee Charge or PER. I, in fact, initiated mine right after application submission in May 2014, and both my PCCs are issued in June 2014 itself though my PER came in August.



Note: If you are including your police certificates with your application to the CIO, please ensure that your certificates were not issued more than three months earlier. Police certificates are generally valid for 12 months from the date they are issued. However, if a final decision is not made on your application before the expiry of your police certificate, the visa office may request that you provide a new one.[/size]

I agree with you Oscar, went through the Doc Checklist, it is evidently clear, they insist we start the process of collecting the PCC and avoid dealys whatsoever. Thanks for clarifying, even I did get my PCC dated as of the 22nd of May was confused with various perceptions being across on its validity. Cheers!!

Welcome to the forum!!
 
Admins, please help me understand this. Estimates section on 'charge date estimates' sheet on SS excludes certain working dates (Mon-Fri) including today's date, why?
 
Gurdeep0878 said:
Dear Marcel,

CIC will review only last 10 years of record form the date your application has received by them or will be received by them. So do not bother about last 13 year period records just focus on last 10 years period.

Cheers

PCCs are required from all countries you have stayed > 6 months, since the age of 18 onwards (except Canada) and not just last 10 years !!!
