1. Should I wait for IELTS TRF ? Online result received today(L8.5,R9,S6.5,W6) ? Updating IELTS result will led my CRS score to 501 from 484. As tommorw will be a draw.
2. Should I remove my canadian work exp. that doesn't add any points in my CRS score? As I switched my current job in last July, which is not adding any points in my profile. However my previoius job was in Quebec(Working from Ontario), current is in Ontatio, so hasitating to remove the ontario one as that required in CEC to leave outside to quebec.
   1. I found some answer that suggests me to remove now and declare it after ITA in the personal history.

1. Update the scores.
2. Seek a legal advice or wait for someone here to advice.

I filled this part in a few days ago and I could add around 40 entries, so it's definitely not limited to 5. I suppose there likely is some limit. I remember seeing somewhere suggestion that you can add remaining entries as a table in your LoE and explain that you kept getting an error.

Thanks a lot

Update those scores yesterday already!!!!

As others said, update the scores. I wouldn't remove any work experience unless it's difficult for you to obtain employment letter or if it's completely irrelevant. I know you said it didn't bring points, but you do make a good point about showing willingness to live outside Quebec.

Came across a pretty interesting documentary about Indians international students and shady practices:

Not sure what they are complaining about? An MA in communications from Alpha international college is the most sought after degree in the whole world. Four of my tenants go to this college.

lmaaao . I don't think I have seen such an aggressive campaign for Canadian education anywhere in the world. In Russia, there are agents that work with certain universities and colleges but they don't guarantee admissions. They will proofread the statement of purpose, advice on TOEFL/IETLS scores, help with arranging money to pay for tuition, help with visa application package (check the documents). However, they don't guarantee that any part of that will be successful (except, money transfer part).

In some cases, IRCC may extend medicals so you can wait to see if that will happen in your case. You can save on the medical cost.

Okay, I wasn't aware of that but I'm worried if they asked for re-meds then getting an appointment, doctor uploading the result and not sure when the next officer will have a look at my case might add lot of delay to the application.

Getting a medical in India is around 100$ USD only.

Since there is a high incidence of TB and other lung diseases, I don't think that they will extend medicals for most high disease burden countries. If it doesn't hurt you much financially to get the medicals, then go for upfront and upload via a webform (if you know your VO). But kim that the unique identifier (IME) of the second medical may not sync with your account in a timely manner as we have seen with many people earlier this year.
I'd wait until I got the request from them so that the medicals will sync ASAP...

I get that these degree mills need to be held accountable. But at the same time, I don't feel sympathy for the victims. They are the ones knowingly falsifying their test scores and trying to game the system. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. How do you hear a name like Alpha College and say to yourself "yeah, that sounds legit, I'mma go there". Good god, one google search will tell you all you need to know. Fact is, they want a better life (this I understand), but they choose to take shortcuts and it costs them. Let them do their protests. They tried to cheat and got burned. That's on them, is it not?

The video does highlight negligence on Canada's part though, such as that one policy for ethical recruitment they choose to not sign. It echos what I and some others have said for the longest time. Canada needs the flow of money to continue. And they're willing to screw people over to get it.

My friends knows such a consultancy in India and they do all kind of shaddy things in the world we can't even imagine. They start preparing an application 6 or 12 months ahead, with new bank accounts of applicant that even applicant have no details, they put funds there to show the money and then charge % of interest on that. They know which shady education boards(For High School) are accepted by Canada, they use those particular ones, and I don't even need to explain the shady IELTS centers etc.

Basically, these so called agents can pick anybody in general public, who doesn't even understand basic English, never been to a school and get him ready a student visa in 6-12 months in these mills

Well in that case I just hope for a PPR before they expire , that would be the best scenario.

And yet, at the end of the day, these people are agreeing to cheat because they want an easy way out. Nobody is forcing them to cheat. Nobody is forcing them to game the system. Yes, I understand shady consultancies and agencies exist. But anyone who chooses to lie willingly to get through the backdoor should accept the consequences.

Well I totally agree with you, I just feel bad, most of these have everything in the world to be a genuine candidate but still they choose these shortcuts and then end up in this $hit

Agree here. However, it's weird that there are unicorn companies operating from within Canada (ApplyBoard) that promote this. I do think that those kids are not victims; anyone with the internet can check. The only person I feel bad for is that girl's father. Seeing him working so hard just to give his daughter the future he has never had... Idk, I feel bad for the guy.

This video is actually pretty interesting. Fraser knows about it, JT openly admits that they need international students. It seems like one of the pillars of Canadian economy is constant flow of foreign students.
