But still 300 is a very small no.
Finger crossed

Hii everyone....

Great to see such an informative forum...My first lines in this forum as well as the thread...!!

I m new to all this CANADA thing....Just realised a few days back about the opportunity to go to CANADA...Just about to start all my formalities of applying through a consultancy....The conultancy guy informed that ECA would take 7 to 10 days from applying....got my date booked for IELTS on July 6th...IELTS score card shall be received from 13 to 20 days from July 6th(my exam dt)...So most likely I would be applying with all apps by July end...!! I am willing to apply for NOC-0211(Engineering Manager).

I am a Project Manager (Mechanical Engineer) with 3 years+ experience.

Do I stand any chance of getting a PR??!! atleast some chance???!!

Please help me with some suggestions....As I have to invest a lot of money for this...Is it really worth giving a try this year??!!
 
Before investing for WES & for consultant, do check http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/complete-applications.asp this link next week. We are hoping that CIC will publish figures as its going to be 1 month since it's launch. IF, you see that there are still more than 150+ application slots left in your category, than you can start with your WES & stuff, as it is really very costly.

Right now, there are 12 applicants who sent applications for 0211 from this forum. So when the figures come out, you can actually calculate if you still have a chance till the end of july.


P.S. I am not discouraging you, but, I either don't want your money to be wasted for nothing. You can however, sit in IELTS and that will be valid for 2 years, also the WES report will be valid for 5 years for immigration purpose.

I am waiting for my IELTS results to arrive. I expect them in 1.5 weeks. This week I am doing the translations and the PCC. Despite what many say here, I will apply right after my IELTS results are available. And I am in a hot NOC 1112. Nevertheless, I think I still stand a chance. At least as long the CIC does not publish the numbers. ;-)

Though NOC 1112 statistics might be disappointing this year got filled up this year .At least you might apply for next year. Never give up hope:)
 
Thank you soo much Jigzyy....!!

As you said, I ll go for IELTS and ECA as it has a few years validity...Anyways I ll be getting these documents ready for submission to CIC by end July only...!! So, based on the cap availability then, I shall decide on whether to apply or not...!! I hv another option of NOC 2132(Mechanical Engr) apart from the NOC-0211(Engineering Manager)...I shall apply if any of them is available....!!

I have another doubt if any of you can clarify....Is the processing fee paid to CIC refundable if the cap is reached by time my application reaches them??
 
Hi Everyone,

Thanks for starting this thread.

I am also waiting for my IELTS , still had to apply for my transcripts from my University and do the ECA . I am in NOC 2174 which many say has already filled up. Can someone advice me whether its good to hire a consultant or apply by themselves...

Thanks
 
Hi Mosharaf

Please guide me what request you need to make to the University to get the sealed and signed envelop . Does it contain the degree certificate as well or only the marksheets?

Thanks.

Almost all university have this provision , you just need to knock them with some fees.
Yer, It will contain All final or provisional degree certificates, Individual Mark Sheet/Result Card issued by University. To be sent directly to WES by the awarding authority.

All documents must be stamped and verified by the Controller of Examination. Verifications or notarized copies from any other source will not be accepted.

Same time download International_Transcript_Request form from the web below, fill-up the upper part & submit it to your University. Your University will fill-up the lower part with official seal & signature. then along with this transcript request form, all certificates & transcript/mark sheet will gather in a single envelop, sealed & sing the envelop, then University may send to WES or deliver to you to send personally.

And create a online account throw WES web http://www.wes.org/fswp/

thanks

If you have any idea when CIC publish the number ???
 
Is the spreadsheet genuine? coz the information provided in the sheet should be confidential from CIC point of view. ::)
