Hi DD,
There are 3 categories of FSW, you've gotten them mixed up, they each have their own requirements, see here:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who.asp
Sorry i'm not being very clear, i did an assessment and i was told that i had to have arranged employment so i assume i find work and then send in the forms (FSW)???
Arranged employment is one type (FSW2). It has to be a skilled job (NOC O, A or B).
I read that it the job i get must be under the NOC38 and that i should have at least one yr's experience with it.
FSW1 - you automatically qualify if you have at least 1 year of experience in one of those 38 occupations...
I have that with ABA but i thought just in case i cannot get a job in ABA that as long as i'm tutoring be it ABA or something else it would count...
Now I know you're not teaching an elementary school kid "applied behavioral analysis." Do you mean you're a type of special ed teacher? What is your degree in?
however i have other concerns more important, since i have to put my partner on the application and prove that we are together, i'm hoping that won't be too hard since we have a daughter....
If you have been living together for at least a year, he can be on the application as a common-law partner. The documentation can be challenging, tho, so read up on it and start making any changes necessary...
Get your application info here, and remember its a long term process... CIC changes forms, information, rules, often wihout warning, so you ave to keep checking here for updates (the documents all have publication dates on them).
