Hi All,

I am a s/w developer having 6 years of experience and i m living in Canada from last 18 months.
I have already sent my first set of PR application(under FSW category) to Sydney NS one month back .
Today i got IELTS score of 6.5 (L=6.0, R=5.5, S=7.0 W=7.0) , so i got total points in language category is 12.

So my question " is my IELTS score is eligible for PR?"

Why i am asking this question because somebody confused me as he is saying 5.5 in reading module is not sufficient and i need to give re-exam.

but i m not sure whether he is correct or not also i have checked the CIC official site and didn't find any clue.

So guys please please help me and let me know whether my IELTS 6.0 score is perfect for PR under FSW category.

Really appreciate your time!!!

Thanks!!!!!.

No not good, if you need full points then you need:
L 7.5
R 6.5
W 6.5
S 6.5

if you get 67 points with your point 12 then its good for you, if you need to score with IELTS then you have to follow above bands which I mentioned here.

Hi rag-sax,

I am just posting a message from Doorza who is a PR applicant. I believe that even if you get the qualifying pass mark of 67 and your IELTS results is not up to the mark, VO has the right to disqualify your application based on the requirement of your job.

Please read below:

email from london visa office what to i dont know big problem

Dear Mr.
I am now completing the assessment of your application for a permanent resident visa. It appears that you may not meet the requirements for
immigration to Canada.

Section 82 of Canada's Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations states concerning arranged employment:

"Ten points shall be awarded to a skilled worker for arranged employment in Canada in an occupation that is listed in Skill Type 0 Management
Occupations or Skill Level A or B of the National Occupational Classification matrix if they are able to perform and are likely to accept and carry out the
employment."

The occupation for which you have obtained an Arranged Employment Opinion (AEO) is that of Drafting Technologist/Draftsperson, identified in the
National Occupation Classification (NOC) by the code 2253. Among the duties and responsibilities identified by your prospective employer for the job
being offered to you are: "Develop and prepare engineering designs and drawings from preliminary concepts, develop and prepare design sketches,
complete documentation packages and produce drawing sets, check and verify design drawings to conform to specifications and design data, write technical reports, prepare contracts and tender documents, prepare construction specifications, costs and material estimates."

English is identified on the AEO as the required language of your prospective employment. You have provided an IELTS test report form which indicates that you have moderate proficiency in English speaking and reading, and basic proficiency in English listening and writing. The job being offered to you requires you to be able to develop designs and drawings from other information as well as to complete documentation packages, write reports, and prepare contracts and cost and material estimates. Where it appears reasonable to expect that clear communication and understanding would be
necessary for efficient business operations, the ability to communicate in English at only a basic or moderate level appears to be a serious impediment
to your being able to perform the duties of the job offered to you in Canada.

As it appears that you may not have the English language proficiency which would enable you to carry out the possible employment in Canada, you
consequently do not appear to satisfy the conditions in Regulation 82 for obtaining points in the factor of arranged employment.

Before I make a final decision, you may submit additional information relating to this assessment. You must provide any additional information
within sixty days from the date of this letter. If you choose not to respond with additional information I will make my decision based on the information
before me, which may result in the refusal of your application.

Sincerely,

Mitali,
Drooza overall band score is 5 points . If u get overall 5.5 points u r thru. See on trackitt.com forum many have sailed across just scoring overall 5.5 points. This is their minimum criteria. IF u score in all 4 speaking/listening/reading/ writing/ 5.5 u r thru. But if u score 5 in any u r a basic user and not moderate so chances of rejection becomes clear.

There is something called "substituted evalucation" in which even if you have the 67 or more points, the visa officer can deny visa if he thinks that you will not de able to adapt economically in Canada. I suggest you ask the experts like Qorax, Leon, PMM, Maatias for advice on this. The officer has not refused application but is clearly asking you to give him something that will make him decide positively in you favor. I would enroll in english classes and send him proof of it, maybe that will help.
