Express immigration for only Mauritians nationals.

Pre Application phase :

1. Determine your eligibility for express immigration.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp or
http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/ee-start.asp
(fill an approximate score for IELTS and TEF exam according to your capacity)

Provide answers to the questions and the tool will tell you if you are eligible or not. The basic eligibility criteria are as follows :

A) You need to have your language test results ready (English or French)
1 .English test , IELTS General - is done at IDP Port Louis or British Council in Rose-hill (I would prefer the latter)
2. TEF exam . Le francais.. At 1, Rue Victor Hugo, Bell Village​

3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp

4) Determine the code that best applies to you on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/noc.asp

The occupation must be NOC 0, A, or B for FSW or CEC.

5) When you have those in hand you create your express entry profile. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/profile.asp and register for the Job Bank http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/home-eng.do?lang=eng

You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/pool.asp

Of course, the more points you have the better. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer with a very hard to get Labour Market Impact Assessment http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp

For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.

6) Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following:

a) Have your application fee (C$550 each for principal applicant and spouse) and right of permanent resident fee (C$490 each for principal applicant and spouse) ready
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp

b) Identify how you will provide proof of funds http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp

c) check out what is required for the police certificates http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/security/police-cert/index.asp

d) find out how long it takes to get a date for the medical exam. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp

e) contact previous and current employers about them providing job letters. You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week. Work experience while you were a full-time student does not count.

f) research cities in the province(s) where you want to live.​

Hi,

I would like to know if the ECA Process is compulsory for Bsc( hons) Degrees? I heard that Engineering Degrees do need to be approved by a Board once you reach Canada but Bsc ones do not need it.

Any thought ?

If its needed - Where do we have to do it ? Do we have any institution in Mauritius to facilitate ? Or it needs to be completed by Boards in Canada only ?

Regards.

Can anyone please share a redacted copy or sample copy of the character certificate as I have applied for the same for my spouse but it won't arrive till the next few weeks. Need to prepare a LoE accordingly as my last date of application submission is in a few days
