2. I am currently a PhD student in Canada

CIC will award 30 points for a degree, diploma or certificate of three years or longer, or for a Master’s, professional or doctoral degree of at least one academic year. You are still a student so have to wait till completion before you could claim those 30 points.

Hi

Can someone please clear my doubt if possible, I have a qualifying job offer from Ontario and I will apply for LMIA in a couple of weeks time OR without LMIA No will I be scoring extra 50 points.

Is your work permit an open work permit or is it a closed work permit? If it's a closed work permit and the name of the employer is the same as the one offering you the job then you might be eligible. (There are other requirements but this is the main point)

Any reply experts??

What should job offer look like,

Does anyone know if it need to be job offer with salary structure etc. or just the assurance for 1 year employment from employer

 

[aaww]

Hey guys,

Is the 30 points for a three-year or more Canadian degree solid? Because the score usually goes lower if applying together with your spouse. I'm pretty sure the 30 points is guaranteed for single, but how about for couples? If my partner also graduates from Canada, does that mean we'll totally have 60 extra points?

You should have job offer with your designation, salary structure, your working hours / week and the roles & responsibilities.

The points for Canadian Education Credentials were grouped with PNP and qualified job offer points as additional points. Which would mean that it's additional points if the principal applicant has Canadian Education Credentials, regardless if they have a spouse of not.

27.1 The additional factors referred to in paragraph 8(1)(d) are factors relating to

(a) provincial nomination;
(b) qualifying offer of arranged employment; and
(c) Canadian educational credentials.

Canadian educational credentials

30 (1) The points that are to be assigned for a Canadian educational credential are the following:

(a) 0 points, if the foreign national has a secondary school educational credential;
(b) 15 points, if the foreign national has an eligible credential from a one-year or two-year post-secondary program; and
(c) 30 points, if the foreign national has
(i) an eligible credential from a post-secondary program of three years or more,
(ii) an eligible credential from a university-level program at the master’s level or at the level of an entry-to-practice professional degree for an occupation listed in the National Occupational Classification matrix at Skill Level A for which licensing by a provincial regulatory body is required, or
(iii) an eligible credential from a university-level program at the doctoral level.

Highest level of education

(2) Points are to be assigned under subsection (1) only for the eligible credential corresponding to the highest level of education for which the foreign national meets the requirements of subsection (3).
Requirements

(3) Points are only assigned under subsection (1) if, for the purpose of obtaining the credential, the foreign national

(a) studied in Canada at a Canadian educational institution;
(b) was enrolled in full-time study or training for at least eight months; and
(c) was physically present in Canada for at least eight months.

Eligible credentials

(4) For the purpose of this section, an eligible credential is one of the following:

(a) a degree, diploma, certificate or trade or apprenticeship credential from a Canadian public postsecondary institution or from a Canadian private post-secondary institution that operated under the same rules and regulations as a Canadian public postsecondary institution;
(b) a diplôme d’études professionnelles (DEP) or an attestation de spécialisation professionnelle (ASP) earned through a program of study of at least 900 hours from a private secondary or post-secondary institution in Quebec; or
(c) a Bachelor’s, Master’s or doctoral degree from a Canadian private post-secondary institution, if a provincial statute authorizes that institution to confer that credential.

Bliss for international students like me. Changes will finally bump my score from 435 to 465. 8)

My Score is 320 and I got a job offer and the employer agreed to process my LMIA. But now with this new rule, any 'Remote' chance of improving the score?

> WES did not recognize my Post Graduation as the college name was not recognized? - Any chance of re-evaluating this?
> My IELTS score is CLB7 -- Will surely retry to make it better

Any other inputs would be much appreciated...

Hello Experts, am confused on one of the new changes to EE. I was on my post grad student workpermit till the October and received BCPNP (paper application) nomination. I have applied for
a Employer Specific workpermit (with BCPNP Support Letter), received last week which is tied to the current employer am working for. This is LMIA Exempt workpermit (R204(c) with exemption code T13), which has
my 'Offer of Employment' number (LMIA exempt). I have permanent, full-time job offer letter from the current employer (which was issued when i was on my post grad workpermit) and already have accrured more than 1 year of work experience with the current employer on my post-grad workpermit.
The question is will this full time job offer be qualified as 'Arranged Employment' and fetch me 50 more points..??? ???

Points will be awarded for job offers of eligible candidates here on LMIA exempt work permits.

Many people in Canada temporarily on an employer specific LMIA-exempt work permit, but who want to stay in Canada permanently, will no longer need to get an LMIA to be awarded job offer points by the CRS. This includes candidates who are here under the North America Free Trade Agreement, a federal-provincial agreement, Mobilité Francophone, or who are intra-company transferees.


unfortunately Post-graduation work permits are not in the above list. You may want to check the published article below.
