Hi All,
I have got into a tricky situation.
And need your suggestions on that.
I submitted my OINP profile on 29th August with a CRS score of 435.
I thought my IELTS is expiring by 30th September but it expired on 22nd September and as I didn’t updated my express entry profile they changed it to not eligible and moved it out of the express entry pool.
I have created a new profile under the express entry pool with new IELTS results. But my CRS this time is 379 as I was not able to achieve CLB 9 again.
I haven’t updated my express entry profile with Oinp. Nor I have updated them about the change in my CRS and the drop in CRS.
What should I be doing from this point?
So you need to have an eligible and valid express entry profile for them to send the nomination to. The only way out that I see is that you retake the IELTS , maybe the computer based one and then update those results as soon as possible (aim for CLB 9). Post that you may send the required information to OINP about your old and new profile, so that they can then send the nomination to your new profile.
You can try calling them and ask about this, but since your current score is 379, while they invited candidates ranging from 435-458, that might be an issue. But no harm in checking with them first
Thanks Akhil
2 Qs here.
1.I have been hearing from my PR agency that 2171 is the next eligible Noc.
Hence keeping my fingers crosses on this.
2. Also will it be ok if i change my NOC to 2172 just to an invite?
Wont it be like fudging if data coz 2172 is more related to IT coding while 2171 is Analyst based role.
What you suggest
1. I cannot comment on that, frankly no PR agency would have that kind of information. Just a way of making money (if your contract with them is contingent on you getting an ITA/ if they charge extra for PNP processing/ if you haven't signed with them yet and your signing is based on you being sure about this)
Neither they, nor anyone can be sure about that. So that I leave to your judgement
2. The point is , you should be able to get the relevant roles and responsibilities letter for 2172 from your employer. In that case it isn't misrepresentation. If I take my example again, while deciding my NOC initially, I actually discussed it with my manager for a long time and finalised on 2171, based on job titles and some responsibilities.The point of contention even that time was 2171 vs 2172.
Post news of this Tech draw initiative, I again got back in touch with him, and based on past work ex and projects I had done, actually 2172 made more sense per my profile.
So if you have worked on Databases, ETL, Business Intelligence etc, then 2172 is definitely relevant to you and not just IT coding purely. That would be 2173 or 2175
