Hi,

I am currently filling my online application form for Express Entry.

I am completing the Study portion of the online form and have a query regarding what education details need to be listed.

I have got my degree evaluated from WES and have filled the details for my degree in the form.

My question is, do I need to add details of my secondary education in the online form as well?

In that case, should I get my secondary education (in this case A-Levels) evaluated from WES as well?

What if i just upload my degree details and submit my application?

A swift response will be appreciated.

Regards,
Shafin
Depends where your degree is from... for pakistani degree holders as far as i know one has to get eca for their higher secondary and secondary school transcripts too, wes always tells you when applying online which all transcripts you need to submit depending on your country of institution, if at the time of submitting if wes didnt ask for secondary school docs then no need to mention in cic profile.

You only need to mention the education for the ones you are claiming points for meaning ones which you have gotten the wes evaluations(eca) done for in the form/cic profile.

Hello guys,

Has anyone recently tried to get an appointment from IOM Karachi ? I tried the whole day for the appointment today but could not get through their call center as it is always busy and put on hold for 30 minutes above. Plus, the email of IOM is not working as it sending a 'Failure Notice'.

Is this a normal occurring at IOM ? Any advice on how to get through to them for an appointment ? Do they accept walk-ins ?

Regards

I do not have any reference from CIC website. My GCMS notes state many things locked at AOR date and i recently came to know that i just passed eligibility. This proves that PoF rate is locked at exchange rate because if they would have taken current rate, i would have less than required amount in CAD due to exchange rate difference.

Thanks for responding for previous questions

Can any one have experience to verify degree from overseas, I have completed double Masters from Australia- Melbourne and prior education is Pakistan based. I can visit Pakistani Universities for physical verification. However, can't visit Melbourne physically as I'm moved to some other city. I Know email is the most reliable way but there is a mere chance to get the process delayed because of poor administration of University. Any advices or share your experiences?

Dont worry I graduated from a Brit university, Just email they support or info office at your university and it will be directly delivered to IQAS / WES,here are the steps to follow

1. Apply for WES / IQAS assessment, and send your Pakistani documentation, along with your foreign qualifications.
2.You will get a reference number, download the transcript request form from the website, this form should be sent to the admission office or whoever will process your request for foreign qualification,ask them to issue your transcript and send it directly to IQAS / WES with the filled form.form looks like this
https://www.alberta.ca/documents/IQAS/academic-records-request-form.pdf
3. Some universities ask to pay for this service,so pay them, and they will directly send the transcript to IQAS / WES.The form is not mandatory but it is good practice to include it in the sealed envelope.

While you are requesting transcripts,BE CAREFUL about the following.

1. Try to get the university to acknowledge emails you have sent,if they are not responding,call your school and they will sort it out.
2. Include maximum information, like what was your ID number, name, date of birth, Department.
3. Always ask them to do a TRACKED DELIVERY,and if they ask,pay for the service.
4. THIS IS IMPORTANT,ask them to put the stamp of university or department on the openings of the envelope, like HEC does.

Hi i couldnt find your username so had to quote you directly. I graduated from my university in 2017 and i have been working as a Management Trainee (also known as Graduate Trainee Officer) in a company and held various role during the period for 1 year. My age is around 22, and i have a high score in IELTS as well. I however am not able to find NOC code as there is no NOC code for such a position. Can you and others on here please guide me how to go about it?

Following are my roles in that position:

Assigned as Assistant Brand Manager for a period of six month on a certain brand
Assigned as Project lead for Key Accounts, Sales, Supply Chain, Sales Operations in the following months for one month each
Final position was supposed to be in Finance

OK so you are hopping between positions between different NOCs, for Express Entry, you need to choose one NOC, have roles and responsibilities matching that NOC, got to be paid full time or equal amount in part-time,If you have worked less then 20 HRS it will constitute as a part-time job, full-time jobs are normally 35 H/week and up.Have a look at this

It was full time, fully paid. Top ranked position for a graduate in Pakistan. The company was Reckitt Benckiser. Lets say i apply for the marketing NOC code, but my experience in marketing is only for six months, will that be an issue?

Also, does NOC code impacts your job pool when you get your PR?

1.
ii. In the last 10 years, how many total years of skilled work experience do you have?

It must have been paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation (NOC skill type 0, A or B).

This is the question related to occupation while you are calculating your points,it explicitly say only one occupation,so either marketing or Finance,and you need to show you have one complete year in that particular NOC.Here is the link
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp

2.
No,They only role NOC plays is if it fits your Job duties and responsibilities and If it is live,If you can demonstrate you have 1 complete year spent in one noc,you can claim points for it,so e.g. you have 6 mt experiance with reckit and benkiser,and 6 months with P&G and you were marketig assistant at both places,you can claim 1 year.
