Hello. I have just started the process for express entry. Please clarify me on certain things. I have submitted my documents in Hec. Would hec send my attested degrees photocopies itself in a signed and sealed envelop to canada or i will take signed and sealed envelop from them and send it myself. Secondly do i have to get equivalence of my wife degrees also like i am doing for mine. Are there extra points for that? Secondly my wife has her masters from UK so does she still need to do IELTS.

Yes you have to collect and send degrees yourself. No institute from Pakistan would send those.

In the express entry profile there are points for spouse qualification and language proficiency. Though they are far less than those of principal applicant. So if you want to claim them, only then you do her ECA and language test.

Again if you want to claim points for her language proficiency, you need IELTS / CELPIP.

Does one have to fill out spouse details in EE application, if principal applicant is the only one moving to Canada ?

I am in.

Just needed to clarify one thing that if an individual is a master degree holder in International Politics, and has an overall band score of 7.5 in IELTS with no band less than 7.0 and he is 33 years of age and has a working experience of more than 3 years as an I.R. Specialist, will he be considered for the Express Entry Scheme under FSW?

Actually, the main issue I see with my qualifications is the lack of demand and opportunities for social sciences people and in particular of those, who have got their degrees in political science or the related subjects. My question now to all of my dear Pakistani fellows would be that if I have enough points to be invited in a draw, will this fact that I have the studying and working experience in a skill category not so much in demand in Canada will hamper my application? Or would I be considered based on the fact that I get more points than what is the closing score as my skill category is in the list (no matter its demand is short)?

Your swift responses will be highly acknowledged.

Thanks and best wishes to all of you,
Malik Shafiq

Well, I didn't for myself as the primary applicant. But I did get WES evaluation for my wife, who is an ACCA. The process is the standard one as per any WES evaluation. Send in your completion certificate (if you don't have one you can request ACCA via email and they will send you one). Then also request ACCA to send the transcripts directly to WES. I found them to be quite cooperative and helpful.

In my wife's case, the assessment was equivalent to a 3-year Bachelors. Keep in mind, though, that she is not just an ACCA Affiliate (i.e. only completed the exams), she is an ACCA Member. I guess that helped with the evaluation.

Hi,
Glad to see all of you here.

I need little help regarding my Ielts points:
I have Ielts score L 7.5, R 8, W 6 & S 6
How much point i can get for language in CRS? What i calculated are 91?

secondly do i need to go for Re-test of Ielts or this score is ok.

ECA awaited from ICAS since march 16th: Still no response.

Points will be above 350.i guess.

Thanks.
