Thanks Arif introducing yourself here and congratz for your Ontarion Nomination.

Just wondering how you increase your CRS point other than IELTS? I believe your CRS point is higher than 400 which is pre-requisite for OINP.

Thanks for your suggestion!

You may want to hold on to congratulating me. I haven't got nominated yet. I just got the notification to apply for the Nomination which one must receive before he/she can apply for OINP.

Anyways, Yes, MY CRS is above 400; however, it's only 407.

I think, for us Bangladeshis, we have a little option to increase our CRS other than getting a high score on IELTS. I got L-9, R-8.5, W-7.5 & S-7.0

I don't think it's a high score, but it's good enough to give you a boost. Besides IELTS, you should try to get Positive ECA on both Bachelor and Master Degree. Unfortunately, I was positively assessed with Canadian Equivalent Bachelor Degree.

If you are happy to invest some money, you can have your spouse education assessed. In addition, spouse's IELTS should also be very helpful.

If you have 6 years or more work experience in your NOC. This should increase your point too.

Nevertheless, I personally think that a Bangladeshi applicant must practice hard to get a good IELTS score.

I hope my responses make sense.

Thanks!

Thanks Arif for your detailed answer. Wishing you got your nomination soon.

Unfortunately my score is 346.

>I do have MBA + 4 years Bachelor - ECA came as Double Bachelor (4yrs)
>My wife Masters + Bachelor - ECA came as Bachelor only
>Age 36
>11 yrs experience in NOC 4163 (approx.5 yrs) and NOC 0131 (6.5yrs)
> and finally IELTS CLB 7 (my wife yet to appear for ILETS)...........you have excellent IELTS score!

So I understand that I have to improve my IELTS otherwise no way to improve my score considering above scenario. I applied for Saskatchewan Nomination but very little hope since I have 2 different NOC experience. So points may not cover.

If you are interested then we may keep in touch!

Best of luck!

Thank you Mahfuzul Bhai for sharing your information. I hope you get nominated for Saskatchewan. What I see from your qualification, you will easily meet their 60 points min. requirement. In addition, I just read in their website that they are taking additional 500 applicants. I pray and hope that you become one of them.

I was wondering how have you met your settlement fund requirement for Saskatchewan. I am having a hard time figuring it out. I have 3 and a half month old baby boy. I am struggling to put together CAD 18260 with appropriate proof of fund.

I am pretty much online all the time. Feel free to email me at arifur.rahman[at]rocketmail.com

Best of luck to you too.

Dear Arif,

For settlement fund you have to show liquid money/cash at your hand. Unlike Australia immigration, you can't show your assets for Canada. I believe it is the case for both PR or PNP.

However, the cash money can be at the name of your spouse. But you have to show it available since last 3 months of your application and maintain the amount for rest of the immigration process.

Good point is the CAD value is devaluating aginst BDT. So you have to show BDT1,025,000/=. It could be available current/savings account, Pension fund kept at your employer or DPS at any bank/financial institution, Sanchaypotro etc. If you have shortage of money then you may lend from somebody from you FnF or take loan from a bank.

SK Nomination not sure. I claim all my 10 years experience but distributed over 2 NOC. Don't know if they consider it or not. If not then I will try for next IELTS to improve my score. Really hard to find out time to prepare for IELTS. Not sure if I can make it before February 2016.

Thanks again for your contacts!

Dear Mahfuzul Bhai,

Thank you for sharing your insights. I too agree that devaluation of CAD against BDT is a good thing for the Bangladeshi applicants. I have encashed our DPS/Savings Certificates and also sold some golds to arrange the sufficient fund. I have paper trail for all the transaction and I will prepare a letter of explanation for the proof of funds. I hope things work out well.

Thanks again for your ideas.

Hi,

I believe no documents should need to be uploaded on Express Entry profile. Right?

Yes, you are correct. You don't have to upload anything to express entry profile for Nominee Programs. For Ontario, I have to make hard copies of all the documents and post them through a courier service.

Hi,

How do you sending OINP Processing Fees? Pay Order? Can you reimburse the amount if anything wrong (I wish this won't happen)?

Hi,

By the grace of ALMIGHTY ALLAH, I just received nomination from SK. I got notification through my CIC account and I already accepted. (I understand from the EE Guideline that SINP should reconfirm to CIC.....am I right?)

What should I do right at this stage? Should I update EE Profile that I got nomination from SK? I tried to update this but can't scroll down the option and select 'Yes'

Anybody facing similar problem? Please suggest!
