Hi
In my express entry profile i can see only points for my master's degree,but no points for my bachelor degree.
How come?
Can someone explain why?

This is my whole info:
Overall Score is 414
Federal Skilled Worker: Met
CRS - Human Capital - Age 110
CRS - Human Capital - Level of Education 135
CRS - Human Capital - First Official Language Proficiency 119
CRS - Skill Transferability - Education 25
CRS - Skill Transferability - Foreign Work Experience 25

As you can see i only got 135 which is the points for master's degree.in my WES application I've sent both my bachelor and master's degree for evaluation.and both got evaluated.

Your understanding is incorrect.

You get the CRS points of Education for only your highest degree i.e. Master's degree in your case.

From your scores, it looks that you have missed to obtain CLB 9 scores in IELTS i.e. L 8 R 7 W 7 S 7
Once you obtain these scores, then your CRS score will increase by another 58 points from your existing score. This will fetch you ITA.

Kindly reappear for IELTS and score CLB 9 scores.

There are many people on this forum who took 3 to 4 attempts in IELTS and scored CLB 9 equivalent scores and today they already have PR.
All the best.

yes.such a bad luck for my writing (6.5) if they only could give me 7.
I'm afraid to ask for remark and it won't change.
Probably i have to retake the exam for only 0.5.
Such a cruel world we live in.

The world was not cruel because I was on the same boat two months ago. I did my IELTS again and got 7.0 in my writing. I just submitted my application.

Forgot about getting your writing remarked. Study hard and take the exam again. Good luck.

Hello guys, I have BS in electrical engineering with 1 year experience and MS in Telecommunications with no experience. Can I still claim points for my 1 year experience as its not compatible with my Masters degree title?
Assistance is appreciated.

Your education and experience don't need to be related, so yes you can claim the points.

Hello friends,
I would like to apply for Canada visa through Express Entry. However, I do not have any bachelor degree and my highest academic level is high school diploma, besides I finished some pilot training and I hold CPL/IR licenses but these licenses are not equivalent to any Academic level.

Now, I got an offer from a university in Malaysia to take a Master's degree in Business and marketing field (I have 5 years experience as a marketing director).
I want to know if I finish this program (Master's degree), Will CIC Canada accept this Master's degree as the highest level of my education ?, Even though I do not hold any undergraduate degree's.

Your answer and comments are highly appreciated.

Hi everyone

I wanted to run this with you, I get that you get a good score for having a masters from Canada. I have a degree in biotechnology earned outside Canada. Can I get points for my bachelors if I do ECA and it get approved as being equivalent to Canada's standards?
