Good luck to everyone for the next rounds.
We got an ITA with a score of 448.
Any idea how do i apply for police clearance in Maharashtra , India ? Is it through Passport seva or through maharashtra online website ?
Also how do we book for medical tests.
Thanks for your help !

We really need to be patient.
Maybe 2019 is our year.. hopefully they have a larger number of ITAs to send out which means bigger draws.
Let’s hope for the best
I have been patient since more than a year now....... my life is altogether dependent on this now. Many people won't understand and will be quick to criticise hence won't explain why. I was at 438 since March... just recently gave ielts again and upgraded the score to 441... now it's testing my patience since it been more than a year... would have been at a better place both personally and professionally if this would have ended this year...

Congrats on your ITA.

PCC should be applied through Passport Seva Kendra
You can call the Hospital Listed on CIC website for a medical test and book an appointment.

Hey @Tech_girl123

I know its easier said than done and I am sure you are the best judge of your situation. give the trend of CRS score draw's have been upwards and the score does not seem to reduce or be in favour of those above 440 below are my suggestions

if you are not going to lose any points for age, and have 2-3 years before you start losing points,
  • take up French and score the NLB 7
  • complete a postgraduate diploma relevant to your field of expertise (IGNOU) has great options and they are fairly inexpensive and recognized world wide.
  • I will not suggest taking another IELTS test because this test is biased AF. never know when the scores will be in our favour.
  • getting an extra 8-10 points you will definitely be well above 450 and have a very good chance at getting invited.
it is very easy to regret later when the time has run out and you can't take any decision to help your case positively.

I do not know french at all.. learning it and giving the exam will take another year i suppose.. although I am hardworking and completely confident
I can learn a new language but i have a time constraint here.

I have completed a PGDM but unfortunately, the institute is not ready to give me the degree before march, my insititue's degree is validated by IQAS so after that another 3 months. (That is if , they give me the degree by march... i have my doubts since they have been so slow in even replying on my emails)

I have maxed out on ielts since i got 998.5 8 last time.... so that's not an option now :)

you do not essentially need your degree for the PGDM - your provisional degree will work as well. that's what I submitted because my stupid college has the rule to issue degree certificates only on convocations. if you haven't tried this already then I would suggest taking the Provisional Degree route and explain to the IQAS/ WES that you have tried to get your degree certificate and the Provisional Degree is just as good at the moment.

as to french - no one actually knows the language and it sure has its intricacies. quite a lot of people I know have only prepped for it in less than 6 months and got a decent score to boost their CRS's.

WOW on that IELTS Score !!!

You will get ITA this round. Wait for it. It is the account creation date that’s taken into an account
