Hi My college is in the list of colleges approved by AIU(Association of India universities) & NBA which gives the PGDM degree - master's degree equivalency status. I've send WES Canada the email attaching the same links. Did anyone got their PDGM (1yr) corrected to Master's degree after submitting AIU certificate to WES ?

Hi there,
I doubt that will work because the link below does not speak of credit card and bank account statement submissions.

would request some veterans to weigh in on this.
I am actually kinda surprised that it took this long for the CRS to be at 470s cut-off. Being 28-29 years old, 5-6 years of work experience, master degree, and advanced level of English doesn't seem that impossible to me. Might be totally off tho lol..
We mustn't forget that Express Entry is a relatively young immigration program.. only started towards the end of 2015 I think? So for the first 3 years or so, it was less well-known and not many applied who were young and had a masters degree. In the last two years, this has changed dramatically as more people realized the benefits of migrating to Canada.
From what I can see, another degree or diploma should fetch you another 30 odd points. It need not be a 2 year plus program either. I am assuming you have a single university bachelor's degree. Please check the CRS calculator to confirm.
If true, and given that you are still in your early thirties, do consider adding a diploma. You have already nailed French on your own. That's harder than earning another degree while time is still on your side.
Thanks for encouragment and advise. You see, I have always aimed for Quebec and given the fact that Quebec program has made a huge turn towards applicats who are already in Quebec I have just recently decided to try the Federal program. It seems that my investigations were not thourough enaugh because up until recently I though that Field of study matters in Federal program (as it does in Quebec). In fact, only the level of education matter which is not bad considering that I really can invest some time and resourses into getting another post graduate diploma. Plus, I still have room to improve languages.
It seems I misunderstood the CRP in a way that I mixed CRP with program specific points. What I mean is that Federal Skilled Worker stream has cut-off of 67 points and having second language nailed to C2 will not give you more than 4points, while nailing C2 in a second language will always land you quite substantional amount of CRP.
I hope my way of thought was clear. In short, thanks for advise and ecouragment, it seems that 480+ is in fact doable ever for me.
If you are considering post graduate programmes including Masters, Quebec is an excellent place to target. Most of the colleges are subsidized by the Quebec govt, and it won't cost you much to get a 12-month degree.
Prediction - August19, 2020:
If it is a CEC/PNP draw (70% chance)
PNP/CEC draw: 448 cut off
If it is an all program draw (30% chance)
All program draw: 474 cut off
I think they will keep alternating draws for a while.
It interesting because there will be a heavy influx of PNP in the next few months. If they keep the alternating draws, it will help the general draw not to shoot up.
What are the thoughts of everyone else. Should they fully resume all program or keep alternating?
They should resume all program...
Even though some 2,000 PNP NOIs were given out over a week or two, the nominations will be spread out much more. I don’t think the PNP number will rise above 700-800 profiles in the pool between fortnightly draws, because of the staggered way in which people submit their documents to the province.
Last year also, we had the same spate of nominations with Ontario and Saskatchewan inviting a number of people in a short period of time, but the pool number didn’t rise above the level I mentioned.
So all programs draw cutoff shouldnt go beyond the early 470s even when the late July PNPs start getting nominated.
Guys, I've been waiting in the pool since May 2020. What are the chances of AINP and OINP? My CRS score is 453. Added points after my sister lands in Canada and my birthday, will be 463 (september).The FSW draws seem like a slim possibility... What are my options?
Job offer?
Further studies?
IELTs again?
NOC 0124
Masters ECA from WES
Age 33 (turning 34 in September)
LRWS 8, 8.5, 7, 8 (valid till May 2021)
Checked all the boxes for provinces in the express entry profile, as well as the last option 'all provinces'.

Study french. With the right strategy, you can achieve +42 points, or even more (but it could take a little bit more than the expire date of your IELTS), which would most certainly solve your problem (even if you turn 34 or 35 years).
Even if it's a PNP followed by CEC, I don't think that the score would go below 440 as most of the IELTS centers are now open in Canada. I wouldn't surprise even if it is more than last CEC draw's cutoff score.
