Hi all,

I have almost 4 years of experience in IT and have a masters degree in engineering and one year UK experience. I don't have any job offer in Canada. I'll take IELTS and try to get good score (above 8 ). Will I be eligible with all these? I'm 26 years old and single. I tried some unofficial calculator and points came as 456.

You'll most likely be eligible to apply. Whether you'll have enough points to actually be selected is an entirely different matter.

I think maximum I can go for is 456 points since I don't have canada work experience or any degree.

In recent months only those with more than 480 points have been selected under FSW / Express Entry. You should look into the Provincial Nomination programs.

Thank you for your response. Is there any wiki or any information based on points and eligibility on our forums? I'm a complete beginner and have no idea where to start with. Thanks in advance!

There's no wiki. Best resource is the CIC web site. If you haven't done so already, plan to spend a few days reading through all of the information there: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/apply.asp
