DO YOU QUALIFY

Most applicants for immigration to Canada qualify in the Skilled Worker category. There is also the Business Immigration category, which includes Investors, Entrepreneurs and certain Self-Employed applicants. You can read about all the categories at Canada’s Immigration Program. In this section, you can submit your personal information to me for an assessment of:

YOUR CHANCES OF QUALIFYING AS A SKILLED WORKER?

Occupation List or Arranged Employment Pre-requisites: November 28, 2008
The November 28, 2008 rule changes are applicable to any application filed after February 26, 2008. An Occupation List now governs who may apply as a Federal Skilled Worker who does not have an approved Canadian job offer. But, some applicants may be able to obtain a job offer, inwhich case, they can apply also and the procedures can be found at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who-employment.asp

Please complete the Personal Data Form below for my assessment of your chances. You should understand that only a Visa Officer can make a final decision on your application. Currently, there is a Pass Mark of 67 points, based on a selection grid that awards points for the following factors: Education, Language Abilities in English and/or French, Work Experience, Age, Arranged Employment and Adaptability.

Pass Mark is a Guideline
However, you should know that the Pass Mark is a Guideline for the Visa Officer. Under our Immigration Law, a Visa Officer can exercise his or her discretion, either to approve an applicant who scores less than the pass mark (positive discretion) or to refuse an applicant who scores the pass mark points or higher (negative discretion).

My preliminary assessment of your ability to possibly qualify for Canada is based on the information you provide on the following form.

If you are seeking to qualify as a Federal Skilled Worker, and do not already have a job offer arranged for you in Canada, then you will only be eligible to apply if you have worked for at least 12 months in the last ten years in one of the 38 occupations on the Occupation List. Please click on the this link to the Occupation List and ensure that you have worked in one of 38 occupations before submitting the form below to me for assessment.
