If you have a job offer from a recognized Canadian religious organization, then you may be
able to immigrate on the basis of such without the necessity of validation.
If you seek admission on the basis of your Architecture qualifications, you would be
stating that you intend to pursue this profession in Canada. Evidence of employability,
and that you had maintained your skills in the field may be a requirement in such a case.
