But to be honest I already knew that my profession wouldn't be on the list.
Looks like plan B (find a job) and plan C (marry a Canadian) for me!
Good luck to all who will be applying.

hello
sorry for you
satire - it's easier to get the PR, if you are a kitchen helper. which is also a cheaper way.

Re: FSW List Announced Today
thanks for your thanks too, sorry just saw this... Yes keep going, theres more than one way to get here

Back to the drawing board.
Circa £1,000 down and thoroughly < sniped > off. At least I got out of that lawyer situation before they bled me dryer than Pharaoh 's flip-flop.
Edit: Thank you to everyone on here who has taken the time to help me and answer my questions. If I can work out an alternative way in I'll probably be back to pester you all again at a later date.
Special mentions:

Re: FSW List Announced Today
Hey,
My main frustration is with their management and timing of customer (us) information, release, transparancy and expectation management. I think this is something we can all relate to when CIC themselves repeatedly tell us not to trust the information in the online tools. Their MIS systems need serious work. Secondly the minister seems oblivious of the planning, cost and time that has to go into preparing for an application such as IELTS for one - and that these things have to be organized well in advance. He may argue that with holding information helps us but it doesn't when it is drip fed to us as we can not effectively plan or schedule what we want to do.

As to the minister being oblivious, I was told on this forum (above) that it is not to CIC's advantage to release the info earlier. I do not know why, but well good luck with another way in.
Best,

Re: FSW List Announced Today
hello
I found this
# # #
"I submitted my BE, MBA and MS degrees to WES for course by course evaluation and paid their $160 fee. In return what I got was "MBA DEGREE HOLDS NO ACADEMIC VALUE - CASE CLOSED"
I asked WES, how can my case be closed when they have not provided me with evaluation for my BE and MS degree but they simply asked me to pay another $160 to get the other two evaluated.
Please avoid choosing WES under all circumstances for academic credentials evaluation. They are nothing but ripoffs and should be banned by all educational institutes and US authorities for treating their customers the way I have been dealt with. Thank you for your patient listening and hearing."

This is the company in USA - maybe the workers in Canada are hopefully not as unqualified.

You think that's bad, I shouted the exact same thing. I'm so desperate to emigrate I've gone all gay.
