Confused with documentation needed
We have finally bit the bullet and decided to try and immigrate to Canada based on hubbys skills. Quick low down on him.
46 years old
20+ years as a qualified Electrical engineer
IELTS booked for this coming Saturday
Now i need help.....We would like to go to Nova Scotia down the skilled worker route. Once IELTS results are in i understand we need to apply for express entry?
We would be going under NOC 7242 (Industrial Electrician).
Because hubby is old i understand this is a major issue so need to get as many points as possible, high IELTS score, ECA for his schooling up to sixth form as he did an apprenticeship after this? Job offer
Do i need to get his engineering certificates recognized? How do i get proof of certification?
Sorry for the 101 questions. Ive been researching since friday and still a bit clueless

I've move your post to our Immigration Forum so you get answers from people in the know
Regarding certificates he will need to obtain his Certificate of Qualification (C o Q) - challenging based on experience - from Nova Scotia (or whichever Province you want to move to) - once he has that it will increase your points and he will be able to apply under Express Entry Federal Skilled Worker (Trades)
The term "Electrical Engineer" is a protected profession, if he is an industrial electrician it's not the same thing. https://engineersnovascotia.ca/ https://www.jobbank.gc.ca/marketrepo...ts/17843/22390

Hi,
thanks for your reply. Yes I understand he wont be an Electrical Engineer in Canada, hence we are going down the Industrial electrician route.
Will look into CoQ as I kind of guessed this was needed
Thanks again!
