Have you looked at the CIC website? If not start there, it will answer the questions you asked:

If that experience was in Skill Type 0, Skill Level A or B, you will get points for that. Check the Canadian National Occupational Classification to make sure.

But before you even get to that point, you need to select the category you are going to apply for. This may mean that you have experience in one of the currently listed jobs. Also note, that this list may change over the next few weeks, as the CIC is currently in consultation for that.

Thank u Ray for being so kind.


It seems like my experience will definitely fall in category B at least and If I count my experience in pak as well then It may fall in A. I have been involved in Book Keeping in pak for four years but I lost those letter while applying for HSMP.

Anyway in terms of category it will be " Federal Skilled Worker Program: Arranged Employment " rite. or you meant something else by " select the category ".

There are several catagories you can apply under. One of them is Arranged Employment. So I am assuming you already have a job offer from a Canadian company that has been approved by the Canadian government?

1: How to Pay fee. Should I send Pay order along with application.
2: I am currently residing in Dubai. Abu Dhabi ofice not handling immigration matters. Should I send the application to canada address or London office.

I will appreciate if somebody can help.

The application should have an address on it, where it needs to be sent. As far as I know, all Federal Skilled Worker application first go to Canada and if you meet the points, they are sent to the appropriate consulate for processing.

I think, you need a bank draft for fees, but method pf payment should also be on the application.

In this case a consultant can guide you very well in a better manner...like the Goldman Associates (http://immigrationtocanada.org/) hope your problem gets solved...

your birth certificate is a required document.. a quick question from my side.. what job category have you listed your experience as belonging to.. since IT and banking doesn't come under the category of jobs that are part of the Labour Market Opinion.. (LMO)
