slide 1: Auditors and accountants drawn by Nova Scotia from
the Express Entry pool
The Government of Nova Scotia conducts the first round of invitation of 2019 issuing
invitations to Express Entry candidates having work experience as financial auditors or
accountants. The invitations to apply ITAs were issued on January 24
th
through the
Labour Market Priorities Stream launched last year. These invitations are further
utilized for a nomination for permanent residence
Through the Labour Market Priorities Stream Nova Scotia’s Office of Immigration is
able to search eligible candidates from the federal Express Entry pool with work
experience in specified occupations.
Express Entry were required to have at least five years of work experience in
the National Occupational Classification NOC 1111 — Financial Auditors and
Accountants.
Those Express Entry candidates were selected who had submitted their profiles on or
after July 1 2018 and they had an Express Entry ranking score in the range from 400
and 450 among other criteria.
The most recent Federal Express Entry draw only invited candidates with scores of 443
or above whereas Nova Scotia invited candidates with scores as low as 400.
The provincial nominee streams can help Express Entry candidates with lower scores to
achieve their goal of permanent residence. Express Entry candidates with a low ranking
score usually below the cut-off in recent Express Entry draws can manage to get
selected through this route.
While Express Entry profiles are valid for up to 12 months it is worth noting that Nova
Scotia only considered those submitted on or after July 1 2018 in the January 24 draw.
slide 2: With a provincial nomination Express Entry candidates are provided an additional 600
points towards their Express Entry ranking score effectively assuring an invitation to
apply for Canadian permanent residence in a subsequent Express Entry invitation
round.
Other requirements for the Express Entry candidates selected in the latest Labour
Market Priorities draw were
• a bachelor’s degree OR have completed a program of three or more years at a
university college trade or technical school or another institute.
• a Canadian Language Benchmark score of 7 or higher in English or French for
speaking listening reading and writing.
• letters of reference from employers to demonstrate proof of a minimum of 5 years
of work experience in NOC 1111.
