Hello, thank you for your answers,

Yes, I've merged all these documents into one PDF. However, I've been reading in forums and Fb groups that it is necessary to scan a certified photocopy of each original document. Honestly, this gave me anxiety, I've been waiting for this for a long time and I don't want to waste this opportunity.

Could you please share your experience? Have you also sent on top of the original documents and their translations, a certified photocopy stamped by the translator?

One last question please, in my transcripts (that I sent along with the translations), it is mentioned "duplicate" and "certified true copy of the original", but I had them from my university and all of them contain real and original stamps of the university + Head + the vice-dean of my department. Basically, it's like an original document? no?

Shall I send something additional via webform or do you think that it's not necessary?

I'm really sorry for all these questions & big thank you for your time.

Have a wonderful day,
My advice has always been "Keep it simple" and provide what has been asked. One of the biggest myth / bad advice I have seen on these forums is "provide as much documentation as you can". This is not true. The more documents you provide which are unnecessary more time visa officer needs to spend to find out what he needs.

One example - there is a lot of advice here to provide all pages of passport where one has visa stamps, entry and exit stamps. The form clearly asks only for the bio pages of the passport and that is all I provided on the application and there were no issues.

For education I had only three documents - WES Copy, IELTS Result Copy and Degree Certificate. Think about it logically .. if they had to look at all the transcripts why would they ask you to send your transcripts to WES and get those evaluated?

Just keep it simple and you will be fine.

Hiiii guys
Same as ilikesnow, i am preparing for the next draw . I'm sorry for all thèse questions

Reached this morning the clinic and the only available slot is on the 10th of August ... Then i'll have to wait until september to schedule an appointement (god knows when ...they are not oppening the slot before september).
My questions are :
** Is it okay to make an upfront by 1 week ? How the clinic is going to send and link my report without an Ita ?

** Birth certificate of dependents are ready , mariage certificate as well...

** Ref letter is ready since the 10th of july (so 1 month and 7 days old) ..will this be an issue ,?? It will be a bit harsh to Ask for a New one :(

** When filling the post ITA forms which adress should we mention in adress History if we visited the family for 2months ? (While I was paying my rent in France )
Knowing that, i did mention in the "personal history " section that i visited family during the 2 months .And in the "Travel History" as well

** Which other docs can i prepare ?

Thank u sooo much for ur kind help and answers

hey guys need urgent help. one of my colleagues is planning on applying for PR. unfortunately his wife filed a frivolous harassment case against him in india just for pushing her against the wall - so obviously he will not be able to get a clean PCC. is it ok if he gets a notarized affidavit signed by a local constable he knows that he does not have any criminal charges and submit it in lieu of pcc. from my understanding a pcc can be issued by the local police. will his app get rejected?

Not only will his application get approved, he will also receive a bravery award from Trudeau himself on arrival for standing up against such injustice.

Congratulations!!!
There will be an option that says "supporting documents", that's where you upload your documents. Check and recheck the requirements (follow the instructions to the letter) and then recheck another 4 times before uploading. If you need anything, don't be coy.
Helloooo!

I already have a question about my Educational informations :)

This time do I need to declare every diploma (high school - - > bachelor - - > Master)? And not only the one for which I claim the points (Master)?

Hello yourself!!
The highest degree is what matters as you'll be claiming points for that. So if you have a Master's degree then you'll only be sending the ECA for that degree, along with a scanned copy of said degree and language test results (preferably as a single pdf, it makes the officer's job easier).

1. When you go for medicals, they will have your passport number, but what I fear is that they usually send results within a week of your evaluation, so I fear they may neglect to do so after your ITA unless you go and pester them. ;)
2. Great
3. Your reference letter has to have the required 3 years of experience, if it does I don't see a problem with submitting the one you got a month back. Other members please correct me if I'm wrong.
4. Your address is the one that you are a resident in. So, vacation doesn't count for anything.
5. You can scan your passport and get it ready, you can scan and put on a single pdf your degree, its ECA and language test results. You can do the same for your spouse if they have taken language tests. I would separate the two unless specified otherwise.

Med's Done....
In front

Just keep it simple and you will be fine.
I personally didn't attach any certified photocopies. I don't recall it being a requirement either, I believe you have done what they asked...... :)
Hello guys,

BIG thank you for your answers. Reading your replies definitely calmed me a bit.

Actually, I've sent my grades which by the way are written in French, everything except the name of the head and vice dean of my department + certified translation. I also sent my diploma (which are written in my native language except some phrases are in French) + certified translation. It's fine no? However, no certified photocopies whatsoever.

I've sent 3 diplomas (bachelor's, master's, and doctorate). Even though I should have provided the highest one only. As you said, what else can I do?

Hope it goes well and I don't get a rejection.

Thanks, apart from Upfront Medical and PCC, Is there anything else we should add to application to not expect any delay in Processing? I saw few people mentioning to add SCHEDULE A...
I think adding in Schedule A upfront is a good idea, especially if you have any history of visa/application refusal. I had a previous SINP refusal so I filled Schedule A upfront. I didn't get asked to submit it while my friends who didn't submit upfront had an ADR for it which delayed their PPR longer than mine.

Have a wonderful day,
My documents were in English and didn't need translation, so I can't help in that regard. Otherwise, everything you submitted seem about right. No need to add certified copies of documents you already provided originals for.

And yes, your anxiety is normal :).
