Hi everyone, I hit OINP for FSW under the health category. My ECA says mom comparable to completed Canadian education credentials. It also says equivalent to three years of hospital study and training. Can I be refused ITA because of this?

I just got ITA and my passport is about to expire in 5.5 months. I need guidance should I apply for the renewal of my passport and then apply for ITA or do I have to apply now with the same info that I have provided with my current passport which is about to expire in 5.5 months?
Kindly please guide me about this.
Read the past forum threads here. You will be able to update your passport later if you read those. You can even go as far as sending a new passport after PPR too. But carefully read through those threads to understand potential limitations of doing so e.g. check if your validity of CoPR would be less as it can potentially be tied to your passport's expiry date.

Yes.

You might want to make your post clearer if you want more helpful answers...

Hello guys,
What are your views of people using Canada PR/ Citizenship as a way to get into or (H1B) backup for the US or another country?
Is it ethical or unethical?
On one hand, Canada PR and citizenship means that we make a promise to live and build a life in Canada permanently.
On the other hand, we get the PR and passport as economic transactions from our CRS points and tax contributions to the government during our working years.

Not unethical. Just a life choice. At the end, no one will come to you/your family and feed you for your patriotism if things go south.

In the coming months, IRCC will complete an assessment of Post-Graduation Work Permit Program criteria and begin introducing reforms to better calibrate it to meet the needs of the Canadian labour market, as well as regional and Francophone immigration goals.
“International students are talented, bright and deserving of a positive experience as they pursue their studies in Canada. We will continue to improve Canada’s International Student Program by protecting students and weeding out those who try to take advantage of them. Whether an international student stays and works after graduation or returns home, we want their time as a student in Canada to have been beneficial to their growth and aspirations.”
– The Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship

Any ideas ?
looks like its tied to immigration goals..

I use "old growth" (I will call them OG from now on) Canadian citizens as benchmark.

Is it unethical for OG Canadian Citizens to move to USA for business or job reasons? Nope!
Do OG Canadian Citizens make this implicit promise to live and work in Canada by virtue of being born here? Nope! That will be absurd to even think about that!

So it is not immoral or unethical for me too if I wish.

Remember folks, do not try to be more Canadian than OG Canadians.

Marc Miller loves spending capital on announcements that could be emails.
And top of it the press release is from Brampton,ON where reside most of the owners of those diploma mills & the owners of the agencies who run those massive immigration campaigns in rural India luring poor innocent students. Talking about scrutinizing them from their own backyard, the news sounds totally authentic.

I might never vote for Liberals as long as Marc Miller remains in that party.
Although, I guess there will be a day when I will get tired of Conservatives too lol
What about PPC? They seem like they will really fix most of Canada's problems. Very hard for them to get seats though, no one takes them seriously enough.

Maxime Bernier's goals are as poorly thought-out. If you read through this garbage, it has no solutions: https://www.peoplespartyofcanada.ca/platform

As long as there's a concept of minimum wage and those minimum wages are being honoured(a little debatable, but largely it is being honoured), they should've been able to provide a decent living to Canadians. There's something clearly wrong with themselves and they need to look inwards. PP is hitting the right spot here as he's the only one talking about it.

The much bigger problem in Canada is greedy Canadians. People who are leveraging assets(housing, cars, food, etc) to the point of abuse aren't outsiders, they are predominantly Canadians. It is really weird that no one is talking about these greedy citizens. Going behind an identifiable group that's weak is bad taste and shows a lack of understanding from these politicians.

At the end, it will take a very good lobbyist who has to be an economist(Maxime Bernier is a failed economist) + a visionary to solve these problems. None of these politicians are seasoned - they are still focusing on the symptoms. No one is really looking into the problems that are creating those symptoms.

If they don't have good politicians can't they have an EE stream for that also :p

It’s hilarious seeing the Liberals pivoting on immigration when they’re getting destroyed in polls. A year ago, they were accusing people, who were questioning the immigration numbers and the international student program, as “racist” and now, the entire public has caught on to their scam and have turned on them.
They have no direction - they are just saying whatever they can, doing whatever they can to get votes. Bad governance.
