I only filled in the appropriate part on the form concerning intent to reside in Ontario. I have no previous ties to Ontario. But I showed them that I had started applying for a jobs in Ontario and had contacted a professional body in Ontario wrt my profession. No further evidence has been asked till now.

I remember someone posting a sample letter of intent somewhere on this forum. Try to seek some information from the net about why you want to reside in Ontario (e.g. availability of jobs in your field, education for your kids, milder climate compared to other provinces, local communities that you can relate to, friends/relatives in Ontario, etc.) and explain how they genuinely meet what you are looking for and how you can contribute to the local community.

Good luck!
Thank you for your advice. I started to draft the letter. I'll add your suggestions.

You at least you have the tax income doc and I think you can give it to them explaining why paystubs are not available. I HAVE NONE OF THESE:(
However I wonder whether I can ask my employer to produce them. Would they be acceptable? Obviously they would not show the correct issue dates.
Seniors please help here!!!!
Why your paystubs are not available? Is it required for current or previous job? Try to explain in the letter/

Was your salary paid to a bank at that time? Can you get a copy of the statement from the bank? It will prove that you were getting regular salary.

Yes the salary was paid to the bank. I am now in touch with the bank so they can release a stamped statement. I've also contacted my employer. They say they can try and write the pay slips. I'm hoping to receive these two documents and submit them together for OINP cross checking...

As far as I know, the children do not have to take xray and urine test, hence the fee would be lower. The adults should take all blood test, xray, urine test and see the general doctor for the assesment of eyesight, weight, height, ect...

Yes, thank you :)
I thought blood test covers other possible problems such as diabetes or cholesterol as well, this is quite a simple blood test. (I have some congenital heart abnormality that has not caused any trouble for me yet but might in the future, so I'm a bit concerned about the medical check.)

Hopefully everything is gonna be fine for you :)

Salut Mooncef et Bienvenue dans la "piscine" (ahahah)
Voici un petit recap de ce dont tu as besoin pour remplir les conditions de l'Ontario Immigration Program pour French Speaking Skilled Worker

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/language/charts.asp

French : CLB 7 - looking at your marks, you should be good
Comprehension ecrite : score 278/300 niveau C2 10 --> equivalent to CLB 10
Comprehension orale : score 343/360 Niveau C2 10 --> equivalent to CLB 10
Expression ecrite : score 344/450 niveau B2 7 --> equivalent to CLB 7
Expression orale : score 361/450 niveau C1 8 --> equivalent to CLB 8

English: CLB 6 - looking good as well
R:7 --> equivalent to CLB 9
L:5.5 --> equivalent to CLB 6
W:6.5 --> equivalent to CLB 8
S : 8.5 --> equivalent to CLB 10

2 - NOC must be 0, A or B : work for 1 year

5 - Be eligible for Foreign Skill Worked Program (under CIC)

Now what to do ?

2 - Wait and hope for an invitation from Ontario Province to apply for OINP FSSW - it normally comes few days after you created your EE profile. Note : ensure your job bank profile is ACTIVE and linked to your EE account
3 - Ensure your profile in Express Entry Pool is properly updated (eg put FRENCH as your first language, and ensure you have selected ALL province / ONTARIO province for your preferred destination)
4 - read read read more the forum if you need help
5 - post if need be :)

Good Luck !
