does any of minimum requirement expire ? such language or experience
Experience has to be from the past 10 years.
It could also be that you had a birthday that affected you eligibility scores.

Hi,
medicals are actually done before submitting, just like you have done. You can actually submit without a medical report.

IRCC expect to process the majority of application within 6 months but could take less or more depending on your specific case.

All the best

Thanks for your reply.... What were the status changes on your profile you saw on the CIC website over the past 2 months ??

AOR email is something that you would receive one you apply.

What other status on the website did you see ?

What about interviews.....is it case to case ?

Awaiting your reply.

And Good luck to you.

2yrs post secondary diploma is the equivalent of my bachelors degree in my country. I even tried to re-assess my application and it shows I am eligible, got 72pts in fsw assessment grid. What could be wrong?
But is it equivalent to a canadian degree or post secondary canadian diploma?

Not so good news for my application. After waiting for 4 months, got a message that we are not eligible for express entry and asked to check the attachment for more details. But the attachment is blank, anyone else experienced the same before? What should I do now, how can I know the reason for rejection and also is there any use if I re-apply?

Dear Seniors,

Ill be providing the following as proof of employment. please be kind enough to advice if anything else is required.

1. Reference letter from HR: Includes everything except for Supervisor Details and Number of hours per week as it is against company policy. However, they have mentioned that I am a Full-time Permanent Employee.
2. Salary Confirmation letter
3. Six months salary slips
4. A reference letter from a colleague:
stating my number of hours per week and my supervisor's details. this will be signed only by my colleague.

Do I have to get a letter from my Supervisor as well? I would prefer not to due to obvious reasons.
Further, do I have to provide an LOE or are these documents straight forward enough for the VISA Officer?
Your advice is highly valued. thanks in advance

I haven't seen any yet. Hopefully soon.

Read this post on the stages an application goes through:

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/aor-april-2016-join-here.405705/page-25#post-5254511

With regards to interviews, its very rare to be called for one. I have actually only heard of 3 people who were called for interviews. So there is less than a 5% chance of being called.

Good luck to you too!

Hi,

1) It is optional for your spouse to take the IELTS test and have an ECA done, however, it contributes a total of 40 points to your score.
2) You have the option of applying with a non accompanying spouse, however, it may take time for you to be able to sponsor her once you are in Canada. Furthermore, you will still be required to include her in your funds, present her passport, do her medicals and police clearance.

All the best

Hi,

So sorry about your application.

The message should not be blank, it must be a technical fault. You can raise a CSE asking for the letter to be resent, and you should also order GCMS notes before re-applying. These will give you detailed information on how your case was handled.

All the best

Hi,

The truth is anything that is not in the exact format allows the Officer to use his own discretion. So although these documents look okay, you would need a good LOE for it.

4) A letter from your supervisor would have been much better that a letter from a colleague. Anyway, make sure you get it notarised to add legal validity.

All the best

Thank you Tanaka for the reply.
I am sorry, can you please guide me how to raise CSE and also about ordering GCMS notes?

Thanks in advance!

Hi - I need to get the reference/ skills certificate from my previous employer, but the HR is asking for manager endorsement. My managers have left the organization, can someone suggest on the options that i have. Can i get a letter from my colleagues whom i have worked in the previous organization? If yes, do i need to get the same notarized? I am currently based out of India and the notary is asking for the presence of my friend who is endorsing the letter?

Can please someone help?

P.S. got the invite to apply, preparing documents for submission.

Regards
V
