Dear Legalfalcon.

I didn't upload the blank back side of my PCC which has a small seal of foreign ministry attestation. Will this create a major problem? I am 160 days from AoR. Currently my file is at a local visa office.
No need and no need to worry.

Hi @legalfalcon

I have a Parent sponsorship question (not sure if you specialize here as well), I tired looking on the Family Sponsorship forums but didn't see anything about it. Is it possible to sponsor a parent along with an adopted sibling on the same application? The sibling is 15 years old.
The applications will be filed separately. For parents and grand parents the IRCC invites application every year and only 10,000 or so are selected for it. This is because parents and grand parents are eligible for super visa which allows them to stay in Canada for unto 2 years on the visa.

See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/spouse.asp

Hello legalfalcon I have a schengen visa on my passport which was cancelled without bias because of a spelling mistake and another one was issued in place of that. Is it mandatory to include that will providing Passport details or I can ignore that page?
You should include it, and it will not have any impact. This is because if IRCC does a search and stumbles in they system you being issued 2 visas and one being cancelled, they will have to probe, why it happened. Instead provide it and explain it in LoE, will help your application.

@legalfalcon

Hey man,
I submitted my application for PR a few days back. Couple questions:
  1. I have received a 'Confirmation of Application Transmission' message. It's not the same as AOR, right? How long does it usually take to receive AOR from when we submit?
AoR will take 1-3 days. In you don't receive it, then there could be technical snag, so raise a CSE for that and ask.
  1. My passport is due to expire in August 2018, earlier than the reports of my medical exam. When, would you say, is the right time to renew my passport during this entire process? Right now/After PPR/After stamping?
Renew your passport now and update it with IRCC. If you renew it later, after PPR, then you will have more issues and you only get 30 days to send your PP.
Thanks!

Dear Legalfalcon
I am not claiming points for my spouse education? Would it be ok to take his education out of the application so I won't have to upload his degrees which has name difference/headache issues?
YEs. Simply answer no to education questions. However, in the personal history you will have to state what your spouse was doing in the last ten years, if your spouse was a student.

Rabat, the capital of morocco, we have a visa office here.
If your file is in LVO, then most likely your eligibility is cleared. However, to be sure you should order GCMS notes to be sure. Alternatively, you can just wait it out. The GCMS notes will help you know what is happening with your application and what all stages of the the application you have passed.

Hy legalfalcon, I am claiming my work exp under NOC 4031/4032. I dont have B.Ed degree I had 2 yr bachelor degree when I started working as a teacher. And I completed 2 yr masters degree as well while working also.

Iqas deemed my education 2 yrs bachelors (before starting work) + 2 yrs masters (after starting work) combinely as 4 yrs bachelors in canada.

My bachelors major were accounts and business and masters major was economics.

So my questions are as follows.

Q1. I dont want to work as a teacher in canada as I know it requires B.Ed and further license as well I will try to find some job related to my education there. But I just want to use my work exp under express entry for points and eligibility as it is not illegal to work as a teacher in my country without B.Ed And I have all exp letters so can I claim my work exp points?


Q2. Date XYZ first became qualified to practice in this occupation
If the "primary occupation" is:
a qualified trade (four-digit code begins with 632, 633, 72, 73, 82, 92), this is the date they became qualified to practice on their own in Canada. (For example, when they moved from apprentice to being a licensed tradesperson.)
any other job, this is the date they first obtained the minimum education or training stated in the NOC description. (Note: if the NOC only states high school, this is the date they graduated.)

Which date should I write on it as my 2 yrs bachelors was completed in march 2015 and then I started working. And finished my 2 yrs masters in april 2017. And do the above paragraph mention that we should have to be qualified for the job we are doing? as I am no lawyer or doctor which requires specific degree.

Thanks

Heartiest Congratulations on getting your application approved!! This is great news!!

Just send an email at the id you have in your PPR giving them the explanation that your passport needs to be renewed, and they will extend the deadline. Not a big issue.

Send the email now, since it takes them a week or longer to respond on some occasions. Make sure that in the email you mention the date before which you will not be able to send the passport.
Hello Legalfalcon,

AOR : July 09, 2017
PPR confirmation email : August 09, 2017

I have now received a extension in passport submission deadline.
I hope I can now simply submit my renewed passport to VFS for visa stamping or do I need to update my new passport to CIC before submitting.

Thanks!!
