ok.. so i am a bit confused now.. i have pictures print in the size of 35*45 however, the soft copy photographer gave me seems to be of bit larger size (may b passport size), which picture should i upload?
Stick with 35x45 if you have that already. No need to get confused.

should i scan the 35*45 one and then upload it or use the soft copy as provided by the photographer?
The soft copy. The scanning requirements are different and little tricky to follow.
If you have soft copy then just attach the .jpg file.

Hello,

A query regarding POF, I have made a sell of jewellery asset and the money available through the sell will be used by me for POF.
The jeweller has given a sell certificate on his letter head of the sell made.

Will that be shown as documentary evidence for the POF ? It's around 30% of fund value of POF.

Senior members can you help with your advise ?

There is a Proof of Funds thread specifically dedicated to questions on PoF.
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/proof-of-funds-express-entry.263315
I think you should ask this query there.
AFAIK, you need to mention these details in the LoE and submit the proof of funds in the PoF section PDF.

Hi

Could you please advise on how to proceed on my situation
I worked for CSC , then I joined TCS and currently working in Deloitte.
1. I don't have the official badge of first company, and Should i be getting both colleague's and manager's signature. It's difficult for me to obtain first company's manager's signature
2. Where does he should sign(bottom corner of the printed page?)
3. Is business card mandatory, is there any alternate for it, as I may not be able to get business cards of people from first company

Please suggest,

Thanks

No problem. Try to provide the business card of your current company atleast.
2. Where does he should sign(bottom corner of the printed page?) Yes.
3. Is business card mandatory, is there any alternate for it, as I may not be able to get business cards of people from first company
Here, the whole idea is to show CIC that employee signing your letter is also an employee of the company. If you can show some other proof that (s)he is an employee that is ok too. In case there is no other proof or you are not able to then atleast show the proof of your current company employees.
Please suggest,

Thanks

Thank you so much for this concise list.

To make it a more generalized list, I guess we may need to add:
  1. Marriage certificate
  2. Children's birth certificates
  3. Any other certificate such as Death/Divorce/Adoption etc.

Thanks for the excellent post. Adding myself to it :)

Two qs:

1- What do you mean by scanning 'last page' of the passport. Mine is blank so confused how does it add value?
2- I know it goes without saying but I should also scan all the passport pages containing travel history from 'both old+new' passport?

Thanks!

For proof of funds-
I have a bank account which is joint account with my father. Will that work?
if not, can I open a new account in my name and transfer the funds from that account into the new one?
is the 6 month statement mandatory? because if I am opening a new account now, it obviously wont have a 6-month statement.

Well..months after getting the ITA (in May) and to-fro questions/answers sessions with seniors (@DelPiero07 thank you!) and incredible help from @legalfalcon, I have at-last completed my documentation and finally ready for the post ITA document submission.

I believe I have done all documentation properly and as suggested by the seniors but again you can never be too careful when it comes to the nifty PR rules and documentation protocols.

The reason I am presenting this information as a thread and not as a post is so that the new ITA candidates can get help from this thread straight away and they don't have to search for some specific post to find answers to their most common queries.

Furthermore, the seniors ( @DelPiero07 & @legalfalcon and several others) don't have to repeat each and everything again to the fresh candidate, not for the common questions at least.

@legalfalcon - If you can spare sometime from your pet thread, kindly see if everything is in order.

1. Travel Document
Submitting scans of:
  • Passport first & last page. Since No travel history.
Is the doc Notarised : No

2. Proof of Medical
Submitting scans of:
  • Medical information sheet shared by Hospital.
Is the doc Notarised : No

3. Education
Submitting scans of:
  • Provisional degree
  • Bachelor degree
  • WES ECA report
  • IELTS report.
I am also submitting one notarised affidavit for name discrepancy as my degree doesn't contain my surname.
Are the doc Notarised : No except the affidavit which is notarised.

4. Proof of Employment
Submitting scans of:
  • Job offer
  • Promotion letter
  • Latest compensation letter
  • Official proof of employment letter (not in IRCC mandated format)
  • My official badge and business card
  • Latest 3 months salary slips
  • Proof of employment letter, in IRCC mandated format, signed by colleague
  • Colleague official badge and business card
  • Proof of employment letter, in IRCC mandated format, signed by manager
  • Manager official badge and business card
Are the doc Notarised : No except the letters signed by the colleague and manager

5. Police Clearance Certificate
Submitting scans of:
  • Police clearance certificate report shared by the Passport office (PSK)
Is the doc Notarised : No

6. Proof of Funds
Submitting scans of:
  • Balance certificate shared by bank on official letter head
  • Check used while getting funds from my father
  • Notarised gift deed for the funds shared above
  • 6 months stamped and signed bank statements
  • 6 months salary slips (reflected in the above bank statements)
The balance certificate from the bank contains:
  • My name
  • Account number
  • Type of Account
  • Date since the account was opened
  • Any loan/credit card payment pending on my name
  • Phone number of the bank's customer care
  • Email of the bank's customer care
  • Bank address as printed on the letter head
Are the doc Notarised : No except the gift deed.

7. Digital Photo
Submitting:
  • Digital photo clicked by professional photographer 50 x 70 mm (~150kb)
Is the doc Notarised : NA

8. Letter of Explanation
Submitting PDF LoE explaining:
  • The notarised proof of employment I am submitting since my company doesn't give the employment proof in the IRCC mandated format
  • The details of the affidavit submitted because of the surname discrepancy in the education degrees
  • The details of the check submitted due to the gift deed transfer
Is the doc Notarised : No


Can the Seniors (& @DelPiero07 @legalfalcon) please spare some time to review the document list above and guide if I am missing something here.

This will also help most if not all new candidates in their post ITA documentation process.

Thank you.

Sorry for the late reply. Here is the template that I made for the name discrepancy. Attach the scan of this affidavit in your education PDF and also to make sure nothing goes wrong, get the xerox of certificates stamped from notary and scan and attach them too.
