Hello, I sent my brother's employment letter as proof of Canadian residency. he however left his job in June 2018. Do I need to give this information as an update on my online application ?

Hi friends, I'm claiming points for my Masters degree which was in 2014. My bachelors degree was in 2004 and obviously over 10 years ago. Since my personal history is about the last 10 years, I hope it's not wrong to leave the bachelors degree out of my application completely?

It's all on the CIC site: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp

But...

(Please note that this info does not apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program)

1) Determine your eligibility by doing this CIC quiz http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/ee-start.asp

2) Get your language test(s) done. You must get at least CLB 7 in each of the four sections for the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) or Canadian Experience Class (CEC) streams. But getting CLB 10 gives you maximum points for language.

How does CLB match back to the language tests? That info is here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/language/charts.asp

3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp

4) Determine the code that best applies to you on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/noc.asp

The occupation must be NOC 0, A, or B for FSW or CEC.

5) When you have those in hand you create your express entry profile. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/profile.asp and register for the Job Bank http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/home-eng.do?lang=eng

You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/pool.asp

Of course, the more points you have the better. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer with a very hard to get Labour Market Impact Assessment http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp

For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.

6) Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following:

a) Have your application fee (C$550 each for principal applicant and spouse) and right of permanent resident fee (C$490 each for principal applicant and spouse) ready
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp

b) Identify how you will provide proof of funds http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp

c) check out what is required for the police certificates http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/security/police-cert/index.asp

d) find out how long it takes to get a date for the medical exam. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp

e) contact previous and current employers about them providing job letters. You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week. Work experience while you were a full-time student does not count.

f) research cities in the province(s) where you want to live.

Thank you for your valuable information sir

since you have a Masters, you get points for highest degree only...
if your masters was evaluated by ICAS or WES to be bachelors then you would have selected 2 x bachelors degree

Thank you very much for your answer. Can you please tell me I have done professional certifications in the field of Insurance, will I get any extra marks for that as well.

Hi Guys,
I've used the online assessment tool and only got 430 score with the IELTS target scores of S:7 W:7 L:9 R:9. My wife and I haven't taken the IELTS and due to take the exam this end of July. My question is, is there a chance that I'll be possibly given an ITA because I've noticed that lately the minimum scores are going higher and higher?

Thanks
John

Hi friends, I'm claiming points for my Masters degree which was in 2014. My bachelors degree was in 2004 and obviously over 10 years ago. Since my personal history is about the last 10 years, I hope it's not wrong to leave the bachelors degree out of my application completely?

Personal history is for last 10 years only and if someone for example has been working for last 10 years then it will show work related activity only.
Education in any case has a section of it's own where you can show Bachelor's, Masters etc. In other words do not worry if your PA is not including your education details as it is older than 10 years.

Not recommended, what if you get an ITA based on random info, how will you justify then? Wait for WES and IELTS before creating your EE profile.

Hi guys,

I am about to submit my Express Entry profile, and I am gathering all the supporting documents necessary. I got the Identity History Statement from the FBI and herein lies my question:

In October 2016, I was arrested in Los Angeles and charged with a DUI, and my court date was set for Jan 2017. My attorney convinced the District Attorney to drop my case and I never had to appear in court and all charges were dropped. (My Breathe Alcohol count was below the limit, I had not hit any person or property, I just got pulled over for driving with tinted windows).

Anyway, this arrest record shows up in the FBI document, and I am wondering if it will create any issues for me during my Canadian PR process. I have an official letter from the LA County stating that the court will not press any further charges (clean chit).

Please advise.
