Hi Guys, I have received my ITA and I am currently filling the express entry application. I have a query. While I was filling EE profile in 'preview my score' I got a higher score(474) than the actual score(466). The difference was due to my education. I have completed my master but for this, ECA has evaluated as Post graduation diploma one year. So in the Level of Education should I give Masters and in the

"Level of education (Canadian equivalent) shown on Education Credential Assessment (ECA) report Your ECA report will tell you if your foreign education is equal to a completed Canadian degree, diploma or certificate. You must have the results of an ECA report to answer the question. If you are not sure what your result was, visit our website to understand what your ECA report results mean:"

should I give one year programme at university? Is this correct ?

Please check your ECA evaluation report for bachelor's and masters. If they have considered it as three/four year bachelor's + post graduation one year diploma then you need to mention level of education as "two or more certificates, diploma's or degrees".

See if that matches the actual score else you might want to cross validate and check for the gaps whatsoever.

I also have the same question, 6 days left for timeline to complete
I had asked this question sometime back,,,someone posted this answer:

"It says "Your application is taking us longer than usual to process. About 20% of our applications are more complex to process".

But I believe this % is well over 20%."

no update after MEP and ADR (schedule A BGC IMM5669 form ) in December 2018, only 5 days left for 6 months timeline. ordered GCMS notes on 5th april. Will IRCC know it immediately that I have raised request for GCMS notes? or they are going to laze around for even longer time?

Notes do not delay application, do not worry. Do you know your visa office? You may have a slow visa office. Also most people get ppr without getting any updates other than mep, you may get it the next week do not worry, current trend is 170-190 days according to myimmitracker

Thanks for the info, IRCC should stop issuing new ITAs until they complete processing the existing applicants. also I heard that Oct, Nov and Dec are the worst months to submit applications as it is holiday season and sever winter in canada, so these 3 months applications will become backlog applications by default

They are still processing a large number of applications in 6 months and it’s commendable.
How about they stopped issuing ITAs before you received your invitation?
Also, I seriously doubt if severe winters would impact processing times as that’s normal in Canada and you too should brace yourself for this.

Even I have submitted that document along with pay slips...my salary too under tax exempt..so no income tax filed. Hope and wish you ll go through all these and ppr soon.
The company has been around since 1995 and it has a website, facebook page, twitter page etc. Thought I don't have a LinkedIn account. The letter I provided was very detailed and it included everything as per the format.

Guess, I will just have to provide them with my 6 months pay slips and maybe ask the company for a tax exempt letter. Hopefully, that helps.
Hey I am not sure if this will help .
But when I was preparing my documents my agent said that only one of the two is required, either pay slips or IT returns. And they suggested Pay slips.
So in your case I recommend you submit payslips of not only 6 months but all the months you have worked with the company. At least for all the years you have shown your experience of

If these months are the problem, how come March guys are getting PPRs. It's time to admit that Express Entry is a very inefficient one. But that's the only we have to reach our goal. So it's just keep waiting. I am in IP1 still (Nov 1 aor)

Almost 9 months winter in North America and Canada. Unless the weather is worst, nothing wont stop them. And we too gonna adapt that weather in near future. My friends and relatives said that Tuesday to Thursday they work rigorously. So in December there is winter break. Apart from that there is no reason that applications get slow due to weather. Be hopeful.

Hi
I am not sure whether this will help or not in your case but I have heard people who are unable to provide with salary slips or bank statements they can ask for a *salary certificate* from the HR.

To,
Blah blah
The correct format of the letter you can see


This is to certify Mr. ___ has worked with us from ___ to ___ as a ____. His emolument details for the tenure are as below:
Then a table comes
First column is the period (02.05.2018 to 01.05.2019) and the second column will be emolument paid (INR) and this column will be baiscaly amount you got that year.

You can take this on a company letter head and they cannot say no to this document because you are just asking them to write down the total amount they gave you.

Also just to make help them more go to your salary account and take out hard copy of your bank statements and highlight that transaction where you received your salary and calculate it and attached the print outs with this letter and give it to them and tell them I am makimg your life easier you just need to copy this letter on a letter head and give me and as a proof I have attached the bank statements you can verify the exact amount you paid.

I am not sure whether this is making sense to you or not but I feel this way IRCC will understand that you actually got the money and you worked for that organization.
Thanks
