Express Entry Step by step instructions.

I received a new ITA recently after my previous application got cancelled due to a wrong document, I was wondering if it is acceptable to request the clinic to upload the same medical test results for the new application since it has been done within less than 12 months? anyexperience with that ?

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.

Hello! Everyone,

I hope all group members and their family members are well and safe in this Pandemic time.

I have some concerns regarding Immigration Canada that I will try to describe by my best effort, so somebody could understand and help me out.

I am living in Nova Scotia, Canada right now. I have applied for my wife's spouse visa from here in March 2020, which is still under review, from India. Now, as of 25th July 2020 onwards, I have accomplished my 1 Year Full-time Skill Work experience (NOC B category as per NOC Requirements), here in Nova Scotia, and become eligible to apply for 'Nova Scotia Nominee Program'.

But, I am worried about 2 things and need some advice regarding matter Such,

1> Should I wait for my wife's spouse visa file's decision before applying for NSNP Program.
OR
2> Should I apply for NSNP program with her while her file is 'going-on'

In either case, Could I make my Express Entry Profile with IRCC from now? as both, my wife & I have IELTS and ECA done already.

Could I please get any advice or suggestion related to my case, Please? That would be really really appreciated if so.

Thanks and Regards,
Parth Patel

Does it create any issue if someone gathered documents before ITA? like dates on reference letters? translation of documents?

No it doesn't. That's what most people like myself did. So for my previous work experience (not current job), I had all my references before hand.

Hi ,

I created expess entry profile and I am seeing that I'm not eligible for PNP. When I checked online the eligibility for PNP ,SNIP and others show that I'm eligible. My NOC is 2173 ,6.5 yrs of experience ,age below 30, IELTS clb8. Why I'm seeing the message that I'm not elligible in EE and how to proceed for PNP.
Please help!!

NO. Not a good idea at all. You cannot say you are single if you have a spouse and child. That is called misrepresentation and can get you a ban from Canada for several years. You must include them in your application and if granted a visa, you can choose when they arrive after you land, as long as it is within a year or prior to expiry of their passports, which ever is first.

I have a question on this, if someone could help clarify:

- If person A is confirmed for PR , does their spouse also automatically get PR status assuming you've entered their details in the application correctly?
- Is there any restriction on the spouse in terms of work permit etc. If so, why are some couples applying in such a way that both individuals are applying for EE.

In short can one of the couple apply to avail PR benefit for both?
