Can anyone please advise what value did they mention in proof of funds? We had mentioned around $ 19000 and now thinking of changing it to 0 for the final application as it is not required for CEC.
*** CEC - Draw 176 - PR Application Submitted - Wait Times + Further Discussion

You can make it 0 OR you can put a document in the POF placeholder to say you were invited under CEC and are not required to provide POF. You can quote / screenshot this web page to support your claims: https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1145&top=29
Is it okay to said unemployed when actually you work for part time and travel to back home. If not then what else we have?
If I can't have main duties from NOC on Employment verification (ex-employer won't write them) is CIC going to cut points that I claimed for international experience? Or I can be rejected because of this?
If you put 0 in POF, you won’t have a document placeholder for PoF. Just put your PoF explanation in the general LOE section at the bottom of the document checklist.
If IRCC can’t verify your duties, they would deduct points and your CRS will be recalculated.
you will be refused if:
“Accordingly, officers should refuse an application under section A11.2 if it is determined that
- at the time of the ITA or e-APR, the applicant did not or does not meet the MEC, which includes the requirements of the program to which they were invited to apply; or
- the applicant’s recalculated CRS score has fallen below that of the lowest-ranked candidate invited to apply in that round of invitations”

if after deducting CRS you still meet MEC and CRS is still higher than the cut off, your application will not be refused.
so calculate your CRS without the foreign work experience and see if it’s still above cut off. If you’re invited under CEC, you only need your 1 year Canadian work experience AND valid language assessment results (based on NOC) to meet MEC.
If yours get processed within 6 months, consider yourself lucky. Since the start of the pandemic, IRCC has been struggling to meet the standard processing timeline. There are still a lot of in-Canada applicants from Jan - June 2020 who have not received their COPRs. That’s why it’s a huge question how IRCC would be able to handle the sudden increase of applications, when there’s still a massive backlog from last year.
Ok, thank you. Do you maybe know why on document checklist I am asked for post secondary diploma? I claimed points for high school and have WES for it. I didn't say in my profile that I have anything else other then high school. Got ITA under CEC.
For CEC they say its 6 months however there are many other factors which influences the processing time.
- the type of application submitted
- if the application is complete
- how quickly they expect to process applications they have already received
- how easily they can verify your information
- how long you take to respond to any requests or concerns
- other factors
