    CEC points increased before 52 weeks

    You're fine. If you get an ITA in the next few weeks, you will still have 60 days before your PR application is due. I suspect they gave you the 60 days in making you eligible under CEC. Then too, just about everyone who qualifies for both gets an FSW invitation, so you're fine there, too...

    Nothing is wrong with having LMIA/PNP, but there are people on OWP and PGWP who holds full-time jobs who have and is currently contributing to the economy. Some of these ppl earn two to three time more than some of the persons with LMIA, however, their jobs are not considered arranged employment...

    More info on the express entry programme

    When I mean 'screen', I do not mean like now, where they just check the documents, and if you are ok, they process it. I mean that they have the option to look at you as a whole, through your profile, and decide if they 'like' you, (be successful in Canada and contribute to its economy). That...

    How does this work?

    You can change your program from 2-years to 3-years and later before the expiry of your current 2-year SP, you can extend your SP from within Canada by showing your current transcript of that time and a letter from your institute stating that program duration is 3-years. There is nothing to...

    Student visa for 40 plus, any scope for PR after that?

    I am not sure how much research you've done already so i'll just throw stuff out there! For choosing a subject I think it's a good idea to browse the different occupations in demand and choose one(or a few to approach institutions with) that you'll be happy doing and that gives good points...

    PR application refused on wrong grounds

    Hi, Im super sorry I was busy yesterday and couldn't get back to you. Firstly I think it's best to consult an immigration lawyer, not friends or friends who know immigration lawyers. An actual immigration lawyer would have probably saved you from over staying in Canada. Secondly, You say you...

Start with applying to universities, if you can afford it apply to more than one. Everything I has said here is completely my interpretation...

    Canadian Citizen wants to get married to PGWP girlfriend

    Hey Sverige! Hvordan går det? I applied for an extension since my IEC visa ran out 2 or 3 days later so we felt that was the safest bet. The extension is only valid until the 9th of August this year. We did include an OWP with our inland application. We received an email about them receiving...

    PR support LMIA

    Honestly, PR support LMIA would cost 0 dollars whereas the dual intent would cost about a grand (1k). If your employer is willing to pay the money, on top of going through the Job Bank/Interviewing process, then go with Dual Intent i.e. work permit, otherwise just PR Support should work, if...

    I share the officers concern - a small company may need a web maintainer but not a full-time web developer, even a maintainer may not be warranted full-time.

    March 2014 applications-----

    This is weird. There should be something like "meet requirement" or "have concern" ..... Nothing here indicated whether they have concern about your work experience but why the recommendation is review required ?

    International student < PNP < PR < MARRIAGE?

    Thank You canuck_in_uk for the nicely explained response. After reading your post I think applying inland will be better than applying outland. Inland has just one downside that in case of rejection one can't appeal. But I think if the file is put forward strong including all marriage documents...

    Did I fill out my EE profile wrong? :( (Employment Records vs Letter of Employment)

    I also got confused before if I’m gonna consider my current job as valid job offer. However, I found out that a valid job offer is an arranged employment (w/ LMIA) or the employer is listed on your work permit. If you are on Pgwp and you want to claim points on this, your employer needs to get...
