    CEC: Work Experience Issue

    Yes. In the profile, you only need to include experience which will help you qualify and earn points. If you don't have documentation for a job and don't need it, you don't have to include it in the profile. LATER, if you get an ITA, you will have to put EVERYTHING in the personal history...

    Claiming 50 points for Job offer on closed WP without LIMA

    An extension of one year (beginning before you apply) will not be enough to meet the "valid job offer" criteria. Yes, you would be eligible on an LMIA-exempt closed work permit, has you have already worked for this employer for 1 year, but you need to get a future job offer letter indicating...

    Valid job offer for postdoc

    That sounds good to me : ) There is a chance that a senior officer reviews and has a different opinion, but I don't think that happens much when the recommendation is "pass."

    Valid job offer for postdoc

    IRCC will not answer such a question. You CAN apply for your GCMS notes and see what they say. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/access-information-privacy/request-privacy-act.html There would be no real point to withdrawing the application at...

    How do i actually apply for a BOWP?

    There is no separate / distinct application for a BOWP. By definition, you are extending/changing conditions of your existing work permit. And no, the application form was not tailored for the BOWP. But there are instructions for the BOWP. If you have submitted your eAPR and received your...

    Application before 1 year fulfillment

    Do you mean "submit your profile" or do you mean you got an ITA before you were eligible?

    Marriage after submitting PR application

    Um... what? LOL. You posted under CEC, so the initial response is, for CEC applicants, you do not need to show proof of funds.

    CEC Skilled Worker

    Ok, I had to go back through the thread, you are on a study permit, and she is on an open work permit based on your study permit. Are you still studying? Have you confirmed with your school whether you are eligible to apply for a PGWP? Of course you cannot work if you have left your program...

    Personal Activities - Shareholder and Board of Director of a company

    Yes - the fact that you are a shareholder does not concern IRCC, but the fact that you serve on the board of directors is of interest.

    Removing wife from PR to get my own PR

    So if I understand correctly, you have applied with your wife and everything is passed except security - and you think that removing her from the application will speed things up? Not sure why you would think that, but you are dead wrong - the security check applies to both of you, so...

    Calculating work experience

    LOL, everyone defines one year as 52 weeks. Yes, your contract will give you one year if you complete it with those dates, but you won't have any leeway - depending on your work permit and the end date, you may have to leave Canada and apply from abroad, if you don't get a contract extension...

    Doubt regarding Canadian Work Experience

    You haven't done the math, so I cannot begin to suggest how many weeks you can put. As previously mentioned, you count the full-time weeks as full-time, and the part-time weeks as part-time.

    Doubt regarding Canadian Work Experience

    It is not "on the safe side" to ignore IRCC rules. You and your employer can make up all the rules you want, but IRCC will use their own. I have told you how to correctly calculate it, the rest is up to you. You have to show the number of hours you worked, and correctly calculate it. If you...
