    Non-Express Entry(PNP) Online Applications Gather here

    Last CEC draw two weeks ago was 507. Did you just create your profile? I'm going to give my opinion, take it with a grain of salt. You could apply for OINP so you don't miss the nomination. If you get invited through CEC within the next couple of weeks, I would withdraw the OINP application and...

    Applied for TRV, got withdrawal for visitor record

    No, I wanted to get a new TRV as my current one is expiring in October. But when I applied for a TRV, they said I applied for a visitor record and withdrew my application because I already have a work permit. I want to know if I can send a webform for a withdrawn application or do I have to...

    General EI question: Anyone knows how long is it taking these days to process an EI application? My wife applied for EI (medical leave). We submitted all the paperwork a month ago and she still hasn't received a response. Canada's website says: "Our service standard is to provide you with a...

    Claim of sibling points

    Same situation. My sister applied for EE-FSW and I'm hoping to get the sibling points once she gets eCOPR. She lives in Canada, works for a Canadian company, and is not planning to travel outside of Canada within the next year. Can I use her eCOPR + a document like an employment letter, lease...

    OINP vs CEC

    Not sure if you can submit both, but I would tell you to make sure your employer is willing to fill the form required to apply through OINP. If you're confident that you have all the documents required to apply for CEC, I would take that option. It's way faster than OINP. CEC may be 7-9 months...
