Hello, Does that mean in the education history you put only the Master and the Bachelor post ITA ? (nothing like high school stuff for instance ?) Thanks for your time !

Dear @legalfalcon, I ordered GCMS notes some time ago because I got a refusal for a spousal open work permit. After asking on the forum here, I realized I was considered the principal foreign national and because of that I could not ask for a spousal open work permit based on my husband work...

Thanks AishB, do you know if that means in education you could also, like for the work history, put just what you claim points for ?

Hello everyone, I have not received an ITA yet but trying to prepare all documents and how I will fill the forms. It looks like there is a personal history section but also a work and an education section ? My understanding was that or the Express Entry Profile, you put in work and education...

Hello everyone, After being in the US for a few days I am returning to Canada by air (I have a study permit and have been a student in Canada for few years now). on the CBSA declaration form, do I need to fill part B (visitor) or part C (resident of Canada). My understanding is that I am a...

Hello, Just wanted to see if this is still the same thing that if you got a eTA issued with your study permit you cannot check it with the online tool. I got issued a eTA with a study permit this past March but when I go on the online tool it does not find it. Am I still good to travel ? I...

Hello everyone, I managed to order GCMS notes and they came back in 30 days. In my demand I had mentioned that I also wanted all the support documents provided when I applied for the permit. This was at the border. They sent me only the GCMS notes and a picture of me as well as the email of...

Hello everyone, I am trying to find information about the forms that will need to be filled after invitation to apply in the CEC category. I understand that most of these forms are done directly online now but could someone list me the forms they had to fill ? Is Schedule A part of it ? and...

Hello all, I had an eTA issued back in 2016 when I applied for a study permit and this eTA was valid until December 2021. I was not sure when it would expire so I checked on their website and it says that it was approved with expiration date December 2021. But then below it says "Following an...

Hello, Do you remember which day of the week you went ? Wondering if they process work permits on the week end. Thanks !

Yes that was exactly the problem. I was the student first. It is interesting though that on the letter of refusal they did not mention this problem but was just a standard refusal letter with no specifics. Thanks to this forum now I know the problem and would not foolishly just reapply again for...

Hi Andrew. It looks like you are the principal applicant and so your wife should be able to get an open work permit based on your closed work permit. There might be though some specifics concerning proof of you working on that closed work permit.

For those of you that ordered the GCMS notes themselves, has anyone ordered GCMS notes +, with the entire file of application and how do you ask for that on the ATIP online request website ?

I think that is the one. I know for sure one of them did get it at the border, they exited Canada and re-enter.

Actually they have a special LMIA exempt work permit called global talent that they use routinely, I have lots of colleagues on that permit. I will see with the lawyer but I am pretty sure this is the one they will recommend.

Thanks Naturgrl ! Unfortunately my PGWP expires early January 2023 so I am not eligible for an extension as this is for expiration before 31 December 2022 (literally I am just a few days after that date). I am eligible for a LMIA exempt closed work permit but I am going to take a lawyer through...

Thanks for your answer, I see this was a fairly recent change (I think October 2021) ? Do you know if there is a document from IRCC about it ? I am not working illegally, my PGWP is still valid and I was the primary applicant (ie the first that got the study permit). I can apply for a certain...

Hello, I have been a student in Canada and then had a post graduate work permit. My husband has a study permit now valid for 3 more years and my post graduate work permit expiring in few months I applied 6 months ago for extension of my stay asking for a new permit (a spouse open work permit)...

ok thanks !

Hello everyone, The update of processing times from IRCC has confused me. It says that CEC is 7 months but Express Entry PNP is 22 months. If I am a CEC but got invited because I had a nomination from a province, does that mean I am in the EE PNP category and therefore the 22 month processing...
