    Self-Employed Application 2020

    I'm getting more and more desperate here. It makes me think my application is lost. The other issue is, my career is so much further on since I applied and now I want to amend the whole application. Any advice, can I do this? Applied Sep '2021. Temp AOR Jan '21. Nothing since. The only...

    Self-Employed Application 2020

    Just insane that they can take 2,000$ CAD from you, give you a "temp" number and then go silent for what is now over a year. And refuse to answer emails unless you're a refugee, according to their auto reply. Mad.

    470 points should be more than enough to get an invite, surely? I don't think you need a job offer for express entry (residency).

    I have 0 points for CEC which is my point -- I am self employed. I can't ditch my company to get a job in Canada on the work visa. So I can't get the CEC point bonus. Without it, I'm about 430 points so not really enough.

    You get points towards experience. But I believe you don't get the extra points for Canadian work experience. That's what I was told at least by an immigration consultant in Canada?

    Self-Employed Application 2020

    Being self employed in Canada doesn't count towards points for work experience in Canada, apparently.

    Self-Employed Application 2020

    ok. Good to know I’m not alone. To be honest it seems a con (I know it’s not) to take so much money then go quiet with some arbitrary date. maybe there’s another pathway. But I can’t get points via work visa because I’d have to give up my business to get a job.

    Self-Employed Application 2020

    I’m now worried — I got my temporary number in January 2021, but have had absolutely no word since. And people here receiving permanent numbers….. is anyone still waiting for a permanent number?

    Self-Employed Application 2020

    I applied September 2020 and temp AOR Jan 15 2021. Should I be concerned I have no permanent AOR yet when people on this thread say they have ?

    Not yet. Just temporary. When they say the 'timer' starts when you get acknowledgement, is the temporary number that? I know it's not a real timer, of course.

    Self-Employed Application 2020

    Hi all. I see a lot of talk about 'local visa offices'. I applied by sending my application to Sydney in Canada. Does this mean that I'm processed by a Canada office I assume, and local offices mean nothing to me? I'm in the UK. Timeline is November 2020 applied. AOR (temp) in January 2021...
