    Visa Office (VO) Express Entry Question

    I wouldn't be able to share my experience here as I don't work with IRCC and therefore don't have complete information about the review process :) I also didn't order GCMS notes, so I don't have recorded information about the stages of review that my file went through . That being said, the...

    Visa Office (VO) Express Entry Question

    I think your LVO is more likely to be chosen by your country of residence, not citizenship (so you won't have to ship your passport half way around the world, maybe? :p) So I SUSPECT yours will be Ottawa...

    Profile ineligible

    Hi Virendra, You can create a new profile and you would put 'No' you have not applied before. Express Entry profiles are not applications; they're 'expressions of interest'. The application part doesn't come until after you've received an ITA and submit the eAPR (electronic application for...

    FBI US PCC which applications are currently being processed ?

    My PCC was in black and white and I got PPR. Just ensure you scan the document in colour anyway, even though the original is black and white.

    Ita

    1) You just need to withdraw the first profile; it's a very easy process and it should not require explanation to your consultant - just tell him/her 'Withdraw the first profile'. According to IRCC's website, Canada's Immigration Law prohibits having more than one profile, but this doesn't...

    Express Entry in a nutshell

    Medicals have a validity period of 1 year; that's why your PR visa was issued for May 2018. You won't have to redo the medical as long as you land by your deadline (and not landing by your deadline would have other implications anyway).

    Primary occupation and education

    Hi MariaMaria, Based on the questions you're asking, it seems as though you haven't read through the Express Entry process on IRCC's website. It is imperative you read through this information otherwise you'll miss something critical in the Express Entry process...

    Documents required

    The 'Family Member Proof of Status' field is a separate field that was there before the '15-points for sibling' rule came into play. It was meant for applicants to upload documentation of the family member (not necessarily a sibling) in Canada they had claimed to get 5 additional points towards...

    Primary occupation and education

    What the universities have to send is dependent on what the assessing agency asks for, for the specific country in which you pursued your eduacation (some will ask for transcripts only, others will want degree certificates, others will want attested mark sheets, etc.), but yes, the universities...

    Vocational / Technical Training & ECA

    It depends on whether your CRS Score needs it? First off, did you get your Bachelor's Degree and technical college certificates assessed? What Canadian Equivalency did you receive for each? If one of your Degrees (most likely the Bachelor's) was assessed as a 3-year post-secondary...

    Primary occupation and education

    Depends on the assessment agency - mine took 20 business days (1 month) but others may take longer, and each case is processed at different paces (despite the average processing time). You could re-submit for an additional assessment if you're unhappy with the results, assuming you're okay with...

    Primary occupation and education

    Regarding the educational credential assessment or regarding PR applications on a whole? There's not much to the educational credential assessment - you just follow the instructions given by the chosen assessing agency and then wait for them to give you a result. Keep in mind that the result...

    Primary occupation and education

    The requirements differ by country of education and by the assessing agency so it largely depends. You have to go the assessing agency's website and look up specifically which documents they will need from you and how they will need to be submitted. For my assessment, I only had to have my...

    EE profile mistake - please help!

    If you haven't submitted your eAPR as yet, you can change anything in the questionnaire as long as it doesn't affect your CRS Score - statutory questions don't affect your CRS Score and you would still have gotten an ITA anyway even if you had answered yes to those questions in your EE Profile...

    Primary occupation and education

    Marketing Professionals don't need to have specific Degrees. Very few business-related professions actually require specific types of Degrees for someone to succeed in the profession - most of what you need to know can be learned on-the-job and through experience. I work in HR and recruiting...

    Yes you can. Area of studies don't have to match work experience (unless the employment in question is so restrictive, from a licensing/education perspective, that it would cast reasonable doubt if you didn't have matching educational credentials, but this is not the case for you - Marketing...
