    If I am a 26 YO - can I apply for PR for me and parents?

    Hi 8Everything, As principal applicant, you would only be able to include your spouse and any dependent CHILDREN in your PR application. If you hope for your parents to get PR, they will either have to apply for PR themselves, or you will have to sponsor them on family sponsorship after you...

    PNP or FSW?

    No worries; everyone starts out 'ignorant'. We're all here to help. Draws occur, typically, 1 to 3 weeks apart, usually on Wednesdays. The last Draw was this past Wednesday (the 15th), so another draw is likely to happen on the 22nd, 29th, or Dec 6th (my bet would be on the 29th, but as the...

    PNP or FSW?

    Hi raiiqbal, welcome to the forum. I'm not sure but, based on your question, you might be a bit confused about how the different streams, including FSW and PNP work. To be clear though, one cannot apply through PNP unless he/she has a nomination certificate from a province - this is what makes...

    Bank Letter Issue- Please Help

    My US Bank was initially giving me the run-around as well. Since you only have a verbal refusal for them, if you have time, I would recommend you submit your request in a written format (online chat, email, online customer service portal, etc.). In the written request, you should also register...

    Express Entry Profile - Help Needed

    Notarization is just another way to 'endorse' the document. A typical experience letter drawn up on Company letterhead and signed by an authorized officer of the employer (HR, or a company executive, or your manager if he/she is so authorized, etc.) is 'endorsed' by the letter-head and...

    Change in employment after receiving PR invitation

    Don't decline your ITA or withdraw your profile. Simply make the correction to your eAPR (electronic application for permanent residency) (i.e. the part you complete after getting an ITA), and ensure your proof of work experience (your reference letters) properly reflect what you've entered in...

    automatic score increase in the profile

    Hi itiwari, The country in which you reside before, during, or after your ITA and application submission will generally have no bearing on your application. If you move back to your country before you submit your application, make sure you indicate the country you're in as your country of...

    Express Entry application Visa fee

    Express Entry: ineligible (if anyone can help)

    Bobbieleigh is right; you only have 64 points on the FSW eligibility grid - you need 67. Do you happen to have a relative (parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, sibling, aunt, uncle, niece or nephew) who is 18 years or older, living in Canada, and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident...

    Primary occupation and education

    Haven't started packing yet, but I handed in my resignation at work, booked my plane ticket, and bought my new luggage set! :) We are technically supposed to bring "proof of funds" with us when we land, but the likelihood of your Immigration Officer actually asking to see those proof of funds...

    Any Question on Express Entry---i will try to answer

    I'm not sure I understand the issue - if the FBI said 3 more weeks and you have 6 more weeks to submit your eAPR, that means, if the FBI comes through, you'd be able to submit your eAPR 3 weeks before the deadline...

    Incomplete Application due to PCC dates: Suggestion please

    Hi omicrondelta, I'm a little confused, as OdinNguyen's link DOES answer the question I THOUGHT you were asking. Could you try rephrasing your question for us, so we can better assist you? My understanding is that you're asking what dates your police clearance certificate needs to cover...

    Personal History questions

    You're not required to provide proof of anything in your Personal History - I suspect this section facilitates the Background check. In my personal opinion, if you suspect it could come up in your background check, you should probably disclose it, just to avoid having IRCC wonder why you didn't...

    Primary occupation and education

    Yes, a background check is the final (and usually longest) stage of processing your application once you submit it (also known as the security assessment). I'm not completely sure what the background check entails (also, it's fairly certain that part of it involves ensuring you don't pose a...

    Primary occupation and education

    You can land for a short time (even just a few hours) in order to claim your PR and then head right back out of the country if you're not yet ready to move permanently. This is called 'soft-landing'. However, your PR Card, which will serve as your travel document, won't be ready for at least 3...

    Incomplete Application due to PCC dates: Suggestion please

    Your PCC needs to be up to Jan 20, 2013. It needs to be issued after and cover the entire period up to and including the last time you were in the Country. Medical can be re-used, but you may have to ask your doctor to upload it again - not sure - anyone else in the forum have more information...
