Yup - I was one of the lucky ones!!! And double-yup - I am Toronto-bound, hopefully in 2.5 months' time! :)

Thank you! It's been a very, very good day! :)

It's fine as long as you provide documentation showing the origin of the money. If the account history is less than 6 months old, you need to provide evidence that it's coming from a legitimate source. You do not have to have the required funds at the time of submitting your EE profile (since...

Congratulations! Just got my passport back too! :) You can 'soft land' but it will take upwards of 3 months to get your PR Card, so to re-enter Canada, you'll either have to cross the US/Canadian border in a private vehicle with your COPR, or get a PR Travel Document to board a commercial...

Yup, sounds good to me!

Concerned about what? The fact that your employers won't provide you with an LMIA? I don't know if you should consider that to be 'overtly concerning' - LMIAs take a lot of extra work that employers can avoid by just hiring someone who already has full work authorization (a citizen, PR holder...

If you travelled outside of your home country during these vacations, then they need to be mentioned in Travel History. But they probably don't need to be mentioned in Address History unless they were really long vacations.

I'm not an expert in all of the NOC Codes, so you'd have to search the NOC List, but if you can't find a corresponding NOC Code for those first 3 months, then you shouldn't bother to include it under your Work History (although you'll have to include it under your 'Personal History' if you get...

This is normal. The statuses won't change again until your COPR and PR Counterfoil (if applicable) are issued.

Yes. I recommend including as many addresses as you can, and, in particular, any address that could potentially come up in your background check (so if you lived anywhere long enough for it to matter, or would have provided the address for any reason to someone else even if you were only there...

You're overthinking it :) As long as the number of years of experience you're claiming and the job duties and responsibilities you did can be verified by your documentation it will be fine. Those are really the only 2 things that matter. Just list your work experience in your profile/eAPR in...

A refund would indicate they cancelled your application...did you ever get an email or notice telling you that they re-opened your application?

You can update anything in your EE profile before you get an ITA. If you get an ITA, you won't be able to update your EE profile, but you can update anything in your eAPR (electronic application for permanent residency) as long as what you're changing doesn't make you ineligible or bring your...

If you received a notice that your visa was rejected then, Yes, you need to indicate you have a visa rejection in your history, when you answer the Statutory Questions. Just upload a Letter of Explanation, explaining what you just explained to us. It appears lots of people get their PR...

Hi Confused2017, The "Family Member Proof of Status" field is for persons who are claiming a PR/Citizen family member in Canada for FSW eligibility points. The 'Sibling' fields are there because of the relatively new rule allowing you to get 15-additional CRS points for having a PR/Citizen...

Hi MariaMaria, 1) You have to provide police clearance certificates for your immediate family members/dependents over 18 (i.e. spouse and children over 18 years of age) whether or not they are accompanying you. You do not have to provide them for siblings and parents. 2) Most people tend to...

You only need to scan the biography page and any pages with stamps/visas/info on them (i.e. you don't have to scan and upload blank pages). There is no special section to upload your Language Test Results; most persons just include this with their educational documents (copy of credential and...
