    What Am i doing wrong?

    That is not correct. There are two ways to receive the 50 points for education: In combination with language results Or: In combination with Canadian work experience. So, Maria, you are correct, normally you should receive 50 points for this. However, do remember that you can only get a...

    Yes. When they ask you whether or not your spouse will accompany you, you may answer no.

    Adding spouse

    You must tell them about your spouse, I.e. You can't say you're single when you're married. On the other hand, it is optional to make your spouse an accompanying co-applicant. Just be aware though that if you exclude your spouse from the application, he or she will not become PR with you, and...

    COPR Yay but just 6 months on Visa

    Everyone in your family must go to Canada before the expiry of the COPR/Visa, or else they will not become a PR.

    (Express entry) Regarding foreign work experience

    That's fine. You can include a Letter of Explanation after ITA and explain why you didn't include it back then. Just make sure you have a full 52 weeks of work experience with at least 30 hours per week (both conditions must be met).

    Can I claim my girlfriend as a common law partner if we plan to live together?

    Studying in Canada can allow you to do that. Typically, you can get a post-graduate work permit (PGWP) after graduation, and you can work on that for three years. You could also look into your company transferring you to Canada. Also, some countries have working holiday arrangements with...

    Can I claim my girlfriend as a common law partner if we plan to live together?

    Well, if you want to go the EE route, then the only thing that can improve your points is: a) Getting Canadian work experience b) Getting an additional degree, ideally a Canadian Master's Or you can wait until you can prove 12 months of cohabitation with your girlfriend and then go down the...

    Can I claim my girlfriend as a common law partner if we plan to live together?

    Make sure you have listed all your work experience. Having three years of work experience can boost your points. The other option you could look into is PNPs.

    Can I claim my girlfriend as a common law partner if we plan to live together?

    You've given the answer to yourself already. It is a requirement for a common-law relationship for a couple to have lived together for at least 12 months. You do not qualify under this condition, and your intention to live together is not an adequate substitute. You have two options: a) Get...

    38th draw <GUESS>

    Re: 38th draw Not only is there a direct correlation, there is direct cause and effect. CIC determine the number of invites they want to issue, and those invites get issued to the top ranked candidates. The cut-off score is only the result of that process. The only thing the cut-off score is...

    Bumping this thread. Can anyone confirm that I will not be considered a tax resident if I just enter Canada to activate my PR and then leave after a couple of days. I will not: - have a place to live in Canada - have relatives or dependents living or remaining in Canada - spend more than 183...

    pls help anyone...really needed help..

    Mate, I don't know the answer to your question, but you will get more qualified responses if you give your post a meaningful title instead of "I need help". Guess what - that's true for most posts here. It's also not helpful that you started a second thread with a very similar subject line, but...

    PR approval before leaving Canada (FSW Inland)

    Aussies only need to send in a passport photocopy, but it has to be a physical photocopy (not by email). You'll also need to send two passport photos (must comply with CIC requirements) along with a questionnaire to confirm your personal details (or advise them of changes). This is true for all...

    IELTS

    I don't know whether or not your occupation is in demand in Canada. I'm just an immigrant myself, and I'm no expert on the Canadian labour market. PNPs have widely different requirements, depending on the province. I myself did not look into it because I didn't require it. There are plenty of...
