So since it triggers a B'F DATE, does it mean that if before your file was just sitting there with no specific date, now it gets one and hence should be looked at sooner by an officer?

Congrats Oscar, you're well on your way! Look out soon for MR, RFPR, etc. If it wasn't updated til yesterday, then what date is it saying that they started processing your sh1t, lol.

Hear hear :)

OK, then. I'm eager to hear of your experience when that time comes, which I trust will be soon. +1 to you for being a good sport ;). In the interim, hope the wait for you isn't too bad. As I have now passed the first stage (PER), the uncertainty for me is now gone and the wait has become a...

For reference purposes, see the post below to which Owais Iqbal alludes in ANSWER 2. Of interest to me is this part: This seems to suggest that they would accept a bank statement showing proof of having the funds, instead of actually carrying it in the form of bank draft, travellers' cheques...

Thanks for your response.

Godfada, I've done some research on this as well, even before deciding to apply for FSW 2014. I found that there is a Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between the US & Canadian accounting bodies [AICPA/NASBA & CICA (now CPA Canada)]. As a result, persons who are licensed as a CPA in one of...

The Bachelors degree (via ACCA & OBU partnership) will count as a foreign educational credential as it is issued by the UK. You would need to get it assessed by a credential assessment institution such as WES or ICAS. Once that is done, you should get 21 points for education. If you meet the...

I honestly think people applying now for NOC 1111 will be in cap. Even the most pessimistic estimates based on extrapolation of available actual data seems to suggest that the 1000 cap will not be filled until the end of the year.

Excellent! Now for the bad news... here begins the wait :-X.

Thanks, yes indeed. Congrats to you as well. I see you also got PER recently :).

Ok, cool. Will do, thanks. One other question in the interim: how do you get the results of the formulas spreadsheet to be copied automatically to the main spreadsheet at intervals?

Hi all I am curious as to how the Express Entry system will work. Currently though, I have applied for FSW14 and my application is in process. As far as I know, FSW14 will be closing in April 2015 so there will be some months of overlap (i.e. Jan 2015 to April 2015). My advice though would be...

Good. This sounds like it could work. Carrying an initial amount to satisfy the officer that you can survive the first couple of months with cash on hand and the bank statements as evidence that altogether you have the full required amount. When taking DD though, it would be one drawn on a...

Thanks for your comments. I will cross-post this in the 2013 thread to get their views on it as many there should have landed by now or will land soon.

My only issue with that is you should ask yourself the question: "What else might I NOT have included that should have been?" At least if you get it back you can double and triple check. Ultimately, however, the decision as to whether to recall or send additional documents later is your own.

LOL :D.

Indeed! I am so happy I found this forum before sending my application and will forever remain grateful to the forum members who assisted me. All the questions I needed to ask were so graciously answered and I was able to put together a complete application, which has now been accepted for...

If you can get it redirected back to you or someone in Canada who can add the additional documents, that would be BEST.

This is some really useful information, thanks for sharing. +1. Of interest to me is this part: This seems to suggest that they would accept a bank statement showing proof of having the funds, instead of actually carrying it in the form of bank draft, travellers' cheques or cash. Am I right...
