    IEC 2014 - International Experience Canada

    Probably late but you can't use MSP as proof of insurance as it doesn't cover repatriation costs if something goes wrong. You'll need travel insurance for however long you want it.

    CEC application time

    You need at least one full calendar year if full time work, so number of hours won't matter and it's 100% impossible that you'd get it all done in two months. Most people applying for CEC PR are also putting in Bridging Open Work Permit after receiving notice that they're had their...

    Background Check

    I would assume they're corroborating the information you've provided to them, plus checking if they find anything unwelcoming (like terrorism s*** or whatever). But I imagine CIC do it over a friendly game of beer pong or whatever.

    chance of getting pr

    I'm going to say that it's probably likely that you'll get a passport request soon. In fact, I'll give you $100 if you don't.

    Which Bank is Best?!

    Yea, most of the big ones are the same (TD, RBC, BMO, Scotiabnk), so just check which has the best deal. I recall seeing RBC giving away iPad or Galaxy Tabs recently, which is pretty decent.

    CEC and possible salary requirements!

    I work with Property Admins every day and I would imagine that CIC are probably looking closer at any vocational classes that your wide has been taking. This, of course, differs between provinces but here in BC you need to be registered with the Real Estate Council of British Columbia to work as...

    BOWP Implied Status

    http://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2013/cic/Ci63-27-2013-eng.pdf Section 5.22: R186(u) allows for persons to continue working under the conditions of an expired work permit, as long as they applied for a new work permit before the original work permit expired and remained in...

    Start new job on implied status?

    Your implied status would be based upon your OCWP, would there be any condition on the OCWP that may prevent you switching jobs if you weren't on implied status?

    Passport validity question for CEC

    Probably best to apply after your landing in September, after you arrive back in Australia. I wouldn't apply now as your COPR has you passport number & expiry, and it won't match up and it's kind of a hassle to apply for a passport our of your own country (well it was for me to apply for a UK...

    If any of you have been in this situation?

    Not been in that situation but you'll either need to find a way to extend your work permit, get a different work permit (LMIA?) or a different permanent residence stream (look into the Provincial nominee program or federal skilled worker). Good luck.

    Doubts on IMM0008

    It makes far more to include them in your current application rather than to sponsor them sometime in the future. Them (or you) leaving for a couple of years won't affect your residency obligations.

    Need Help in Filling out Personal History

    I don't see why you would mention a school that you never attended, it would seem quite irrelevant to your actual history. I would put the time between your job and your master's as unemployed or whatever you were doing.

    questions

    I don't recall any instructions with regards to keeping the IELTS envelope sealed. I'm sure there were two or three certificates in the envelope too, you should keep the additional certificate(s) to prove your language credentials when applying for citizenship.

    Confirmation of Permanent Residence - Errors

    Just tell the CBSA officer at POE. Mine was dated wrong too, it seems to be a common thing.

    URGENT HELP PLEASE: IMPLIED STATUS ISSUE

    I personally wouldn't lie about overstaying beyond your work permit, if you're found out it could be construed as misrepresentation and it'd get your application thrown out & you'll be barred from the country for 2 years. It might be best to research an actual good immigration...
