    NOC Confusion - Sales & Marketing Profile

    Of course it makes a difference! Selecting the correct noc is very important! 00 nocs are in general for C-level / director positions. I was a senior marketing manager (managing other managers and analysts) and I selected 0601. Don't think only of the job title in the NOC but think of the...

    HELP!!! Singapore COC (Certificate of Clearance)

    We did all that, no record of his FIN. He attended Insead. Anyways our application is in progress. Cic has not so far requested the COC. Worst case scenario he will fly there to sort this out. No such a cheap trip considering we live in Brazil.

    HELP!!! Singapore COC (Certificate of Clearance)

    I am on the same boat. My husband lived in Singapore in 2005 and has no record of his FIN. I wrote a LOE explaining the situation and added the following documents (almost a 30-page document): 1. Proof of communications with SPF stating that without FIN it's impossible to get a COC 2. Proof of...

    Singapore COC / PCC

    This is a risky move. A CSE can take over one month to be added to your profile. Medicals are being cleared in less time than that. If they start checking your application and do not find the PCC nor a LOE, your application can be canceled as incomplete. Hope it does not come to that.

    Application cancelled - how to appeal?

    Just to give an update: my first application got canceled on 15th June. I called CIC on the 23rd, explained the situation and was told to call back after 2 weeks. I could never reach them again (lines were always full), and since my new application had already passed medicals, I stopped caring...

    Express Entry applicants from Brazil, connect here!

    Itau has a standard letter that they can even issue in English. Just say you need a letter for immigration purposes with the date you opened the account, balance, and all of cic's requirements. The only thing they do not include is the 6-month balance history. For that I downloaded the monthly...

    Application Status:Called CIC

    Yes, Hangouts is an app from google. You can use a PC or the phone app. To use from a mobile , there is an specific app (hangouts dialer or something like that). First time I called from my PC because I didn't manage to call from my mobile, only later I found out that this other app was needed.

    Application rejected due to Noc

    NOCs starting with 0 are management positions, and your letter does not show management duties. If you didn't supervise people, try NOCs like 1111 or 1112. Apply again. Adjusting NOC should suffice! Good luck!

    Express Entry applicants from Brazil, connect here!

    This is the sworn statement that CIC requires. Remember to attach originals as well! In my case, the translator stamped the back of the original documents with a translation number, and that same number is mentioned on the translated version, so I scanned also the back of the originals to show...

    Application Status:Called CIC

    Call +16139444000. I was successful to get transferred to CIC. But I waited for 55 minutes before talking to an agent!! Yesterday I called 3 times and there were too many callers so I was not even put on the wait line. :( Call from Hangouts, it is free!

    Primary applicant - both husband and wife ?

    She can be the main applicant and add you as accompanying spouse. Then you can all go together. In theory she could go to Canada, do the landing and return to the Philippines.

    NCLC & CLB - confusion

    Not sure I understand your question. They are the same thing! NCLC is the translation of CLB. So saying CLB 9 is exactly the same thing as NCLC 9. Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB) Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadien (NCLC)

    Sorry, it was noted meant to be a link! :oops: I copied the book names from the order email from fnac. Check fnac.fr. They deliver internationally. I remember that back then I couldn't find similar materials on amazon.

    TEF - French Exam...

    Guys, I took the TEF last December and will share some of my experience. I had studied French when I was at the university. I had a good level back then, I even spent some months in France studying. But after that 15 years passed seeing close to no French at all. First thing I did was to hire...

    Help! Spouse's IELTS wrong

    Just to correct myself: language testing is mandatory for principal applicant, not sure for spouse. Which one had the mistake? If it was the principal applicant, I stand by what I wrote above.

    Help! Spouse's IELTS wrong

    I am just guessing here, but I would say NO. Language testing is mandatory for EE applications, it is not a matter of how many points they mean in your score. If I were you I would rush, take the General Training IELTS, and then add a LOE explaining the whole thing. Not sure if that would...
