It didn't make your profile ineligible for FSW because you said you have a valid job offer. FSWs are exempt from PoF if they have a valid job offer, so that's why you are still eligible under FSW. If you get invited under FSW and you don't show proof of funds, you'll get denied. That's what...

Yes, unfortunately PGWP is non-renewable. Maybe you get ITA before the expiry date, seems like a possibility!

Processing time for BOWP is 61 days like mentioned, you should constantly check the processing times on the CIC website and only panic if your processing time has been longer than the one posted. Patience is a virtue.

This is very interesting, I didn't know you could modify EE profile answers after ITA. Even more interesting is that is seems like the custom generated document list is dynamic (It changes if information is modified). So to confirm, if I put under my EE-CEC profile that I would be bringing...

You are also exempt from showing proof of funds if you have a valid job offer backed by an LMIA.

Use the search feature, this topic has been started and answered so many times now that we all know that PoF is not required under CEC. We all know that if you put 0 in EE as funds under CEC, nothing bad happens.

No. CIC website says NOT to take medicals before ITA.

Forum users claiming that the score will never dip bellow 450 make me laugh... in the early days of EE, people were claiming it would never go bellow 800 and it did, then after a few draws, people were claiming it would never go bellow 600 and it did, now at 453, people are claiming that it will...

Yes it will! So many draws left this years, it's not even May yet. EE is only 4 months old... There's already been a CEC-specific draw in February btw. One day in the not so distant future, the CRS score will stabilize and we will get a clear picture of what the score required will be. But forum...

Maybe CIC will grace us with another CEC-Specific draw, It owes us that much. It's not cool to hear that people overseas who haven't even been to Canada before have already received ITA, whereas people like me who've lived here for years, with a Canadian diploma, perfect English scores, employed...

I'm at 422 too! It's not low, we are only 31 points away with at least 7 to 17 draw left for Express Entry so we have a good chance! We just have to be patient and wait. I know it's hard, the first quarter for express entry is almost over and for every round you don't get picked you get anxious...

EE takes six months, this is normal. You gotta be patient.

I believe there will be another or even multiple more CEC-specific draws. I'm certain the cutoff for those draws is gonna be lower than the norm. I'm guessing you are applying under CEC because of your IEC status.

The most interesting thing to come out of this news article is that we finally have a ballpark figure of around how many people are in the pool. 22k sounds like and acceptable number, some people were speculating it was in the 100Ks and even millions.

The best advice I have gotten on immigration was from my brother-in-law after I asked him maybe 6 years ago how it was to immigrate to a new country: "You won't know until you are there".

CIC will sometimes accept a combination of supporting documents to prove employment if there's no T4 or NoA. If it's time for you to apply and you still don't have T4 don't worry, you can submit paystubs, employment letter or any combination of documents to support your claims of employment.

We've always known there would be min of 15 to 25 draws this years, there's only been six. By 2017, CIC hopes that express entry will be the only method to apply to PR for skilled workers. The cap for CEC for example was reached on Oct 20th, the processing time for CEC under the old system is 12...

I received an update last week, my score is 422. I hadn't received a ghost update like that since I opened my EE profile in mid February. Maybe that guy that received update message with score of 356 is CEC, which might mean next draw will be CEC-specific.

No.Employment is not required for EE eligibility.
