    Police Clearance Certificate

    I have been trying to find an endorser. Everyone I asked gently refused. They think they might get into trouble. I was in UK for a year as a student. Promptly completed my Masters and came back. How does one go about convincing people that it’s nothing to be scared of lol

    Distance Learning - University of London

    I am thinking of trying SINP. My NOC is in the list of in-demand occupation. So I think that may help in bumping up my points. My CRS is too low even for OINP draws.

    Thank you. I currently have a very low CRS score of 444. Even after taking into account the highest I could get in IELTS, Masters, 3+ years of experience and relatives in Canada. Downside is my age - probably where I have lost points.

    Distance Learning - University of London

    Hi All, I have a degree in BSc Computing and Information Systems from the Goldsmiths’ College, University of London. This was a distance learning external program. However, I attended an institute locally in Sri Lanka from start to end. This institute has an affiliation with University of...

    NOC Code for Data Analyst (ACL/Alteryx)

    Hi All, I am not sure if this is the right thread to post this question. Apologies if it is. Quite new here. I have just started the process of applying for EE. I am finding it hard to decide on my NOC. I work for a Big 4 firm and have educational background in Computer Science. I support the...

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    Oh my! Then maybe a PNP nomination? I think we can score 600 points if our job skill is in demand in that province.

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    I am unmarried. My only family is my mother and brother, both are in Canada. I doubt siblings above 18 can be sponsored? That’s true. I do not want to take an unnecessary risk with personal loans unless I hear some success stories. Still, it’s hard to say. What works for one at application...

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    Sorry I meant to say late 30s not 40s lol. I have a score of 447. But I can try and bump it up a little with a better IELTS score I suppose. How does the gift thing work? Is it a fool-proof method for POF? I have heard about this a lot, but not come across anyone who could say “Yeah, I did the...

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    That would be my last resort solution. Again, waiting means I lose out on CRS points considering my age. Valid point on not being able to withdraw PoF immediately after visa approval to settle back the loan. Anyone who has done this before could suggest if there is a way and how they have done it.

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    So basically if I maintain accounts at more than one bank in the country, I have to disclose them all to prove I have no loans? I am just wondering how the visa officer could possibly find out about the loans I have with other financial institutions.

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    I thought about the expensive angle. But I am in my late 40s and the longer I wait, I will keep losing out on CRS points. I am a single (educated and independent) woman living alone, and just want to go unite with my family in Canada. I know getting a personal loan is against the rules, but it’s...

    Proof of Funds - Personal Loans

    Hi All, I plan to submit my Express Entry Application online and have met all other requirements, except proof of funds. I am in deficit of CAD 4000 for which I plan to apply for a personal loan from a bank (let’s call it Bank B) where I do not hold a savings account. All my savings are held...
