I have recently done my landing and completed my PR process under CEC category. I have been living and working in Canada for years now, and have a SIN # based on my previous work permit (starting with 9). When I go to pick up my new SIN #, will they properly merge it with the previous SIN #...

So I just did mine at Commissionaires (Downtown Toronto) this morning. It was pretty easy and the technicians are very knowledgeable about the process. It was $45 ($40 + tax). It takes 20 mins person, regardless of their application. So if you are planning to drop in, please do so in the...

I am asked to to a criminal record check. To be specific : "RCMP Certified Criminal Record Check based on fingerprints". I'm yet to confirm an appointment, but Canada Commissionaires usually charge $75.

I didn't see fingerscan.ca as an Accredited fingerprint company in the RCMP website. But anyone familiar with 'Canadian Corps of Commissionaires' (www.commissionaires.ca) at Downtown Toronto? They are listed in the RCMP website...

So here is my situation: (Category - CEC inland.) ITA - December 26th 2016 Application submitted - Jan 9th 2017 Medical Passed - MArch 17th 2017 RCMP criminal check request - 20th March 2017 I got the RCMP request today and I was wondering what others have done. 1) The CIC letter said that I...

I started in Canada as a student with a SIN number starting with "0" back in 2009. In 2011, i started working part-time and I was given a new SIN number starting with "9". I was assured both in person in Service Canada and CRA over the phone, that my old number will be merged with my new number...

So I have received ITA for CEC based on 2 years of post grad work experience. In my last company, i worked there for 16 months (June 2014- Oct 2015) In my present company, I have just over 11 months (Feb 2016- present) However, in my last job, my first 3 months probation period was considered...

I received my ITA on 22nd Dec too, under CEC. I have 2 questions: 1) Right now, I'm being held back by the medical examination. The earliest appointment I can get is next week. How long is the turnaround time for doctors using eMedical system? 2) My PGWP expires 31st July 2017. This gives me...

Yes, getting the PT notification would have been nice. This was a much better way to get into OINP (ontario's PNP). But I doubt any human ever decides who gets the PT notification and it seems like a lottery since it automatically shows up in your EE application. I have explored other types of...

Glad it worked out for you. I suppose many others were in your situation too. But this is frustrating. I'm trying to build a career here and working in a very reputable position. It's not easy to drop all this and go back. While we may get a PR sooner or later, time and age is not on our side...

I have completed my undergrad(+internship) in Canada and now have 2+ years of post grad work experience. Yet I cannot make the cut to get an ITA. By now there should be thousands of you like me out there. In this job market, it is not easy to get exactly 3 years of work experience out of a 3...

Yes you are correct with all the points. My internship is the grey area here. My friend was able to use his internship in his FSW by providing a letter of explanation on why should it be considered as work experience. But this was last year. You mentioned that this year I will always default to...

My postgrad work permit is valid till July 2017. I have so far acquired full 2 years of work experience after graduation. (all studies and work experience is in Canada) But the way things are, my 2 years of experience simply does not give enough points. I really want to include my internship...

So if we take the situation like this: -Live and work in Canada -Apply for EE and submit all the forms including the police certificate by December 2016. -Visit back home for 2-3 weeks in February 2017 (while the EE process is still happening) Would this potentially cause any problem? As a...

Yea I have created the job bank profile. It is indeed like others said was a problem with my primary NOC being less than 1 year.

I was a "part-time" student during my internship. It was full time employment which is not part of the core curriculum. I know people who used this in their FSW application, but definitely not CEC. With the way things are right now, I have to try my luck with FSW. Otherwise there no chance of...

I was pretty generous with the funds. It's actually a lot more than what I said in my last application. If that's the case, I'll update my profile to include some more fund. Just to be clear, I only finished my application a few hours ago. Hopefully it's not one of those server delay cases.

So I have applied to express entry before, but at that time my work experience was not enough to have high points. But at that time ( Jan 2016 ish) I was eligible for both CEC and FSW. I have withdrawn that profile and created a new one to add my new work year and update my passport number...

That is very interesting. It does seem to say I may include my experience under FSW (not CEC). Just to make it clear, my internship was 16 months, continuous employment under a single company. (it was an engineering position) But in the chance that my application gets rejected, what kind of...

You sure about this? Did someone in this forum do this? So when I fill my EE form, under Work Experience, I select "Were you enrolled at university during this time? : No" ? (It will only let you pick Yes/No, although technically I was enrolled in the university)
