Hi shane, Don't worry, whether you renew your PR or not does not affect your family members. As long as they have stayed the minimum days, they should be good.

Nabil, it all depends on whether they made a positive decision on your application before February 11, 2014. But that's a year from now, the delay in them getting back to you could mean they have the wrong address. Check your e-line profile to see what address is on file.

And where did you come up with that idea? ECA is needed to submit an eligible profile, it says so everywhere on CIC

The system won't let you enter the pool without ECA

Bank statements going back 6 months is usually recommended. Try to look at it from the eyes of an immigration officer, a sudden increase in available funds shown for only 1 month without providing statements from other months would seem dodgy. Why not submit prior bank statements with the bank...

There isn't a fixed eligible occupation list like with the previous FSW (e.g. the 50 eligible occupations) Now you need to have worked in a NOC 0, A or B for at least one year to meet the requirement. So your occupation is not excluded.

Toronto :) Next step for us; aim for that citizenship. Unfortunately, we will have to wait longer to get our citizenship than past applicants, they have really made it tougher. But one hurdle at a time, thankfully we've come this far. Don't forget to try some poutine!

Trust me it felt like a miracle when we heard our application was finalized before royal assent. We really cut it very close. Makes you think about fate. Good luck. Will be you landing in Montreal?

You will get 112.

Your work experience during your studies doesn't count, hence you lose the work experience points and fall below 67. The work experience requirements are clearly mentioned in the Express Entry ministerial instructions too. Work experience — requirements (7) For the purposes of this section...

Have you got your IELTS/other language test results already & ECA report? To be eligible for FSW, you need minimum 67 points + minimum CLB of 7 (IELTS score of 6) + minimum of 1 year skilled work experience. If you studied outside Canada, you will also need to submit an ECA report. If you are...

That's great news Xpress and after quite a long wait. We almost had the same processing times, except yours was Quebec and ours was Federal. It such a relief. Congratulations! Next step, prepare to land! :P I am sure you must be aware about the documents to bring as well as the goods to...

What humanitarian grounds? As scylla mentioned the best option would be to convince CIC you were studying continously. For the 6 month break, you could say you were preparing for admission/volunteering/other courses. It's a slim chance.

Also, the Quebec Investor & Entrepreneur Programs are still available subject to caps. You would have to apply next year if the maximum number of applications accepted has already been met.

A good idea is to check the current processing times for PR cards: ~36 calendar days. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm-card.asp And if you live inside Canada, and its been longer than the expected time, you may get more details by calling the call centre: Call Centre...
