    Time to process ITA after submitting

    Hi, does anyone have any examples of how long it takes for ITA to be approved after submitting? I know it can take up to 6 months but I think I read somewhere that it is usually done much quicker than that now? Thanks, Marcus

    Ontario (OINP) - Notification of Interest (NOI) - CRS under 400 points

    Hi, Can anyone who receives a NOI for OINP with a CRS under 400 points post here please? CRS? NOC? Age? Date received? Did you have to re-create your profile? Thanks

    Ontario PNP cut-off likely to decrease below 400 points?

    Hi Tommy, Thanks for your response. I have just had to re-do my IELTS last week as it expired so am waiting for the results. I have been in the pool for 2 years now. My previous IELTS I had full points (136) so I expect to get similar again which will put me at around 385 CRS. I am 39 years...

    Ontario PNP cut-off likely to decrease below 400 points?

    Hi, What are people's views on this? If the draws remain in the low 400's or even go below, then surely the 400 point cut-off will be lowered? Thanks

    Profile ineligible

    Has your IELTS expired? It expires after 2 years. This happened to me, I updated my profile and it went in to an ineligible state. I realised that my IELTS had expired and I had to re-take it.

    Profile ineligible after recreating

    Thanks. Yep it has been accepted now. I have recreated my job bank profile as well. However I had to create a new Job Bank profile with a new email address. It wouldn't let me re-register with the same email address. Seems a bit crazy that you will have to use a different email address for the...

    Profile ineligible after recreating

    Yep I just realised that I didn't enter the ECA properly for my degree. I won't let me change it so I am recreating another profile again now.

    Profile ineligible after recreating

    No it hasn't got as far as requesting a Job Bank registration. It has just gone straight to ineligible. It says... "If your profile is ineligible, it means that you are not eligible for Express Entry based on the information you provided." But it doesn't tell me why. I have entered exactly...

    Profile ineligible after recreating

    Hi, I originally created a profile for EE in March. I have since been advised to recreate it in order to possibly qualify for the Ontario PNP. I have now recreated my profile but it says I am ineligible. None of my details have changed since my original profile. Has anyone else experienced...

    Examples of obtaining LMIA?

    I have 133 on IETLS which I believe is CLB9/10. I believe the max score for IETS is 136 so I could improve it by 3 points but that is a drop in the ocean. Outside of that I can only improve my score by doing a masters degree or learning French but either of those would obviously take a long...

    Examples of obtaining LMIA?

    Hi, Has anyone got any experience of successfully obtaining a job via LMIA? (Particularly from outside of Canada) I am based in the UK. I am registered on various Canadian job sites and I am getting a lot of interest for jobs. However when I explain my situation and the need for LMIA people go...

    Looking for work as a visitor from the UK for 1 month

    Yes I've done a bit more digging and it seems that the only real requirement is that you have to leave at the end of the trip. Thanks for replying.

    Looking for work as a visitor from the UK for 1 month

    Hi, Does anybody know if it is permitted by boarder control to go to Canada looking for work as a visitor from the UK for 1 month? I do not have a visa. I am in the Express Entry pool waiting patiently for the points to hopefully drop. They say that you can make the most of Express Entry by...

    PNP vs LMIA?

    Okay thanks. I will have a better look at the PNP process for Ontario. So hopefully my plan will be to go to Toronto and try and get a tentative job offer on the basis that I get residence status approved and then use that offer for a PNP application. If I am unsuccessful then I guess I will...

    PNP vs LMIA?

    Hi, Is there a difference between getting a job offer through LMIA or PNP? Is the PNP process less stringent in that you don't have to have a job offer that has been through the LMIA process to qualify? Basically can you be offered a job by an employer on the basis that you get residence...

    The reality of getting a job through LMIA?

    Right so are you moving to Canada via a work transfer from your existing employer?

    The reality of getting a job through LMIA?

    Thanks all. It might not be what I want to hear but it is all very useful information. @archjap - You say that you have a job offer but you don't have a LMIA or PNP? So can you tentatively agree work with an employer pending successful visa approval? Can this then be used a case for visa...
