    Canadian Online Courses

    I am looking into online certificate programs at Canadian institutions (Thompson Rivers, Athabasca, Durham College etc.). Are online certificate programs eligible for extra points in express entry? I do NOT need a student visa as I wish to take the courses in my home country. I am doing this...

    ONTARIO PNP - PRE-SCREENING!

    Maybe they allocated 2500 for the "base stream" applications and 2700 for other streams (like express entry, investors etc)? It's so frustrating when we started the process back in April this year, yet I've seen people getting nominated within 6-8 weeks via express entry stream!! How is that fair??

    Can I apply for an open work permit?

    I am working here on an IEC permit that expires in Feb 2016. My employer has applied for the Ontario PNP pre-screening back in April but this hasn't been approved yet and it's unlikely to come in time for Feb next year. My employer also considered applying for an LMIA but it's very unlikely to...

    ONTARIO PNP - PRE-SCREENING!

    Thanks for the update. I can't believe it took so long for pre-screening! Did you get the full nomination since you last posted? I have been waiting since April this year, although they requested more documents in June and then some further clarification documents in September. We emailed them...

    ONTARIO PNP - PRE-SCREENING!

    I would agree with you but there's no other option for me as I'm on an LMIA-exempt permit and don't have enough points for an ITA without Provincial Nomination. I'm more annoyed at the fact that they have been approving full nominations for some express entry candidates within 3 months yet...

    An officer called my employer last week requesting more documents, including my pay stubs for the last 3 months, company T4 and list of duties. We sent the additional documents 1 day later. My employer emailed for an update last Friday and they replied within 1 hour, saying that they've received...

    ONTARIO PNP - PRE-SCREENING!

    Holy shoot..that's insane! My permit expires March 2016 and I was hoping to have at least the nomination certificate and have an ITA in Express Entry by then. Unfortunately my points are below 400. When March 2016 comes, I'm going to have to leave the country or stay on a visitor permit because...

    ONTARIO PNP - PRE-SCREENING!

    It is one huge joke! According to this forum, it seems like they are processing the Express Entry human capital candidates first yet there has been many people waiting for many months just for an answer on their Pre-screening application! Very frustrating >:(

    My employer applied for pre-screening on May 4th. They then requested missing documents on May 7th and my employer sent the completed application June 1st. As the 90 day processing period passed last week, my employer sent an email requesting an update and they replied with this: "Thank you...
