    New Express Entry ranking system will be applied on Nov 19th (detail inside!)

    The TEF is like the same as the IELTS. I had to write a newspaper article based on a headline they gave me and I had to write an article about it. Be smart and don't make to too difficult for yourselves (use easy tenses for instance, ...). I had to do a second writing part as well but can't...

    New Express Entry ranking system will be applied on Nov 19th (detail inside!)

    Hi all, In order to improve my score I recently did the French language test (TEF) and got an extra 12 points (got 471 in total know). I read before the changes were confirmed that people with a good knowledge of English AND French will be rewarded more (because of the French) than they do now...

    Proof of Funds (Express Entry)

    I redid the 'are you eligible...' test online and they only ask 'How much many will you bring to Canada'. So they don't ask: How much money do you currently have. I was under the impression, and still am, that we are going to sell our house once we get our VISA and then the liquids won't be any...

    Proof of Funds (Express Entry)

    I can't post links but it came from this canadavisa.com form but from 2010... So maybe that's outdated...

    Proof of Funds (Express Entry)

    I don't remember what exactly was asked but I probably said yes to having the funds because I thought that our house we own also counted. I even just found a link stating it does on a form but I already read the form and everyone says it doesn't count unless you have a proof that you already...

    Proof of Funds (Express Entry)

    Hi all, I have a question about my proof of funds current situation. We are currently in the pool with 471 points so I think there is a fair chance of getting selected any time now. I have been saving for a while now and at the moment I have 8500CAD in my account. I am coming with my wife...

    e-mail 'your application has been updated' - see no change

    Hi everyone, I received an e-mail some hours ago with the mention of 'Your application has been updated'. However, I see no messages, no ITA, no nomination, no change in my points... Would there be a reason for this? I did not have a birthday and my points remain the same. The only thing I can...

    Proof of funds - car loan...

    Hi, I am currently facing some problems with the proof of funds that will be required. All our money is invested in our own property house. When we (hopefully) get our PR we will sell our house but you need to show proof of funds before (after you get ITA). I already understood that you need to...

    Proof of funds - property payable to you...

    I also found the rule of the 6 months, however the following site explains that there are possibilities to convince the visa officer with documents that you have it at your disposal, even when you received it less than 6 months as a gift. And CIC might accept this, although of is not ideal...

    Proof of funds - property payable to you...

    Since with 458 points an ITA is not so sure I think the best option will be to wait untill we get an ITA and then ask family. I also found that it can not be borrowed so then they need to fill in a special form stating that they give it as a gift and do not want it back. Apparently, they also...

    Proof of funds - property payable to you...

    Hi, As a Belgian couple, we just arrived in the pool with 458 points. As I want to sort out all of our needed documents should we receive an ITA, I have a question about the proof of funds: I stated on our profile that we will bring 30 000 EURO to Canada. The plan is to sell our house, this...
