Hello everyone!
I got a message from CIC today which says the following:
Congratulations. You are now a candidate for immigration to Canada.
You should think about how you will find a job in your field if you become permanent resident. Starting now will give you and your family members the best chance at finding a job that matches your skills, qualifications and work experience.
You can research:
• areas where workers in your field are in high demand, and
• what is required for your job and similar jobs you might be interested in.
In most cases, the things you need to find a job in Canada are different than for immigrating. This means you might need a new assessment of your education, skills, work experience and/or language skills to get a job in your field.
Gather your documents before you come to Canada to make the process easier. For example:
• degrees
• school transcripts
• proof of work history
• employer references, etc.
In Canada, some jobs are regulated to protect public health and safety. To work in a regulated job, you will need a licence or certificate from the regulatory body for your profession in the province or territory you want to live in.
You may need to submit certain documents, upgrade your education, and get on-the-job experience before you get a license or certificate to practice. Without a license or certificate, you will not be able to work in a regulated job in Canada. It can take time to get a license in Canada. Consider working in a related job while getting your license.
There are many other resources that can help you research how to work in your job in Canada. Check the website for the province or territory you want to live in to find out more.
If you are accepted to come to Canada, you can get free services before you come that will help you:
• learn about life in Canada
• find a job
• take steps to get your credentials recognized and
• you will also learn about other free services available after you arrive in Canada.
There are also free services to help you adjust to life in Canada once you arrive.
Sincerely,
Integration and Foreign Credential Referral Office
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
I submitted my EE profile in June, 2017. My NOC is 2173 (Software engineers and developers). Additionally, my Express Entry Profile Status says "You are a candidate. We will send you a message if you are invited to apply.". I haven't logged in to my CIC account for about 3-4 months. So I don't remember if this Profile Status has been like this all this time.
Also, I'm yet to receive an ITA.
Could someone please help me out here? Is there anyone who faced a similar issue?
Thanks in advance!
