Hello Friends,

While submitting the education documents for ITA, is it enough to attach degree certificate alone or do we need to provide all marksheets (semester wise). They have provided as degree/diploma certificate alone.

Is WES and IELTS too added with these

If i decline an ITA (as i'm not sure of Work experience criteria being met or not, due to self employment), when will i be eligible again for the draw? WIll it affect my profile negatively? I'm at 433.

It won't. If the cut off score is still lower than your score then you will get the ITA again in next draw.

Thank you! I'm going to wait for the next one. If it goes under 433 or equals 433, i'll withdraw current ITA. otherwise i'll just go ahead and see what happens.

You think the score can get even lower? :eek:

1) Any occupation in type 0, A or B will do, however if you are getting Provincial Nomination they may be looking for specific skills.
2)Yes you have to get all qualifications you are claiming points for assessed. I would send my Masters and Bachelors but visit WES and do the free assessment. This will tell you which ones they recognize.
3)NO, IELTS results a good as they are. In addition, WES only assesses academic qualifications.
Thank you so much TanakaM. It is clear to memknow. ;)

Thanks TanakaM for your reply. I would like to add:

WES will evaluate all your degrees and diplomas within 1 (yes 1) application fee. They will give you Canadian equivalent for each degree you have and finally comment on your highest degree.
.

Thanks etcoflife. You make me relieved. I thought the fee apply for each certificate ;D

Hello guys,

can someone help me with two questions I have POS-ITA?

We are a small company and the accountant is going to make me the work reference letter, since we dont have an official document printed with company letterhead, he is just going to put our logo in the letter document? Does it work? Can the accountant make this letter?
My second question is: I have a work permit under IEC which you cannot extend, which expires in May. I will submit my EE application for Permanent Residency before that date. Will I be automatically in implied status or should I applied for a visitor visa meanwhile I am waiting for PR?

Thank you!

That's correct. It will still be valid!
Hello Raj,
first of all, your first post was a master Piece for me!!! thanks you so much.

meanwhile, I also have a small question regarding PCC. its a situation similar to the above case:

I have received the invitation to apply for permanent residence under the Federal Skilled Workers program on March 1rst 2017.

I was working and living (upon a working visa) at the United Arab Emirates from July 26th .2014 to Oct 23rd 2016.
Before I left the country, I applied the Police Clearance Certificate from an Abu Dhabi police station and it was issued on Oct 8th. 2016 (Ref No. 071477\2016).

On one hand, the official CIC website says and I quote "If you received the police certificate before leaving, the police certificate must be issued within six months before you apply." My Police clearance certificate has been issued for about 5 months until now, which makes it qualified as long as I submit my e-APR before April 8th 2017.

On the other hand, on the lower left corner of the certificate it says, and I quote: "This certificate is valid for three months only".

So in such a case, can I use my existing Police Clearance Certificate? Or do I need to renew or re-apply for a new one?


thanks a lot!!!!

Is your own company? If the accountant is your supervisor, i guess there is no problem. If you are the owner then you need letters from clients, agreements, etc.

Hello

Sorry for posting again.

Can somebody tell me if I need to have fund before starting the express entry application process or I can do it simultaneously eg. keep money when I start my application?

I have already given my IELTS and WES evaluation is done also.

Also can I show a joint account with my father? We can both handle the account with same privileges and have shown this account previously for my study abroad.

I do have personal account but it is rather new.

Thanks in advance for answering.

Regards
Lifehack

Dear Experts,
I recently got the ITA and in the process of uploading the documents. I noticed a change in the job title (not job description or NOC) in one of the past positions. I was a contract hire to the client company and the job title in contract company was 'X' and my job title in client company was 'Y'. I managed to get the employment letter in CIC format from client company with designation 'Y'. However all the payslips and employment contract says job title -'X'. Please advise if I risk rejection, in case I change the job title in the employment history at this stage.

Appreciate all your help.

Thanks and Regards

Hi,
Appreciate help with the below query from experts who have completed the ITA process. Received my ITA this week.

1. Should the forms say Complete when we click on "check completeness". ( for few I am not able to determine the errors).
2. Under Personal details, should I include my education & work experience again?
