Express Entry in a nutshell

[kafacan]

Thank you Stanlee.

I think the points I received will decrease (as it should be) by doing what you have said.

By the way, even though I checked all the parts, I couldnt find the part about my spouse in the update section...

Login and go to 'View my submitted applications or profiles' and click on 'Check Status and Messages'. You will be taken to the next page where you can click 'View Submitted Application' at the bottom of the page, which will take you to the page which has details of your application with buttons 'Update Form'. The first section will show primary applicant's details and the second section will show dependent's details as given below.

Section I: (Primary Applicant's Name): Candidate Express Entry
Section II: (Dependent's Name): Candidate Express Entry

Under Section II, you will find 'Study and Languages'; click on 'Update Form' for this section, update the relevant details, save, transmit and exit.

After AOR acknowledgement process

Dear Stanlee,

I have received AOR acknowledgement today. And the letter states to follow below mentioned process.

RE: Letter of Acknowledgement
The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) received your Nominee Application Package on November 12, 2015. Please retain this letter for your records.
We will contact you regarding the outcome of your application and/or if we require further information within 90 days from the date your application is considered complete. Please refrain from contacting our office regarding the status of your application within this time period while we review your application.
Please note that as of January 11, 2016 we have updated the instructions regarding ECA reports. Please review the information in the link below and follow the process for the organization with which you have an ECA:
http://www.ontarioimmigration.ca/en/pnp/OI_PNPNEW.html
Thank you for your interest in the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.

Ques 1: I have gone through the link and are asking to pay the fees for direct report to Ontario to be sent by WES. I had already sent original WES copy while submitting the application. Why again need to follow this process?

Ques 2: While following the WES report process, by default amount of CAD 40 approx. is deducted for additional copy. I do not want additional copy. Is there any process for refund? I have already paid CAD 71 as guided by below link:

World Education Services (WES)
All applications to the OINP must include a copy of the applicant’s WES ECA report.
You must also authorize WES to share the results of your ECA report with the OINP:

If you already have an ECA
If you have an existing WES ECA report, you must order a duplicate of the report at: https://www.wes.org/ca/apply/xcopycic.asp. The “Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program, MCIIT” must be indicated as the recipient of the report.

Ques 3: I am not able to understand this part after opening the link: Quote: Comparative Education Service (CES)
Applicants to the OINP must submit a copy of their CES ECA report and must authorize CES to share the results of their ECA with the OINP by filling out the following consent form: http://learn.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Release-Information-Designate-OR-Withdraw-Representation.pdf.

Unquote: Does this details needs to be filled? This details cannot be saved. So one needs to print after filling the details? To which mail id the filled copies needs to be sent?

Please guide on same.

Good day all, please I have an issue that I don't know how to go about it; I have a dependant that's not my biological daughter, she's my niece, the mother who was my only sister is late and she was a single mum before she passed. Now my question is how do I include her in my application? she's 12, I'm the one responsible for her and I have three boys of my own.
I'm eyeing Manitoba and it looks like they have stringent rule about dependant being applicants children. please anyone with knowledge or ideas of how To go about this will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you for your interest in the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.

Ques 1: I have gone through the link and are asking to pay the fees for direct report to Ontario to be sent by WES. I had already sent original WES copy while submitting the application. Why again need to follow this process?

Yes, this is a new requirement from OINP based on its update dated January 11, 2016. OINP wants to verify that the report that you have sent them in the application package matches with the report that would see online. As of now only CIC can view your ECA report online for verification, so to make it available for OINP, you will need to follow the process.

Ques 2: While following the WES report process, by default amount of CAD 40 approx. is deducted for additional copy. I do not want additional copy. Is there any process for refund? I have already paid CAD 71 as guided by below link:

You are eligible to receive a total refund of CAD 41.81. Whenever you place an order on WES for a duplicate copy of your ECA report to be made available to OINP, WES system also charges you for a copy to be made available to CIC (by default). In fact, you need not make the report available to CIC again as it is already available to CIC as per the first payment you made to WES (when you got your educational credentials assessed). So, you can request a refund from WES for CAD 41.81 for the extra report which you did not order (but the system selects it automatically).

World Education Services (WES)
All applications to the OINP must include a copy of the applicant’s WES ECA report.
You must also authorize WES to share the results of your ECA report with the OINP:

If you already have an ECA
If you have an existing WES ECA report, you must order a duplicate of the report at: https://www.wes.org/ca/apply/xcopycic.asp. The “Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program, MCIIT” must be indicated as the recipient of the report.

This would apply only if you have got your ECA done from CES. Based on the fore mentioned points, I understand your ECA was done from WES, in that case, you can ignore this.

Unquote: Does this details needs to be filled? This details cannot be saved. So one needs to print after filling the details? To which mail id the filled copies needs to be sent?

Please guide on same.

Hello @greysky1866,

Have a quick query, did you apply for PNP via the EE (Online process) or the offline one? Could you guide on how and what process you followed.

Hello @greysky1866,

Application to OINP-EE is done offline and physically, exactly what greysky1866 did. But the nomination is sent to Express Entry.

Go to this thread for the steps:
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/oinp-ee-human-capital-priorities-stream-comprehensive-guide-t396543.0.html

You will need a PT notification of interest from Ontario in your Express Entry profile to apply, but right now they are only sending it to francophones/French Speaking Skilled Workers.

I had applied through Express Entry. However, I was nominated by Ontario Province and I accepted the same, so the rules of province will apply till time I get 600 points subjected all my documents are clear.
