Hi
Has anyone who submitted their eAPR application faced any problem when paying the fees online?
And if there is a problem or error in the transaction is it possible to go back to your application and try to submit then pay another day? Or do you get only on chance to pay after submission? I am very worried can anyone help

Hi. First thanks for effort, your post is awesome. My question is I completed my EE and now it's saying I'm ineligible for EE. before filling the profile I checked with exactly same information and the tool told me I am eligible. I can't sign up for job bank too because I don't have a Job seeker validation code. who gets that code? and why couldn't I enter EE pool? please help me.

Dear @TanakaM
Hope you are doing well.
I am creating my profile for Express Entry – Federal Skilled Worker and have a CRS score of 441. I would be grateful if you could help me with the following concerns I have, related to the application process (apologies for the long post):
1. Rejection of Work Permit - In May this year, my current organization applied for my work permit for Canada, which was rejected by Government of Canada (IRCC). It was applied under the LMIA exempt category for internal transfer and below is the reason for the rejection.
" Thankyou for your interest in working in Canada. After careful review of your work permit application and supporting documentation under the International Mobility Program, I have determined that your application does not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR). I am refusing your application on the following grounds:
· You have not demonstrated that you come within the exceptions under section 186 of the
IPRR exempting you from the requirement to obtain a work permit or that your employment in Canada comes within the exceptions to section 203 of the IPRR. As a result, your offer of employment must be the subject of an economic effect determination before a work permit can be issued to you. Your employer in Canada should contact the local office of the Department of Employment and Social Development Canada to begin this process.
· I am not satisfied that you possess a high standard of specialized knowledge, including advanced proprietary knowledge. Therefore, you are not eligible for an LMIA exempt work permit under 205 (a) – intra-company transferee, specialized knowledge.
You are welcome to reapply if you feel that you can respond to these concerns and can demonstrate that situation meets the requirements.”
I have mentioned the UCI number in my EE application. My concern is that will this rejection be a factor in deciding the fate of my PR application also (at any stage of the process)? If yes, what is the best way to minimize the effect of the same and ensure success of the PR application.
2. NOC Code – My total work experience is more than 8 years within India, spread across two MNCs in the following manner:
Company A – As a Business Analyst (nearest matching NOC code 2171) – 4.5 years
Company B – As a Business Analyst (nearest matching NOC code 2171) – 2.25 years
Company A (once again) – As a Manager (nearest matching NOC code 0213) – 1.75 years
Although I am comfortable with taking up either Analyst or Manager role in Canada, I can see that there are a greater number of opportunities for Analyst role.
I am therefore concerned regarding which code to select for my primary occupation.
· Does the primary occupation necessarily have to be my latest occupation?
· Is it OK to select an occupation (analyst) that is one level lower than my current occupation (manager)?
· Does the primary occupation chosen by me have an impact on my application process?
· Does the primary occupation chosen by me also have an impact on the Job I get once I reach Canada?
3. Considering my situation, should I go through an immigration consultancy or is my situation not as complicated as I am perceiving it to be.
I will be really obliged for your help and guidance on these areas.
Thanks

two weeks ago I made my profile, and my score was 447 and was a candidate.
just today, I received this new message that I was no longer eligible to be in the express entry pool. has any of the rules changed? how can this be possible?
we have nothing changed in our profile since two weeks ago.

Hi,
The only thing I can think off is that your IELTS or ECA is no longer valid, i.e IELTS more than 2 years old and ECA 5 years old.

Thanks for your response. Kindly tell me about the latest change for biometrics.. like applicants after 31st dec are required to submit biometrics.. how it works ?
hi Team,
1 week earlier i created my express entry profile at the time my score was coming as 462, but today the status of the application says that i am ineligible for express entry. at the time of submission it was showing as eligible- i have a masters degree and have 1 year of work experience in the field, ielts score is l-8, r-9, w-7,s-7. and i have blood relation as well in canada. Can you please let me know if there are any changes to immigration policy for express entry? Also do we need to send bio metrics at the time of creating the application-i havent sent it and can this be the reason?
Thanks!
