Hello, had a query, what happens if we receive the ITA but CRS score reduces due to birthday before submitting all documents?
Thanks
You do not need to worry about it since you have already received an ITA based on your current CRS score.

Hi, I have got my PR via express entry, and spent 1.5 years in Canada, then I got back to India, suppose I don't fulfill the mandatory two years requirement to extend my express entry within 5 years, would I need to apply again??? or are there other options I can pursue.

@JRosh you can even come back in the last 6 months of 5 year period to complete the remaining 1.5 years to renew the PR. The only problem will be that if you are unable to meet 3 years within 5 years ,you won't be able to leave Canada until its met. So you will need to stay extra and meet the reminder and renew your PR and can leave for India.

If you are unable to return back within the 5 year period to complete the reminder period of stay , then you will loss your PR.

Hi after you get your passport stamped and COPR and everything ready for Canada migration, what's the deadline on actually going to Canada? I'm reading the thread it's saying 1 year from medical or passport expiry, whichever comes first. Is this about the deadline? Or is that something else.

There's an expiry date on your CoPR - that's the deadline. It is either tied to the following in the priority: expiry of medicals, expiry of passport, 1 year.

Look at the date of your medicals expiry and the expiry date of your CoPR.

Ahh perfect, my job requires me to give a 3 month notice that's why I was worried. Passport expiry is not an issue, but let's say my medical do expire, is my COPR completely busted or can I revalidate my medicals?

Let me rephrase, depending on what expires before, the expiry date of your CoPR will be decided based on it. This date is already printed on your CoPR and you should land in Canada before it expires. You can do remeds, but that won't change the expriy date of your CoPR.

Shouldn't be a problem as long as the POF documents you provide are in order and make sense.

Up to your personal circumstances. If you have a job, anytime is a good enough time. If you don't have a job or residence or capital sorted out, move during the summer.
Thanks.

If I have a joint USD bank account with my parent in my home country and I keep my funds there, and take my usd bank statement to Canada to show at the airport if they ask, would it be fine? or must I transfer my funds to Canada beforehand?

Then I open an account in Canada after landing and my parent sends the funds from my home country joint USD bank account to Canada. Would this work?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone,

While filling up the Personal History in EE post ITA, should I split my course into two?
My course started from Jan 2021 till April 2022 (Master's) out of which I have done 4 months of remote learning from India due to COVID scenario and remaining portion I was in Canada. So do I have to account for that in my personal history? Or just add it as one single period?

I applied for my study permit on Nov 2020 and due to COVID , there was exemption that student can complete studies once he applies for study permit till it approved. My study permit approval came in March 2021 and then I travelled in April 2021. I was unemployed during that period and was able to find part time job by June 2021. From Oct 2020, I was unemployed and waiting for the visa process and by Jan 2021 started with studies remotely

So basically how do I tabulate these under personal and travel history?

Plzz it's urgent
Hii,
How did you fill your application at that time?
Did you split your education history in two parts? Please reply me. I am in same situation.

!!! Urgent Help Needed !!!

Hi,

I'm helping a friend who's in a tough situation, and I could use some advice. Here are the details:

Received Express Entry ITA: 31st July 2024
Work Permit Expired: 11th August 2024
LMIA from Employer (Dual Intent): Issued on: 1st November 2023 & Expiry: 1st May 2025

If I consider applying for status restoration to get an LMIA-based employer-specific closed work permit since she already has an LMIA. My main concern is whether she will be able to work during this process. (The IRCC website says she can't work while waiting for the status restoration: link)

We're also in the process of submitting her Express Entry profile while she's gathering the necessary documents. Once she receives the Acknowledgment of Receipt (AOR) from IRCC, Can I go ahead with applying for her BOWP along with the restoration of status, and then will she be allowed to work based on BOWP? even though she's still waiting for the restoration of her status, which could take a couple of months.


Thank you.
