Express Entry in a nutshell

[CanEEPR]

Hi,

I have worked for same company(different units) at two different locations in last 7 years . I got the reference letter from the company which mentions the name of both the company units along with duration for each unit. But it just mentions my last designation. same NOC code is applicable for both .
Should I mention this work tenure as a single entry in my work history and personal history or two different work experience and upload the same reference letter for both work experience.

Please advise.

Hi
I am sending my documents to WES. I have two degrees (BE and MBA) from the same university. I got two sealed envelope from them.

Do I need to send
1. two couriers or
2. put both papers in one sealed envelope or
3. 2 sealed envelope in one big envelope?

Thanks
Claire

Have the 2 envelopes you got from universities as it is. Do not alter the envelopes provided by your university in anyway. If the flap of the envelope is not sealed, seal it now. Get another envelope and place both your degree certificates in there. Now, place all these 3 envelopes inside a bigger envelope and send it to WES.

Since the locations are different, IMO, you should mention it twice and upload the same ref letter for both the entries. Write a LOE to help the officer understand why you have uploaded the same letter in 2 different place holders.

Do you mean, I need to keep a third envelope with a copy of my degree certificates (apart from the transcripts set)? but WES did not specify that in their website!!

Check again! You are an applicant with degrees from India, isn't it?

I got the below documents from my University
1. Degree certificated attested
2. Consolidated mark sheets attested
3. A letter from University for non issuance of Semester wise mark sheets.

WES says
1. Final or Provisional Degree Certificate
2. Annual Statement of Marks / Academic Transcript

As I am attaching my degree certificate in the envelope(attested by Univ.), does it necessary to keep a separate copy? As WES says not to send any photocopies.

Please clarify.
Thanks
Claire

Any comment on points cut off, I have only 381 :'( and wondering if I have any chance, hearing a lot about points to come down!!!

Please select India and click on "university education". Please read point 1 under the " Required documents". Please note there is an "and" in between point 1 and point 2. Point 2 asks for the university transcripts AND point 1 asks you to send legible copies of degree/provisional certificates!

I'm sure this is not what you want to hear but it is extremely unlikely for the scores to go below 440 this year. Please try to improve your score - You have the following options:

1) Get CLB 9 in IELTS.
2) Get ECA and IELTS done for spouse (if applicable).
3) Secure a PNP. This will add 600 points to your CRS.

The other long term options are getting a degree and/or gaining more work experience.

Thank you! I will send a copy of degree certificate too!!

So I had my upfront medicals done about three weeks ago. Just looked at the information sheet I got however, which says this:

IME: Non EDE
Upfront Medical Type: Worker

Now, I'm applying for PR, and my medical type is for 'Worker' Visa, I assume. Is this an issue? If so, what can I do? I haven't actually submitted the application yet, so if I need to go get an amended information sheet or even another round of medicals, I can do so.

What you have got is perfectly fine! Go ahead and submit the application!
