Hi, I have a very silly question. My job duties matches two NOC codes, 22220(Computer Network and Web Technician) and 22221(User Support Technician). Is there any benefit in selecting one over the other? I am very confused between those NOCs.

Can you declare an employment in your express entry, which was never declared prior in your study and work permit applications?

I have supporting document such as bank statement, pay stubs and joining and leaving letter.

Hello All,

Request your help here. I am new to FSW EE program and plan to apply to immigrate to Canada from India for the first time.

My job profile fits in the 20012 – Computer and information systems managers category.

Below is my profile:

Citizen: India
Education from India: BTech (4 years Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering), will get evaluation done through WES.
Work Experience from India: 7+ years or more exp in Software organization
IELTS English : (yet to take)
Single/Never Married
No Canada work experience or education
No relative in Canada
No job offer from Canada

Self-calculated CRS score: 441

Pls suggest if I should apply in FSW EE program. Do I stand any chance of PR, OR is there any other program I should to consider? Is there anything additional I can do to improve my score/changes for FSW EE?

Also, as I understand as per process, I need to take IELTS and Education Credential before I can submit my EE profile. Let me know if my understanding is correct. Do I need work experience letter as well to submit EE profile?

Thank you for help.

Thank you for help.
You need to pass Eng test (CLB 7 minimum each section) and get ECA ready before creating profile
441 is too low for current pool.
Moreover , IRCC is now prioritizing CEC & PNP, also category based draws. With you NOC you can most likely go under STEM category, but need higher score - at last 490-500
Good luck!

Yes, you need IELTS and Education Credential Evaluation before you submit EE profile. References you will need later you when you get invited. But better prepare it in advance.

You need to maximize your language score to get a higher CRS score.

French can skyrocket your chances and score as well.

. I’m just worried with my PR application, it was updated medical passed and with details of my old biometric done in 2021(showing the expiry date and all) after 43 days I submitted the application. I’m just wondering what’s going on as I didn’t get 2nd biometric request for my PR application. Although, my first application was cancelled, 2 days before I received letter of cancellation the old biometric details was updated but medical wasn’t updated then. I’m just confused and tensed while I’m waiting for further updates. Does anyone have idea of what may possibly be going on

Hi everyone,

I have just submitted my CEC express entry application for PR and it’s been over 18 days since I have submitted but haven’t received Biometrics instructions letter to do. Is it normal?

Please note that I have given biometrics earlier for my temporary residence but I think It will not be accepted for Permanent Residency.

It's 2-3 months of normal wait time for biometrics request.

Your previous biometrics won't be enough, you will need to submit again.

Hi ,
We have a following query about PR:

I am living with my spouse in Manitoba. I have done bachelor's in chemical from India and have 7 years experience(NOC - 21320) in India. After that I pursued master's program in chemical and petroleum engineering from The University of Calgary and done 6 months job under NOC code 21320. My spouse and baby (Canada citizen) is here with me. Right now, from Nov 2023, I am doing health care job (NOC code - 33103) specially to get PR and we both got invitation to apply for PR on 5 July 2024 under healthcare draw and submitted complete PR application for both on 22 July 2024 and received AOR quickly after submitting application.

Can I change job at this stage? I have job offer for chemical process operator - 93101.

Please suggest me , Can we change job after submitting complete PR application under category based draw?

No, you will be still eligible for the health draw. That's all that matters.
I am still not sure. I am doing healthcare job just to get PR. My background (Education and experience) is from strong engineering (Chemical) side. No education for healthcare and no previous experience. But just doing it since Nov , 2023. Are you 100% sure there won't be any issues in PR application?

Then I hope I can change job now, it won't affect my PR application anyways.
