Hello,

I received my ITA on November 2nd 2016 and as I was submitting my application, I was asked to fill my travel history. Could someone please help if I need to mention my stay in Singapore for 9 months. Since my return I was issued a new passport. The visa stamp for Singapore is in my old passport. Do I need to show all my old passports when I submit my application. Pleaseee help.

Doing it on your own is fine; most people on this forum are doing it this way.

I have given my IELTS exam and waiting foe results.

You can get your reference letters now. Also make sure you have other documents that may be required in your specific case (marriage certificate, birth certificates and copies PR documents of relatives if you're claiming points for a Canadian relative, birth certificates of dependent children, etc.).

If you checked on CIC website and feeded right information and the site shows non-eligibility then dont proceed. Most of the consultants are not trust worthy and they do not want to loose any client. Try to poke them how I am eligible against website result?? If they go with good reason then You can proceed.

In my case I already missed my PR chance last time in 2013 because of consultant and this time I am planning to do my own.

All the best

If you have acquired 1,560 hours of work experience in 14 months, it is fine, you don't have to necessarily wait for 24 months to achieve 1,560 hours when working part time.

Thanks

Stanlee -

According to the below note, if the applicant worked only one part-time job, he should calculate it at only 15 hours/week and should have worked for 24 months. The additional hours cannot be add

However, if he has worked multiple part-time jobs, then he could have worked 30 (or more) hours a week and can claim 1560 hours in 12 months.

Thanks

Hey guys

I have a new question.....

I have my PR application in and is currently being processed. Recently got asked to pay the RPRF fees, which I promptly made.

Yesterday I got a letter in MYCIC account stating that my passport has less than 12 months validity. It doesn't really say much else, other than once I have renewed it I need to send them a scanned copy to avoid any delays. No time frame or dead line is given or indicated

Anyone else seen this issue? will it delay/halt my application?

Many thanks

I found the answer to this by calling CIC and there has to be a minimum of 6 months validity left before CIC will grant PR

Hello, ı am new to the forum and ı have some questions if anyone is kind to reply. First of all ı am from Turkey and me and my wife are planning to apply for immigration to Canada via Express Entry but we had difficulties to find answers for some spesific questions.
1) Deciding on whom we will make the application. We are both eligibile in NOC list. I am A(translator-interpreter) she is B(chef-cook) but ı have long years of experience but lack a job offer. On the other hand she has less than 1 year experience but may have a job offer. Who should apply and other be dependant?
2) Does having a job offer negate the necesity of having at least 1 year of experience in her job to apply to Express Entry?
3) If we apply on my name, does her job offer affect the points she gains for me or may it be an advantage in being elected for invitation?
4) In my case ı have many years of experience but ı can only prove by confirmation letters from the companies because in my country my job unfortunately wasn't considered to be a legit job and companies aren't obliged to pay our insurance. We even didn't have a job definition by law and free of taxes. We paid our insurance payment ourselves legally but illegaly. There is only 1 year of paid insurance by a Tourism Agency and many years ı paid at my mothers tailor shop.
Will it be a problem?

Hi, a small question - do the provinces practically nominate persons from EE? For example, if one has not applied to provinces separately, is there any chance that they nominate after seeing the EE profile?

Second question, if OINP opens up, does it by default ask all candidates above 400 to submit their documents?
