Hello guys, I hope someone would be able to answer me here. So I'm on Post-grad work permit in Canada, graduated recently so I do not have the one year Canadian work experience yet (Still searching for a full-time job). However, I have work experience from my home country after I graduated from High school. I worked as an administrative assistant from Mid 2005- August 2008. I want to use this experience to enter the Express entry pool but I have two concerns:

1. In all my previous applications to CIC (Study permit application/renewal, TRV application/Renewal etc) I have never included this work experience in those applications where they ask work history since ten years ago (I just put student). Would it be a problem if I now use this work experience to apply for Express Entry?

2. My salary was paid in cash, so no pay stub, bank statement or you name it. How would I be able to prove this to CIC?

I would highly appreciate it if someone would provide detailed answers to my questions.

Thanks.

Hi All,

I recently got ontario nomination but my profile expired before I could get ITA. I need to create a new profile and need help on following 2 points:

1. In the Principal Applicant > Immigration history & citizenships section , there is question:
Applicant Name> applied to IRCC before"Have <Applicant Name> applied to IRCC before" Should I say No or Yes considering following 2 things:
(i) I had a business travel to Canada in year 2014. Do we have UCI in business travels ? If I should say Yes considering this, then where do I get the UCI and which EE profile number should I mention. Do we apply business visa also using EE profile (in 2014) ?
(ii) I have an expired profile for which I got nomination but no ITA.

2. I got promoted in Feb , but didn't inform OINP or change in EE bcz that won't affect points. Should I bother doing it now ? I won't get a new duty letter I think.

Should I really bother about above points or simply I simply create my new profile as exact copy of old one ignoring these ?

Hi ,

Greetings !

I have gone through your post , Trust you are doing very good work . Thanks for your all hardwork

I have calculated my CSR on CIS website which comes to 373 and my wife IELTS exam is scheduled on this month end and we hope will make our CSR point to 391 -393. what i understand is the possible way to get PR is to apply PNP program . I am IT engineer with 9+ years of experience

Do you think we are eligible to apply PNP with this CSR points ? ( want to move Ontario , BC or alberta )

Shall i Proceed to create my EE profile now and if yes , would I be able to amend my wife language test result later in the same profile ??

Many thanks in advance !! Cheers !

Help!

My IELTS exam will be 4 day from now. I reviewed my application online and noticed that the passport ID uploaded is not clear enough on the signature part but other details are okay. I can no longer upload a clearer version because it's already locked for editing.
Will I be rejected to take the exam on the test date? Please help me. I'm panicking now. :'(

Take a photocopy of your passport with you on the day of your exam and submit at the centre. Don not worry.

Good Luck for your exam. :)

Ontario is the only province which has a minimum CRS for PNP.
The minimum CRS for Ontario is 400 for the English-speaking stream. For the French-speaking stream, there is no minimum.

BC and Alberta do not have a minimum CRS. But Alberta requires you to have a job offer. And for BC, you must either have a job offer, or you must have completed a post-grad qualification at a BC university.

If you create your profile now, you can add your wife's language results late.

Many thanks in advance !! Cheers !

I am planning to send my responsibilities to noc@workingincanada.gc.ca to get a opinion on my responsibilities. I am thinking two NOCs (2173 or 2174). Just emailing them to get their opinion on the NOC so that I could attach that email as evidence for my NOC claim while submitting the documents, if I happen to get an ITA.

My question is .. will it be a problem if they respond with a completely different NOC by any chance, and then I claim one of those NOC by myself? I saw someone mentioning to hide our personal details while emailing them. Is it required to do so?

They do not need your personal details anyway. You can remove it from the letter.It is unlikely for them to come up with a "completely different NOC" and even if they do, it is because of the roles you provided them with. If that happens, then you might want to re-visit and modify your roles to match the NOC more aptly.

Thank you. I saw some old threads of people getting irrelevant responses from them, so had the question.

Just copy pasting the responsibilities, along with designation in the body of the email would be sufficient right? Is it mandatory to provide education too?

Yes, that will do! When I submitted my roles to them, they got back asking about my education. Its okay if you do not mention it too!

My sister IELTS result is:
R-7,5
L-6,5
S-6
W-5,5
Can she create EE profile? Is she eligible considering the fact that her W result is 5,5?
