Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[TanakaM]

Hi,

Just received ITA today and I am completing the PR application form. Two questions are confusing me.

1. Has Omeyimi Madowu Sanni been refused refugee status, or an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) or application to the Provincial nominee Program) or visitor or temporary resident visa, to Canada or any other country?

2. Has Omeyimi Madowu Sanni ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or ordered to leave Canada or any other country?:

Now, I have been refused a student visa to the U.S as well as visiting visa to the U.S before. Do I have to answer yes to both questions or is it only one i answer yes to.
If am answering yes to the first question, do I need to provide details of only the visiting visa or do I have to mention the student visa as well

Also, can answering yes have a detriment on the success of my application?

I need as many replies as possible so i can get this right

Hi,

Answer yes to both of them and give the same explanation in both information boxes. You can also fill in a Schedule A form in advance to avoid delays.

If declared and well explained this should not adversely affect your application. A large number of people have had visa denied in the past so its normal.

All the best

Hi,
Congrats hey.

1) To avoid confusion, why doesn't your husband send his passport to you via DHL (or any other service provider) so that you send them in together?
2) Yes, correct. One must land before the expiry of their medicals.

All the best

Thank you
Since VFS insists to use their own photographs instead of the ones we carry, I thought it was best he goes to the VFS in Mumbai and I do mine in Bangalore?
My sister went for this process last month and they did not accept the photographs she was carrying but instead asked her to get her pics clicked at the VFS branch.

Wanted to check if my husband and I can use my passport request (which is addressed to me since I am the principle applicant) at 2 different VFS offices since we live in 2 different cities?

Pls I need answers, I withdrew my first Express Entry profile because I made mistake in choice of NOC, I then created another profile using the same GCkey, for the past ten days I've been seeing only the old withdrawn profile without seeing the active profile. I've reported technical issue severally without success, my last resort now is to create another profile using a new GCkey, is anything wrong with doing this? Is it wrong to have 2profiles?

For the question above should i disclose my student visa denial by the U.S given that the question is related to a visitor visa. I'm not sure if student visa is classified as a Visitor visa that's why i ask Also what is a schedule A form?

Yes, a student visa can be classed as a temporary resident or an immigrant visa. It is definitely not a visitor's visa.

A schedule form is a form you are asked to fill when you have answered Yes to any of the statutory questions.

1 - Anything that isn't post-secondary is irrelevant to your application.
2 - Include proof of transfer for the money received from your uncle.
3 - Yes, you can remove that work experience but include it in the personal history section.

If the letter doesn't have all the required information it's a good idea to add as much supporting evidence as possible. So I would suggest you add both the appraisal letter and salary slips. Also include this in you LOE.

Thanks. But my salary slip only gives the monthly salary computation and does not mention anything about annual salary. Then effectively what is the use?

Hi all,

I'm finally uploading my documents! Yay!! But I have a question about uploading the copy of my passport. I have one valid and two expired passports. Most of the travels I mentioned in my 'Travel history' are shown in my third expired passport. Many people here advised to upload the old ones too but in the document checklist, there it says:

"You must submit a legible copy of your valid travel document which you will use to travel."

Is there anyone who uploaded his/her valid passport along with the expired one(s) and get approved (or rejected)?

Thank you

I uploaded the passport pages of my old passport where i have travel stamps and visa labels. The instruction there is to include all pages with travel stamps.

Hi Seniors,

I have a bit of a unique problem (hope not).
I worked in an organization under a particular NOC for a little more than a year. I started working in 2013 and was qualified to do this job from the 30th of May 2015 (The day I graduated). I left the company on the 17th of April 2016.

Now, when creating my EE profile I got points for this(for one Year) as you only have to enter the month and the year. hence, the period is 1 whole year. however, do you think it will be an issue after I get my ITA and when I submit my ref letters and degree certificates and transcripts as this period does not amount to exactly one year (365 Days)

Your advice is highly appreciated!

 

[omkies]

Can we change the information we had previously mentioned in the application at the time of accepting the ITA???

Below is my detailed query:-

I had mentioned total work experience of 5 years while uploading my details in Express Entry Pool. Now I have received ITA from CIC.
But now out of the total work ex, one company I worked for 6 months is not ready to provide the experience letter with Job Description.
So I was wondering if while submitted the application after receiving the ITA, can I delete that 6 months experience from the Professional Work experience field? (Since the maximum points I get for my Experience in India (outside canada work experience) is for 3 years work ex, my total score will not change) But will cic compare the info I submit with accepting the Invitation with the one provided at time of Express entry pool? Also should I mention the same in LOE under changes in circumstances?

All experts request your views on the same especially if anyone of you have modified or deleted info at the time of accepting the ITA.
