Express Entry Step by step instructions.

Pls i would like to know this.
I am filling out my form after receiving ITA, all my docs are not ready but will be available soon. After filling out form and waiting for the documents is there room for making changes to the form before the docs are uploaded and submitted.

I am at the point where all the check marks for the form is complete. A little bit scared to hit the continue button as I might have some changes to make

Hi,

Yes, after clicking continue you can always go back. In fact, every time you log in it will first take you to the page where you can update your application.

All the best

Yes it will not appear untill i m not complete, i did complete then i see option continue application but when i click that it always went down

This seem to be a technical fault then. Keep trying to contact IRCC.

Filling out my post ITA profile. few doubts again
1.I've mentioned address history exactly from my 18th birthday. Should this exact 18th bday date be reflected in personal history. Because I started university when I was 17. would I put the start date for education as the actual date or the date from 18th bday( as mentioned in address history )would suffice?

2. Level of education: where does engineering come under? is it "other" or applied sciences?

Hi,

1) Put the actual dates. It does not matter if it was before your 18th birthday.
2) It definitely falls under applied sciences.

Hi,

Preferably 6 months, but if not, you must show the source of you funds. e.g gift deeds or agreements of sale.

Hello people I want to ask 1 imp question.
My crs score.is 473 and I have not yet started the process. today I sent documents to Wes and got the reference number. With that reference number I can create profile. I assume if I create profile I will get ita in the next draw because my score is good. But I have problem with the funds I don't have funds available with me and I have heard the amount in bank should be 6 months old. If I will get ita then I need to upload proof of funds and it will not be 6 months old. It will be like 15-20 days old.
Should I transfer money into my account and wait for 6 months or should I start the process.

I really could nt understand why you guys wanted to put bank statements as proof of funds.. CIC will never ask you for the statements they only ask for the letter which shows outstanding balance and debts.


they dont care if it is 6 months old or something. you will be good as long as you having it currently in your account:
These funds could be in the form of:

• cash,
• documents that show property or capital payable to you (such as stocks, bonds, debentures, treasury bills, etc.), or
• documents that guarantee payment of a set amount of money, which are payable to you (such as bankers’ drafts, cheques, travellers’ cheques or money orders).

You are correct in saying that CIC want a bank letter, however they can ask for a bank statement at any time.

"they dont care if it is 6 months old or something. you will be good as long as you having it currently in your account:"

The above is wrong and may lead to rejection. CIC want to know the average balance and the current balance. If there is a significant difference between the two they would need to know the source of your funds. You can not just have an unexplained influx of funds into your account.

The above is also incorrect. It is stated in reference to funds that must be declared to immigration when entering Canada, not to POF when applying for PR.

One can not submit property documents as POF. They must be liquidated first.

No, it won't cause problems at all. Just mention it in your LOE. To them it is irrelevant information so they do not need any evidence of it. This is why you can move it to personal history.

Regards

Ok, what should I mention in the LOE. Is there any template for the same.

1) Also for Digital photo upload, do we need to upload 2 photographs? And with the information of the photographer to be included on the back of the photo as well?
2) For surname change of my spouse post marriage, do I need to upload the Post Marriage Name difference legal document in the "Other Names" section for her. Also where do I need to upload the Birth Certificates?

3) I have recently joined a new organization. Its difficult to obtain the reference letter from them mentioning my duties and responsibilities. However, I have the offer letter and the salary slips. But For the earlier organizations, I have all the relevant documents available(mentioned in the EE profile
). How should I handle this scenario? Will the offer letter + salary slips from current employer suffice?

3) When i.e in which scenario should I use the letter of explanation(LOE).Can you share any format for the same how to write it.

4) Once I complete the forms and generate the document checklist, can I still go back and update the forms.

Request you to reply asap as my date of submission is nearing.

Thanks
