I am a bit confused as to what stage I am at ? BGC was NA, passed medicals and then changed to we will send u a message when we start your background check, then again NA, now it says we are processing your background check..
That's IP2 if you are FSW-O then expect your PPR within 48 hours.

Dear,
I have a question regarding my educational background and my job experience. I am planning to apply under under express entry stream post my IELTS exam, if I happen to get the required band score. So I have decided to hire the services of an agent and that agent has said that my work experience is not relevant to my educational background, which is very disheartening for me. My profile is mentioned below:
I did my graduation (Bachelor in computer applications) and post graduation (Masters in computer applications 2008 pass-out) both regular courses and got them assessed from WES. My masters is equivalent to Canada's master degree. I have been working in a bank for the past 9 years and my job duties entail internal bank branch's operations like cash handling, ATM servicing, handling customer queries, opening saving accounts, handling loan applications and sanctioning loans. These set of job duties match the job duties outlined for NOC 6235 Financial sales representatives. My aforementioned facts beg the question that does work experience and educational back ground necessarily need to match and have relevance to each other?? I am in a dilemma.

Kindly help and guide.
In my opinion, your best course of action is to get rid of your agent/consultant. Do the EE profile by yourself. Most of us here - including myself - did it without using any agent/consultant/lawyer.

Create your EE profile since you already have IELTS & WES. Applying using NOC 6235 and show the work experience under Work History Section for which you can get reference letter as per CIC's format.

Apply - submit your EE application. Let CIC make the decision if your education and work experience needs to be in relation or not.

Hi everyone, i want to know, do we need have to sign the LETTER OF EXPLANATION ??

I have seen some people talking about it previously. But I didn't find any such requirement on CIC. I will really appreciate the help if someone can guide me about it.

thanks in advance!
It's not mandatory to sign LOE. However, it is recommended to do so.

Hi,
I created my express entry profile in october. recently i improved my ielts scores and now my scores have gone upto 433. Should i expect an NOI from ontario? Im working as a business analyst in an IT company. Or do you think the next draw will go as low as 433?
One can only speculate the CRS cutoff. You have a high chance to obtain ITA before Jan or Feb mid-week.
As for now, ONIP has closed the registration as they have reached the quotas. Unfortunately, you have to wait till Jan either-way.

Hello. I am from india.
My question is regarding proof of funds. At what stage do we need to put funds in bank account??
Six months prior to the application. They need past 6 months average balance and advised to put 6 months statements. SO don't put a bulk of money suddenly in the account near to eapr.

It normally happens in NA2 after your initial eligibility check has been done and recommendations have been given.

You won't get a notification.

Regards
@TanakaM ...i have received a request for an updated police certificate and traffic record. The letter says I need to upload it in 7 days of the date of the letter. I have received confirmation that the police check is done and the certificate has been posted. I will not get that in the required 7 days.
I went to upload the traffic report and proof from the police that the certificate has been sent.In my CIC account its says the documents required by January 8. I am confused what should I do? If I wait for the certificate I miss the 7 day deadline , but myCIC account says January 8 . I will surely get the certificate by the end of this week.

There are various PNP programs and each has its own eligibility.

Like Ontario : they issue NOIs
Nova scotia : it opens and closes you need to track it
Please check the various sites to know the process.
