Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[rajkamalmohanram]

Hi !


I received an email on 8th April to submit my passport to the consulate to get the permanent residency visa stamped, which I will be doing in 2 days.

I have certain questions regarding entry:

1. Within how many months after getting the visa stamped do I need to enter Canada?

This will be mentioned in your COPR. Usually, it is before 12 months from the date of your medical exam.

2. What are the activities that I must complete during my first visit to Canada in order to get myself the PR card.

Check this --->

You don't need to separately apply for a PR card. The IO will ask for a Canadian Address where the PR card has to be mailed. If you don't have an address, you can update it via your myCIC account at a later point in time.

Please note that PR cards will not be mailed to addresses out of Canada.


3. I am currently working in Dubai, looking at the global economy I don't intend to leave my job currently. So what is the minimum time I need to stay in canada during the first visit to get the PR card.

You can land and return to Dubai the very next day. After you land, apply for your SIN.

When you want to come back to Canada, you need your PR card. If you don't have your PR card, you will have to apply for a PRTD (One time travel document). You can apply for this at the Canadian High Commission at in your country.

Hi Experts,

I have got ITA to apply and I am gathering all documents.
My Work permit is expiring in 4 months. After submitting the documents for EE, Can I also apply for WP extension through my company.
Will it be a valid process or will this impact my Express entry process?
Can these both exist in parallel what if my WP extension comes first before PR and what PR comes first.

Please advise on the probabilities. I am little confused here.


Regards.

Hello All,
I have got my IELTS results and WES eval.
I am not sure about CRS calculation but it seems I am scoring approx 379-389 points
as my IELTS score crashed in reading and writing and I scored only 6 in each, listening and speaking were 9 and 7.

1. Do I have any chance?
2 Should I retake the test and apply.
3. As I dont have any canadian edu or work exp. How can i maximize my score? Is language test the only way out?
4. Does other folks who are scoring more than 430-450 does having max language and canadian exp or edu?

Once you submit your EE profile and your "R10" is fine, you might be eligible to apply for a BOWP. I don't think this will impact your PR application in any way. CIC usually takes 4.5 to 6 months to finalize your PR application. In the mean time, you might get your BOWP - no big deal. Until a decision is made on your BOWP application, I believe you can remain on implied status in Canada.

A score of 441 is possible for a candidate with a Bachelor's degree and CLB9. To go over that you need Canadian experience, relatives, Master's Degree, PNP etc.

I guess you are talking about WES evaluation. If I am correct, then you have to create two login accounts with WES (1 for you and other for your spouse) which will generate two reference numbers. You have to collect all your and your spouse's academic documents required and pack them in sealed envelopes and send them to WES. For more details, go through this post...

Hello guys,

Thanks a ton for your help so far.
Much appreciated!

Could you also advise, in case we are not able to approach current employer for job reference letter, what could be the alternative?

1) I have offer, appointment, compensation letter and payslips.
2) I can also ask colleague to sign a similar job reference letter on plain paper.

Regards,
Aditya

i am dentist as well n same problem with me either. i think its better to show experience as a dentist in other clinic.

What is your CRS if you mark her as a non-accompanying dependent?

Yes, this is possible - You can land first and you can bring her in via spousal sponsorship but from what I hear, that is a long and tedious process.

If I mark my wife as a non-accompanying dependents my CRS will be 472.
Is it better to wait with my current CRS 455 for province nomination or direct ITA or apply for it alone?
Thanks for your reply

Do i need to send my HSC SSC (10th or 12th Grade) certificate to them?
