Hi all, we took the medical exam three weeks ago. We'd like to know whether we passed. We haven't been called by any local doctors, so that's good news. But I know that the decisions are taken by the CIC doctors, not the ones from our country. Do you know how long it takes for CIC to assess the results? There's an identification number for the e-medical form. Is there a website where I can write it and check the results? It'd be good to know that this step is completed and I can focus on other aspects of the application. Please advise.

No issues - you can just change the amount of funds in your EE profile.

HI GUYS,
PLEASE , HOW DOES SOMONE CREATE A FREE ONLINE EXPRESS ENTRY PROFILE.
WILL THE LINK COME ONLY WHEN YOU ARE ELIGIBLE.

THANX.
Firstly, please don't use all caps. Its not very pleasant to look at. Thanks for your understanding.

If your lawyer claims he his a licensed member of ICCRC, then get his credentials and check for yourself here --->

http://secure.iccrc-crcic.ca/search-new/EN

Secondly, you can create your EE profile by yourself. You need to first check your eligibility and have your language test results (IELTS/CELPIP/TEF) and your Education Credential Assessment (ECA) ready.

Check this link to understand the process --->

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/express-entry-in-a-nutshell-t394158.0.html;msg4915358#msg4915358

The above post contains the links to check if you are eligible. Please check your eligibility first and then proceed.

Feel free to post any further questions that you might have.

Good luck and all the very best!

You will not know if your medicals have passed or not until you submit your PR application.

If you havent submitted your PR application yet, do submit it ASAP. The medicals will be set to passed in around 3 - 14 days after application submission (generally) if everything is okay with your medical test results.

Thankz rajkamalmohanram for your support. Appreciate very much it.
just i put highest IELTS markes for CRS tool. Still it comes 440 points. i think we won't be able to get ITA.
Yes - 440 is still not sufficient to get a direct ITA. You might want to try to secure a provincial nomination. Check the below post to know about various PNPs available --->

Thanks for your help. Do I apply to PR after I receive my ITA or can I do it beforehand as well? I don't have my ITA yet.

You can apply as married and spouse not accompanying to get more points. But I have heard that the process to sponsor your family later takes long and is a bit complicated than including him/her in your PR application now.

Please note, even if your spouse/family is not accompanying you, you still have to get PCC and medicals done for all of them and even show funds for all family members. So, I am not sure whether you would want to pursue this option just for the sake of getting more points. Instead, you can get ECA and IELTS done for your spouse, you can claim up to 10 points for ECA and 20 points for spouse's IELTS.

Check this link on the same topic http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/with-or-without-spouse-t279286.0.html.

Does anyone know if I can also apply to PR if I submitted EE? Also, would I need to have a PNP when applying to PR?

In Express Entry, you have to be invited by CIC to submit your application for PR. This invitation (ITA) is solely based on your CRS score. As per the current trend, you should have a CRS of 468 and above to get a direct invitation to apply for PR (ITA). Once you get an invite to apply for PR, you need to submit an electronic application for permanent residence (eAPR) through your MyCIC account along with supporting documents listed here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp.

In case your CRS is less than what it takes to get direct ITA (currently 468), then you have two options to get ITA
A) Provincial Nominee Program - You can apply to be nominated by a province by submitting nomination application along with supporting documents to a province. If nominated by the province, 600 points will get added to your current CRS making it eligible to receive ITA in the next round of invitation. For PNPs check this link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/provincial/apply-who.asp.

B) Job Offer - If you have an LMIA backed job offer from Canadian employer, it will add 600 points to your existing score which will make you eligible to receive an ITA in the next round of invitation.

No your Masters is not equivalent to qualification certificate issued by a province. As far as I know certificate of qualification issued by a province/territory applies to skilled trades ( which falls under FST, I assume that you are applying under either FSW/CEC).

In Canada, provinces and territories are in charge of education and training. They decide on the standards and conditions used to assess and recognize foreign credentials for certain trades. To get a certificate of qualification, the regulatory body that governs trades in a province or territory must assess the applicant's training, trade experience and skills to decide if the applicant is eligible to write an exam to be certified. Most likely the applicant will have to go to the province to write the certification exam. Each province has its own requirements with regard to certification of trades.
