The change of status happens differently for different applicants. Cannot be sure when it will change again - it depends on the officer working on your file. If you want to see a snapshot of the progress on your application, you can try ordering GCMS notes. Good luck!

Hi
I got PCC from UAE police through a friend. But there is some confusion. Pcc shows no criminality record found. And this pcc is required for country Pakistan.
Can this be a problem?
My own thinking is that CIC should be concerned about criminal record. But the name of country should not be an issue.
Wats ur opinion?

Hello Experts,

I have received my wife's ECA report today. Please see Equivalency and they have also mentioned below remark.
Could anyone please suggest if I can get any extra points for this and if yes, then under what stream I need to claim/enter ?

Canadian Equivalency: Five and one-half years of post-secondary study and training in homeopathic medicine

Remarks: The credential is not comparable to a completed Canadian education credential.

Thanks in advance.

Remarks clearly say it's not comparable to Canadian education which means you can't get points for this specific education. You may get for other education.

Hi Seniors,

Recently, I have calculated my CSR score roughly with CIC link and provided below details.

1. IELTS - 7.5
2. WES - M.Sc (Comp Sci)
3. IT Exp - 9+ yrs
4. Wife's IELTS - 6
5. WES - BBM (Accountancy)
6. No work experience in Canada.

NOC: 2171.

After giving above details, I got ~360 as score, which is very to very low score with current trend.

Could you kindly help if I'm missing something here or this is final score if proceed further. I'm from India.

Regards,
Satish

If you keyed in the correct details on the tool, then that is probably your final score. How old are you? You start losing CRS points for age starting at the age of 30 (5 points for every year from 30).

I would suggest you to try and get a CLB-9 in IELTS (8777 in LRWS respectively) . This might improve your score. You can try to secure a provincial nomination that would give you 600 additional points.

There are provinces that do not require relatives, job offers, or past experience in the province.
Read through the eligibility requirements to see which province you could be eligible for: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/summary-of-eligibility-requirements-for-all-express-entry-pnp-streams-t432937.0.html

Most provinces are currently not accepting applications (but they will start again at the end of this year or beginning of next), so keep an eye on the forum to see when they open up again.

Dear Seniors,

I submitted my profile on 14th September after receiving ITA. I have one question which is bothering me. My NOC is 2173 software engineers and designers and I have work experience in this since June 2009 till now (7+ years). Before June 2009, I worked as a teacher in an engineering college for 6 months. My consultant put that 6 months experience also in work history with NOC 4011. But i didn't have any reference letter as per CIC requirement for that 6 months experience (I attached only offer letter and experience letter with payslips).
For my actual NOC (2173- for which i am claiming the points) i attached everything as per CIC requirements.
My consultant told me since i am not claiming points for that 6 months so it won't matter if you attach reference letter or not.
But i am bit worried because i think the CIC officer expects the reference letter under each employment record.
Could anyone please suggest do i need to raise a CSE and attach an LOE explaining them about this?

Work experience you're not claiming points for should've been left out of your Work Experience, and put into your Personal History instead.

As you didn't get points for it, it probably won't be a problem. But if I were you, I would submit a CSE just to be on the safe side.
