IMO, you should mention Chennai for the University location.
But it asks for the country of the study, does not it?
I have a similar situation. I did one of my degrees by distance. The university is located in Scotland but I put my home country as a Country of study because I have never been to Scotland.
Am I wrong?

Thanks a lot istari.

My doubt is: In the employment records sections we need to provide reference letter with duties and CIC officer will look the same while reviewing each employment record. Even though i am not claiming the points but as per the guideline of employment record section we need to attach duties letter irrespective of the fact that I am claiming points or not. Please correct if i am wrong.
Better to put it where he is lived and completed the course instead of University's city because it will add up to your personal history and might give a wrong impression on your living status during eAPR

yes, go ahead and apply with the old passport since its not cancelled and returned to you. that happens when you get the new passport. So once you get the new passport the send them an update or upload the changed documents. I am not sure how that happens for PPR but for OINP, fill up change in personal info form and attach supporting documents and mail it to them.

Hello everyone :)
I'm in Ontario Nominee program.
My OINP file has already reached the Ministry of Citizenship, Immigration and International Trade, but I'm still waiting for AOR. Now I want to change my NOC code as per NOC Team recommendation, so I use the "Change of Personal Information" form, (Form 0161E). There is a File Number to be completed. I wonder if this is my EE profile number, or the number that VISA Officer will attribute to my file once they send AOR. In this case, do I need to wait for AOR before making any change?
Thank you in advance for your help.

No Express Entry Draw today ?
Its Wednesday, as based on my observation, it should've taken place today.
Generally, draws take place every 2 weeks. But that isn't strictly true; sometimes there just isn't a draw.

I am bit confused about my express entry profile, I am sure seniors are going to show me the way.


It's about employment history.

I am working for my current employer for more than 7 years. but not in just one position, like my current position is Manager but previously I worked as Assistant Manager and other positions as well but for the same employer and under the same boss.

So how shall I write my employment history?
Just in one entry like start till current date so it will be 7 years
or for each position I worked,I shall create a page and put dates separately and all information separately.

Thanks a lot in advance.

You need a PCC for any country you've spent a total of 6 months or more in.

So for example, if you spent 1 month in Sri Lanka each time you visited, and you visited 6 times, that's a total of 6 months and you need a PCC.

If it's all in the same NOC, you can put it as a single entry.
But if it's in different NOCs (which I assume it is, since you said it's different positions), then I think each NOC needs its own entry.

please put both numbers... in that specific box you need to put your EE number...
but in the actual explanation letter you have to mention your AOR number also...
you are lucky they allowed you to change NOC, i have seen files been rejected for something far less trivial...

good luck

Thank you very much for your quick response, yes I joined in an Entry level position and now I am working as a Manager, my responsibilities are different in different positions, so I believe my NOC will different and I need to put in separate entry.

Do I need to have 3 years job experience under one NOC code if want to claim 25 CRS score(based on IELTS 6) for foreign job experience?

If I have job experience under different codes, but total is 3 years or more will it be fine to get the full point.

Thanks a lot in advance.
