Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[istari]

Hi Guys. I have got my PR a couple of months ago and did my landing in may and then came back to my home country in a week. My PR card were mailed to the address provided (family member) and my family member brought it to my home country in-person (so nice of him to do that). Now I am confused if I can travel using the PR card or using COPR (I am in US so can travel by land as well)? If I travel using PR card and if the immigration officer cross verify the dates on my passport then wouldn't they question me on how I got my PR card while I was outside canada? Did anyone does something similar? Please advise.

Just answered this in another thread.

My CRS points are higher than the minimum required in the draw. Is there a possibility that I might not receive ITA?

I guess it depends on the reliability of the mail service in your country, but generally, it should not take this long.

Hi,

I have paid apprenticeship experience of 1 year in Mechanical Engineer from India. The apprenticeship was not a part of study and I did it after my graduation. Can I get points under express entry for this apprenticeship if I show it under my work experience?

Thanks in advance.

IMO, you should be able to claim this if you have reference letters to prove that you were employed AND that you were paid.

I'd contact WES, and let them know it hasn't arrived yet.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has revamped the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) for its Express Entry immigration selection system. The changes, which had been expected for some time, will have a major effect on candidates for immigration to Canada through the three federal programs managed through Express Entry, namely the Federal Skilled Worker Class, the Federal Skilled Trades Class, and the Canadian Experience Class.

The new instructions on Express Entry, which were published in the government of Canada’s official Gazette, come into force on November 19, 2016.

The significant changes to job offers are:

A qualifying job offer is now worth 200 points if the offer is in an occupation contained in a Major Group 00 of the National Occupational Classification (senior managerial level position). These occupations are:
0011 Legislators
0012 Senior government managers and officials
0013 Senior managers – financial, communications and other business services
0014 Senior managers – health, education, social and community services and membership organizations
0015 Senior managers – trade, broadcasting and other services not elsewhere classified.
0016 Senior managers – construction, transportation, production and utilities
A qualifying job offer is now worth 50 points if the offer is any other qualifying offer of arranged employment.
Previously, qualifying job offers supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment were worth 600 points under the CRS. As of November 19, there will be new ways of being awarded either 50 or 200 points without the need to obtain a LMIA (though points will continue to be awarded to individuals with a new or existing LMIA). The new regulations also allow the following individuals to be awarded points for a qualifying job offer:

Individuals with a work permit issued under an international agreement, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
Individuals with a work permit issued under the ‘significant benefits to Canada’ criteria, such as Intra-Company Transfers.
In both above cases, the worker must have been working in Canada for at least one year and the job offer must be made by the same employer named on the work permit.

Hi guys,
Thank you for sharing the information. According to this post, the applicants under the open work permit are not eligible to get 50 points without LMIA.As I am currently under open work permit and a fulltime permanent job offer(with more than a year local work experience),I can not get this point? Does it mean I have to change my status from OWP to WP?How can I do that?How long it would take to change it? Is there somebody with the same situation?

Thank you
