Sorry missed your reply earlier.

Changes that don't affect CRS are fine, otherwise they wouldn't have made the fields editable. It's not like they're trying to trap you after you filled in the profile the first time. If something needs explanation, you mention it in the LOE. Increasing funds does not really need any explanation. The more the merrier!
Thank you! Just needed the reassurance of what I am filling is right and you seem to always give a valid explanation.

Hi,
I was wondering for the question in PR application, how much money are you bringing to Canada. I had kept $12,700 but one of my friend suggested to put it as $13,000 in case it increases in the future. Since I have already kept that amount in my express entry profile I do not want to change it in the PR application. If the minimum amt is increased in the future before I receive my PR card, will my application be rejected or it is exempted as I had applied before the new amount was enforced.
It's fine with the same. If it is just for just backup then only go ahead. Otherwise it hardly matters. They won't catch you for that.

If you have points higher than the cut-off score, you will be selected immediately. If you score is exactly the same as the cut-off, they will pick whoever created their profile first.

Check the link in my signature, and CTRL+F to go the education section.

In cases where an applicant’s background information suggests that a Canadian education credential may have been obtained via distance learning either abroad or while present in Canada, it is at the officer’s discretion to request for supporting documentation.
  • If it is determined that the applicant obtained more than 50 percent of their education via distance learning, the applicant should not be awarded additional Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points for having a Canadian education credential. If the reduction in CRS points results in the applicant having a score below the minimum CRS, the application should be refused per A11.2.

You can get invitation for the draw once you qualify the eligibility check and score relevant points as per the Comprehensive Ranking System i.e. CRS.

Moreover, Express Entry draws are held on approximately fortnightly basis wherein they take out the relevant scores accepted and invitations issued in that particular draw. You need to updated with such draws.

Oh thanks a lot... this was my biggest concern because currently my score is above the last draw that happened on 4th September so i am hoping that may be i get lucky enough in the next draw itself.... But one of my know person told me that i would be eligible for 20th October or later draw only so i got a bit concerned.. But yes you answer helped me a lot... Thanks a ton

Hi Guys

After so much struggle, I think I have found a NOC code that somewhat matches with my job description.
BUT I AM NOT SURE.

My job title is Product Development Manager in a firm dealing in textiles. Job duties are below:


- Compiling market intelligence reports and presenting proposals for carrying out research and development activity
- Provides in-depth information to interested clients, and acts as a representative for the marketing department in important buyer meetings
- Working with existing clients for new products development and working on extending product lines as per market trends
- Working on research and development with existing clients for improvements in existing products as per need
- Working on needs and requirements of new prospective clients and prepare proposals in terms of products range to offer
- Researching the market trends and carry out research and development with existing clients for improvements in existing products as per need
- Consulting with clients on the developing the optimal specifications of products under development
- Play active role in developing, implementing and standardizing policies and practices for research and development process used in the organization
- Mange the roles assignment amongst subordinates
- Recruit, manage and train new team members based on the job roles assigned
- Help marketing teams in preparing products range for customer exhibitions and meetings



There are two NOCs that somehow match to these JDs.

NOC 0124 Advertising, marketing and public relations managers

Lead statement
Advertising, marketing, public relations and e-business managers plan, organize, direct, control and evaluate the activities of establishments and departments involved in commercial, industrial and e-business advertising, marketing and public relations. They are employed by commercial and industrial establishments, government departments, and advertising, marketing and public relations firms or consulting businesses.

Job Duties Marketing managers
Establish distribution networks for products and services, initiate market research studies and analyze their findings, assist in product development, and direct and evaluate the marketing strategies of establishments.


NOC 0212 Architecture and science managers

Lead Statement
Architecture and science managers plan, organize, direct, control and evaluate the activities of an architecture, landscape architecture, scientific or statistical department, service or firm. They are employed by a wide range of private sector and government establishments as well as by architectural firms and scientific research companies.

Main duties
Architecture and science managers perform some or all of the following duties:
- Plan, organize, direct, control and evaluate the activities and operations of an architecture, landscape architecture, scientific research and development laboratory or quality control department, service or firm
- Develop and implement policies, standards and procedures for the architectural, scientific and technical work performed in the department, service, laboratory or firm
- Assign, co-ordinate and review the technical work of the department or project teams
- Recruit personnel and oversee development and maintenance of staff competence in required areas
- May participate directly in the design, development and inspection of technical projects or in the theoretical or applied scientific work of the department
- May consult and negotiate with clients to prepare specifications, explain proposals or present architectural or scientific research reports and findings.


I think NOC 0212 matches well with mine. However the title mentioned (Architecture and science managers) doesn't suit well.

Please help advise your expert thoughts on this.
