Thanks, man. Also, I see on the vfs website that they DO have walk in passport submission on Saturdays for people who DO NOT book a 2 way courier. This is in select cities and would be ideal. So just to confirm, I do not need to book anything online for this, correct? I can just walk in with my package (Passport + Height Eye colour + 2 photos + Printout of PPR email)? Anything I am missing?

Hello Guys,
I am waiting in the pool for the next FSW Draw with a score of 495.
In the meanwhile I have moved to Canada, Quebec, 3 months ago and started a job, Full time, with a Work Permit(Closed 2 years) and a valid LMIA.
I have two questions please:
Q1 : Does my job offer letter used to get the Work Permit can be considered a valid job offer letter? Can I answer "yes" in the Express entry profile to get the extra 50 points?
Q2: Do I need to have a proof of funds, knowing that I am already established in Canada?
Thanks for answering.

I am not sure if job offer in Quebec will give you points for EE as quebec residents are not eligible for EE. You cannot apply for Express Entry if resident in Quebec. You will need to provide solid proof that you will do not intend to stay in Quebec (which will be hard, seeing as you have a 2 year working contract in Quebec).
I also thought that but apparently it is possible.

The issue here is with the "Valid job offer". To me it doesn't make sense to ask my current employer to make me another job offer letter and state clearly they will employ me if I am accepted as a permanent resident.

If your current employment letter says you are permanently employed and you have a valid LMIA, then going by that second link, you can claim the points.
Before being approved for PR, IRCC will contact you (after you submit your PR application for processing) to provide them with convincing evidence that you intend to leave Quebec once PR is granted. For that you'll need to make sure you have your ducks in a row...
Oh wait, I just saw the part about the letter stating they will employ you for a year after PR. That part is very important as I have seen people reporting refusals because their offer letter did not indicate that (but this were people that applied for PR based on a job offer).
On the flip side, with your current CRS scores I don't think you'll need the extra points. You should be able to get an ITA in the first few draws.
Hi future Canadian neighbors, I really need your opinions. My spouse just got his study permit application approved. He is supposed to start studies in September. I also received an NOI from Ontario and already submitted my application a month ago. I am not sure when I will get nomination. My question is since PR is our main goal (he applied for his visa at that time because we weren't sure I would get a NOI ), should I encourage him to wait patiently till I get the PPR and save the school fees money for something else ? Please note that his school is in Nova Scotia and if I receive nomination and eventually PPR we need to stay in Ontario till Citizenship as per my understanding. What do you guys think?
I am not sure about walk in ,in india you have to pay a fee for 2 way courier then you will get a awb number and blue dart will pick from your home.
You need passport
Ppr letter
2 pic (according to their spec attested by the photographer)
They will send an email once you pay you have to take a print out and place it inside the envelope
Vfs consent form
If any extra documents is asked then add It
Your height weight eye color sheet
@stirredo did I miss something
I shared a video before, I am not able to find the link now
Prior to covid, passport submission did not require any appointment, it was just walk in and submit kind of process. Not sure how is it now. Better to contact vfs and check. @axmac
not possible to apply within Canada. You need to be outside.
Hope place of birth is as per passport- CITY,(SPACE)STATE. You need to account for comma and space.
Tip: If in past you had ordered GMCS, look for place of birth there and enter exact same way
