Your international experience will not be considered for CEC. you need to have one full year of canadian experience in skill level A,B or O. Based on your skill level your ielts score shoud be 6 in each category for skill level A and for other levels it should be 5.5 in each category

If you go to a Dr who does e-Med then no docs required apart from ID, but do take your PP.

The Dr will take a pretty pic of you and your family

I am July member and just have PPR, so I have a question for mailing my passport to Ottawa (plan to use Canada Post)
In the return envelope, what address should I use for sender (CPC – Ottawa, PO Box 9780, Ottawa ON K1G 4B9)?
Since it is a PO box, do I need signature for the envelope to Ottawa?

Senior, please advice

Senior, please advice
1) On the return envelope, under "from" you leave it blank. CPC will put a label there with their address. So on it, just write the "TO" section with your address.

2) Regarding the Signature stickers on the XpressPost envelopes. Buy sticker for both.
Even if the address is a P.O Box, there is a person who accepts them. Last time I didn't even put a sticker for signature on the going envelope and still, on the tracking system, it showed me someone's signature.

Good Luck! In the matter of fact, I'm going today to send my passport for my PR application :)

Do I need to include the application # on the envelope since the email mentioned "Quote your application number on your correspondence and send the package to one of the following addresses"

You know, I really stopped on this! I was wondering too. :)

What I'm thinking to do is under Name. To write Application Number - My Name.

e.g. Name: E00001xxx - Jeremy Clarkson

Something like this. I think it should work. :)

Are you suggesting to write all this on the cover of the Envelope? That can't be required by CIC!!!

UCI# is a classified number! You shall not share it with anyone! Including the Post Office guy!
The combination of Name + Birthday is also good to be unshared for the public!

The email from CPC-OTTAWA is more than clear: "Quote your application number on your correspondence ..."

Guys, when it says quote your UCI on your correspondence - it means on the cover letter inside the envelope. In no circumstances should you reveal your UCI publicly.

If you reveal UCI, DOB , anyone has access to your information. Please be safe with this piece of information.

This is exactly was my point!

The thing is the instruction says to include a copy of the email/notice, in the envelope. The notice has already the Application number, Address, UCI and all the stuff.
So my assumption, if you write on the cover (only the Application number), it makes it easier for the CPC-OTTAWA to know, to which VO to deliver the envelope, without even opening the package.

I already sent my envelope today, I just wrote above the address label area. PR-Application (CEC): #E00xxxxx#

The number itself doesn't mean anything, so it is safe to be written. (UCI is the more sensitive number. It is like the SIN)

I agree - just the Application number should be fine
