May AORs, Important checklist to check before submitting your application for PR:
- NOC Code - it isn’t about your job title, match 70% responsibilities to a NOC code.
- PCC - make sure you don’t submit a black and white PCC. If even the stamp on your PCC is colored and rest is black and white, submit a colored scan that shows the colored stamps: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/rejection-due-to-black-and-white-pcc.496680/.
- POF - Make sure to have closing balance, codified debt (or plainly listed debt declaration) on POF with your name clearly listed in it. Can’t get a letter of a specific format that state average 6 month balance? Don’t worry! You can create a PDF with POF + attach the last 6 months of bank statements to it. It works.
- Upfront medicals for Outland applicants - Find a panel physician listed near you: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/pp-md/pp-list.aspx when you call them do tell them that you want to do an upfront medical exam for PR application. In some cases, the hospital won’t have the right code to issue an upfront test for the “Permanent residency” category, it is fine to get the test done under the “worker” category. You’ll get two documents at the end of the upfront medical tests, you’ll have to upload one of these documents - clarify it with your hospital before leaving the premises.
- If you are using a consultant, get your GCKey credentials. It is risky (and not so much fun ) to not have your own credentials.
I forgot to create the thread this month, but will post this as a check list here.
Hi
@iSaidGoodDay ,I am confused after reading that 70% of job should match with NOC code.
Here is my matching noc code and highlighted ones are my matching Job duties.
How much percentage do you think these highlighted ones represent ? This noc covers multiple roles, does the 70% rule apply for such noc codes as well ?
Appreciate your help.
