I have been following this forum from the time I had entered into the express entry pool but never registered. It had been such a great help for me to read the posts and know whats happening. Now when I have finally got my COPR, I would like to share my story with others who are still in the process.
Total points = 450
Entered pool = 18th July'15
ITA = 18th Sep'15
AOR = 4th Nov'15 (same day)
Medical passed = 6th Nov'15
Schedule A request = 6th Nov'15
Schedule A Submitted = 9th Nov'15
ECAS = IN PROCESS (Checked on 10th Nov)
Background Check in Progress = 27th Nov'15
PPR = 8th Dec
Passports submitted = 10th Dec
CoPR = 15th Dec'15
I had applied with my spouse. I am a dentist. Shown 3+ years of experience. IELTS = L = 8.5, S = 8, R = 7, W = 7. I did'nt had enough available funds in my account. So I took 6lac from my parents and made a FD on 20th July, just after entering the pool. Also 2 lac transferred from my husbands account into mine in the month of July and August. I am the principle applicant and we showed all the funds just under my name. We had hired an agent, but don't rely completely on them. Check everything yourself. At the time of submission of file after ITA, our funds were three and half months old. But we had the funds before ITA. We submitted a FD Certificate with opening and maturity date. Balance confirmation certificate showing current balance in the account and average of past 6 months. Current was around $5200 and 6 month average was around $3400. Plus we had letter from bank to confirm the total funds in the account, Account opening dates, confirming the funds are liquid, free of any liens and debts, Available to use anytime etc. No bank statements were submitted. No explanation from where funds came as they were less than 6 months old. We were prepared to show proof if asked but I think if you have funds before ITA then you are good to go. Also our Medical type was selected as WORKER - NON EDE. I had read some confusion about this so just mentioned. It had been a smooth journey for us. Best of luck to all others who are still waiting. Hope you will hear the good news soon
