Hi Sidhesh,

Are you based out of India? Can you initiate the Police Clearance process before getting an ITA?

Thanks in advance!
Hey, apologies for the extremely delayed response.

Yes I reside in India and the police clearance certificate can be obtained without an ITA.

While applying for it, we only need to select the reason as "migration to Canada". No documentary proof is required to show that you are immigrating.
The police clearance certificate can be applied for from the Government of India's passport application website.

No worries at all. :) Thanks for your reply. I have initiated the process already.

I believe that since you submitted before your Ielts will expire then it will be exempted. Although additional 600 points await you.
Again, Its nice that you are taking another Ielts which you can update in your express entry later. So, whether you pass it well or not, you are still getting your nomination.

Thank you so much for the hope
But I have another quick question. When my ielts will expire my current express entry profile will get expired?
If thats the case, then I have to make a new express entry profile, but my oinp was related the previous file(which get expired due to ielts)
What should I do in such a situation?
How my points will be linked to the new express entry profile?

No. Ielts are valid for 2 years and Express Entry profile for 1 year. Although, I don’t know when you created your Express Entry. So, you know better.
OINP e-filling portal is a different application all together. Continue with your application with OINP while you wait for additional 600 points to be added automatically to your Express Entry account.
Meanwhile, what is your NOC?

But doesn’t express profile become ineligible as soon as your ielts get expired and once ielts gets expired, in any case you have to create new express entry profile?
I got my NOI in OINP through Express entry profile under human capital priority stream on 23rd June
My noc is 1122

Okay, I get you. Well, in that case, you may need to contact IRCC to be sure.
In my opinion, if it happens that your EE profile becomes ineligible due to Ielts, you can still create another EE profile then share your new EE profile number and job code to to OINP by email explaining to them what happened. if your new Ielts score is gives you a low CRS score, it doesn’t affect your OINP application because they used your previous CRS score. Whatever the case you will still get 600 points which will reflect in your new EE profile.

NOC is 1111
NOI : June 23rd
Submitted: June 30th
Assessment: Nil
DIP: Nil
Nomination: Nil
