Dear Friends,

I am planning to move to Canada around November 2014 and have started researching for suitable jobs and locations for renting accommodation, etc.. My current occupation (IT Project/System Analyst) seems to be unregulated. I've seen on this and other forums that a lot of people are asking about credentials assessment from WES or others. I assume they are doing it as part of CIC/Provincial application requirement however my stream didn't require me to do it.

Just want to confirm whether I need to get my academic credentials assessed too? Is it required by employers or not? Also, does obtaining memberships for associations/organizations like CIPS (http://www.cips.ca/) help in job hunting?

Any other tip about preparing for move and job hunting will be helpful.

Thanks,
Fahad

Dear Fahad,

CHC London asked me to submit report how I would become economically established in Canada. It was also asked, "If you have professional and/or trade qualifications, provide evidence that these qualifications will be recognized for employment in Canada". I got my credentials verified from WES and sent to CHC London with economically establishment report.

NASIR

Dear Nasirali..


when did they ask you for these "economically established in Canada" and "professional and/or trade qualifications" and "evidence that these qualifications"...

it is amazing for me that they have asked you after medical......

Thanks

So looks like its optional since I didn't send any with my statement. I was just wondering if it makes sense to go thru with assessment now that all stages are complete. Thanks Nasir.

Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) Applicants for permanent residence can pay the Right of Permanent Residence Fee ($490) at the time they submit their application or at a later date when requested.

The following applicants are not required to pay the RPRF:

dependent children of a principal applicant or sponsor, a child to be adopted, or an orphaned brother, sister, niece, nephew or grandchild;

As mentioned above, RPRF fee is not applicable for children. You have to pay RPRF fee for yourself and your spouse.

The fees for RPRF must be paid using a Bank Draft / Bank Cheque in Canadian dollars, made payable to “Receiver General for Canada”. Cash will not be accepted.

Please check the below given link.

You can have Bank Draft / Bank Cheque from any bank where you have bank account. The Bank Draft should be payable to "Receiver General for Canada". The Bank Draft should be sent via courier service to Visa Office. In my case visa office is CHC London, so, I sent the Bank Draft to CHC London

I remembered from one of your post on this forum that you left for Canada near the end of last year. You came back to Pakistan to process PR? or some other business.

Yes I was in Canada on OWP & came back reason is you cannot avail different benefits on OWP for instance like medical, initial support from Immigration center's & also job hunting as your status is so confusing & OWP holders are least considered when comes to comparison with immigrants with permanent status.
