Pakistani Applicants for Express Entry, Let's Network Here

[drshohrat]

This is a very common issue. If you search on the forum you will find many people who have faced this problem. And several opinions.

1. try to get it in writing from HR / Company that they have an official policy of not issuing letters with job duties.
2. get a senior / your line manager to write a letter detailing your job duties. (as far as I know, there is no need to notarize but it could be good to have). Make sure he puts his contact details and position on the letter.
3. attach your colleague's name card for more credibility.
4. you can attach print outs of the job duties mentioned on the ERP system. Did you say internet or intranet? because if its available online for everyone to see, you might as well attach the link to that in your LOE.
5. explain in the LOE that your company wouldn't issue you a reference letter with job duties.

Quite a few people have submitted application in the above way successfully.

good luck.

what if a colleague (who is still working in that organization) writes the letter......as my supervisors have either left or transfered to other cities?

Reference letter is just a name. If your experience letter full fills all the criteria required by CIC then that would suffice.
However its good to attach additional documents such as payslips, appointment letters etc to support the application.

Please make sure your experience letter has all of the following:

Salam dear Hamza,

I want to arrange my police certificate from sudan i was there 7 years ago, can you guide me a little how did you arranged?

Regards

So I found out that my application is being processed in the London Office and that my application is in a queue awaiting review by an officer. Can anyone tell me what this means and how much more time it will take me?

I got my AOR on 20 Apr 17 and paid the fee upfront. On June 24 I was asked to submit an additional document: Police Certificate from Sudan (since I was in the Military and went on a UN mission to Sudan). I submitted that document on 31 July and to this date there has been no update regarding my profile. This is how it reads:

Application Status: We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.
Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results: You passed the medical exam.
Review of additional documents: We do not need additional documents.
Interview: You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics: We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.
Final decision: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

I got AOR this week. How much time should I expect for decision in my case?

Depends on each individual case. However, you may get an estimate from this (not authentic).

Hey guys, I wanted to share happy news with you folks.

Yesterday I got PPR request

My timeline:

ONIP/FSW
NOC: 2173 (software engineer)
AOR: 21st May
Medical passed: 10th August
Request to pay RPRF: 10th November
PPR: 23rd November

I believe, if I had paid RPRF upfront, it would not have taken more than three months; that's how it went for my friend.

Only thing you need to consider in this case whether airline allow you to travel, usually air lines has limits 30--35 weeks of pregnancy.

Yes, it would be ideal if baby birth is in Canada (Canadian Passport is granted just in 2-3weeks)

thank you so much for the reply, for my better understanding, if i didn't inform CIC it will not be a problem, during my landing process?

Hi guyz,

Usually if PCC is not accepted do they reject before the medical is passed or it can be later as well ?

Can't say for sure but most likely yes.

You can see a couple of rejection both were for incomplete PCC, within 15 days without med passed. Completeness check is the first stage of processing so if PCC is incomplete it's highly unlikely for application to proceed.

Thanks Hira. Is that for FSW or PNP as well will be the same ?

Most probably they will not proceed to next step which is usually medical. File is rejected and declared incomplete.
