I have received ITA under pnp (Ontario).

Now I have a question.
When I submitted my application for OINP. Ontario required funds of $14853, I had $18000 in my account. I withdrew the funds after applying for OINP as needed them for personal use. now that I have received ITA and now I will deposit the funds back into my account and I will take declaration from my parents that these funds are for my personal use only. Will there be a problem in the process from CIC, will these pose an objection for the CIC that I withdrew the funds required for OINP application?

The documents I have prepared:
1- Stamped paper Gift Deed
2- Stamped Paper Affidavit
3- Bank statement of my mother showing transaction that she transfer money to my account with bank stamp.
4- My Bank statement showing transaction receiving money from my mother with bank statement.
5- Mine and my parents' Net worth certificates.

Hi, I am applying for OINP. The doc states that I have to submit IELTS GENERAL for my language test scores whereas I have IELTS ACADEMIC and there is very little time to take the test again and apply since the deadline is 45 days. Has anyone applied with IELTS Academic scores too? Is it really necessary to get a IELTS General or would IELTS ACADEMIC do? Thanks

Its mandatory to get IELTS general exam. Academics one is for students applying for student visa. I guess general one is for the PR.

General is used for Immigration purpose while academic is a requirement of universities when you apply to study . There is a difference in the reading and writing section I believe and speaking and listening test are same.

Has anyone submitted documents after receiving ITA. If yes, then can you please tell me if you have also mentioned your CNIC details too or just the passport? I am asking because the police certificates from Pakistan contains both the CNIC number and the passport?

Please reply!

Thanks in Advance.

After answering all the questions,
System would generate a personalized checklist
For me and my wife, they asked for passport separately
And National ID separately
So, if u get a National ID slot then u must provide CNIC

That's partially correct. The system asks if you have / wish to add another Government provided ID except passport or not.

If you say yes and Enter CNIC details there, you would be asked to upload that in the generated checklist, if you don't mention that at all (i didn't and just let it go with passports) then the checklist won't contain the entry. So it is kind of a personal choice. I never saw it mandated any where and didn't choose to include it.

Depends upon how free they are. They might ask you to come with in a day or two or they might not have any slot for another 10 days.

Usually multiple applicants (like a family with kids) would need some more time and are given appointment a week or so away. But i have never seen them too much occupied (However, this info is a couple years outdated).

Lastly, you cannot get an appointment WIHTOUT a passport number and other details for the child.

I don't see any reason why would one try getting your own medicals done now and get those for a child latter.

You should wait for the passport and do it all together.

Unless you have an ITA and are close on your 60 day time line for applying for Express entry. In that case you should do your medicals now and attach a letter of explanation. Without a passport you cannot submit a child's application any way. So it is not just limited to medicals.

Guys, I have to pay the Ontario PT fee which is C$1500. I am hoping to make a bank draft for this. However, I have no idea that how I will do that. Any experiences? I have the account in Standard Chartered. So should I just visit them and tell them that I want a back draft on this name for C$1500?

A quick response would be really appreciated. Thanks.
