Quick questions post-ITA

[245east84]

I got the ITA this week after waiting since May 2016. So yay!

By now I am quite familiar with this stuff but had two questions

1. In my EE profile for education I had entered my Bachelors and my masters degree. I got the ECA for the masters. Can I delete the Bachelors from my application when I respond to the ITA?

2. For the address history: I am only giving one address for each country I've lived in. This makes it easy to get a PCC for each country. I hope this is perfectly legal.

1 - Yes.

2 - No, provide the addressed where you actually lived.

Thanks for the response DelPiero07.

I disagree with point 2. Based on reading the experience of more than 500 Indian and Pakistani nationals over the last year, I have learned that you are better off just giving one address for your time spent in India or Pakistan and then getting a PCC for that one address. If you moved across the street, you don't need to mention that.

Are senior members like asivad anac still around to give their two cents on this?

Regarding the bolded part, if it's your permanent address you should certainly mention that. If you know the answer after reading so much why ask then?

Avisad is gone from the forum.

That information is incorrect (at least for India).
In the eAPR, you have to mention each address you have stayed at in the last 10 years in the address history section (CIC does not ask for proof of the said addresses but expects you to disclose them honestly). I had to put in 8 addresses I think!
The PCC in India is decouple from the residential address. We get just one PCC from a centralized agency (PSK) for our entire stay in India irrespective of how many addresses we stayed at in the past.
If you do not disclose your correct residential addresses, then there might be mismatch between your address history and work/education history etc (living in city x and working in city y etc).
my 2 cents.

Hi all,

I was filling out the application and had a few queries (some may find it silly, but at this stage, can't help but be jittery about almost anything), would really appreciate if someone can help

1. In personal information section, where they ask height, i have put the height in cms. the question is whether i keep 'Feet and inches' box blank or write 'N/A' although at lot of places the system is not allowing to put N/A

2. In contact details section, where they ask for telephone number, i have selected Cellular but what should i put in Extension box, it is not accepting 'N/A' as answer

3. In mailing address section, they have asked for PO Box No., I have put in Pin code/ Zip code, is this correct (My indian counterparts can help me here)

4. In personal history section, In one of the jobs i started working at company XYZ at city A and after 20 days I was relocated to city B, so should i split this experience? as in address details i have mentioned i was living in City A till a particular date and then moved to city B.

5. In Travel history, I have added all my travel details; (a) i was confused, which date to put as end date, the date on which my passport is stamped while leaving the foreign country or the date on my passport which was stamped at my home country (it is one day difference in these dates like left on 19th arrived on 20th) (b). Should i enter my spouse's travel details in this section or there would be separate section for travel in her personal profile (c) should we put other family members' travel details also (brother, sister, parents etc.)

6. In spouse's personal information section, they have asked for 'Unique client Identifier (UCI)', what should i put there, i tried entering 'N/A' but the system was not accepting this answer

Would really appreciate your answer, have heard it somewhere that you should not leave any field blank. your suggestions would help here.
