Yes. You need one from every country you lived in for 6 months or more since you turned 18 years old. US one takes a bit of time so get the process started as soon as you get your ITA.

US PCC doesn't take any time at all. They've changed to an average of 3 days. Actually for mine after receipt of my fingerprints they produce the report less than 2 hours later.

Same. The FBI changed to an electronic system last year. Since then, getting an FBI report has been reduced from 11 weeks to 3 days, as long as you file for a report electronically. I filed my report online and sent in my fingerprints. My report was ready to download within an hour of the post office delivering my fingerprints to the FBI.
 
Once we receive the email for passport submission can some funds be taken out? I am asking because I know someone who has the funds but needs to give them to someone urgently. They already submitted passport.

Haha, nice to see fellow B-school person who understands my frustration with IELTS. Are you doing your MBA in Canada? I just finished mine this year.

naah, I had attempted the GMAT just once long ago and sucked at it (except for AWA) :) I am here as a PR, and working.

From your name I guess you are and Indian CA.
After reading some replies to your query, I thought of adding 2 cents from my side. All the replies are only partially correct.

1. You can get PR via Express Entry with your CA degrees from India. Not a problem at all.
2. WES gives ECA for your degrees.
3. To work exactly as a professional accountant (who prepares books/ balance sheets / P&L statements), yes you will have to do CPA (to get Professional License). Again that can be done on after reaching there. Not a problem again.
4. If you intend to work with industry (companies) and not practice as an accountant, CPA is not mandatory. You can get Accounting / Finance and similar jobs in organisations, depending on your ability and experience. Just that for career growth in future, doing CPA would be advisable. Up to you.
5. Canada, and specifically Ontario have ample opportunities for Accounts & Finance professionals. So, if your goal is to settle long term, you can take the punt.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Thanks for your revert.

I think getting a CPA won't be a big task due to the MOU with CPA Canada.

However, with 460 score can you tell me what is the chance to get invited and when do they release express draws?

I am new to the PR process and doing things myself so requesting for some suggestions.

Regards

if you are 38 years old, you need a pcc from every country you’ve lived in the past 10 years.

if you are 27 years old you need a pcc from every country you’ve lived in since you were 18, as that is within the last 10 years.

if it takes 2-3 days or one month to get it, is irrelevant to what time period of your life that your pcc needs to cover.
You do not need to get one from Canada, if you are currently living there, unless they ask for it.

Yup! They were really quick with the new system, literally took 2 days to get the PCC after they received the fingerprints.
 
What are the chances for 460?? I checked CELPIP and IELTS dates but all dates are late in my city. I don’t know what to do??
Should I book next CELPIP so I can get express results?
I really wish that next draw would be 460 with 4700 ITAs (i know m expectingn for a magic here)
 
Wow, so many high scorers, the cufoff should not be less than 465 this time.

Unless CIC goes for b2b draw, my Canadian dream ll be over very soon.
