Thanks dupsy

What would you suggest; is it better to go for provincial nominee too even after securing an ITA directly?

 

[dupsy21]

Based on my understanding, once you have ITA, there is no need to apply for PNP as the extra 600 points from PNP just helps guarantee ITA.

Hey thank you very much for this information. I have one query regarding this. I have already applied for "International Skilled Workers - Express Entry" on 2nd August,2015 and received Application Number and my status is "Application Received". Now "occupations-in-demand" category is re-opened and my NOC is 2174 and I am eligible to apply for "occupations-in-demand" category.

1) How can I apply for "occupations-in-demand" category? Is it possible to apply using same credential which I have used for "Express Entry" category?
2) I have made dummy account for "occupations-in-demand" category(from an other account) but by default it appears for "Express Entry" only(and it shows threshold is over for EE), so how can I switch to "occupations-in-demand" ?

Thanks in advance.

Why do you want to go with No-offer stream if you already have filed in EE stream?

The Saskatchewan occupation-in-Demand PNP for the extra 1000 is now closed after just a day. The intake threshold has been reached.

My EE profile is under NOC 2173 which is regulated in SK. Has anyone tried to attain License from Regulating body for Engineers in SK while residing in India or elsewhere outside of Canada?

On my initial search on the License for Engineers it appears to be a lengthy and expensive process. I am not sure if it's practical to attain this License from a remote country?

Does anyone has any experience on this? Thanks

Hey Dupsy, where do you come to know about freeze of this? I am just gathering my documents and was thinking to apply this weekend. If your information is correct, then last hope shattered for this year.

Although I have not tried it myself as I already have ITA, friends that tried told me me they got the message that the quota has been reached when they tried to submit the application yesterday.

 

[mf4361]

usually 1000 seats no-job-offer SINP are filled within the day.

Think of tremendous amount of people who are eligible apply and are waiting for it

 

[mco246]

So is the program closed or not?

The website doesn't say quote reached.
Anyone applied lately?

I successfully submitted my application on 22nd Sep. It would be strange if quota is full in just two days. CAP for 1000 applications for SINP - Express Entry was reached in about two months time (8th june to 4th august).
Strange that 1000 applicants got ready again in such short time.

Whoever has created the rules for this SINP is completely non sense..!! And I'm sure this is not for the people who work in Canada..! They have employment offer sub category but "MNC" never provides any documents and avoid to take any wok load for their employees..! They are completely saying "NO" for may kondnof help to their workers..! Plus SINP's other two category mentions if your relatives living in Sask then you will get 20 points but if you are living and paying taxes then You cant get those 20 points..! And their calculation in experience have mentioned 10 years of experience to get max points, but Canada who is going to have more than 3 years of WP? So the people living is Canada never gonna get benefit of this unless they work in a small food store or a shop where they can directl contact their employer and convince them to get then SINP job approval letter. And this is Canada's policy to improve their economy, My foot...!

Hi All,

Can someone help with letting me know if the Schedule A and family information forms are to be filled by hand and signed or whether those need to be type completely and the signed? If I need to type to fill those, how do I save them as I cannot see any save button on the forms.

Thanks,
Ankit
