Thank you Asivad Anac

Hello Asivad,

Thanks for your sharing your expertise. Could you please help me to answer a few questions about my case?

I’m on a student visa in Alberta. I just completed a course and I’m doing my practicum. In total, the course lasts 8 months.

1. As soon as I finish my practicum, I will request my work permit by paper, while I wait for my work permit to arrive, I’m going to start working. I'm submitting my paper because CIC takes longer to process, which will give me additional time working under implied status. Is this possible? Would this experience count towards Express Entry?

2. I already have 4 months of Canadian experience in a B NOC with company X from 2014. I had to stop because my work permit expired and I could not renew it, so I got a student permit for a course. With this new work permit in 2016 I plan to work for another company Y in a job that has the same B NOC than my experience in 2014. Will this new B NOC experience be added to the 4 months I already have in that B NOC so Express Entry will give me points for 1 year of Canadian experience soon?

3. If I’m working for company Y, can I get a free LMIA from another company Z to get 600 points for Express Entry?

4. I live in Alberta, so I’m planning to apply for postgraduate graduate provincial nomination. The problem is that it takes too long to get the nomination and my work permit would most likely expire before. Is there a way to extend my stay until I get the nomination?

5. I’m very anxious about getting my PR, I barely sleep and I feel so desperate, I feel that these options are long shots and not likely to work. Is there a better way to get my PR?

Thank you!

Hey Asivad
My BC PNP is expiring on june 8th and have not received PPR
Am i going to loose points after June 8?

Hello,

No, you would not loose any points.

All the information you have provided gets locked on the day you submit it. Do not get worried about expiry of your PNP.

But there is a question when you create a profile.

Date person first became qualified to practice in this occupation ? under Occupation tab

Yes. But it doesn't impact your eligibility or your points.

Only experience gained after getting your WP counts.

2. I already have 4 months of Canadian experience in a B NOC with company X from 2014. I had to stop because my work permit expired and I could not renew it, so I got a student permit for a course.

Yes.

Yes.

You can choose to apply for a BOWP (of course, without being eligible), you'll then be on implied status before they cancel your application and then you can choose to go on visitor status. Basically buying time till your APR (after nomination and application submission) comes through.

5. I’m very anxious about getting my PR, I barely sleep and I feel so desperate, I feel that these options are long shots and not likely to work. Is there a better way to get my PR?

Under EE, getting 470+ seems to be the only way in the short term.

Thank you!

Hi Asivad,

You are certainly a go to man for this forum. Appreciate if you can help me with my query below.

I received PPR today and strangely my VO is New Delhi which is also my primary office, this is as per my nationality.

I was expecting VO to be Ankara, Turkey as per my country of residence.

PPR request is asking me to contact VFS India and send the passport to New Delhi but I want to get this changed to Ankara and use VFS in Azerbaijan.

Please can you guide me how I can get my visa office changed?

Do I need to contact New Delhi since this is my primary office or should I contact CPC - Ottawa as first instance?

Thanks.

Send a request to the mail id mentioned in your PPR letter and send a CSE as well.

That's the problem Asivad. In my entire letter there is no email address mentioned at all. It just says to use vfs India for NDVO or cpc ottowa if i am in Canada. On top it does mention that my primary office is New Delhi.

Confused whom I should contact CPC Ottawa or NDVO? Email or CSE?

Thanks.

A billion Congrats!!!

For the 10000 th post. Wow.. I am sure 1/10 of your post would have benefited at least 1000 applicants to count the least.

A great selfless service rendered to so many applicants.. A rare human quality in this era. Hats off

Your suggestions, guidance to so many PR complex scenarios of applicants would be remembered by all.

Keep up the hope and spirits of this forum, sparing some time.
