Thank you Asivad Anac

Hi Asivad,

Recently I got the request to submit police clearance from Singapore. I lived in Singapore in 2007 for 7 months and in 2010 for 2 months. After that also, I traveled to Singapore several times. Each stay was only for 2/3 days and last visit was 2013. Now also, I am going to Singapore for some personal reason and at the same time I am planning to collect the certificate. In the application form for police clearance, I have to mention the duration for which police clearance is required.
My question is, should I put the duration - only those 7 months in 2007 and 2 months in 2010 ? or I have to cover the short visits also which I did later including this visit?( In that case, should I select the duration from 2007 to 2015, though I did not live continuously). Can you please share your suggestion about this?

Thank you

No harm in asking for PCC for the entire duration from 2007 till date.

I have invested money in a construction company, to prove it is an investment what documents do I have to produce? I have withdrawn money from that company few days back and the cheque is in my name from that company with company name.. Is it suffice if I get written statement from company's letterhead that I did invest in that company from xxx period to xxx period?

Hi Asivad,

ECAS
Permanent Residence
We received your application for permanent residence on August 5, 2015.
We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on August 5, 2015.
We started processing your application on August 6, 2015.
Medical results have been received.

I applied for FBI PCC and then sent the scanned document to CIC. It was attached to the main application on October 23rd.

1. Will they get started with the processing of my application only from October 23rd. Or did they already start it on August 6th and just the bg was pending.

Incases like mine what is the typical timeline from FBI PCC submission date (document attachment to the main application) to PPR ?

Thanks for the response Asivad, later yesterday I received a 600 points for the job offer mentioned in quebec address.

=====================================================================================
Hi Asivad,

I am trying to apply ExpressEntry and currently working in Quebec since 2014 intended to move to Ontario. When I filled in my ExpressEntry profile under valid Canadian job offer sesion I mentioned my quebec job offer and Limia details, however my score for the job offer part still 0, I am puzzled as if I am doing anything wrong or in general job offer from quebec (or one provincial job offer to other) is not considered valid? I still have LIMIA approval from federal it is called different here in quebec.

Kindly advise.

=====================================================================================

Probably because Quebec isn't tagging along with EE. So a job offer in Quebec wouldn't qualify you for those points under EE.

It doesn't matter where your brother got the monies from. Treat it as a gift from them and get the documents in place to prove that you don't have to return these monies to them at any point in time. Do not mention the 'loan' angle anywhere on the affidavit or LOE - that will get your application refused.

Thank you for your response Asivad Anac!!... I could proceed this way but my only concern is that most Gift deeds formats I've seen specify the source of the money that is being gifted, for example one shared in a thread of this forum by nujgupta84 (I can't post the link).

In most letters the person that gifts the money specify that this money comes from past savings, if I exclude this information from the letter wouldn't they suspect any abnormality and ask for further information about the source of the money?

I'm very worried cause I really don't want to miss this opportunity, thank you for your help!!

This is tricky and would depend on the officer's discretion. Attach all possible documentation to prove that the money belonged to you including the paper trail of both the acts of giving and receiving the money in addition to that written statement on the letterhead.

Most likely, your application would have been processed starting 6/8 without waiting for the FBI PCC. It is very difficult to predict the movement of individual applications as there is very limited data so far - you can check the sticky thread on top of the page for some guesstimates.

All the best!

Hi Asivad,

I am waiting for the next ITA. I am currently at 478 points. I was wondering, which documents do you recommend I should collect prior to the ITA? The idea is to not delay an application. I don´t know which are the documents are often hard to come by, though it will depend on the main applicant´s situation.

All the best!

EDITED

I submitted my application without any information about the source of funds for the donor. And my application was NOT refused. CIC cannot (and does not) trace the source of funds at the donor's end - it doesn't matter as long as the monies are available exclusively for your use and aren't borrowed by you.

Hi Asivad,

Requesting your expert opinion apropos to NOC title.
Does my job title have to match the NOC sample titles exactly? :-[

I submitted my application without any information about the source of funds for the donor. And my application was refused.

Could you please clarify this one? If CIC don't want to know the source of funds of the donor, why was your application refused?

Hi Asivad,

Not at all. Job responsibilities have to closely match the main duties of the chosen NOC. Job title need not match the sample titles.

Could you please clarify this one? If CIC don't want to know the source of funds of the donor, why was your application refused?

Thank you for pointing that out! My bad.

I've edited that post. My application was NOT refused and I hadn't mentioned anything about the donor's source of funds.

Whew, my heart started racing when I saw the previous version

Could you please tell me if the following is proof enough:

1) official letter that conveys account movements over the 3 months of its existence & a letter showing the current balance.
The exhaustive list of the movements is: +82 USD (Jul24), +1,000 USD (Aug28), +10,700 USD (Oct19), the latter being on the same day as the gift affidavit conclusion.

2) gift affidavit (my mom being the donor of most of the funds in my account), the money was given in cash, after which I converted it to USD and put it into my account

3) various apartment cost estimates, etc. showing I own property worth of something (not yet sold, however).


I'm kinda worried because I'm not including my salary account (it's in another bank) or the "list of all outstanding debts" (I don't have any debts), on top of that, the date the account was opened is not stated anywhere.
