Hi Asivad,
In the process of filling the online forms after ITA, I have some questions as follows. May you help me to give a few answers? Thank you so much.
1. I had a refused and closed application to Nova Scotia Province Nominee Program 3 years ago and the reason of refusal is the settlement and employment plan did not meet the eligibility criteria. It was a paper-based application and all the paper documents I submitted were returned. I addressed honestly my previous application in the process of applying SINP (Saskatchewan’s PNP) and passed the SINP. Now I am preparing to apply for permanent residence under the Saskatchewan’s PNP.
How to answer the following two questions in EE’s form?
a)
Has XXX you been refused refugee status, or an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) or application to the Provincial nominee Program) or visitor or temporary resident visa, to Canada or any other country? (Y/N)
Yes to this.
b)
Has XXX ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or ordered to leave Canada or any other country? (Y/N)
No to this if that NS refusal is the only refusal you've ever had.
2. For my former government position (as a policeman) 17 years ago which is not related with my NOC(National Occupational Classification), will I be required by CIC to provide a certificate or reference letter about it?
No. Mention it truthfully in your application where asked.
3. For my wife’s travel history, she cannot provide documents like visa to prove it. Will she be asked to provide her visa by CIC about the travelling?
She cannot prove her travel history because she held official passport of her employer for a business trip and she returned it back after her business trip.
No.
4. Mailing address
If I will have a chance of receiving PPR(passport request) in the future, will I be asked to provide a more reliable address which will be used to receive the stamped passport? Or will they just use the mailing address I filled in EE form to mail the visa?
Mailing address provided in EE doesn't matter. Everything is online - PPR letter is sent to your mail or MyCIC mailbox or both.
5. Education experience
If I have university’s degrees, do I need to provide my second period study like middle school?
No.
6. I will not upload my wife’s reference letter because she has been working outside Canada and that could not give me any extra CRS points. But I will fill my wife’s work experience in the work history subcategory of EE form honestly to avoid being suspected of misrepresenting.
I will upload a letter of explanation in the corresponding placeholder. Please help me to consider whether the following explanation is acceptable?
Her work experiences were received outside Canada and cannot give me any CRS points. It is a little difficult for her to get reference letters. If you need more documents to identify her work experiences, she will collect and upload them with her best efforts after your request for them.
Unnecessary but you can do this if you wish. This entire section will be ignored by the officer the minute they realize that your spouse doesn't have Canadian work experience. No points asked for, none given. No explanations needed, if any provided they will be summarily ignored as they are irrelevant to this PR application. No misrepresentation if you leave out that experience from Work history - if anything, it will save the officer aome minutes of their life which would otherwise be wasted on an irrelevant piece of information.
7. In the personal activities subcategory, if I fill two periods of time like the following, will it be considered leaving gap in time and will be asked to fill the gap?
XXX – 2013/5 XXX
2013/6- now XXX
No.
8. Do I need to scan and prove the visa page and the blank pages of my passport?
No. Just the bio-page(s) of your valid passport.
