i have a question, most women after marriage change their surname to their husband's name. If someone has changed her name after marriage and name on educational documents are different prior to marriage, how that women would apply for Express Entry? Any help on this issue would be highly appreciated, thank you..

Hi,
This is very common. So not to worry. You just need to complete a one and the same person affidavit and attach you marriage certificate to it.

Here is a sample:

Hello - I dont know where and whom to ask this question. I have recently been invited to apply for the Canada PR. I am in the process of arranging the required documents. Got few clarifications, if anyone can help, would be highly thankful:

1. Do I need to get the medical examination done now and before I apply eAPR? If yes, the approved physician are asking me for the IME number, how to i obtain the same?
2. I have stayed in Sinapore for 6 months, understand that i need to obtain PCC for all the countries where the stay was more than 6 months (over the last 10 years). For Singapore PCC, understand i need to obtain a letter from IRCC to appeal for the PCC. How do i obtain this letter?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
Vikas

Hi and welcome to the forum,

1) Yes you do. Tell them you need Upfront medicals done, so you will not have the IME number. Most physicians are stuck in the old system, so you have to insist.
2) IRCC will send you the letter after you submit your PR application.

Hello Guys

Could you please tell me how much time it takes IRCC to refund the paid fees after an application is bounced for incompleteness?
It's been almost a month and I haven't been refunded yet!!

Thank you a lot in advance

Hello Guys, SENIOR MEMBERS PLEASE HELP !

Hope you are doing great. I am a Masters graduate from Canada but currently residing in Pakistan. I want to initiate my EE procedure. Right now I have three years Canadian Work Visa with me so I can travel anytime to Canada.

1) What would be better for EE in terms of efficiency of procedure, background checks and chances to immigrate, if I apply from Pakistan or if I move to Canada and apply from there?

"I don't want to apply through Manitoba PNP as it is very long and slow process so I will submit my profile without PNP and Canadian experience i.e. 475 score"

Secondly, there is uncertainty in the Canadian job market if you don't have PR. So I was thinking to get PR from Pakistan and then move to Canada and find a job.

2) If I stay in Pakistan then may be it would be difficult for me to gather Police certificate from Canada.


I am really confused as I have to book my flight (if i am planning to go to Canada) or start any job (if i am planning to stay in Pakistan) and to start this process ASAP !!!!

YOUR RESPONSE WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED !!

Both options are acceptable, but I would personally recommend option 2 as it is neater and easier to follow. This will make the immigration officer's job a lot easier.

All the best


Thanks Tanakam.

I do need another clarification.While uploading my documents i discovered that my POF file is way over 4MG.
Please what can i do in this situation? I really worried.

Reduce the size with a software or website like smallpdf.com.

Hey People,
Can some help on travel history about Schengen Territory?
I have been to Portugal 4 times from India. Since, there is no direct flight between India-Portugal, I always boarded connecting flights to Portugal from Germany (Frankfurt, Munich), Switzerland (Zurich) and Belgium (Brussels) and vice versa for returning. I have arrival/departure stamps on my passport from these countries and not from Portugal (since they were the entry/exit points in Schengen area).
My concern is shall I include these entry/exit countries in my travel history, even if I was there at the airports only for 3-4 hours?

Regards,
Shyam Chopra

Anyone??? Please

Hi,

You can send WES an email to confirm whether your institution is recognized, or, you can use other accredited organizations for the assessment of your credentials. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=681&top=29

Thanks again dear.

Just a few more questions then I guess I should have a clear picture:

So before medical / passport expires, I have to land in canada. But let say I land in Canada, hunt for jobs for few weeks/months but do not find a suitable job there...

1)Can I return back to my place and continue working at my current job?
2) If yes, for how long can I stay outside canada after getting the PR?
3)do I need to my residence/address in canada? If yes and I do not have a job certainly I cannot afford a place. What needs to be done then?
4) what is the validity of this PR?
5) For how long do i need to stay in canada to be eligible for nationality?
6) if I get a PR for canada but I am still working outside due to not finding a suitable job in canada, do I pay any kind of tax then? If yes, what amount is it?
7) Is PR a kind of a visa stamped on passport or is it a card? If a card, will I get it before going to canada or when I am in canada?
Please advise :)

Thanks
Hi,

I bump into this page with some useful information on the actual PR. I think it will help answer most of your questions.
