Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[TanakaM]

Good day every one please am new here and would need your best advice on how to start what to do to move to Canada as a skilled worker with my family. Thanks

Hi,

Well the first step is to understand what Express entry is and how it works. I would suggest read page 1 of this thread and visit this page
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwits8iEsdbWAhWrApoKHdpaBZIQFggvMAI&url=http://www.canadavisa.com/express-entry.html&usg=AOvVaw1Sivk99lgDQGXh9reQ4Od_

Also do a google search and make use of youtube. There is lots of information available.

The 2 things you would need to do first are get an Educational Credential Assessment and take a language test.

All the best

@TanakaM , Quick question for you regarding FBI Police Clearance.

I have been to the US 4 times in the past 10 years, and not stayed more than 6 months cumulatively.

2012 Jan through March (landed early March)
October 2015- October 2015 (10 days)
September 2016- October 2016 (10 days)
May 2017- May 2017 (15 days)

I heard in some places the CIC goes by months instead of days. Request your advice here please whether I need a FBI PCC.

Alternatively, should I provide a LOE showcasing these dates and entry/exit stamps on my passport?

Thanks.

Hi,

No, its the total number of months in days that they look at. Yours are clearly not more than 6 months so you wont need FBI PCC.

No need for LOE, but if it will help you sleep better there is no harm in just mentioning it (show date and not passport stamps).

All the best

Thanks much @TanakaM for your prompt response - I hope you realise the fact you're super fabulous !

The reason I asked this is because I saw another thread a bloke got his PR application refused, notwithstanding he/his spouse stayed less than 6 months.

Many thanks again.

No that's not accurate hey, the instructions are clear, so one can not be rejected for following them. If anything they will send you a request for the PCC if they want it.

Hey tanakam, can you please guide me ,
I mentioned my wife education in EE profile but I said that I don't have an ECA. Now in eAPR should I mention this in education or in personal history?

Hi,

Remove it from educational history and only mention it in personal history.

Just make a note of this change in your LOE.

All the best

• @TanakaM and experts pls advice on the below issue

• While entering information about the work experience in EE profile, I am struck with the following issue

1. 
   I have an Electrical engineering degree (Bachelor's and Master's) with WES ECA report due on 06.10.2017, and I possess full time 5 years work experience with the job responsibilities in 2 different NOC's but in a same organization.
   
   1 st Year (1 year ) - Job responsibilities match with NOC 2133 (Electrical and electronics engineer) and I have an electrical engineering degree which matches with the employment requirements as detailed in NOC 2133 of CIC website.
   2 nd to 5 th (4 Years ) - Job responsibilities match with NOC 2132 (Mechanical engineer). I work in power industry wherein additional mechanical portfolios of construction management were attached as part of job promotion requirements and I do not have a Mechanical engineering degreewhich is mentioned in employment requirements under 2132 of CIC website.
   
   I want to use my 4 years experience obtained in a higher grade as my primary NOC, will it be a problem with CIC in future.
   
   Thanks in advance

Are you aware that you do not have to meet the "employment requirements" of the NOC chosen?

Hi,

I'm not sure what you mean by WES ECA report due on 06.10.2017. If you dont have it yet you should not be creating an EE profile.

"Note: The applicant does not need to demonstrate that they meet the “employment requirements” listed in the NOC occupational description."
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/econ/fsw/minimum.asp

The above gives you the liberty to use the NOC you want even without the relevant qualifications. All you need is a reference letter that says you performed the duties and held the responsibilities described in the NOC.

Regards

Thank you very much
I have just created a profile since I would get a ECA report in 2 days, but did not submit it.

Is it must that we need to create a profile dated later than ielts score and WES ECA report , pls let me know.

If you haven't submitted its ok I guess. The major problem is submitting when you don't have both.

I personally wouldn't create the profile before I have both. It takes an hour or so to create the profile so there is no rush.

Hi Guys,

I read an earlier post in which it was mentioned that the 'personal history' section in the ITA app shoud be started with the most recent activity first n then go back from there.

Do we use the same pattern for travel history, education detail and employment detail sections as well?

Thanks in advance

Yes, but particular emphasis is placed on the personal history section.
