Hi Everyone,
Can we create two profiles - one with my husband as primary applicant and other with myself as primary applicant? The scores are different for both of us and once any one of us receives an ITA, we could progress with that one. At the moment the ECA is pending for my profile which would have more points once ECA is completed. Currently, my husband's profile has more points and his ECA report + IELTS score is readily available. We do not want to miss on any chance of receiving an ITA. Hence, this approach. Please share your views. Thanks!
Hi,
Technically yes, but in most cases there is no point.

Create a profile with your husband as the primary applicant for now. The once your ECA is ready you can delete that profile and create a new one with you as the principle applicant.

Regards

Hello and good day, I am expecting my ECA from IQAS, afterwards will set my profile up.
Please i would want to be guided regarding provinces, I've been looking at Prince Edward Island for no particular reason except that I hear they do not have strict regulations..does anyone think that's a good idea?
Would you all be so kind as to recommend provinces which will make for smoother processing? I hope I am not jumping the gun with these queries, I am just trying to prepare ahead. Thanks in advance.
Hi,

You would need to make an informed decision after thorough research. However, Ontario is the most popular destination for new immigrants followed by BC and Alberta.

How do we get nominated? What factors play a role?
Hi,

This depends on the province as each of them have different criteria. Most look for particular skills that are in demand in the province and also consider the human capital skills you have (age, education, language and work experience). All you need to do is create an express entry profile and indicate the provinces that you are interested in. If you fit their criteria they will contact you through your profile.

Go through these threads for information on the particular provinces:

I won't be needing an LOE for this?

Thanks TanakaM!
Well if it will make you feel at ease you can indeed mention it in the LOE. There is no harm whatsoever, but it is minor.

Hi,

1- Yes, the EE profile can be updated at any time. It is only locked after you get an ITA.
2- No. Dont worry about this at all. Post-ITA, you will only need to give details of what you were doing in the past 10 years.
Spouse - Nothing. Say she has no work experience.
3- No, only post-secondary education is required.

All the best
Thanks a lot for your reply :)

Hi,

Yes, its ok to say no. You do not need to declare extended family.

However, if you wanted to claim eligibility points you would need to answer yes.

Hi .. thank you for your reply.. can I claim points even though my uncle is living outside of canada? I thought that they only give points if the relative is inside canada
