Hi,
I am actually a secondary applicant, and my wife as a Primary applicant
the the minimum i have shown is 16000 CAD, i have these few doubts, it would be great if @TanakaM or someone can clarify on these
1. Being a secondary applicant i am planning to show the proof of funds from account
2. I have 1 Fixed deposit in different bank and the savings account from other different bank, is it fine if i can just show the FIxed deposit certificate and the six months balance from the other savings account??
3. Currently the savings account is having my wife name included as Joint account holder but in the Fixed deposit which is fro a different bank doesn't have my wife name included in it? is it required?

Hi everyone,

I have my working experience in my home country as a publishing coordinator for more than 3 years in the last 10 years.

I tried to search my job title from the NOC code but I couldn't find the exactly same one in their list. Instead, my job description and duties are pretty much similar to NOC 1241 - Administrativhie Assistant (about 70%).

In this case, would it be okay to use this NOC code for my working experience as well as to get my reference letter from employer with the job title of 'Administrative Assistant' ?

Can anyone advise?

Hi Kristine, if you can have your company write Administrative Assistant in your job title, well and good. But make sure the job profile very closely matches to what you actually performed.

I can understand Publishing Coordinator is a very specific kind of job title and that's why it's not in the list. To be honest Administrative Assistant and Publishing coordinator sound very different just by the titles itself. So putting P.C. May not get you through.

your profile will be deemed eligible aslo if you miss some mandatory information like ECA, language test results... for the CRS points breakdown check this link: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/criteria-comprehensive-ranking-system/grid.html

Thanks a lot for your reply. I have all the mandatory information like ECA, language test results, and etc.
I already have checked my points breakdown for the six selection factors for FSWP and based on the points, I have the minimum criteria:

Language testing: 22 out of 24 points; I took CELPIP test in August and the results are: Speaking:CLB8 Writing:CLB8 Listening:CLB11 Reading:CLB10
Education: 23 out of 25 points (Master's degree);
Experience: 9 out of 15 points (one year foreign full-time work experience);
Age: 12 out of 12 points (32 years old);
Arranged employment in Canada: 0 out of 10 points;
Adaptability: 5 out of 10 points (Past study in Canada. I am in my forth year of PhD program and have not completed my degree yet.)

Feeling so confused....

Also i guess you should check the minimum funds requirements..they have increased the amounts by a small no.
I'd experienced the same problem for the first time and then realized that the fund values have changed..it does not reflect on their online crs tool but during filling out EE forms you will have to provide the updated values based on your family members

Thank you. Do you know how can I get the information for updated values? I am the only member in my family (1 member) and the amount I entered was 20000 CAD.

Hello there,

Thanks for your advice on my concern. Yes I know my job title is a very specific kind and it is hard to find it in the noc. By any chance, what does it mean by 'P.C'? I am kinda new to those terms. xD

Hi,

1. It's ok for the funds to be in your account, you just need to sign a notarised affidavit giving your full consent to the use of these funds for immigration purposes.
2. You only need to show the account with the funds.

Hi, and what is the update requirement per prrs



Hi, I think 435 will be breached very soon. Last year it went down much further down than that. And this year they have increased the targets so every chance of thus happenIng within 2-4 months, if not earlier. In my view the higher cutoffs in last few rounds were because of 2 missed draws, as

Well with that much amount of money, you won't have any problem whatsoever as far as POF are concerned (of course you will have to prove it that this is readily available to you)
This is the new list of POF requirements:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/eligibility/proof-funds.html

Also, you may want to check the no. of hours you have mentioned in your profile...it is required to be updated on weekly basis not daily basis.!!

Coming to finances, this section is very confusing and poorly written.
"For example, you can't use equity on real property as proof of settlement funds."
What does equity on property mean? Loan or is it a typing error and they mean property or equity?

Also it remains ambiguous whether we need a fresh POF certificate at time of landing? If yes, same format as when we used during application of just a bank statement will do?

In the bottom section they give examples of sources of funds that cancan be seized if ignored is above 10.000 and we do not declare. Alright seize if you desire, but tell us clearly are stocks, property, treasury bills, debentures etc mentioned can be used as source of funds or not? And tell for both stages.

All in all so ambiguous and poorly written it leaves you totally confused.

Practically I have read memebers who have already landed that they do not even ask to see POF documents at time of landing. Just ask a figure sum which will be put in a form. But do they have a right to ask for a fresh document or not? I remember reading somewhere that we are expected to bring all the documents that we used at time of application post ITA. But no mention of any fresh POF.
