Express Entry Step by step instructions.

Dear Experts,

Thanks a lot for all the support you provided. I am stuck again here. Need your help / advice.
I had chosen the option "not accompanying" in EE since my wife's ECA wasn't done (her transcripts were not received). I was also loosing time & score draws when her points were not getting reflected due to no ECA done.
However now that the transcripts have come and I want to apply for ECA with WES for her. I have 2 doubts here:
1. My score without spouse is 443 (with wife's ECA done it will be 444 anyway), yet when I am applying for WES, what if the score draw releases below 443?
2. Will I be able to include my wife even after getting an ITA? This is because reading all the discussions in various forums, it looks difficult to have sponsorship for her later.

What do I do? should I go for ECA at this stage?

The CRS is expected to be around 440 till August this year, so, if you can get WES before that, you will be able to get ITA for sure.

On the flip side, even if you get PR without your spouse and you have to sponsor your wife, you can do it. Its bit tedious but not impossible. You will have to wait a little longer.

Thank you, just to reconfirm can I exclude the travel in out from Personal activities. I have mentioned them in Travel activities.
Also, the personal activities section and Address history section are matching but I have not taken into consideration the small trips to India for vacation within that international deputation.

As I mentioned, the out and in should be mentioned (for Indian passport holders). If you have stamps on your passport, you should mention that since they ask for full passport scans.

Hello everybody

please need advice:
- We have a profile with a score 423.
- We are waiting for a nominee ; the agent said may be we will get it by May !!!!
- Our profile and language test expires by 23 rd September 2018
Do you think if we get invitation by June is it OK for the expiry dates of language test ?
- Some one told us that we should take an other exam

Please can any one advise us

It would be fine however before Sept 23 (which is my birthday as well), you will have to submit a PR application.
Once PR application is submitted, then only the expiry timers freeze.

Can I claim 15 marks for my "first cousin" (My dad's brother daughter) in EE? She lives in Ontario, will I get any added advantage if I get NOI from OINP? I am at 434 and if I could claim marks from my cousin I will sit at pretty comfortable position. I know the answer and still just want to cross-check with experts here.

Looking at the number people entering EE, It seems highly unlikely that score will fall to 423 in near future. Your agent might be giving you some positive hopes but its better to realistic also. If you can improve your score by reappearing for IELTS you must definitely do so.

hello everyone, please I need some advice :

Is it possible to claim points from foreign education (ECA) after got the ITA? I did not claim the point before ITA, but I want to claim the point now, because after some changes, my points is below the cut off score now.

Or is it better that I decline the ITA and make a new profile ?


Thank you

Very strange question, if you already have ITA with you then why you want to claim points now? How will that help you? The whole purpose of points is to to get an ITA which you already have. Or are you trying to say that your ealier points were due to some mistake/misrepresentation on your part which once corrected leads to a drop in score? If it is latter then you should definitely reject ITA.

Hi hope 2018, thank you for the advice. Yes, I made some mistake for my education history. That makes my point goes down from 445 to 430 which is below the cut off points.

So, I was wondering if I should

1.add my ECA to claim the point now? I did not put my ECA before received the invitation because there was some problem with it, and because its taking too long (almost 4 months) so last time I decided to not put it in. (However, its been fixed and mailed to me just as the day I got my ITA )

2. Or, I can just decline this, make a new express entry profile again with the new score (with my bachelor degree) .

I have one more question,

After declining an ITA, how long before I can get into the pool again? should I create a new profile or just use the same profile ?

Thank you

Can any one clarify me about my experience..

1.Worked for an Indian company as an Electrical Engineer from June 2012 to sep 2015

2.Took an annual leave in my indian company from jan 2013 to march 2013 to work for shutdown project in Qatar as an Electrical Engineer and came back and joined back to my Indian Company.
3.Took again an annual leave in my indian company from jan 2014 to may 2014 to work for a similar shutdown project in qatar as an electrical engineer and joined back in may 2014.
All my work is continous without even a single weeks gap. The only thing concerned is that I worked for a different company during my annual leave tenure. I believe this should not put me in problems.

Also do i need to provide PCC from Qatar. I havent stayed in Qatar for 6 months in a row.

Replies from experts please
