Express Entry Step by step instructions.

Hello everyone,

I have a small query. If someone is able to guide me, I'll be really grateful.

It is regarding settlement funds. I am the principal applicant and would be going with my spouse and kid as and when I receive the ITA. Score is 446. However, I do not have necessary funds required for 3 people in my savings account balance or term deposits. My husband's general provident fund (government fund) adequately covers the fund requirement. Will this be accepted by the Canadian authorities or is it necessary that only the principal applicant's account should have the required balance.

Please guide me on how to go about the settlement funds as I am expecting ITA in the near future seeing the current trends.

Hi. If I got you correctly, you mean the required funds belongs to one of you who is not the principal applicant. If that's correct, the owner of this funds can do a gift deed to the PA stating that the PA is free to use the money as settlement fund. Note that this fund must be transfered to the PA's account and it must be readily available for use.

Thank you. Is there any link where I can gather more information on type of settlement funds accepted.

Hope someone can shed some lights on my issue.

My boy friend is currently in 3rd year of Canadian university. (It is 4 year of University program)

After he had finished the second year of his study, he obtained two years of diploma which is something like this:

The TRU Visual Arts Diploma program consists of two years of core and elective courses, all of which may be taken singly, if desired. The holder of a TRU Visual Arts Diploma can enter the third year of the Bachelor of Fine Arts (Visual Arts) degree, or other university programs. Thus, it is strongly recommended that those students wishing to pursue the BFA degree at TRU or other post-secondary institution complete the Visual Arts Diploma to achieve third year standing before advancing to upper level classes in Visual Arts.

His diploma seems like a ladder to obtain a bachelor degree. But by itself, it is called a diploma. Therefore, I would like to know if his diploma can be counted as 'two year program at University' for EE stream.

Anyone knows about it, please advise.

Thank you.

Hello everyone. This is regarding a PR application from New Delhi, India. Had a few questions and would be grateful if fellow community members and friends could help out.
1. Me and my spouse have applied together - me being the primary applicant. Can I show my spouse's PF, PPF, FD as PoFs?
2. Do I have to submit an undertaking from the institution (bank, EPFO office etc) where my spouse's PF, PPF and FD is kept, that I have access to them?
3. When my spouse submits PPF, does my spouse have to show that I have access to PPF?
4. While submitting PF, does the online statement generated by Umang app (UAN website) work as PoF if submitted along with UAN card?
5. In case my spouse's PoF is accepted, can we only show PF + PPF + a few FDs together?

No you do not have to proof funds if you have a valid job offer.

 

[ersandee]

No you do not have to proof funds if you have a valid job offer.

Thank you, that was lightning quick.

Another question is should i go for work visa and go to Canada than waiting for EE-ITA, as my current CRS is 439, (Waiting for my wife's ECA to add 10 more points) ?

Hello everyone. This is regarding a PR application from New Delhi, India. Had a few questions and would be grateful if fellow community members and friends could help out.
1. Me and my spouse have applied together - me being the primary applicant. Can I show my spouse's PF, PPF, FD as PoFs? Your spouse should do a gift deed to you and support it with an LOE. You will also do an LOE stating that the funds is delivered to you to pursue your Canadian dream and that you're free to spend it. Remember that this fund must be in your own bank account or a joint account with your spouse, not in her own account.
2. Do I have to submit an undertaking from the institution (bank, EPFO office etc) where my spouse's PF, PPF and FD is kept, that I have access to them? You cannot use a bank document that is in your spouses account name and number. This fund must be in your own bank account/name/account number. Or in a joint account with your spouse. Yes, u must submit a bank reference letter but it must be in your name as the PA.
3. When my spouse submits PPF, does my spouse have to show that I have access to PPF? You are the PA and it is expected that you submit POF that's in your name or in a joint account with your wife.
4. While submitting PF, does the online statement generated by Umang app (UAN website) work as PoF if submitted along with UAN card? Why not walk into your bank and print a proof of fund on a bank letter head paper. Also ask for a reference letter to support your claim or stick to submitting one of these alone.
5. In case my spouse's PoF is accepted, can we only show PF + PPF + a few FDs together? Proof of fund must be in your name and in your own account or a joint account with your spouse.

You have a fantastic profile. You can travel on a work visa whilst you process your EE from Canada. 439 is a good score and adding extra 10 is superb!

Very very urgent...
Actually I had submitted my EE file but I have not uploaded IELTS certificate although I had shown in OINP documents.
Would it reject my file or some issue may arise?
I am very nervous...

Usually they would send you an additional document request in case they need this certificate. That being said some applicant recently claimed rejection for not uploading this document (whether this is true or not I do not know).

 

[harneetk]

But there was no column of uploading IELTS...
