Express Entry Step by step instructions.

Hi Guys! I have a few queries. I am yet to go into the pool and so because I am waiting for my ECAs to come from WES.
I am applying for a PR to move to Canada. Can somebody please tell me:-

1. What can/should I provide as proof of funds once I receive an ITA? Please provide an exhaustive list if you can.
>> Liquid cash in form of savings account or fixed deposits. And in your name only. Otherwise you need NOC from the other name holders
2. When should I go for a police certificate and medical examinations? How long is the validity of it?
>> If you are gonna get it from some other countries (other than your country of origin), I suggest you start the process now. It should be valid as long as you dont travel to that country again while you are waiting for PR. For your country of origin, I would suggest you wait till you are asked to submit. Medical examination, can be done in advance also.
3. My passport expires in 3rd week of January 2019. So should I wait till I get a new passport or, as I am aware, I can update my profile in the pool as and when a new passport comes? I ask so just to understand if my profile stands a chance for rejection or any caution from CIC's end as it is nearing expiry?
>> I had renewed my passport, so my suggestion would be to renew it now while you are still not in pool or even after you are in pool, you just need to go and update passport details.

Thank you already!

Hi,

I have traveled to Bhutan from India via road for a period of 7-8 days. However, the immigration officers in Bhutan did not stamp/ mention anything on my passport. They had just asked us a copy of our passports along with a photograph.

How can I then prove my travel details to CIC ?

Thanks

Hello everyone,

Currently my CRS is 425 and I need to do a master's degree to increase my score.
I have applied for and got accepted by a distance learning (online) MA program in Middlesex University. It lasts 1 year. I have used the equivalency tool on the WES website and the result shows that the Canadian equivalency is 'Master's Degree'.
But before I accept the offer from the program, I wanted to find out if this would really give me the extra CRS points that I need and my score would go up to 460ish? Or maybe online programs do not add any points at all?

Thank you in advance for your help and please forgive me if this is the wrong place to ask.

Thank you I have looked into this, was little confused that's why asked this question . From link it's seems yes I can get points for my maternal uncle but the catch is his son (my cousin) is Canadian citizen (not him) and seems like i cant get any points.

Anyone thoughts ?

Hi.. I have recently got an ITA. I worked as a teacher for 4.5 years and then I tried to change my occupation and joined a company as Sr, Business Development Executive. For express entry I mentioned only teaching experience as sales executive profile would have a different NOC. What would you suggest can I mention this sales profile experience in my personal history or should i hide it completely as I din’t mention it before.

Please help at your earliest convenience.

Thanks

What you guys suggest on Point 3
3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp.

Through which agency as per anyone's experience is better which takes less time as compared to others? i.e. WES, IQAS, ICAS etc. or any other you know. I'm applying from Pakistan so also seek some information regarding which documents they will actually require for assessment.

Thanks

As per my experience WES is good and comparatively fast....you would need to send your transcripts and degree certificates from your university to them. Rest of the details you can check by visiting their website.

Can anyone explain me:
For NOC skills does the designation has to be whole experience duration or it can be something like: started working as assistant which is not a category for NOC but later promoted to manager. Once promoted to manager will the whole employment experience (prior to promotion and post promotion) count as NOC designated employment or only starting after promotion ?

Hi All,

My NOC is 2281, I am planning to apply for Express Entry(waiting for WES to complete). I have a doubt about roles & responsibilities letter. I am not informing my current employer that I am going to apply for PR. What alternatives do i have to produce other proof? Do they accept salary slips, slalry revision letters etc?

Thanks,
Rajesh Durai

There are certain threads in this forum where such issues have been discussed in detail. Would suggest you to search for those for more details.
