Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[TGTCAN]

Hello fellow guys.

I am a CANADA immigration aspirant. I am looking to apply for express entry. I am married & 30 yrs old. My current score is 469 (without spouse). I have a query regarding applying with or without spouse at this stage. My wife is pregnant and currently not in position to apply and appear for IELTS and My family don't want her to appear for next 12-18 months. So, I will have to apply alone. My query is if I get ITA say over the next 3-6 months and move to Canada , then how can I call my wife and child to Canada? Then, does she need to apply separately through the express entry process or I will be able to sponsor her and my child?

Please reply so that I decide on whether or not to apply now (alone) .

Thanks in advance.

]You will be applying under FSW then, if you have at least 1560 hours as as Assistant Manager go ahead with you most recent role matching NOC.

See the requirements below: need more help feel free to ask!


Thank you Jay! I have more than 1560 hrs in my current role. But during all my years(6.9) of experience i have 4 different job title in 4 different company but same field. so will i select NOC based on my last position so i get 15 points as have 6+ years of experience?

Thank you

I would really appreciate it if someone could give some info on FSW points. My husband and I have been in Canada for 7 years as students, and with work permits. We both work, but he is still a part-time student; I work as an Occasional teacher. Will CIC count that as arranged employment? It's not full time, but that's the way of the TDSB as it stands. We both have graduate degrees, we're from an English speaking country (so scored perfect on tests), we've been here for nearly a decade; we figure it's time to fully immigrate. Any thoughts, knowledge to share. It would be most appreciated.

You're welcome.

Can someone report the thread to the moderator to ask that it becomes a sticky? This question gets asked quite often.

Yampower, it is necessary to show proof of founds by principal applicant or may be the dependent one? we are applying from Colombia and we have that inquiry!

hi all

newbie, site looks very informative.

I have been working in Canada on and off for the past 6 weeks, but no work visa.

I've read over, added up points and without sounding off the mark without a job offer looks like 0 chance of me getting into the country. The score looks currently 450+, even with max scores in my English language tests I still dont make it close.

I work in IT (JD Edwards consultant/business analyst), I have plenty of savings and a long working history. (32 years old)

Have I missed something or without a job offer do I have 0 chance.

I am not looking just to work in Canada but permanently re-locate as well.

Any advice much welcome, if the job offer is the only way to go anyone know of reputable agencies in the Ontario region.

Thanks

Rob

Hello
Need some guidance on police verification. Per the guidelines, the PCC should get completed from the place of living for last 12 months. In my case, I am currently in Hyderabad and originally from Delhi. My passport issuance place is Delhi. Few questions:
1. Assuming the verification needs to be done from Hyderabad, will that be a concern at the later stage where my passport has different address (permanent address) from the current address?
2. Based on Hyderabad police website, they need one of the following as part of Purpose of PCC (Letter of Proof).
•Consulate letter
•Visa copy / National Visa Center Case File Number
•Job offer letters from companies
•In case of Students Admission copy from concerned University
What should be the response for this point! Seems they will not process the request unless they have answer to this!!

Would appreciate some guidance on the above points from the members of this board...

Thanks in advance

Can somebody help me in understanding the difference between Sign In Partner (which uses Banking Information) and GCKey?
I believe GCKey is what we're supposed to go ahead with, correct me if wrong.
Thank you.

Hi guys !
I'm looking to apply for EE in the future, so I'm trying to make sure I have everything sorted out for when the time comes. I have a couple of questions.

1. I know that work experience gained while studying full-time doesn't count. But what about work experience gained while studying part-time ? Is this acceptable ?

2. I was never vaccinated as a child. Will this be grounds for me to fail the medical exam ? Should I get vaccinated now ?

3. I am an Australian/British dual national (I have 2 passports). I will be applying for EE with my Australian passport, as I have lived in Australia my whole life. I have travelled extensively in the past 10 years, but only in the EU using my UK passport. As such, neither of my passports have any stamps, even though I've travelled a lot (although I've never lived outside of Australia for more than 6 months). Will this be a problem when they ask for my travel history ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes you are supposed to used GCkey only to create EE profile.

Hello Experts;

I need some advice on creating profile for express entry. I have one year of foreign work experience but I did not mention that while applying my study permit (2012) and work permit (2014) in Canada. Now if I mention this foreign work experience in the express entry profile will that generate any query during the review of my file? I have all the documents related to my previous experience. Experts please advise.

Hello friends,
After AOR I am asked to provide more documents and there are extra slots appeared in mycic. But the message from officer also says that I have to forward documents to office in Warsaw. Is it normal?
The list of asked documents contains copies of travel passport (why they want me to send copies? I already uploaded them) and spouse's birth certificate (they do not mention it has to be copy and I really dislike idea to send original).

Has anybody seen this kind of requests?
Do I really need to send docs to Warsaw or can just upload it into mycic?

Can one apply for Express Entry if they are in Canada as a visitor? If yes, is there any benefit to this? Thank you forum!

As express entry is online you can apply from anywhere. No extra points with the visitor record.
