Is Express Entry draw based on high CRC Score among the same NOC group or just high CRC score irrespective of NOC
It is sufficient if you post your query once.

It is based only on the CRS; EE is NOC agnostic.

Hello,
I am currently on PGWP working in Canada under NOC Cat B, which is about to expire in Dec'16
It won't be possible for my employer to extend my work permit since he has to apply for LMIA

Am I eligible under FSW?
Working full time under implied status will it be included as experience?

ECA: In Process
IELTS: L/S/W/R 8/6.5/6.5/8.5
Work exp in Canada: 1 yr to be completed in Oct'16

Please advise, Thanks
You would be eligible in October 2016 if you have at least one year of full-time (or equivalent part-time experience) gained AFTER you got your PGWP approved.

Hi Guys,

I am Software Engineer, working in Delhi, India for the past 9+ years.

I am planning to apply for Canadian PR visa via Express Entry Program. I do not have a job offer in hand. CRS Score calculated using the tool and it came out 393.

I want to know,
- Has anybody applied PR without any job offer?. If yes, has anybody got an ITA?
Yes, and yes.
Most people who have received PR through EE do not have job offers.

- Any opinions about hiring an immigration consultant for the entire VISA process?
It's really not necessary.
Hi istari,

- Did you get the PR visa?
- If yes, How much did it take for you from the beginning till the end?
- Did you opt for PNP?
- My CRS score is coming around 390-400. Is that sufficient enough to get ITA?

Regards,
Karthik

No. You will need to increase your score (the most recent draw was 480+). Look into PNP.

Did you apply your own or through an immigration consultant?

Funds n Loan Inquiry :

Hi,

I have 16000 Canadian Dollar in my bank account. 1 year ago (before starting immigration process) I applied for a small business loan amounting 12000 Canadian dollar. This loan has been sanctioned by yesterday. So I will have 2 accounts now, one my own current account having 16000 Canadian dollar from more than 1 year. Other with loan money.
In case I get ITA, can this loan become an issue for me?
How to tell CIC about this loan?

Thanks

Well, IMO, it is sufficient if you show the funds that you have been maintaining since last year. As long as you can prove that funds are yours, you won't have a problem. No this loan won't be a problem - Most applicants would automatically become ineligible if everyone subtracted their liabilities from their assets.

Yes, when CIC updates their system, it happens sometimes. You can try logging in after 24 hours. If the issue recurs, you can use option Report a Technical Issue and attach screenshot of the same.

After you receive ITA, once you log in to your Express Entry profile, you will have two buttons
- Continue Application
- Decline Invitation

Once you click Continue Application, you will be taken to pages similar to your Express Entry forms that you filled up. This page would have all the information carried forward from your Express Entry profile and additionally you also need to fill up Address History, Personal History and Travel History for each member listed in the application.

Post completion of each section, the system would generate a personal document checklist based on the information submitted by you in the previous pages. A sample document checklist for a family of two would look like something below.

Supporting Documents for Primary Applicant
Details Document Name Instructions Options
Not Provided Passports/Travel Documents (Multiple) (required) instructions Upload file
