Express Entry Step by step instructions.

So I should not Put SSC and HSC. ONLY Bachelors and Masters, right?

Yes, that's correct... only Bachelors and Masters. Once you create your profile, your score will reflect with these degrees considered.
You can use this tool as well to see the predictive score you will get in total post creating the profile.

Dear All,

I have a query about the experience letter. It is hard to get the experience letter from my employer. I do have my initial offer letter, every year compensation letter (show my salary stc.), my deputation letter to USA, USA compensation letter and employment verification letter in USA.
Can I put all of them together in a single pdf and that will work.

Can someone please help.


Thanks

You can use a combination of documents in the absence of the required information, but what is most important is the duties and responsibilities. Check this thread to see alternatives that applicants have resorted to in the absence of a reference letter http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/nail-the-challenge-of-getting-reference-letter-from-current-employer-t397796.0.html

Hi Senior members please help.

I am working of my APR and just reached the document checklist point.

I am asked to provide an Offer of Employment as a required document. I have a 1 year work experience in Canada based on which my EE profile was. I had a PNP (based on higher studies), now the job I am current on and taking credit for is non LMIA and I was offered this job as a part time role while I was just finishing my thesis (on study permit). The job was internally changed to full time regular once I finished my Masters and obtained PGWP.

What do you suggest I provide against this document requirement. The offer of employment I have says Part time role and then I have an email request from my manager to HR to change my employment status and then another email to confirm that status has been changed. Can I stitch all these documents and provide this as an offer of employment for this job?

Thank you, awaiting your responses.

I am still researching this, any inputs would be appreciated. As per my understanding so far, I had said "YES" to the Intended employment in Work History section of my e-APR. If I change that to No, my checklist changes and I am not asked to upload "Offer of Employment".

Not sure what would be the correct selection for my case. I do not have a LMIA based job. I am working on PGWP.

Thanks.

I'm sure someone else asked this question a while back. I just can't remember the answer

You have to declare "yes" and write a letter of explanation regarding this.

Hello,

Pls I need urgent help!!!

I started working with my new company on 22 November, 2014, which is suppose to complete 2years by 22, November, 2016. Unfortunately, when i created my express entry PROFILE today, it shows 473 points (which was the points i calculated for 2years when I used the CRS tool) instead of 260 points for one year.

Are you sure is not going to affect my current ITA since is before 22 of November, 2016?
What can I do?

Also, the EE profile only shows years and months!

Thank you all

I have a new question.....

I have my PR application in and is currently being processed. Recently got asked to pay the RPRF fees, which I promptly made.

Yesterday I got a letter in MYCIC account stating that my passport has less than 12 months validity. It doesn't really say much else, other than once I have renewed it I need to send them a scanned copy to avoid any delays. No time frame or dead line is given or indicated

Anyone else seen this issue? will it delay/halt my application?

Many thanks

BBB

Hey guys, sorry if I'm on the wrong place, but I'm kinda new here so I don't know where else this question should go.
I'm about to graduate with a dual bachelors degree: One in electrical engineering and another in mathematics, and I'm already looking for my first job (In my home country, not canada). I could get a job as an electrical engineer, but I want to work as a software developer. As my degree program has only a couple programming classes on it, my question is: Would the fact that my degree is not directly related to the NOC 2174 be a liability in the future, when I would apply for EE? As in, could I get denied based on not having a computer science/ software engineering degree?

Hi all
I need help with counting my part time work experience. I am a little confused. So I worked part time with more than 15 hours per week (20-25 hrs) and it took 14 months to get required 1,560 hours. Is that ok? Or because it is part time it has to be 24 months of work experience for express entry?

Thanks

If you have acquired 1,560 hours of work experience in 14 months, it is fine, you don't have to necessarily wait for 24 months to achieve 1,560 hours when working part time.

Stanlee -

According to the below note, if the applicant worked only one part-time job, he should calculate it at only 15 hours/week and should have worked for 24 months. The additional hours cannot be added up, IMO.

Full Time

30 hours/week for 12 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
Part time

15 hours/week for 24 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
Or
30 hours/week for 12 months at more than one job = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)

You must show that you did the duties set out in the lead statement of the occupational description in the NOC, including all the essential duties and most of the main duties listed.

If you do not show that your experience meets the description in the NOC, we will not accept your application.

Link --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/immigrate/skilled/apply-who.asp

However, if he has worked multiple part-time jobs, then he could have worked 30 (or more) hours a week and can claim 1560 hours in 12 months.

Hi All,

I have a question. Can you please help?
My date of birth on passport is different from the dob on IELTS and Education Credential Assessment certificates. I recently corrected it on my passport. Will that be an issue?

Thank you.

Thank you.

DOB has to be in sync on all documents IMO. If you cannot get all your documents re-issued , I believe you can submit a notarized affidavit and a letter of explanation. The decision might depend on the VO processing your application!
