Hi all,

I received my ITA on 16th November. My question is regarding work ex certificate. I have work ex in a company from Feb 11 to Feb 13. However, in order to match the NOC requirements of post graduation work ex, I had mentioned only work ex from March 12 to Feb 13.
In the reference letter, what work ex should I ask my employer to mention? Feb 11 to Feb 13, or Mar 12 to Feb 13? Thanks

I need help on "two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees. One must be be program of 3 or more years"
I am building my profile and I have my credential assessment report, Canadian equivalency is a bachelor degree 4 years and a postgraduate diploma one semester. Therefore, I think I am eligible to claim points for "two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees. One must be be program of 3 or more years"
This option is not available in the education history, the available options are bachelor degree, master degree and phd degree. How can I include my Postgraduate Diploma?

Hi BIZZIB,


Thanks for replying.

Its a 3 a year Masters degree and I know it would be considered Masters in Canada. My question however is concerning my bachelors degree photocopy. What would happen if I just provide them transcripts but NOT the photocopy of the degree?

BIZZIB said:
What was the duration of your Masters ?
If two, it will be regarded as Bachelor degree in Canada by WES.
3 year MCA masters will be a Master program

I submitted my application on Nov 14. I have a doubt regarding work experience letter:
My company has policy that managers or HR cannot provide employment verification letter with all the details that CIC need. They can only provide a letter on blank paper (no letterhead), detailing job duties. The employment verification is provided via a document from theworknumber.com. Interested parties can also visit the website to verify the details. So I uploaded the following in a single doc:
1. A letter explaining the above.
2. Job duties letter from manager, signed by her, along with her contact info
3. Verification letter from theworknumber.com: It has employment status (Active), length of employment, job title, biweekly pay, number of hours per week, start date, total income earned per year for last 4 years and a footnote saying this document is electronically approved by the employer.
4. Original job offer letter - its on company letter head
5. Promotion letter - it is also on letterhead. It has my current annual salary
6. 2 most recent pay slips

What are the chances of my application getting rejected? Any ideas? I am nervous about this, but have no other options.

Hi guys,
I missed my middle name while applying in express entry.
I have withdrawn my profile as there was no way to add my middle name in it.
Now I am applying again and it asks if I have applied in EE before.
Do I say Yes or No?
It also asks if I have a Unique Identification number.
What is that?
Please reply to this asap
Thanks in advance

Hello,

I am in Canada as Visitor ( stay extended under restoration)after completing 3 yr exp. under PGWP.

My PR file is under process since couple of months under Express Entry.

My question is: Is it good idea to leave Canada while file is under process? I am planning to visit India for next 4 months or I can say until I get PR?

Please let me know any best suggestion as I am really confused about it.

Thanks

You will see a placeholder in your myCIC account if you received a request from IRCC to submit Schedule A.

Login to myCIC account, click on your e-APR and then on "View submitted application".
Thank you Raj.

I have one more question about Education history where we need to mention primary, secondary and post secondary education. Do we need to mention according to India or Canada?

In India,

Primary: 1 to 7 ?????
Secondary: 8 to 12 ????
Post-Secondary: ????

In Canada,

Primary???
Secondary???
Post secondary????

Confused? Please advise.

Thank you.

You have to mention only your degrees/diplomas that you are claiming points for. You don't have to mention your education history right from your first grade.

Hello All,

Am new here in the forum and preparing for prerequisites (IELTS etc) for creating EE profile. Me and my wife are 27yrs old and having around 6yrs of IT (Software development) experience I did google about the IT job prospects in Canada meanwhile writing over this forum and looking for people with similar background to help by sharing their views or any kind of information about IT jobs in Canada. It would be really helpful for me.

Thanks
