Express Entry Step by step instructions.

Yes, you can either go ahead with these documents OR you can simply remove him from the application (not considered misrepresentation). Your prerogative. Good luck.

Thank you Rajkamal, another big miss on my part, I had answered "Yes" for do you have a valid job offer, and now after wondering why they are asking for "Employment record" "offer of employment" and "letter of employment" seperately, i realized that question is for people with arranged or LMIA jobs. I am PGWP candidate but got a job here after graduation. If i change my answer to no, that isn't affecting my score as I still have 1 year of legimitate work experience I can prove. Again, no need to decline right?

On a side note, that section of the EE profile was so confusing. "Do you have a valid job offer?" and "Is it LMIA sponsored" were seperate questions and I had no idea the first one was also referring to LMIA/arranged jobs

Also for employment records, they don't really specify records for which job should be uploaded where so I can just select any one upload button for one job right

Hello Guys,
Appreciate if someone can answer my query
I received the ITA and uploaded the necessary documents. While uploading the employment proofs in the upload documents page, the Employment tenures in the “Document Column” were termed as "Employment 1", "Employment 2"..and so on, hence i uploaded the employment documents in chronological order. However, now when I see my "View Submitted Application" page, the document column reflects the employment tenures along with designation but it now has a different set of employment proof corresponding to each tenure since i had uploaded them in chronological order earlier.

For example, the screen is showing documents of my 3rd employer got attached to the 1st employer row.

Please advise.

Correct. If it is not affecting your score, no issues. Just answer NO to that question and proceed.

On a side note, that section of the EE profile was so confusing. "Do you have a valid job offer?" and "Is it LMIA sponsored" were seperate questions and I had no idea the first one was also referring to LMIA/arranged jobs

If you are just applying based on your current work experience, you can answer NO to that question (This question is for people who want to claim the 50/200 points for job offer.

Also for employment records, they don't really specify records for which job should be uploaded where so I can just select any one upload button for one job right

If your reference letter contains all the details required by IRCC, you can submit that alone.
You can submit your payslips and T4s as supporting documentation.

I believe that the order of the placeholders would match the order of the jobs in the work history section. I would suggest that you upload documents in such a way that in the documents upload page the order matches.

Thank you Rajkamal. To reconfirm, I checked my invitation PDF and I didn't get 50 points for LMIA/Arranged job, plus I recalculated my score on CIC site and it is still the same so I guess I am in the clear.

I am at a comfortable 548, and it'll take me 2-3 weeks to get my PCC from the Indian consulate anyway, so I am wondering for my obviously irrational peace of mind to reject this ITA, fix all the mistakes, and wait for the next one. Assuming I do that, does all the information I entered for personal history and travel history etc. get saved or do I have to re-enter all that again. Extremely first world issue but just wanted to know.

Hi every one,

I need help from you guys,actually my husband already filled for express entry as primarily candidate and i am the secondary candidate last year JUL 2015 and this year in JUL 2016 it got expired and agent asked us again huge amount to renew that file again. First of all i would like to know is it true that we have to pay again for renewal our express entry if not can we do it now in DEC 2016??

our total score is not good at all because i am working in travel company from last 5 years in Dubai and my husband working from last 8 yrs in Dubai,So our score is not at par.

then we both decided to visit Canada on tourist visa and find out the possibilities. Then we meet with few agent (in Brampton) maximum of agent want huge amount CAD 40-50K approx but no guarantee for grating visa.

Then we meet one agent he advice us that apply student visa for your wife (2 yrs program) then you will get full time open work permit then you can work here and your wife can study------i mean is it really good option. If yes then on which college should i take admissions must be reasonable and good.

For all the college they required IELTS score or without IELTS i can get admission.I have given General IELTS test but total score 5.5Band only

What will be the cost of living there.If my husband will get reasonable job there can we both manage there or not.

actually i have lot of question but i would like to know someone can help me ,i want to come there permanently.

i will wait for positive response.

Thanks

Hello Guys.

I would like to open my EE profile. I am applying with a foreign degree. Do I need an ECA before opening the profile? My wife got her master's degree in Canada but the bachelor degree is not Canadian. Do we have to get an ECA for her also? Thanks.

If you're the principal applicant then you would need an ECA, otherwise your profile will be deemed ineligible.

Regarding your wife, no need to get an ECA for the bachelors, her highest degree (masters) will give you the most points.

If I have a relative in Canada but I know that I won't be able to prove that, should I put in my profile YES or NO?

I don't want to lie but it's pointless saying yes since I won't have the documents to prove it.

Hi Experts,

For marital status as married, can I, as an applicant, apply without spouse? And my spouse would apply for spouse sponsored-PR later for some personal reason? if yes, do i need to state any explanation to cic on this?

TIA

Hello guys,

I had a quick question. My company was about to apply for LMIA. My PGWP is about to expire in July 2017. And my immigration consultant told me if my company pays another $1000 along with LMIA fees, then they would be able to acquire another 2 year work permit for me. Is it true?

Thanks. Do I need to assess both bachelor's and master's degree?

Yes, you can apply as married and spouse not accompanying. You need not explain anything to CIC, even if you want to, you can do that post ITA.

Answer NO to the question and use the LOE to explain why you answered NO.
