Hi All,

I need some clarification. I have completed BCA, MCA(Regular) then immediately I have joined in an organization as a regular employee. Meanwhile, I had pursue regular course for 3 years. So, can I show my third degree in EE profile, if I show then, will it affect my company experience and will I get any extra score while computing for 3rd degree? Please help me on this?
You wont get extra points even if you declare the 3rd degree. Since u already have a masters, u get 23/25.. next option is to take a PhD and get 25/25.. And it will not affect your company experience as long as you declare the number of working hours per week to be above that of the statutory requirement for full time employment by CIC..

I meant to ask about the Express Entry profile. I know that I'll have to provide details and documents for my kid post ITA, but I can't find any section for my kid in the express entry profile; just for me as primary applicant and for my wife as spouse.
This is because your child's details have no impact on you CRS points. They only become important post-ITA.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your help always. I have another question, I just got my reference letter from my supervisor. It says everything required by CIC. Now, after he put in the job duties, it went to the second page and he signed on the second page. Both the pages have company letter head on it. One of my friend told me that the letter has to be on one page. Can anybody advise. I can remove some roles from the list. My basic roles are mentioned in 18 points and my departmental roles are 5 lines so it takes the second page as well. Is it Ok to be on 2 pages. I feel like I should include all the roles mentioned in Job Description and that is what it is.

Can you please also advise what else should I attach with it, NOA? T4s? Paystubs?. My NOC is 2282

Hello all,

I have question regarding travel history post ITA.
First:
CIC is asking about my past 10 year travel history form my country of origin(INDIA) or country of Residence.
As i came on student visa in Canada in 2013, should i mention this as a trip to Canada from India and say it is still ongoing and purpose will be study.

Second about intended work
Has ABC been working full-time for the employer on their current work permit for at least one year.
As there are no punctuation mark in statement i interpret this question in two ways.
1) did I work for atleat one year with the employer mentioned on my current WP. (Ans will be NO as I have Open Work permit) ( Has ABC been working full-time for the employer on their current work permit, for at least one year)
2) did I work for at least one year with the employer since I got my work permit. ( Ans will be yes as I did not change my job from beginning) (Has ABC been working full-time for the employer, on their current work permit for at least one year)

Option 2) make no sense for me as they did not state employer as current employer or any employer in case someone changed their job multiple time in past.

Thanks
Rajinder Singh

Getting married after submitting the PR application sounds wise to me. This is because once the e-APR is submitted, points will NOT be recalculated if spouse is added to the application.

Hi Seniors.

I stayed in Singapore for around 18 months on employment pass but travelled back to Pakistan every 2 months for a few days, as well as travelled to Malaysia a number of times for short trips. During my time I in Singapore, I stayed in different hotels as accommodation was provided by the company and changed a lot of hotels.

I will be mentioning all my trips in the travel history as per the passport stamps but I'm concerned about providing the details of my residence in Singapore. I don't have any evidence or proof for any address in Singapore, please suggest what to do.

Moreover, I was working on an employment pass through a third party - a Singaporean company, but was not actually working for them but for the company back in Pakistan, I don't have an experience letter for my time in Singapore. How do I justify my time in Singapore and employment pass, but with no experience letter from the Singaporean firm? Is it okay if I explain the whole scenario in LOE that it was an outsourcing arrangement, and that I was actually working for Pakistan and was continuously employed here?

Hello Seniors,

Actually I am living in a country where there in no Canadian Embassy or consulate. So I have following questions -

(1) For stamping the visa on passport after 'Passport Request', should it be sent to a specific embassy or I can go to any Canadaian embassy in the world to get visa on my passport.
(2) How many days they give to get Visa stamped on passport ?
(3) I came to know that they will give 30 days to accept nomination. Will I be needed to accept it by email or on CIC EE profile ?
(4) Can the Medical be done from any of their authorised centres of CIC or it has to be done from any specific centre ?

1-Depending on where you are, you will be informed of your visa office and will have to send your passport via courier.
2-A couple of my friends sent their passports to London office for stamping and got passports back in Pakistan between 15-20 days.
3-I believe you will receive a email notification to your email address, and will have to open your CIC account to view the message and will be instructed by that message on what to do next.
4-Any of their authorized centers.

Hi,

You don't do both at the same time. First you enter the express entry pool by creating an EE profile , then after receiving an ITA, you apply for Permanent residence.

The email you received says congratulations for creating a profile should have you Job Bank reference number and instructions on how to register.

All the best.

Thank you so so very much. I didn't know that all emails appear at the very bottom of the screen.

Yes, I got the email with my Job bank code and my profile number. I have completed my job bank - Its weird the kind of jobs they are sending me? is that what you guys get?

Has the job bank helped anyone???

Just wondering
::)

[size=10pt]HEY AGAIN,

SORRY I DON'T THINK IF YOU UNDERSTOOD MY QUESTION.

I CREATED AN EXPRESS ENTRY PROFILE. HOWEVER, WHILST FILLING IN, THEY WERE TWO SECTIONS,

1. SECTIOIN 1 = ONLINE APPLICATION
2. SECTION 2 = EXPRESS ENTRY

THE INFORMATION ON EACH SECTION WAS THE SAME EXCEPT FOR ONE SECTION

I SUBMITTED ANY HOW, AND RECEIVED MY EXPRESS ENTRY PROFILE NUMBER AND JOB BANK REFERENCE NUMBER.

HOWEVER, ONLY SECTION 2 = EXPRESS ENTRY IS THE ONE INDICATING THAT ITS SUBMITTED

SECTION 1 = ONLINE APPLICATION STILL SHOWS THAT ITS NOT SUBMITTED?

QUESTION: - IS THAT THE SECTION I WILL USE FOR APPLYING AFTER MY ITA?

JUST WONDERING.

PLEASE ELABORATE FURTHER.

THANKS AGAIN :'(
