Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[nsrk]

Hi,
I have done ECA for my masters and mentioned that in my Express entry profile. I haven't mentioned anything about my bachelor's since I am not claiming any points for that. Is this ok?

Hi All,
My medical results were approved 2 days back and the Landing Fee and Application fee were both paid along with Application. I was just wondering what would be the next step? Would they ask me for my Passport to stamp the visa?

Can someone please advice?

I am the principal applicant but my wife's uncle lives in Canada in another province and she has visited her uncle severally. Though we intend to live in our province, the question is, they asked if my wife have relatives living in Canada? will this in any way affect my application? how best can I go about answering the question?

Hi All,

I have a clarification on POF. I have funds which will sum upto 10,000 CAD in one of my bank account and 4500 CAD in another bank account and 4500 is third bank account. Am planning to transfer all the amounts into 10,000 CAD account and show that account as a POF. Is that a right way to showcase that? or should i show it individually?

Also, I have the fund as gift deed from My Mom and Uncle which can sum upto 9000 CAD. Remaining 10000 CAD is the amount which was repayment of fund from my Father-in-law where I have helped him once for his personal needs an year back and he repayed it now. Should i get a LOE stating that it is the repayment amount which is displayed in my account? How I have to justify myself to in such situation.

Any experts, please advise. Thank you in Advance.

Regards,
Siju

Hello Friends,

I already received NOI from Ontario and was preparing docs for the submission.
But today's morning, I checked my EE profile and all my work experience has gone or erased.
What should I do now? If I add them again, will it make my profile ineligible?
Please help me out. I am little worried. If anyone has faced similar situation, kindly share your experience

Hello Experts,

I have got ITA on 12 July and now I am arranging required documents. I am wondering about my WES report as I have done M.Phil and WES report saying;
Canadian Equivalency Master's degree as
1) Bachelor of Commerce-2005 (Canadian equivalency 4-year degree)
2) Master of Commerce-2007 (Canadian equivalency Postgraduate diploma 1 year).
3) Master of Philosophy-2009 ( Canadian equivalency Master degree).
Will this affect my application after submitting my education certificates which are stating;
1) Bachelor degree - 3 years
2) Master degree - 2 years
3) M.Phill - 1 year

Please advise how to proceed with my application submission

Hi,

You can answer No and move on. If you answer yes, you will be asked to submit evidence of this relationship. It is only mandatory to declare all immediate family member (siblings and parents). So you don't have to declare other family members.

Hi,

It can be, but the average application will go from Background check status NA to In Progress 2 before you get the Passport request.

Hi,

Yes, this is fine. You will just need to mention the bachelors in your Personal history section (post-ITA), no ECA will be required.

All the best

Hi @TanakaM ,

I've question regarding uploading docs on CIC portal.

Case: I've a Gifts and Deeds notarized agreement with me which I want to declare along with Proof of Funds. I've Bank Certificates, Stamped and signed Bank Statement as well.

Question: Should I upload Gifts and deeds doc as part of LoE or should I upload it along with the Bank Certi and Statements. This is because there is only 1 placeholder for each category of uploads.

Also, my files are running more than 4MB. Can you suggest what options I have if not using online pdf compressors (I tried but none of them helped, really).

Awaiting your prompt response like always

Regards,
Ankit

If you're unable to compress your PDFs with free tools, buy a one month subscription to Adobe Acrobat Pro and use that. It'll cost your ~$25, but it doesn't get better than Acrobat for dealing with PDFs.

Ideally you would want all documents relating to POF to be uploaded together. However, it you fail to compress the documents (as advised above), you can upload them with your LOE.
