Express Entry Step by step instructions.

[samchop86]

Is there any option to save my application half filled up and continue another time while I apply for PR through Express Entry online? Or I have to complete the whole application with all required docs at once?

You can fill/save/edit your application 'n' number of times before submitting it and making the payment.
Good Luck

How long it takes to process PR? 6 months?

There is no exact answer to this question. All varies from case to case. 6 months is maximum time frame which IRCC targets to process an application, but it can exceed that too i some cases.
These days FSWO stream is being processed in about 60 days (fastest), PNP is the slowest these days.

Please guys need some help with POF...
If i get funds from my father as tfr in my a/c then i get a fd in my name (backed by gift deed) . Now is there any requirement of avg balance in my bank a/c? OR Will fd be considered as part of bank balance and will be sufficient as POF combined with bank balance? Thanks..

Hi,

1) That is the truth, so how would you be breaking the law? The master's degree is not considered as you are yet to complete it.
2) That only applies to Canadian work experience, so don't worry. Skilled, foreign work experience gained while studying is perfectly acceptable. They will know you were studying at the time through your academic history.
3) Put your current salary.

All the best

Thanks man! I really appreciate your answer.
Just for clarification:
1. How about when I finish my master's education? is it ok then too? (Because it would take a long time for me to get my official degree and transcripts)
2. Are you sure? because I've heard this one from a registered immigration consultant working in Canada. If that is the case, It's AWESOME!
3. Could you please clarify the thing about academic history? because I haven't seen the actual forms in the EE registration portal. You mean I could tell them I have a master's education, that I have recently graduated from (but don't have the official degree and transcript yet), but here is my bachelor's with its assessments, translation, etc and some related work experience?

Thanks again
Good Luck.

1) Yes, in your EE profile you put whatever you want to claim points for, i.e what you have an ECA for. So if that is just your bachelors then that's all you need to mention. You will then enter your masters in the personal history section (post-ITA ).
2) Yes, I am sure. As long as it was skilled, paid and not part of the degree.
3) Yes, read answer 1 above. In addition, your work experience doesn't have to be related to your education. Eg you can have a history degree and experience in software development. This is perfectly fine.

Regards

Thank you so much, man!
Well, I guess this depends on the rules for the specific NOC. Mine (Translation) does say that you should have academic education in this field. (although there are other ways to it too). So now I can get the full points for my foreign skilled work experience! (3years or more)

So to iterate; for example, one of my friends who has just completed her master's degree could use her work experience from 3 years ago up until now, regardless of her graduation date. (and it wouldn't count as being only part time) correct?

You're a life saver!

Hello to everyone.

I lived in Dubai from 2010 till 2015 and I received my PCC from there before I leave UAE. so can I use this UAE PCC which was issued in 2015 or I have to get a new one after receiving ITA ? (I have not been to Dubai after 2015).

Thanks a lot in advance.

You will need a new PCC from UAE.
IRCC clearly states " if you have lived abroad in the past, the police certificate must be issued after you last lived in that country or territory."

Good Luck !!

Thank you very much for your quick response, I received my PCC of UAE, few days after leaving the country but it was issued in 2015. besides that, I did not travel to UAE after issuance of my PCC . so can I use my PCC issued in 2015 or I have to get a new one with the current date?

In your previous post, you mentioned "I received my PCC from there before I leave UAE".
In case, you obtained your PCC after leaving that country, you don't need a new one. Just take a look on the PCC issuance date, it should be after the exit stamp date on your passport.
And if you have not visited UAE after that, you are good to go with the same PCC, you don't need a new one.

Good Luck
