Hi,

Yes, the principle applicant must land first.
Yes, your wife can land on her own. You will need to do more research to find out what documents will be needed, if any.

All the best

Hi,

You will get points for a masters degree if your ECA confirms that it is equivalent to a Canadian masters (135 points).
Use this tool to see: https://applications.wes.org/ca/degree-equivalency-tool/

Hi everyone,

I have received my ITA and just uploaded all the needed information and paid the app fees. I realised that my score (405) was considerably less than what I read on many threads which has me worrying a little bit.

I had 2 questions:

1- provided I prove all I said was right in my application, is there a high chance of getting the PR as it is implied?

2- Is there going to be final in-person interview where the person's biased opinion could make it or break it?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

How did you get an ITA with a score of 405?

-Interviews are very rare, so you likely won't get called for one.

Hi,
How do we know which program we are qualified for when we submit the express entry profile?
I am asking because I have following FOREIGN experience:
1) 8 months same skill type
2) then gap for 2 months
3) 2.5 years same skill type

I read few posts on this forum and I am confused if I should have continuous work experience or not.

Hi,

1)The express entry profile will clearly show which class you qualify under.
2) Based on the experience you have , you may qualify under the FSWP. You only need 1 year of continuous experience. The rest can be comulative.

Hi TanakaM,
Thank you for your response. Sorry to ask follow up questions.
1) I don't know where to look in the Express entry profile for the program type :(. Can you advice where exactly I can find it?
2) Can I claim points for 3 years or just 2 years in this case?
FYI, I have already submitted the express entry application. I got points for 3 years of work exp and looks like the system ignored the gap. Does this mean its okay?
Your help is appreciated!

It's ok.
1) If you only have foreign work experience you will only qualify for under FSW.
2) Yes, this is correct, the gap doesn't matter. You have 3 years of experience.

Will personal history include your travel as well. eg...I am working with my employer from Feb 2016 to current. I had taken time off since I started when I went on holidays.for 2 weeks to Canada and then again 3 weeks to India...should I mention the holidays in this personal history section? or just in the travel history?

Hi,

1) Only put what you are claiming points for in the employment history. The rest goes into personal history where no references are required.
2) It's hard to say, you just have to find a way of fitting all the information in. If you dont have a P.O Box dont put anything.

regards
So does this mean , we only show the work history for the NOC we have applied under the rest we show in personal history?

No, it means we only show what we are claiming points for in employment history (This could be made up of multiple NOCs). The rest only goes into personal history where no evidence is required.

Hi,

Travel history does not go into personal history. So just mention you trips in travel history only.

All the best
