Hi Friends,

Any suggestion why there hasn't been progress on an FWS-O application with AOR 20th June since medical passed 28th July and at IP1 since then (77days). Please weigh in for advise and opinion. Thanks
Hi my friend,

There is no set time, you just have to be patient. Its been less than 4 months so they are still well within the 6 months. You can order GCMS note, which will give you an idea of what's going on.

Hello all , please helpe with below enquiry its realy confusing for me :

I checked my eligibilty via Come to Canada tool and its shows i am eligible and give me a reference code with the help of that code i created my express entry profile and it displays 363 CRS score with FSW criteria met. But later on when i calculated my FSW score manualy i score only 65 FSW points.
How it is possible?
Below is the FSW score breakdown .

Ielts - 16 points Writing-6 , L-R-S - 6.5 each
Education - 21 points - Bachelor 3 years
Age - 12 points - 25 years
Experience - 11 points - 3 years
Adaptability - 5 points - Relative in canada
Total - 16+21+12++11+5 = 65

Thanks in advance.
Hi,

You actually have 67 points. Your IELTS gives you 18 points not 16.
W and L- CLB 7 (4*2) = 8
R and S - CLB 8 (5*2) = 10

Regards

Hi all

Is anyone confident regarding the timeline of work experience for express entry.

I started working in noc b category in oct 2016 and went backhome for 7 weeks in between.
Before this i worked for a month in noc b category (sep-oct2016) but at that time my work permit application was in process n i was on my study permit. M not sure if i can claim this experience too

Do we have tp count work experience exactly for 1 year or can i submit my express entry profile now?

I am getting many mixed opinions on this. Please guide me.

Thanks
Hi,

If this is Canadian experience you cant count the work you did on a study permit. As you need exactly 1 year, why dont you just wait until the end of this month so that you have more than 1 year of experience in your current job?

Hello All,

I would like to have clarification on the following issue which i am confused about:

I am a CPA (Canada) and got my professional degree through ACCA/CGA Mutual Recognition Agreement while outside of Canada.
Under Question 4 of the Comprehensive Ranking System 'what is your education level?' ( http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp ) do I fall under the category 'Master's degree, or professional degree needed to practice in a licensed profession' or not?

Does CIC accept CPA Canada in any category of education?

Thanks

Hey Guys, I have got few questions regarding POF.

1) Can I submit the financial documents of mine and my wife as both of us are working? I am the primary applicant, so is there any clause which says the POF should be on the name of primary applicant only.

2) I have 3 Fixed Deposits accounts in my home country which were created/opened 2 years, 1.5 years and 8 months back respectively. Do I need to explain from(source) where did I get this money? It includes my savings when I was working back in home country, money I trasnferred back home but most of it came from my Dad's bank account nomination when he passed away. Shall I explain this in LOE or just let it be as the money is sitting in the accounts from more than 8 months now?

3) Do we need to submit the Bank Letter for our accounts as I cannot fetch them from home country? So I am thinking of submitting the FD statements and Account details which I can get from online banking.

Hello ,
While submitting PR application, If you are uploading multiple documents in a single PDF for a given section. Say for educational docs I am planning to merge the following docs into a single PDF:
Btech OD
Btech consolidated marklist
btech individual marklist
WES ECA certificate
IELTS mark list

Now my question is , while merging should I include a separation page between each document mentioning the title of the document , or should i just merge all the docs without page separations.
Pls suggest.

Just merge all the pages. IRCC can figure out what the document is when they see it. Some people provide contents pages and indexes and title pages but, honestly, my advice is to just keep your application as simple as possible and submit only what is needed. The more you give IRCC, the more they'll have to read and go through and the more you'll delay your processing. The only documents needed for the educational section are the copy(ies) of your degree(s), notarized translation of your degrees if they're not in English, the ECA score report, and the IELTS score report. Don't think you need to upload marklists.

@Gesti
This is why you are ineligible. If I were you I would rewrite IELTS as a half a band improvement in L,S or W makes you eligible.
