And see your final score.

If you have more than 430-440 go ahead ..

If you have less than 420, you may try finding a job first of apply through PNP, which is a separate stream.

Hi Just wanted to know do we need to upload the original birth certificate also along with the English translation one? I am just loosing my sleep over the fact that I have review required for sibling document and was wondering if this could the reason? I have submitted English translated copy of the birth certificate which is notarized from India , but I dint attach the original birth certificate which was in Hindi.

Also do you guys think that birth certificate is enough to prove the sibling relation or should I also submit the passport copy of my sister at this point of time !!. I know @canasha you said that if I can provide with any other better document I should, but if I haven't been asked for any ADR should I still submit it now. I will complete my 6 months soon on December 6th and the last time I spoke to the CIC agent he said that my eligibility is still under review and security hasn't started. Thanks

I think you should upload the original birth certificate and your siblings passport or identification document just as you have suggested.
Even if it's not needed eventually it'll give you some peace of mind while you wait for a decision.

Just hanged up the phone with the IRCC. Eligibility,criminality and medical passed. They are working on the security side of things and the application is going smoothly. It should be done by the 6 month window. Aor 4 of June. Question please, does that mean ss or not?

About the original certificate, yes the original needs to be uploaded too. This is said in the official website.

Translation of documents
If a supporting document is in a language other than English or French, the applicant must provide IRCC with a copy of the original document as well as a version translated by a certified translator.

If a supporting document is in a language other than English or French, the applicant must provide IRCC with:

  • the English or French translation; and
  • an affidavit from the person who completed the translations; and
  • a certified photocopy of the original document.
The instruction guide for Express Entry candidates and applicants explains how to meet these requirements.

IMHO, any document which supports your case should be uploaded.
Once i read somewhere, in the blogs/forums, when i was learning about the process, 'Chances of an application being rejected because of a lot of documents uploaded is none. On the contrary it may happen that if a certain document is missed, you may be asked for it.'

Even i have uploaded as many as i could which supported the case, including my Original Birth Certificate and a Notarised English Translation.

However for my case, it was not required, but i did't take chances, had asked someone (a friend of friend) who got a PPR, he said he had uploaded it, so I thought of doing the same.
