I am filling out my application and need some help.
There is one area which says
"Please list all of your established ties in Ontario below (maximum 1000 characters):"
==> Do you have any friend/colleague/client with whom you worked with, is residing in Ontario? if Yes, then write their details.. name.. if possible PR Card number.. else you can mention one liner that there are no ties as such but please refer to attached letter of intent (rephrase this with more good words).. & make sure your Letter of Intent speaks about your intent to reside in there..
What should I write here, I haven't been to Canada nor do I have any relatives staying there.
Also, I left my job as a Product Manager in December and have been working on my own product and improving upon my skills. Do they check the current occupation ? Do I need to mention I am working as an Independent Consultant ?
==> First of all, you need to mention all your work history..
and need to submit supporting docs (ref letters) of work ex for which you are claiming points..
if this independent consultant is what you used to claim points.. then provide supporting docs..
& about checking occupation, they have their own ways of validating those...
