Hi,

Is it possible for me to use a non-canadian debit card to order my GCMS notes through the official CIC link. I will provide my friend's address and phone number, but use my own debit card (from UK) and my own email address. Does the billing address and contact address have to match?

I would like to ask you guys that what if someone has 425 points but doesn't have any work experience... can he accepted into the pool?

I checked and the main requirement is to be eligible under one of the three categories, without work experience, non of them matches me, right? (I am in Canada with study permit)

Unfortunately, without any work experience, you cannot apply for express entry.

No worries, I used a non-Canadian credit card with my name and email address to order GCMS notes but listed my Canadian relative's details.

Congrats on your ITA. NOC should be selected on the basis of the match of actual duties and responsibilities carried out by you rather than the designation/title match in the NOC list. You need not match the duties and responsibilities word by word, but the idea is to have the closest match in terms of the spirit of the duties and responsibilities (at least 60%-70% match).

If you have found an NOC where the duties and responsibilities are the same as what you worked (in your home country), then go for that NOC, even if the Canadian designation/title does not match. However, in your application still mention the designation as per your reference letter/experience letter.

hello all..
I have few queries...
1. I have done my post graduation from private university (Suresh Gyan Vihar University, Jaipur) affiliated by UGC-AICTE. Will WES evaluate my credential of private university? as i have seen on WES website ,they evaluate credentials of only those universities which are graded 'A' by NAAC. My university is not graded by NAAC. Should i send my transcript to WES?
2. I have done Bachlor and post graduaion from 2 different universities. For credential evaluation through WES...two separate transcript envelopes will be available to me from each university. Can single primary applicant send two transcripts for credential evaluation?

1. With spouse as non-accompanying, my score is 471
2. With spouse as accompanying it reduces to 449 (there are chances that i receive PT nomination with 449, but currently they are on halt as well)

Secondly if family sponsorship takes long time (CIC website says 28 months), is there any other way through which my family stays with me while their PR is in process??
As long as your wife and children are listed on your application as non-accompanying, and have had the required medical and police checks, you can sponsor them later.
The timeline to process spouse and children applications from Pakistan is very long. However, you can help speed up the processing if you have a complete application with a lot of evidence that your relationship is genuine. This will probably mean your wife will not need an interview, which saves a lot of processing time.

My university is not graded by NAAC. Should i send my transcript to WES? - Yes, still you can send it. I have heard of cases where WES has assessed educational credentials even though the institution was not listed on their website. Meanwhile, did you try this tool using which you can check the Canadian equivalence of your degree http://www.wes.org/ca/evaluations/preliminary.asp.
2. I have done Bachlor and post graduaion from 2 different universities. For credential evaluation through WES...two separate transcript envelopes will be available to me from each university. Can single primary applicant send two transcripts for credential evaluation? - Yes, please ensure to mention the reference number on all envelopes.

Guys I have a question with regards to Personal History that is sent post ITA.

I have 3 jobs as of now, all in the same NOC.

1. Job 1 - 1 year 3 months - Employer said No to JD
2. Job 2 - 3 years 11 months - JD Present
3. Job 3 - Current (close to 1 year) - JD present

For EE points I only need to show my second job really. Can I put the rest of it in my personal history? I of-course can provide proofs of employment, salary etc. Any thoughts?

It seems that ontario along side other provinces (not so sure) has a temporary pause on sending nominations, therefore it can be said that CRS can come down to 465 (my score) or 450 (atleast) within next 2 to 3 draws????

Please correct me if I am wrong

Hi All,

Is there any chance for people with 400 score for OINP in the future. I haven't created EE account as yet. So should I even try?
Regards.
