If an applicant's EE application was rejected due to eligibility issue, but his security and criminality, etc... are all good, then he re-applied, will the 2nd application be processed much faster? I guess IRCC doesn't need to do the info sharing, security and criminality review once again, is...

I would like to claim my foreign work exp to get the 50 extra points in my CEC application, but 1. I took 1 month break between jobs 2. they are not in the same NOC code as my current position in Canada (which is used in my CEC application). I am wondering if this is OK. Will I be able to...

Today is July 1st and I found that the EE system just added 13 points to my profile because I just hitted the 2 year milestone of working. However, that is true only when it is accurate to the month. If it is to the day, I am still 2.5 months short to have 2 year work exp. That means, if I am...

The quotas are 80k+ not only for 2022 but also the next 2 years, but apparently only a small portion of them cannot be consumed. At this pace, only 20K invitations will be issued per year, what about the rest 60k or even 70k? Any thoughts?

There is a field in EE profile called "Intended location of employment in Canada". I am wondering how to fill it in the case of working from home. My company got rid of its office after the covid breakout, which is very normal in the industry. I guess currently my company's registered office...

One of the companies where I worked at before coming to Canada has gone bankrupt. I got my former supervisor written a work experience letter for me, but it is not under the company's header, and the company's contact info is no longer valid, though my supervisor's personal contact info is on...

IRCC's website says the processing time is 22 months, which is scary... This is for EE-based PNP applications, not for paper based.. And this is for the federal stage only. Not sure if this is accurate, because the website may not get updated timely. Can anyone please confirm it? Thanks!

In "Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Mandate Letter" (https://pm.gc.ca/en/mandate-letters/2021/12/16/minister-immigration-refugees-and-citizenship-mandate-letter), there is a bullet point: "Expand pathways to Permanent Residence for international students and temporary foreign...

2022's CEC and FSW quota is 55000, 2023's is 75000. In total it is 130000. Now the backlog for EE is 80000 according to https://www.cicnews.com/2022/01/canadas-immigration-backlog-now-over-1-8-million-applications-0120775.html#gs.p4ngi5. This number is sufficient for the next 1 year plus 4...

Since CEC has been suspended indefinitely, I am looking into PNP. I am working full time as a coder in Toronto, but the problem is that my company doesn't have an office in the province. Everyone is working from home now, especially in the IT industry. But OINP has this requirement. So I am...

Bacially, the huge number of invitations in 2021 exhausted the quotas of 2022. They may resume FSW and CEC at the end of 2022 to prepare for 2023, and CRS will take 6 months to drop below 500, and another 9 - 12 months to drop below 470. For ppl who have a CRS of 460-470, they should be...

For example, if a PR applicant is invited in 2021 but approved in 2022, should this person be included in 2021's quotas or 2022's? Now there are more than 110K EE apps in backlog, if the answer to the question is 2022, then there would not be one single draw in this whole year, cuz EE's annual...

Since all streams of EE have been suspended except PNP, I am considering OINP Tech draw. However, my CRS is 500+ if I include my abroad work exp, which seems too high for OINP Tech draw. This stream not only has a minimun CRS, but also a maximum limit, which is around 460 - 470. I guess I...

No warning beforehand, no explanation afterward, no prediction for the future, it just stopped, for 4 months by now. 10 months ago even applicants with 60+ CRS were invited, now even those with a 500+ score have to leave the country due to expired work permits. This is not how TRs should be...

Based on report https://www.cicnews.com/2021/09/express-entry-canada-holds-first-cec-draw-of-september-0919053.html#gs.bf0ybu, IRCC has already achieved the EE goal of 2021, which is to invite 108500 applicants. I am wondering what will happen next? Will EE stop drawing until next year? Thanks!

I am a little confused by the description on CIC website. It says: "For any other country, the police certificate must be issued after the last time you stayed there for 6 months or more in a row." It sounds like you have to leave the country first, then go back to it just for the certificate...
