i probably have a stupid question just out of blue, but is it possible to apply for a pr using a paper form including express entry? thnks
I think there is some glitch in the system. Someone else also reported having this issue.baldev.asnanie said:Dear seniors,
Need your help with a particular concern that's bothering me since long. I submitted my final EE docs on 15th March, with abt 8 days to spare. In the docs upload page, on my desktop it simply showed Employment 1 and employment 2. So I uploaded the reference letters randomly. However, after submission and payments, I tried to check my submitted application on the phone. Here it shows the details of both my jobs, and I can see that I hv switched documents while uploading :'(
1. Would the visa officer take care in checking both the docs before making any false judgements? As in terms of accuracy of experience and NOC code?
2. How much time it normally takes for them to process the ePR application? Do they process and update each section sequentially or process everything at once and update after 5-6 months?
TanakaM said:They are fully aware that a number of people study part-time or via distance learning. So CIC accept's foreign work experience gained while studying.
For Canadian work experience, CIC specifically mentionS that "a period of employment during which the foreign national was engaged in full-time study is not to be included in calculating a period of work experience;"
However, there is no such requirement mentioned for foreign work experience.
Thanks againmadhouseontheshore said:Doesnt matter if you don't want to pursue career in that occupation. Just file your application with NOC that matches your most number of working years in recent past and make sure you can produce reference letters with the details of your experience that match closely the respective NOC JD. Just go with whatever your strongest points are in your EE profile. You can take a different profession once in Canada. Of course the advislce is not to decieve CIC but you can always make up your mind what to do once you've landed. I haven't heard from anyone that their NOC are matched with their Canadian experience when they apply for Canadian passport 4-5 years later on.
And btw you are not bound to accept a job offer from Job Bank. Nobody gets a job offer just by registreing with the job bank anyways. Most if he jobs posted there are actually losted elsewhere on other job portals and you need to actively apply before you can score an interview appointment. It is a failed tool and has been reduced to merely collecting few stats. Even CIC seems to be acknowledging this.
that's as per my understanding of the CIC mechanism. I hope someone senior will either correct me or confirm it. Before you submit your EE profile, wait till you get a second opinion.sfahadali said:Thanks again

Yes if you have sufficient funds in your bank then a bank statement will be sufficient.rmsb0079 said:Reposting this: - Would really appreciate a response for this
What are the documents to be submitted for proof of funds for people in India? Will a bank statement suffice?
Thanks very much in advance.
Thank you! I do have sufficient funds available. Just to confirm, the below info that comes up in the login is redundant?Maverick28 said:Yes if you have sufficient funds in your bank then a bank statement will be sufficient.

The immigration portal says "If you are applying for permanent residence in Canada, you must provide an official letter issued by your financial institution indicating your financial profile. This must:
* list of all your bank (chequing and savings) and investment accounts, the account numbers, dates each account was opened and the balance of each account over the past six months,
* list all outstanding debts, such as credit cards and loans,
* be printed on the letterhead of the financial institution, and include your name and the contact information of the financial institution (address, telephone number and e-mail address).""
