Dear All who are sending documents or already applied,

Please, clarify,

1. "Declaration of commitment " form should be only for principal applicant? or spouse copy should be sent?

2. Consent form "Schedule A" is only for principal application. No need for spouse right?

Thank you.

Hi! this is what I did:

1) both principal and spouse as written in the checklist
2) i no longer printed 3rd page for spouse since it's not applicable

Hope this helps.

Hi all,

Been reading through this thread, thanks for all the help and great info. I got an ITA for NBPNP, i am trying to put together my documents asap as I am running out of time and would appreciate any help. I have a few quick questions..

1.For the IELTS and my degree transcript, do I get the envelopes sent directly to NBPNP or is it OK if I get sealed envelopes sent to me then include them in my application? Who should these be addressed to??

2. In my work experience letter, I worked for 10 months at a particular salary then got a raise. should I include that my title and role was the same, and then salary 1 was xxx per annum and salary 2 xxxx per annum after raise, will that be fine? Wanna make sure I get everything in 1 shot.

3. Is a scanned copy of birth certificate fine? I was born in India

4. I am currently employed in NB on a work visa, do I need to include the net worth statement or proof of bank funds? I believe it is not required, correct? Will save me some hassle.

5. For the photos required in the application, do they have to be a particular size or format? is there a standardized form?

6. I have worked a few different jobs but I am claiming experience on only my main job from last year which was in the right NOC, I need to list all other jobs in the NBPNP application but I don't need references for them right? Many of them were while I was studying in University like research and teaching assistant, does this need to be included?

7. I have not filed any income tax returns in Canada yet (stupid of me but I saw that all mine were not mandatory, income tax is taken at source) so I don't think I have a notice of assessment, I have a T4. Is this a problem? I'm worried about this.

Thanks all

neilyong7, are you sure about Declaration of commitment?
In my opinion it should be filled by principal applicant and only signed by the spouse (on Signature of Witness place). I don't see how the spouse will fill that form when it ts crearly written: "Principal Applicant - Print Your Full Name" ?

However I accept other opinions ;) Anyone else?

it is written in the checklist
https://www.pxw1.snb.ca/snb7001/e/1000/CSS-FOL-NBPNP-020E.pdf


NBPNP-001 Declaration of Commitment Form
To be completed, dated and signed by the principal applicant and spouse or common-law partner.

Thanks, genuinelyjenny,
I saw it in the checklist but my concerns was caused by "Principal Applicant - Print Your Full Name" written below space for your name. However I found something in another theme in this forum so I will copy it here too.

Para sa lahat po ng nakatanggap ng ITA at para din po sa mga makakatanggap palang, gumawa po ako ng documentation process during the preparation ng application ko for my record and share ko na din po dito. I hope makatulong po ito and based po ito sa experience ko and hindi naman po mandatory na sundin niyo. Pasensya sa English ko in advance. :) :) :) Stapler at paper clips lang po ginamit ko to separate a group of documents lalo na sa passport copies kasi medyo madami po yan.


1. NBPNP-001 Declaration of Commitment Form
Print a separate form to be signed by your Spouse (if applicable). You can ask your friend, neighbor, etc. or your spouse can be your witness and you can be the witness to your spouse (got a confirmation of this from the applicant before me who phoned up NB for spouse as a witness)
Other applicants submitted the form notarized but I did not bother to do this since it is not mentioned in the checklist and application guide.

2. NBPNP-002 Consent Form of Skilled Worker Applicant
Print a separate form to be signed by your Spouse (if applicable). For my wife is just pages 1-2 since page 3 is for principal applicant only (others printed page 3 and noted N/A). You can ask your friend, neighbor, etc. or your spouse can be your witness and you can be the witness to your spouse (got a confirmation of this from the applicant before me who phoned up NB for spouse as a witness)
Other applicants submitted the form notarized but I did not bother to do this since it is not mentioned in the checklist and application guide.

3. NBPNP-DCEELMS Express Entry Labour Market Stream Information Form (other filename is NBPN-003-EELMS)
Make sure to note “N/A” if not applicable to you. Some fields are small, so what I did is filled up first all those fields that fit the needed information. Then I converted it back to pdf so all information I inputted will be permanent. Then I used pdf filler (mine I used nitro) to fill up the remaining fields and adjust the font in order for the information to fit.

4. NBPNP-007 Personal Net Worth Statement
I declared all assets (savings and time deposits) including real properties (just indicate an estimate if you sell the property now). Other applicants just declared an amount equivalent to the minimum requirement. However, since my goal is to migrate and settle in Canada, I declared everything that I have since I believe that the more assets the better especially if is unencumbered funds in order to show them that my family will not be a problem to their Province even if I don't get a job within 6 months or 1 year. Since I declared that I am willing to get a Canadian credentials in my EOI, I need to show that I can afford to pay even for a short course when I arrive. Also, even if I don't really use credit cards, I started using one just for this purpose to show them that I have a liability as I have read in the forums that an immigration officer asks if an applicant really doesn't have a liability even a credit card since most of the people now are fond of using it. (note that this is just applicable to me and not mandatory)

5. NBPNP-011 Fee Payment Form -- Skilled Workers
I submitted Demand Draft payable to Minister of Finance in the amount of CAD 250. You can ask your bank for further advice.

6. Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) Report for Degrees, Diplomas or Certificates Earned Outside Canada
This is mandatory that the evaluating body/agency will be the one to send a copy to NBPNP even if you have an original copy with you. In my case, I used WES and just paid via credit card online to be delivered directly to New Brunswick and attached the receipt in my application as an evidence of my request. Also, this is a little bit tricky here, in the checklist it did not mention anything about credentials to be submitted but in the application guide, it is mandatory to submit a copy of diplomas and transcripts along with the full application. Good thing I considered reading the application guide before submitting my application.

7. Canadian Educational Credential for Degrees, Diplomas or Certificates
If you have a Canadian Credentials then you need to include it, in my case it's not applicable.

8. Work Experience (principal applicant only)
Example format of my reference letters:

Company letterhead

Date



CERTIFICATE OF EMPLOYMENT


This is to certify that XXXXXXX has been employed by Company Name as ‘Designation' from date – date.
(Salary - xxxxxxx per year, Annual Ticket and Full Medical Insurance Cover, Working Hours per Week: 40 Hours)

Job Responsibilities:

Accountabilities: write a brief description about your knowledge and skills of the declared NOC.

• Job duties
• Job duties
• Job duties
• Job duties
• Job duties


The nature of our company is to provide (write a description about the nature of business of the company)

If you have any questions with regards to Mr/s/Ms. xxxx and his/her employment, please feel free to contact the undersigned at your convenience.


Yours Faithfully,



Name of line manager/HR manager
Designation
Email address
Company address
Mobile/Landline
company wesbsite


If you or your spouse had worked or currently working in Canada then you need to submit a reference letter and a copy of T4 and work permit.

For self-employed, in the forums they have declared business permit. (no further idea about this)

9. Arranged Employment (only for principal applicants with an offer of permanent, full-time employment from a Canadian employer)
Not applicable to me

10. Proof of Language Proficiency
It should be original for both principal and spouse (if applicable). If you don't have the original with you, you can ask for a copy from the testing agency or place a request to be sent directly to NBPNP. You need to show your ITA and the checklist to the testing agency as a proof in order to get a new original copy.

11. Travel Documents and Passports
All pages should be photocopied preferably in colored for all (principal, spouse and dependent/s). Also, if visas are stamped in the old passport, just photocopy the visa page only.

12. Identity and Civil Status Documents
In my case I submitted certified true copies of our live births and marriage certificate from NSO.
If annulled, marriage certificate with annotation from NSO along with the certificate of finality if available (I got this info from an applicant before me in the forum but please revalidate if applicable to you as I don't have a concrete info)

13. Children's Information
I submitted certified true copies of live birth from NSO
Submit this also “Declaration from Non-Accompanying Parent/Guardian for Minors Immigrating to Canada Form (IMM 5604)” if applicable to you.

14. Photo Requirements
This part is a little bit tricky as well. Do not follow the mentioned form in the checklist, staple the photos in a clean sheet of paper (not in group or top of each other) and staple the paper on top of NBPNP-DCEELMS, other filename is NBPNP-003-EELMS form.

15. Proof of Close Relationship in New Brunswick
Not applicable to me, all needed supporting documents to be attached are mentioned in the checklist and application guide.

Upon receipt po ng complete application niyo sa NB is makaka receive kayo ng AOR same day or the following day depende kong kailan nila ipapasok details mo sa database nila and kasama na sa AOR ang file number. So far, ang latest na nanominate ng NB is just 24 days upon AOR, for sure malinis ang documents nun at walang missing kaya mabilis. Kaya I suggest wag masyadong magmadaling magsubmit since may ITA na kayo and sure na dun ang nomination niyo, dun nlang magkakatalo sa processing ng documents at eligibility criteria kong pasok sa minium requirements upon assessment ng NB. Magtanong nlang kayo in advance sa courier niyo sa estimate kong ilang araw ang delivery para may idea kayo. Some example ng cause of rejections are lack of funds, license for regulated jobs, lack of points during assessment.

veeango,

Currently they accept only priority 1 or 2 candidates. So, yes, if you are not in one of both categories your EOI will not be accepted.
