I have few USD notes amounting to about 150 USD. This was obviously not banked. I'm hoping to open a USD account and bank it which I'll be also using as a part of the pof. Since it's a small amount do I have to show the source? How should I go about it

Dear Experts,
I used to apply for EE profile, and of course having EE number, but I have deleted it.
Now, I am opening the new one in which there is a field required my previous EE number and Unique Client Identifier (UCI).
In fact, I have no idea about UCI and where I am able to find it out.
Pls advise if it is mandatory
Thanks
Hello everyone..could you please look st it with favorable comments?

Question about Short Landing. People have done it, and I have not seen any unlucky ones, but you never know. I need help from "experienced" people to comment/advise.

Lets say short landing planned is for 2 days and I have a Canadian address of a Friend where things can be mailed. My current Country of residence is USA.

1) Is it legal to do short landing ? ( e.g. Land Sunday, apply for SIN Monday and fly out evening)
2) When given the airline form Is there an item asking your duration of stay? If yes, is mentioning 2 days ok?
3) Is there any other form where duration of stay is asked?
4) When asked by Immigration officer about duration of current stay, is it advised to tell the truth"? I am here for 2 days, need to go back to USA to wrap up things and plan to be back in couple of months.
5) In addition to 4, can Immigration officer deny the PR to be mailed to friends address as a consequence of Short landing?
6) Is it legal for my relative/friend to post my PR card via fedex to me?


Thanks.

Well, they want to know that the funds are not borrowed funds. I would need more detail on your specific case for me to help. You can PM me.

Hi Tanaka,

For proof of Work Experience Document, it has been mentioned -

"should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits"

Let's say I've been working in a company for 8+ years. But I just want my last 6 years of experience to be considered for the application. It is because I was transferred to a separate department 6 years back with very different job description since then and my new roles suits the NOC code I am applying under. FYI, I've added only this 6 years experience in the work history section of e-APR. Now, in the Work Experience Document, should i include only last 6 years information OR all the information since I joined this company 8 years back?

By the way, what do they want to know by "job status" ? Job Status can be Permanent, Contractual or Internship ,rigth? OR is it something else?

Thanks

Thanks a lot for your reply, i dont see any point which would make it appear that the funds are borrowed as they have been in my own account for more then six months(i.e, indian bank account) its just that the account is not in a canadian bank

No, you wont need to show the source. Why don't you convert it into your currency and deposit it into the account with the rest of your funds?

Hi,

You wont have a UCI number unless your PR application was actually processed. So if you had only created a profile you must answer No to the question that asks if you have ever applied for PR.

I hope that helps.

Hi,

It is ok to show funds in the Indian bank account. However, i do not think you need to show POF since you are currently working in Canada.

Read this and do more research:

"As well, you do not need to show these funds if you are currently authorized to work in Canada and have a valid job offer."

All the best

Hi,
It should mention when you joined the company but only give details of the years you are claiming points for.

For example, your letter can be as follows:

xyz has been a permanent, full-time employee of abc Ltd since 03 January 2009, working 40 hrs per week. He currently holds the following position:

XYZ Manager - January 2011 - Current
Salary:
Benefits:
Direct superior:

List of duties
-
-
-
-
-
-
-

Name:
Signature:
Title:

(This is just a sample, add what you want to make it look better.)


2) Status wants to know whether this is your current job or you have changed roles or left the company.

Hope that helps.

Regards

I think you read the wrong response, the one you replied to was for someone else.

Read this one: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/express-entry-step-by-step-instructions.273928/page-785#post-6081279

Thanks a lot. Yes that's what I also thought. Since I'll be showing an FD which I created with the gift that I got from my mother. I'll be creating another FD with this small amount and showing both as POF. Should be OK right? Do I have to state anything in the LOE?

Yap, should be fine. The amount is insignificant.

All the best.

Guys, should we sign and scan the LOE? Or just write name and date at the end? Actually, it is an electronic application where we confirm everything we submit is true.
