I have question: I do understand why the photocopy should be certified by notary office for the paper based application.
but for electronic submission - do we still need certified photocopies by notary or it is enough that the certified translator will put the signature and stamp for photocopy - and I will scan this color photocopy with his stamp and signature??

thank you!

Hello people,

Need your help/advice/suggestion.

is there a thread in this forum that someone can point me to, that will provide a step-by-step instructions of how to apply for Express Entry process(in order).
If here is no thread of that can, could someone who has in-depth understanding of the process, kindly create one and put it as sticky?

I am bit confused as to what would be the first step in applying for the EE and its corresponding steps.
Though website provide instructions to certain extent, i am not entirely convinced as i understand there is lot more required than what is mentioned on the website.

These instruction will be helpful not just to me but many aspirants who are seeking a lucid understanding of the process.

Thank you all for your time. :)
We have same thoughts here

My understanding is that CIC matches job duties and responsibilities to the NOC code (not the job title). My sister applied with Marketing Manager, and Marketing Executive both against 0124. Titles vary from company to company and are inflated in various industries like banking where every 3rd person is a assistant vice president.
You can change your NOC post ITA in your eAPR. No need to mention this in your LOE. LOE is for covering things in your application eAPR that hasn't been covered elsewhere or situation that you need to provide an explanation.
0 to A is not problematic in my opinion. NOC Class 0,A,B,C,D etc. are used as a filtering criteria in my opinion. For Example Class C and D may be a cook or a mason and not allowed under EE.
This is of course my opinion only I am not an immigration lawyer, others can comment.
Thank you! I am just wondering if I can still provide an LOE to make sure there is no problem. Since there will be a difference between my pre-ITA and post-ITA applications, isn't it safer to explain it in an LOE?

Yes, and its not a point to worry. The translators usually get it notarized themselves.

Hello @mr.preetsingh and other members...
I need some advice on following matter...
My officer has issued me reference letter without explicitly detailing my duties, but it mentions that I'm performing duties and responsibilities as "my designation" under "my controlling office name & address". And my deptt. has a published manual that details duties of "my designation". Now if I support such reference letter with such manual explicitly detailing duties for "my designation", Will this be sufficient?
Pls advise. I'll be really grateful.

Well, I submitted my application on 8th May and today, 16th May, the application was updated. My UCI number from previous work permit has been allotted. However, my medical reports AND Background check is under review. I have read that the BG check doesn't start unless Medical exam has been cleared. Any thoughts on this?
Hi Chitre Raunak,

small question for you - have you uploaded your work permit with your application submitted.
as it wasn't stated there I forgot to do it.
Should I upload it through CSE?
I was answered by one member of the forum - that I don't need, but I still afraid.

PS. Hows your medical doing by today? passed?

thank you!

Hello!
I'm not sure I'm posting my question to the right topic section, but I hope someone could help me:)
If the person has completed preparatory program (foundation) for undergraduate studeis (program lasted for a year), and if he/she also has a bachelor degree (4 years of studies), is it "Two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees" or is it just "Bachelor's degree" option?
Thank you!

Hi.

I have a question about uploading documents for Education post ITA. In the profile where the checklist shows the list of documents to be uploaded it says to upload your Diploma or Degree certificates and has no mention of transcripts or marksheets. Will uploading only degree alongwith the ECA copy suffice? I can upload marksheets but dont have a copy of transcripts as they were sent directly from my university to WES. But my understanding says only degree certificate will do along with ECA. Any suggestions?

TIA

Upload Marksheets+Degree+ECA report in this order only. Start from Highest degree to lowest ECA report at the end of pdf file.
