I had given biometric for my visit visa last year, will it be valid for the express entry also or I have to give it again.
Express Entry Step by step instructions.
- Thread starter keerthiv
- Start date
Check the last paragraph out - "Permanent residence applicants"
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/campaigns/biometrics/facts.html
it is said that biometrics are valid for ten years. I don’t think you need to give your biometric again.
As for me I gave my biometric for work permit year ago and then Later applied for express entry they didn’t ask me to give it again.
Hi All,
I will appreciate if you can answer my below questions:
I have three jobs in total. Out of which only one job (current job) adds to my crs score. The previous two jobs doesn’t qualify to increase my crs score.
My question is “CAN I REMOVE THOSE TWO JOBS FROM EE PROFILE’s work history ”. If I remove these two jobs from the work history then where should I disclose these in my profile or application? Please advise ASAP.

Hello,
I would like to ask you guys about your opinion to apply for Express Entry.
I had my IELTS scheduled for 13th March 2020. But due to the corona outbreak, the exam was cancelled and I will receive a full refund. These days no one knows when it will be possible to sit a new exam. And that causes me worry - as my birthday is coming next week and I will turn 35, I am about to lose some CRS points.
Today I have read an official statement from IRCC:
"If you’re missing documents necessary for the completeness check because of disruptions related to the novel coronavirus (COVID 19), you can still submit your application.
Thanks

“Deadline for responding to an ITA
Upon receipt of an ITA, a candidate has 60 calendar days to do one of the following:
- Submit a complete application for permanent residence (APR) in their online account. This includes providing all supporting documentation up front.
-Decline the ITA in their online account”
As the CIC website states that there are 60 days to submit the application after receiving ITA but somehow mine is 90 days. Is it strange or because of Covid-19?

A query on adding education history while creating EE profile.
I have graduated in a 5 year integrated course with the degree, Master of Science (M.Sc). Its a direct M.Sc degree - so there is no dual degree or Bachelor's degree awarded separately. It is just a single degree certificate and a single period of study from 2009 to 2014.
I got the ECA done by WES and the report says, Bachelor's Degree and post graduate diploma (one year) for the single credential that I have.
When it comes to adding Education history while creating the the EE profile, how do I add this correctly and make sure I do not miss out on points?
Which of the following options should I follow? Option 1 (one entry) or 2 (two entries)
Or is there a different way in which I should add the education history? Please advice.

I have a question about foreign work experience for skills transferability,,,,,,whether it has to be in 1 NOC only or it can a combination of jobs in NOC 0 A or B to get full 50 points along with IELTS. I know minimum of 1 year is required in a particular NOC but about the 3 years for 50 points

You can remove it from your work history (now or after you receive ITA) and put it into personal history after you receive ITA. Or you can leave it in work history and, when submitting application, provide LOEs instead of reference letters, explaining that you do not claim any points for this experience. Both ways are equally fine. And if you researched a bit, you would find plenty of people who did either ways and recieved their PPRs.
You need to have at least one year of continuous work experience without any breaks in one NOC which you choose as so called primary NOC. The rest of experience can consist of one-two-three-whatever months in any other NOC from 0, A and B class. So yes, you can combine jobs in deferent NOCs to get more points for the experience itself and additional points for transferability.
Yes, they extended deadline for the application submission to 90 days instead of 60 due to COVID-19. What is more, if you can’t get some of the required documents even in this prolonged timeframe, you can submit LOEs instead of respective documents explaining that you need more time to get them. Therefore your case will not be rejected as incomplete, but will be put on hold instead until you provide them with the required documents.

The statement from IRCC you are referring to is about submission of application for permanent residency after you have been invited to apply. But you cannot create an Express Entry profile and therefore be invited to apply without results of language testing.First of all, your CRS is being calculated based on EXACT marks you got at your IELTS. Secondly, when creating an EE profile, you have to provide the test reports number and the date when the test was taken and the date when you received the results.
So no, you cannot create EE profile without passing IELTS or TEF first.
Please help me!
I have questions about how to approach the "work experience" section of express entry.
first some background:
I worked for 3 years in Texas (after 2 years of masters in LA) before moving to Toronto in late 2019. My company moved me via the Global Skills Strategy program of Canada and that offers me a 3 year closed work permit. My company, however, terminated my employment recently, in March (Canadian Exp: ~6 months).
I have thus decided to apply for express entry (is this the best way forward?)
1) I am not sure if they will provide me a letter of reference. However, I have a Canadian offer letter, pay stubs, and the fact that they moved me to Canada on global skills strategy. I worked with the same company for 2 years before moving here. What documents should suffice?
Should the American offer letter, Canadian offer letter, and my pay stubs be ok?
2)There are many employers who are "really interested" in me, but if I have a PR. What is my best bet to score sponsorship if my score is not enough to make it in the lottery?
