Hello guys, need your help.
I am into Graphic Design/ Advertising for the past 18 years. Owned am boutique design business with my wife as a partner from the last 8 years. I have business account in a bank, work portfolio to prove. My score is 73.
My question is - as I am a legal partner with my wife in business, will this count as Self Employed?
As per the CIC website, they said this process will take 2 years. Can I submit my papers for the self-employed visa process and PNP both together?

Dear all,

May I know if I need to submit any work of proof if I apply for NOC 5122, editors, like print-outs, handbills, leaflets etc if I m going to choose my application by online submission. 2) If I have 1.5 years of experience, can I submit the application, while accumulating my working experience up to 2 years half year later, thank you!!!!!!

Hi everyone,
I hope you are all safe. We are going to apply for this program in November under 5241 NOC.
My question is a bit sensitive...
So I had a company between 2014-2016. Now it is under liquidation. May the officer seek in the internet, make an investigation on our company. Has he/she got access the foreign goverment / tax office inside page?
The reason about the liquidation is quiet simple nothing harmful, nothing against the law, just I don't wan to make the officer suspicious about me... I thing it won't look good. I can explain for him/her but if he/she doesn't ask, don't want to be rejected.
Thank you very much in advance, if anybody has information about it.
Take care

We just got a letter saying: "We are pleased to inform you that you, your spouse and dependants can now receive free pre-arrival services funded by the Government of Canada. These services are available before you arrive and are meant to better prepare you for life in Canada." But the rest of the online info hasn't changed and still says "determining eligibility." Dare we hope??
Did you get an update after this?

I got the same letter last week and also waiting for anything/everything else.......
