We were advised to get passport photography stamped with date and address of photographer, do we also need to scan this as well since there's only on place holder for digital photo?
No, you dont. That is required for the photos you send after PPR. For the ones you upload in PR application you dont need to write anything, just follow these instructions:

Frame size
  • The final frame size of the photo must be at least 35mm x 45mm.
  • The photographs must show a full front view of the head and tops of shoulders, with the face in the middle of the photograph.
  • The size of the head, from chin to crown, must be between 31mm and 36mm.
  • Digital dimensions are often expressed in pixels or DPI (dots per inch). The physical dimensions in pixels must be at least 420 x 540.
Quality/resolution
If an existing photo is being scanned, the minimum resolution must be 600 pixels per inch.
File format
  • The file may be submitted in JPEG or JPEG2000 format.
  • The final size of the image should ideally be 240 kB (kilobytes), but not less than 60 kB.
  • The image must be in colour (24 bits per pixel) in RGB colour space, which is the common output for most digital cameras.
All the best

Thanks bro for ur reply. So the second request shouldn't be addressed at the time of submitting e-APR. When do we need that by the way?After getting PR?

Correct. You will get it together with the Passport request (PPR) at the end of the application process.

I got nomination from OINP this week so my current CRS score is 1004 now.

But my wife’s IELTS expires on 11th July, 2017. So if we update her recent IETLS score our CRS score will be 1002.

So when should I update this IELTS result in express entry profile? Before the next draw or after the draw?

Please help me on this matter…

IMO, *ordered to leave* would be something like deportation. Like you did a crime, and you were asked to leave the country.

Update her recent IETLS score and get into the pool. Your scores are good enough to get an ITA in any draw.

Good luck.

Hi,
I have been residing in my current address for more than 20 years now but the duration mentioned is from June 2010 till date in the issued PCC.
The reason is that I provided the photocopy of my passport as my identification proof(issued in 2010) while applying for PCC.

Let me know if it could create any issue while submitting my application because in the application I have mentioned the duration of my stay in my current address from 1996 but in the PCC it is mentioned from June 2010 till date.

I agree. That letter is just informing you that your visa or permit has expired. It is not an order to leave because you can apply for another visa or permit and stay.

All the best

do we have to notarize the e-mail trails shown as proof? I have the ref letter without working hours. however, I've got the working hours stated in two letters signed by my colleague and supervisor which I've got notarized as well.

I have the emails from my HR department which states that it is against company policy to state the working hours on the company letter head. further, the HR manager has also mentioned the working hours in one of the mails. my question is can I just show the emails as it is, or do I have to get them notarized.

Hi,

I recently received an invite to apply and collating all required documents. I have questions w.r.t to experience letter of my past companies and current company. I do have experience, relieving and Job offer letter from my past company but those are dated as when I left the company and not the recent one. Would this work?

Secondly, I checked with my current company HR and they confirmed that they could provide a reference letter without having Job duties or hours per week or salary details mentioned on the same. It would just include the starting date, employee code, working address and it could be electronically generated through system and only valid for 1 month from the generation date?

Please suggest if it would work.
