    POF Discrepency

    Hi all, thanks for taking the time to view this. I just received my ITA (July 10th) and went through my application previously submitted. It appears that I inputed $72,000 in the section for POF (72000 is my employment base salary) instead of the intended $12,000. I thought I changed it from...

    Can someone please confirm that I'm not being a complete idiot

    Thank you Shakshaka, It appears that with two bachelors, I should've selected "two or more..." a long time ago. Now its to time to kick my own butt for missing out on the April draw.

    Can someone please confirm that I'm not being a complete idiot

    Thank you, I'm having a serious brain-absent moment. I have 2 bachelor degrees from University of Calgary, acquired through a 5 year "combined" program. I physically hold 2 degrees (BCom + BA). I was under the impression that: "Two or more post-secondary program credentials AND at least one of...

    Education Points - Combined Degrees (2 Bachelors)

    Hi everyone, I graduated from a "combined degree" which was essentially a program that allowed me to get 2 bachelor degrees by studying one extra year (5 years instead of 4). I now have 2 Bachelor Degrees from UofC (1 BCom and 1 BA). I was wondering if I can claim that under the Education...

    Other Name Documentation...

    Hi all, I've used an alias as my first name (same last name as passport) since my given first name is very long and tough to pronounce. In the intake documents checklist website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp#document_checklist) it indicates that...

    Does POF mean Positive Net Worth?

    Since CIC is requesting the "financial profile", I was wondering what exactly do they need to know/verify? I have the required funds in my chequing/savings account as well in mutual fund investments, but I also have a line of credit, MasterCard, Loans, etc. Does the minimum requirement need to...

    Employment Start Date vs PGWP Issue Date

    Hi everyone, Quick question in regards to filling out EE. Under the work history, it asks the Start Date of your employment and I've put in my start date, which was June 1st 2013. I did not receive my PGWP until Nov 15th 2013, so I was working under my Student Work Permit till Nov. 15th 2013...

    I got 600 points in a sudden this morning-PGWP holder

    Found out where Jasonsmart screwed up and why you should say "No" to the Job Offer even if you're working on PGWP. Second to last question if you answer "Yes" to Job Offer: Four digit NOC code of current work permit Which of course PGWP holders do NOT have any NOC codes on their work permit...

    I got 600 points in a sudden this morning-PGWP holder

    This is a really important question. I vaguely remember we were told to select "No" for this question: Does <Candidate> have a job offer in Canada? I selected No even though I'm working full time permanent basis because I don't have positive LMIA (PGWP LMIA Exempt). Should we answer YES to...

    The Harsh Reality About Express Entry - Let's Debate Here

    There's been so much speculation and panic on this forum and unfortunately much like most of you I've been sucked into it. But this is coming straight from the horse's mouth (CIC) as part of their technical briefing in December: https://instaud.io/4dB#18:38.0 "People with nominations and job...

    Those with ITA - Can you share what CIC is requesting?

    Thanks Arijit, By reference letters from past employers, are you referring to those that we've included in the EE Profile? I've worked quite a few random jobs during school that I haven't mentioned in the EE profile because they don't matter (not qualified) but I'm sure that I have to mention...

    Those with ITA - Can you share what CIC is requesting?

    Hi, Firstly, congrats on your ITA you lucky bums! We're definitely jealous. Despite the gloomy atmosphere of the forum for applicants like myself (400-600 range), I wanted to get a bit proactive in advance of a possible ITA in the coming months. So I thought I'd ask you ITA holders a favour...

    If ITA is received, do you get to choose which stream to apply under?

    My current EE profile states that I meet the criteria for both CEC and FSW. If I receive ITA, do I get to choose which stream to apply under or does the system automatically choose it for me? I'd rather apply under CEC to be honest, since I'm more familiar with it. Any thoughts?

    CELPIP Certificate Number

    Does anyone know what CIC means by "CELPIP Certificate Number"? There's no such thing on the actual CELPIP report, so I just wrote down the "Registration Number". Is that the same thing? And one last question. Under "Family" Section, it asks for my available funds to bring to Canada. I'm under...
