    Civil Engineering job prospects in Canada with UK qualifications

    Hello everyone! OP here, just wanted to give a little bit of context, that way answers can be a little more relevant. It would be helpful to get answers from someone who is working/has worked in the civil engineering/construction industry in Canada with foreign qualifications. I just received...

    OINP/ Ontario PNP sent in Jan 2016, Lets connect Here

    Yes, that is correct. After you receive and accept your nomination, you will receive 600 points on EE. For CIC PR application, I believe you will be applying under PNP and I think you will have to complete and submit one additional form confirming your intention to reside in the province of your...

    To be on the safe side, I would inform them via email (make sure you keep a record of this email correspondence just in case). There is no harm from your side if you decide inform them. And if the case is that you didn't have to notify them, you wouldn't have lost anything. Good luck!

    Purolator is Canada-based. When they ship internationally, they partner with UPS. So if you do not live in Canada, one should be receiving their package back from UPS. Hope this helps!

    So sorry to hear about your situation! I think I read, recently, somewhere in the forum, someone also had their package returned due to "missing passport pages" (which, according to the applicant, he/she included). So this person actually went to OINP office and argued his/her case with a...

    OINP Application sent in November 2015

    But also, keep in mind that the January thread is mainly for the Human Capital Streams. Whereas, the 1800 apps that OINP received in Jan consists of all streams (Investor, Human Capital, Employer-based, Master's & PhD, etc.) that they had open at that time.

    OINP Application sent in November 2015

    I agree. For example, we paid around $200 for IELTS and they said that we will receive our scores in about 2 weeks from the day we took our exam (which, in my case, they have fulfilled their commitment). As a person who paid and took the exam, how would one feel if the British Council were to...

    If you are doing a short landing, you can leave Canada without your PR card. However, you will have to provide a Canadian address where they can mail it to you. If you have a family member or a very close friend who you can trust, you can provide immigration with their address and once they...

    Landing Question - no direct flight

    Very true. That is why airports have different terminals for domestic flights and international flights. Terminals for international flight arrivals have to go through immigration counters (mandatory). From Toronto to SK is a domestic flight and you will not go through immigration counters...

    I do not anticipate any problems. People do "short landing" all the time, where they land in Canada for a few days to a few weeks just to finalize their PR and obtain their PR card. In terms of returning to the US, it will all depend on your status. If you are still employed by a US company and...

    Nope, no problem. You can send as many applications as you need, you'll just be charged their processing fee for each one of them. Good luck!

    Yes, it is possible, depending on the bank. I was once given a foreign DD, which I successfully cashed 2 years after it was issued.
