Thank you for your response. I agree, but while the application is still in the Express Entry queue, can we use that as Proof Of Funs without liquidating the funds? The liquidating can the occur later on in the process, when the applicant gets the relevant approval (sorry, I'm not conversant...

I have a few queries about the Proof Of Funds required for an Express Entry application. a) Do the funds have to be in a bank account or can they be invested in mutual funds and other financial instruments/insurance policies (not stocks)? Would statements from mutual funds and insurance...

Hi All, my brother did get points for "Two certificates or more".

To add to the above, the list linked to above lists "Post-undergraduate certificate" and "Postgraduate certificate" as two separate entries. What is the difference between the two? You still get the same CRS points for "Three-year or more certificate, diploma, or degree plus a...

Hi, We have just received the ECA from WES with regards to the "Diploma in Business Management" from NMIMS. It has been given the Canadian Equivalency of "Undergraduate certificate (one year)". That is in addition to the Bachelors of Engineering that my brother already held, which is given...

My brother has got three years of electrical, electronic and controls engineering work experience, and a bachelors degree in that field. Does he need to re-qualify in those fields in Canada? If so, what is the process?

Thank you.

Not senior. The approximate equivalent of a parish priest (currently responsible for the spiritual needs of a small community of about 50 people forming a specific parish). Well, it broadly is. The idea is for him to move to Canada and continue to work in that field (of spiritual and liturgical...

Is there a pathway for a person who is an ordained member of the clergy to move to and settle in Canada? The person in question is currently a practising priest, but past the age of retirement in most countries (70). He would be accompanied by his wife, but no other dependants. I understand...

General questions a) Are Canadian bank debit cards generally chip-and-pin enabled? Or are they chip-and-signature? Or are they magnetic-stripe and signature? b) Are Canadian bank debit cards contactless? If yes, what is the daily and per-transaction limit on contactless transactions? c) Can...

I am not sure that you will be a resident Indian in India. When you acquired your Canadian citizenship, your Indian citizenship will have automatically terminated, by operation of Indian law. Therefore you would be a foreigner in India, even assuming that you have applied for and acquired OCI...

Perhaps I have been too conditioned to UK requirements. The CIC website states that one needs to have been resident in Canada for at least 1095 days (3 years) of the five years immediatly preceding the date of the citizenship application. The UK requires the applicant to have been physically...

We were working on the assumption of about a year apart. Can you clarify what a TRV is, in this context? As the CIC website spoke of sponsoring your spouse, I assumed that the spousal visa does not automatically lead to PR status. In the meanwhile, from another link in the forums, I found this...

Bumping up this thread for advice.

"If his evaluation comes with three year degree + one year post graduate program then only he will be eligible to claim points fro two and more degree." And that is what I have my doubts on. I think a one year (plain) diploma may be sufficient for the extra points for Express Entry. The wording...

Just to clarify, does the score drop on the birthday or on the anniversary of the day the EE profile was created? I was advised that it is the latter.

My Express Entry brother, who is married, is looking at the pros and cons of coming to Canada unaccompanied by his spouse in the short-term. The reason for that is that his points jump up significantly if he is married, but not accompanied by his spouse. The questions that follow in this...

Hi, My brother, who has applied under the Express Entry scheme, has successfully completed the NMIMS diploma in Business Management by distance learning. When going through the WES assessment, we (I am assisting him with the form filling and documentation side of things) had a few questions...

Wow, that is a really fast response. Thank you.

This is a slightly unusual question, but I was only just notified that my Canadian Permanent Resident status is still valid, in spite of not having been resident in Canada since 2010. I know my Canadian PR status is valid because when I applied for an ETA to visit Canada, I was denied because...
