When checking for Eligibility for express entry, one of the first questions that come up is: "In the last three years, how many years of skilled work experience do you have in Canada? It must have been full-time (or an equal amount in part time). (required) " Then the next question that comes...

Does IELTS need to be valid when you submit your profile (i.e. receive AOR) or does it need to be valid when you receive Invitation to Apply (ITA)? I thought IELTS only need to be valid when you submit your profile / receive AOR, and they are "locked" at that time. So even if it expires after...

I am a bit confused on this issue. I've been told that work while studying is not counted for Express Entry. However, I read the opposite on the CIC website: they explicitly mention that work experience while studying is counted, provided it's for FSWP, it's foreign work and meets the other...

Holy crap, is it really 30 freaking months??? Most people I know are getting it within 6 months. is 30 months the maximum time, or average time?

My Work Permit (Open Work Permit / Post-Graduate Work Permit) is valid till March 2024 - so 1 year 1 month more to do. I am wondering when can I extend the work permit? Obviously I cannot do it right away as I have more than 1 year to go, but I am wondering can I apply 3 months before it...

For the question that says "How much money will you be bringing to Canada", do I have to show my own money, or can I show my parents' money (with an authorization written that they are going to allow me to use it)? Also, I am currently residing in Canada with a job, so is it necessary that I...

Do you know where I can get one? So even if my score is below 20-30 marks below the cut off now, I still can submit and don't need to or shouldn't wait for the cut off to go down? Wow, so paystubs/tax statements aren't needed but only signed letter will do? Do you have any sample available...

1. My CRS Score comes at around 472 while the cut off is 490 now. Am I allowed to submit my profile now? or do I wait until it's above the cut off? 2. For the jobs I did in my home country, I don't have things like pay stubs or tax statements with me right now as I did them a while back. Will...

In question 3.5, it asks: "Have you ever been issued any of the following?" The options are "travel doc" and "PRTD". I'm currently on Work Permit and had a study permit before, and VISA before. Does VISA count as travel doc? Should I select that?

So has there been a FSW draw recently? What CRS score do they require? Is 480 a good CRS score?

Just to let people know, I got inside Canada day before yesterday. There was absolutely no problem at any point. In fact POE officers didn't even check anything -- they just saw my Passport and let me in. I did have to test for COVID, and luckily just got my result (in 2 days) - negative. So it...

I applied from Bangladesh and got my PPR in 10 days time. The average processing time for Bangladesh was 30 days, while it was at least 6 months in Canada in the CIC website. Hence I made the decision to apply from BD.

1. Based on this page -- -- my CRS score came out 483. Some people are saying it's too high and that I made some mistake. However I put everything correctly to the best of my knowledge. Could there be an error on the website? Just to let people know, I got 8 in IELTS general (R-9, L-8.5...

Thank you so much for responding. Yes I am double vaccinated (Pfizer) from Canada. I got the vaccine before coming to Bangladesh. I thought the ArriveCan is supposed to be done 72 hours before the flight and cannot be done any earlier? But as for my second question - if I delay it a few more...
