Yes! I got a 2015 Accord (and got PR in April ish)

Nah, they don't really care as long as the experience you are claiming points for is valid

I'm not sure what the IEC requirements are, but for tax purposes: You only need to charge HST if your freelance income (not overall income, just freelance) is more than $30,000 annually. If that's the case, you'd need to set up a business account with the CRA. For income taxes, I set aside 30%...

I have no experience with Alberta but in the Ontario program they just send you a letter that supports your application for a work permit if your existing one expires. It shouldn't have an effect on your existing permit!

That should be enough. I'd personally still include a letter of explanation saying that the company has shut down and so may not be available to contact, but that might be overdoing it and might raise a red flag. Wait till some else comments!

There's two sections you can use. The work experience section is used for any work experience for which you're claiming points. In your case, that's the year in Canada. That is the only experience you need to prove, because it's in that section. Your Indian work experience should be mentioned...

They don't really look at whose name is on the credit card so anyone can pay it to be honest. Ontario wants your employer to pay it because the employer is technically the entity who needs a new worker.

I ended up applying through Express Entry, sorry!

A couple of hours to a day if you do it online!

I can't help with the more complex aspects of this post, but I can say that you should update your profile. You should still be above the cutoff score for a future draw (do some research into that). You don't need to inform IRCC if you get a new job while on an open work permit like IRCC. If...

Job offers received while on PGWPs that don't have LMIAs can't be used to get the "Valid Job Offer" extra CRS points. However, work experience while on a PGWP (or any open work permit) can be used to get points for "Canadian Work Experience", even if there isn't an LMIA. Basically, the only...

Various guides on CIC's website (see links below) mention annulled marriage as a type of marriage separate to Single. While I don't see anything specific to CEC or Express Entry, it looks to me like they consider it a type of marital status. I would ask to be sure...

You don't want to provide more information than needed. Making your case file unnecessarily large doesn't benefit anyone. If you meet the requirements already, submit your application. IRCC will ask you for more information if needed!

Just to be safe, I would reach out to @CitImmCanada on Twitter to ask how big of an issue this would be. Like what @primaprime said, it is a grey area and might be entirely up to the case officer working on your file. I find that IRCC is reasonable enough when it comes to smaller amounts of...

This depends on what you mean by "completing" your studies. Just because classes have ended doesn't mean you've graduated. If you worked right after classes were done but you hadn't graduated yet, it won't be as bad as if you worked after graduation without a work permit. I would speak to a...

You'll see it during the application process. They'll provide you with multiple areas to upload documents. I wouldn't called it a personalized checklist, some of the fields are obviously irrelevant. You should already have an idea of what you're claiming and be ready to prove those claims.

Companies go under all the time and it isn't your fault. As long as you have proof that you were employed, you're good. Include tax documents, pay information, official communications like job offers, etc. I disagree with people who say the applications are easily rejected. Canada WANTS you...

If you are claiming points for your foreign work experience you need to show a letter. You do not need to show a letter if you list the experience under Personal History (so you don't claim points for it) You can list your Dental Tech experience under Personal History so you don't claim any...

I didn't have to submit transcripts for my PGWP in 2018. All I needed was a letter confirming satisfactory program completion.

You aren't getting refused for self-harming marks. A medical reason for refusal is if you have a condition that could place unwanted stress on Canada's medical system, I believe. Hope you're in a better place now!
