AINP009 form -- >> Some points to be clarified

[aajanachle]

All,
Am kind of new to this forum(2 weeks old) and found this forum very helpful in getting almost all my answers for filing AINP and CIC forms. Am almost done with AINP application and planning to send it by tomorrow EOD ... thanks to you all who have been generous enough to share your experience as you walk the process, it makes life easier for the ones who follow..
I had a few concerns on some questions and here is the answer to those based on what i have read here. Can someone find sometime and confirm these .. thanks much for your time.

1) Funds > I kept it as N/A for now. But in CIC stage they will need proof of funds (CAD $20000+ for 4 members)
2) CIC form copy that am sending alongwith AINP009 form does not have photos of me and my dependents. I believe we can send it this way to Alberta SRS @ Edmonton and attach/paste photos when we send forms to CIC(after AINP provides nominations at a later stage).
3) My current employers offer letter and employment certificate only mentions job title as a Teradata DBA but does not specify any job functions/duties. Is that enough or should i write a seperate note and attach it to my AINP application. I do have all W2, pay stubs and reference letters needed.
4) My wife is an Master's degree holder from our native country but does not have original and so we may not be able to get it notarised(doing it this evening). I have original semester transcripts though, Will it be ok to attach semester marksheets only as a proof of bachelor/master's desgree.

Please respond to each item .. thanks

1) Yes $20130 CAD

2) No pictures to Edmonton, later you'll send the pics to CIC

3) I think you need more about your duties than your title, what really are you doing there, see?

4) If you're the principal applicant I don;t thin it will be a problem.

Also don't forget your I-797 and H1B

And I'm not a consultant this is my opinion only

Thanks cchalbert

There's no proof of fund if you're applying as H1B!!!! just do your research!!!!!

Where did you find this info? Do you have an official link or e-mail etc?

As far as I know what cchabert wrote is correct. You do not need to show bank statement/balance at the AINP stage, but you would have to show the minimum amount when you send your application to the CIC Buffalo Office.

aajanachle, it does not hurt to write at least the minimum amount on that form instead of N/A. At some point, you will have to have that money anyway. I wrote the amount when I sent my application to the AINP as I did not know if I can write N/A at that time (it was a long time ago). Now, a lot of people have written N/A and looks like they are getting their nominations anyway. But if I were you, I would still write the minimum amount as there is nothing to lose.

Try to send in your LCA copy as it will have detailed job description, which seems to be asked of late -- 2 or 3 people have rcvd an enquiry of their job details.

I called them in Edmonton and they told me to put a N/A on the amount box of IMM 0008 economic form for provincial nominees. They also, said to send them (Alberta) a copy of all the CIC forms and keep the original for when you start the CIC application. Search the forums and you'll find more information about this.

I'm not saying this shouldn't be a good idea, but it's not required!

Better to mention Amound rather than N/A....

In CIC ....any way we need to submit the financial support document

Thanks nix1 & divagirl & CVRR. Your explanation makes BASIC sense to me.

divagirl, On job description/LCA the problem is my H1 was first approved in 2003 and that time it was as a programmer Analyst and since then its been extended once and transferred once. My current employer got it transferred using the same job description as they thought to avoid any RFE's etc from USCIS. Over the years my role has changed to a Teradata DBA(NOC 2172). I checked with my employer and they seem reluctant on providing any job description/duties letter though my offer letter and employment certificate has role mentioned as Teradata DBA(no job duties in detail). I have no other option but to send it this way to AINP.
Am thinking on attaching a handwritten note alongwith AINP009 form and mention the job details. Not sure how would the officer analyze/respond on that.

Fingers crossed ... any other genuine advice is welcome

Have a gr8 day ahead

H1B supplement documents would have these when employer is filing the case with USCIS. I got these supplement document from my employer as AINP also asked the same to submit if available for job title & description.

You can go through following thread from Reply# 232 to see what they have asked me for more details on job title & description

"AINP Application package(H1B Stream) sent after 01-01-2009 under the NEW process"
