Hi All, I am sorry to write in wrong thread. But please help us in regarding 1 question.
My friend working in NOC B job, got IELTS band reading 6, writing 5.5, speaking 7, listening 7.5..
Got only 5.5 in writing.
Is it eligible to drop for express entry .!!
Please suggest.
Your Help will be greatly appreciated
Thank you.
If under Federal Skilled Worker Program, yes he needs to withdraw his application. He needs at least IELTS writing 6.0 which is equivalent to CLB 7. If under Canadian Experience Class, he is fine. The minimum requirement is CLB 5 (i.e. IELTS writing 5.0).

Hi guys
Any one please can explain that

We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.

You may not hear from us for a little while, this is normal. Most of the progress on your application happens closer to your estimated completion date.

This is a generalization of your application status. CIC usually says this so that people don't panic when they don't see any updates for a long period of time. Your application gets in a queue, when an AOR is sent to you, and will be tended to when it's turn comes up, so if there are a lot of applications in the queue before yours, then there'll be a longer wait time. However, they'll make sure to complete the processing of your application by the time the deadline is reached.

For update on every facet of your application, you should refer to the table/ list below with each component and their respective statuses.

Hi all,

I applied under CEC
Application : 22nd May 2019
ITA: 29th May 2019
Documents submitted: 18th june, 2019
AOR: 19th june, 2019

My file currently says - you do not need medical exam, interview, etc. Is that a good sign? Its not even been 24 hours since submission.

Its very very early in your application. Just be patient, it will take about 6 weeks (hopefully earlier) for your medicals to pass. Lets take it one milestone at a time.

That is OK. Just take some time and read other peoples timelines. It will give you an idea what to expect. Then again no 2 applications are the same. Hopefully yours comes very quick and does not follow the timelines here. Good luck with your process.

I've observed/ heard that most of CEC applications show IP2 after MEP even if IP1 might not have started. But receiving ghost updates is a good sign, it means the application is moving forwards.

That's right CEC inland applicants usually skip the IP1 stage and move straight to IP2 after their medicals pass.
