CRS: 415
NOC: 2131
Old EE Profile: 02 February 2017
Re-created EE Profile: 23 February, 2017
:D :D :D :D

I would like to ask for help from those who have applied for Ontario PNP. As I just received my NOI today, I will start to collect all the documents needed for the application and I have doubts.
  • Do I have to translate all the bank statements + bank letter?

I got e-APR just one day before you, so now I couldn't be more anxious to get PPR as well!

Do you know why it was so fast? Is there a reason for it?
Maybe because this was not your first attempt, or because you are single, or because you didn't get it being processed in SP visa office...?

No, just get them translated by an oficial sworn translator and you'll be fine. ;)

Hey g126, thanks once again!

One more question! LOL

On the documents list it says "WORK CONTRACTS (MANDATORY) FROM PREVIOUS AND CURRENT EMPLOYERS". I dont have any work contract, only my "Carteira de Trabalho". Would it be necessary to translate a copy of the page where it states the company and position I am at? The thing is that I am already sending them a copy of Pay stubs and the reference letter. I always worked for the same company.
I am trying to save some money with translations...

Thanks!

Anyone Know if it is possible do another medical if my expire or I will lose my application?

Medical exams are valid for 12 months, at least on EE.
I would check with SINP if you only need to present the new exam on arrival, or if you can request them to attach it to your application.

SK answers the questions by email really fast.

Really? Não tem contrato de trabalho?

Well in that case I would translate the CPTS and your job offer letters (needs to be something that has your salary, your work hours and preferably your benefits too) and explain in LoE.

The only way to save money with translations is finding a cheaper translator or someone that will give a discount on you whole 'package'... Not including some documents to save you a few R$ here may give you quite a headache later on...

I think that for OINP I spent around R$ 3000 on translations... bank statements and payslip were the bulk of that... I chose to translate 6 months of bank statements up front and then they asked me for 12 months along with 12 months of payslips in the end...

The good news is that you generally need to translate less things for the federal (post nomination) process (unless you're like me and need to prove a common law relationship... marriage is easy, just translate the martige certificate and you're done... but common law is a pain...)
