There is no fixed format.

Just make sure the reference/experience letter is written on company letterhead and contains the following:

1. Your name, job title and job responsibilities
2. Duration of employment
3. Annual salary
4. Work hours
5. Signed and dated by your manager or HR
6. Name and job title of the person signing the letter
7. Address, phone number and email id of the company

Good luck.
Thanks for the tip. Cheers.

Hi,

In short, you most likely wont.

When you submit your PR application (after entering the pool and receiving an invitation to apply) you will need to submit a letter from the bank as proof of funds. This letter must state your average 6 months balance and your current balance (to show stability). If the is no significant difference between the two balances there is no need for an explanation. But if there is, you will need to explain your source of funds. So in your case the funds are likely to have been in you account for more than 6 months when you submit, so you are in a great position.

I hope that makes it clear.
Thank you for clearing out my doubt :) and in this case, if I deposit more cash than the needed amount, will be a plus point right?

Hi Seniors

I have a few queries concerning e-APR submission.

1) My wife is pregnant with the baby due in first week Sep 2017. Is there a possibility to defer medical till child birth? Or we will need to go through the medical process now? ITA submission last date is 27th Sep but it will take a while to get documents made for the new born and there is a strong likelihood that the formalities will get completed post the aforementioned date.

2) How will I go about adding my child's information post submission of e-APR?

3) How much time does CIC gives to applicants to complete medical requirements for new born babies keeping in view that e-APR has already been submitted?

Kindly guide.

Hi,

Congratulations on the ITA and the coming bundle of joy.

1) You must do your medicals upfront. However, you have the option of doing everything and leaving your wife's chest x-ray. Your meds will only pass after you submit them.
2) You update IRCC through a Case Specific Enquiry.
3) You can add dependants at any time before the confirmation of PR, but you must inform them asap. As soon as you have the birth certificate.

Hi,

Thank you so much for the valuable information.

I received my NOI from Ontario Province and I am in the process of preparing documents and the first document says, "
1. Notification of Interest from Ontario (mandatory)
A copy of your Notification of Interest (NOI) letter from Ontario that was sent to your online account with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Note: Please ensure that you capture the date that the NOI was sent to your account.
"

I don't see a download option to get this downloaded from EE profile. can i take the screenshot and then merge then into a single better clarity pdf?. Will this work? Please suggest in helping me out.:(

Hi,

There is no requirement for an applicant to meet the employment requirements of the NOC. So you can have a degree in history and still qualify for NOC 2161. What is important is that you have performed the actions in the lead statement and the vast majority of the duties listed in the NOC.

Hi,

1) All you need is a reference letter with all the details required by IRCC.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp

So all other documents are extra and not necessary.

2) You need PCC for the whole country not certain parts of it. This is common cause of rejection, so make sure you get it right.

Regards.

Hi everyone,
I am from NOIDA, INDIA. I am on the verge of applying for Express Entry. However am facing a hiccup at the moment. For ECA, am not sure what way should be followed to send the documents to WES (World Education Services). I completed my 12th from CBSE and bachelors from Uttar Pradesh Technical University. I am slightly confused. Can someone please help me with this asap? Do I need to send them the documents for my bachelors only or do I need to include the documents of my high school as well?

Hi,

1) Yes, you can. You will later be asked for proof of this relationship.
2) IELTS is not compulsory for the spouse but will add to your overall CRS score.

All the best
