Do we need LMIA or valid job offer to be in the pool?
Also, for the question regarding the educational attainment, are we going to include the education back home (in my case, from the Philippines) or just the study here in Canada? Thank you.
Education depends on whether you need CRS points for your foreign education.

Hello all! Need some help/advice with WES verification:

I did a 3-year programme under SQA HND (Scottish Qualification Authority Higher National Diploma) top-up program, first two years in China (awarded a Higher Educational Diploma from SQA) and the final year in the UK (awarded a degree of bachelor of arts with honours 120 credits).

What's the right way to have these two certificates evaluated by WES? I put China in "country of education" for the SQA HND diploma, and it gets messy as it requires chinese authorities to provide verifications and translations, since neither certificate was issued by chinese institutions nor were they issued in Chinese language.

Welp, thanks a lot)

Proof of funds is the same for every country? I don’t understand the logic behind no obligation to repay debt. Everyone has to repay the debt to their parents. Anyways it’s a general query as I have all sound proof of funds and no obligations.

Hi everyone, asking for your help guys. We are not allowed to stay and work here in Canada if our work permit expires and just in the pool for PR (without ITA), if anyone here, please kindly send me a link which shows that we a person needed to go out of Canada if that person doesn’t have ITA yet, I have to prove it to my sponsor, because they believe that I can stay and work while I am in the pool. (I might get illegal if that happened). Thank you all.

There is no link that says you need to leave Canada if you don't have ITA.

If you don't have ITA and want to remain in Canada and your work permit is expiring, then you can apply to change your status to visitor. This will let you stay in Canada but of course you'll have to stop working as soon as your work permit expires.

There's no link that I'm aware of that specifically says that.

ITA does not allow you to keep working. You need to apply for a BOWP after getting ITA and after submitting your full application in order to be able to work. That information is here.

I have 1 year of experience through an employment program. After it was over, my employer kept me on, but insted of paying me throughout a bank account, like for the first year, I was given cash in hand. My employer will write a letter stating thst I worked for 2 years. So is that letter enough? I have no proof of payment during the second year.
