I don’t understand what it means and what’s the next step please I need your advice

Nothing to do. Your bio-metric will be updated in your profile and after that, just wait for PPR email.

Your question did not make any sense to me.

No I meant, if I change the primary NOC to my existing job as it matches with the lead statement of the NOC code, will IRCC look at the other NOC codes mentioned in my profile for which I am claiming points?

It takes time for a FSTP application to get approved. After completing six months, you can request for an update through a web-form

There's another question at the bottom, just answer yes, if you've identified all immediate family members. This question appeared for me as well.

Thanks _ladyj, I did that initially but the form still showed incomplete. After couple of move and back, it is showing complete now.

If I ace my celpip in the coming sunday, I should have a 478 CRS score, what's my chance, the cut-off score seems creeping up really fast lately.

Also, I would like to ask if I can get any province nomination(preferablely Ontario) if I am a Software Engineer? information seems scant on this topic.

Check the last paragraph out - "Permanent residence applicants"
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/campaigns/biometrics/facts.html

Permanent residence applicants
You’ll need to give your biometrics and pay the fee each time you apply, even if you gave your biometrics in the past for another application.

it is said that biometrics are valid for ten years. I don’t think you need to give your biometric again.
As for me I gave my biometric for work permit year ago and then Later applied for express entry they didn’t ask me to give it again.

Hi All,

I will appreciate if you can answer my below questions:

I have three jobs in total. Out of which only one job (current job) adds to my crs score. The previous two jobs doesn’t qualify to increase my crs score.
My question is “CAN I REMOVE THOSE TWO JOBS FROM EE PROFILE’s work history ”. If I remove these two jobs from the work history then where should I disclose these in my profile or application? Please advise ASAP.

Hello,

I would like to ask you guys about your opinion to apply for Express Entry.

I had my IELTS scheduled for 13th March 2020. But due to the corona outbreak, the exam was cancelled and I will receive a full refund. These days no one knows when it will be possible to sit a new exam. And that causes me worry - as my birthday is coming next week and I will turn 35, I am about to lose some CRS points.
Today I have read an official statement from IRCC:

"If you’re missing documents necessary for the completeness check because of disruptions related to the novel coronavirus (COVID 19), you can still submit your application.

• You must submit a letter explaining the reason why you’re missing documents. Your application will be held until further notice."

So what do you think? If I can provide a proof (send a letter supported my situation) that I couldn’t take the IELTS, can I still apply for EE even without IELTS? I mean to apply for EE with the low IELTS bands like 6 for each section, and during the year I hopefully will be able to take the test and provide real marks.

Thanks

“Deadline for responding to an ITA
Upon receipt of an ITA, a candidate has 60 calendar days to do one of the following:

- Submit a complete application for permanent residence (APR) in their online account. This includes providing all supporting documentation up front.

-Decline the ITA in their online account”

As the CIC website states that there are 60 days to submit the application after receiving ITA but somehow mine is 90 days. Is it strange or because of Covid-19?

A query on adding education history while creating EE profile.

I have graduated in a 5 year integrated course with the degree, Master of Science (M.Sc). Its a direct M.Sc degree - so there is no dual degree or Bachelor's degree awarded separately. It is just a single degree certificate and a single period of study from 2009 to 2014.

I got the ECA done by WES and the report says, Bachelor's Degree and post graduate diploma (one year) for the single credential that I have.

When it comes to adding Education history while creating the the EE profile, how do I add this correctly and make sure I do not miss out on points?

Which of the following options should I follow? Option 1 (one entry) or 2 (two entries)

Option	# Entries	Level of Education	Period of Study	Level of Education ( Canadian equivalent )
1.	1.	Master's degree	2009-2014	Bachelor's Degree
2.	1. 2.	Master's degree Master's degree	2009-2014 2009-2014	Bachelor's Degree One year program

Or is there a different way in which I should add the education history? Please advice.
