Express Entry Step by step instructions.

Hi, Can someone help me?
I submitted my EE profile. I got my EE application number. But I have not received any communication/PDF with my job seeker code.
Should I be waiting for a certain number of days? Or did I do something wrong. I understand that I need that code to apply on job bank and also for PNP.. Any response would help, please

I have already tried this link. Are we supposed to get the pdf mentioned immediately on the profile or does it take a couple of days after submission of EE profile?

It could take a few days. If you don’t, the link tells you what to do…“If you did not get a code, there are a few reasons why this may be.”

Hey everyone!
So I got an ITA and am now uploading the documents
In the document checklist, there is an upfront medical exam field. But I thought we had to wait until we receive a request from the officers to pass the medical exam.
The canada.ca website also says that 'Don’t get your medical exam as soon as you get your invitation to apply. We will send you a form telling you when and how to get a medical exam.'

Which one's correct and what should we do now? Please advise. Thank you!

Hi. Need your help.
my ITA was done in March 2020. My medical was expired. 6 months back I did it again but it’s not updated in-my profile. These days how much time it takes to update

Hi All, I need your help. My aunt is declared in my EE profile as a relative who is a Canadian Citizen but now that I got my ITA, can I remove her from my application as we have a family feud and I won't be able to provide any documents from her. Do I have to attach an LOE if I remove her? I wasn't granted any points by declaring her anyways

Hello, I had expired COPR and IRCC requested for re-medicals that were passed Jan 6, 2022. I stay in the USA, I received an email today Feb 10, 2022 with a "Request Letter" to submit passports to Visa Application Centre – New York.
I previously sent the passport to Canada, however this time around they are asking to send it to New York. Not sure if anything changed recently. Anyone, please share their thoughts.

It's all on the CIC site: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp

But...

(Please note that this info does not apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program)

1) Determine your eligibility by doing this CIC quiz http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/ee-start.asp

2) Get your language test(s) done. You must get at least CLB 7 in each of the four sections for the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) or Canadian Experience Class (CEC) streams. But getting CLB 10 gives you maximum points for language.

How does CLB match back to the language tests? That info is here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/language/charts.asp

3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp

4) Determine the code that best applies to you on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/noc.asp

The occupation must be NOC 0, A, or B for FSW or CEC.

5) When you have those in hand you create your express entry profile. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/profile.asp and register for the Job Bank http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/home-eng.do?lang=eng

You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/pool.asp

Of course, the more points you have the better. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer with a very hard to get Labour Market Impact Assessment http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp

For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.

6) Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following:

a) Have your application fee (C$550 each for principal applicant and spouse) and right of permanent resident fee (C$490 each for principal applicant and spouse) ready
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp

b) Identify how you will provide proof of funds http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp

c) check out what is required for the police certificates http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/security/police-cert/index.asp

d) find out how long it takes to get a date for the medical exam. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp

e) contact previous and current employers about them providing job letters. You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week. Work experience while you were a full-time student does not count.

f) research cities in the province(s) where you want to live.

Thx for this vital information

Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding the language tests. If I am the main applicant, is it mandatory that my wife takes as well a language test (it certainly gives more points (not that much though))

Hello everyone,

If you don‘t need the points, then she doesn’t need IELTS. Make sure she is listed as accompanying.
