Can Nurses apply in Express Entry, as their category doesn't come under Skill 0, A or B?
Licensed practical nurses (NOC Code 3233) are skill level B...

Thanks for your prompt reply. My wife is not a Registered Nurse in Canada, but currently working in Italy. Is she eligible to apply as a Principal applicant in EE? Now, how long is the period to await ITA once applied for EE

Unfortunately, I'm not sure about the nurse thing. You might want to start a specific thread about it to see if you can attract the attention of someone who might know...

Once you've submitted an EE profile, how soon you get an ITA depends on how high your CRS Score is. The most recent draws have had CRS cut-offs around 435, so, unless something drastically changes in the next few draws, if your wife has a CRS Score higher than 435, she can expect an ITA within 1 day to 3 weeks of submitting her EE profile (draws tend to happen 2 to 3 weeks apart on Wednesdays, so it depends on when she submits her EE profile in relation to the last draw). If her score if lower than 435, she might have to wait a while for the CRS cut-off in Draws to (hopefully) go down.

Hi Seniors, Just starting out on the process of EE. Had a question on Education. I have an Engineering degree from India and after which I have done my Masters in Computer science from a US University and recently I have also done a 2.5 yr MBA from a UK University.
Do I have to do WES evaluation for all 3 degrees or just for the Masters Computer science enough. Because for CRS points, the Masters is the maximum one can get and computer science is a more required skill than MBA. This is my thought process, please let me know if I am thinking right. Thanks.

Hi Guys,

There is section in 'contact details' section of ITA app which requires the 'address history' where you have lived. My question is regarding this:

Which addresses qualify to be entered in this section? I mean how long do you have to live at a particular address for it to be entered in this section?

I am asking that I have lived on multiple addresses in other countries for a short period of times (1 month, 2 months) for my internships, office assignments etc. and I don't really remember or have record of those addresses.

Hi the app says that you have to mention all the education you have done over the years especially since your bachelors so I would suggest to get attestation for all 3 degrees as there is no harm in it.

Also, just an FYI. There are other organizations besides WES that do attestation as well.

Hi members,

Did we (me and my wife) need to attach our national ID and the official translation in addition to our passports when uploading the documents for PR?

Thx for your advice!

Hi all,
I received my ITA and am filling up my application now. One question: In the EE profile, I mentioned Spouse work experience. However, as it is not Canadian experience, I would like to change it in the application and say 'No' for spouse work experience. How do I make that change? What button do I press to go back? I am lost. Please help

About to apply.
Hello friends,

I missed the bus the Canada in 2012 after the rules changed, however now thought of applying through Express Entry. Done with my IELTS and ECA under process. I need your views on my following queries:

1. Once i submit my Express Entry and enter the pool, can I at a later stage add IELTS/ECA of my wife to increase the points.

2. Does work exp. of wife gets any points, in the CRS (out of 1200) and other points (out of 100).

3. Does my wife gets point if she has relatives in Canada (not brother or sister).

4. Will my relative ie. uncle/aunty/nephew/neice will also qualify as my wife's relative?? or the relative should be strictly from my wife's side of family.

5. If i submit the Express Entry point today, will i be in the pool immediately or after some lead time.

6. While calculating CRS points, highest experience they ask is for '3 years or more'. so does it mean it makes absolutely no difference if my experience is 4 years or 10 year?. and in that case am i require to give experience certificates for the entire 10 years or only 3 years is fine?

Thank your friends in advance for helping me out. Awaiting your response.

Regards,
Nish
