Does WES accept document by FAX with the reference no mentioned on it ? :-X

Yes . Send a signed letter stating that you require report in both names along with other documents. Also mention reference number on each copy.

Dear all,

I'm new in this forum and need your help!
I've applied for express entry program, but I have only 285 scores.
Potentially I'd have also a job offer but the employer says that to proceed with the offer I have ti be registeted. What do you think about? I mean, do you think I have to be registered first and he can proceed with the offer?

Thank you in advance!

Unless she acquired this work experience inside Canada, No. If this experience was outside Canada, you can safely leave it out of your application as it makes no difference.

Thanks but I had already mentioned it in the application and now as part of application for ITA, it is asking Employment Details for her as well.

You cannot "apply for ITA" per say. You have to create an online Express Entry profile first. CIC will issue ITA through draws. They get to choose the cut-off score for the draws. I suggest you learn about how EE works before proceeding. You can start here :

Hi Friends,

L-6.5
R-7
W-6
S-6.5
When I checked for the eligibility for express entry, it said am eligible.

But, When I try filing the application, am getting message in CIC notification as am not eligible. Can you please guide me here what I have to do now?

Please help!

Thanks,
Sathick.

Hi all, new to the forum, just starting the PR process! noc will likely be 1223/b. I've been searching quite a lot but just need some clarification on a few things...

I'm wondering if I should 100% do the english test and get my education credentials verified before I create my EE profile?

i.e., are the english test results you put in when "checking eligibility" on the CIC site recorded and carried over when you use the personal reference code to create an EE profile, or can you put anything in to get the code and then update english test results when they're actually done?

Also, my current score looks to be about 437/440ish (provided I get the English score I think I will) - is that enough to enter the pool straight away or should I wait until 2016 when I can try for an extra 600 points with PNP and/or will have more points in July once I've been working in Canada for two years?

Once the EE profile is created, I assume you're not entered into the pool until you submit the profile yourself - so there's time to build it up once it's created?

Thanks!

You probably need an ECA.

Hello everyone. Is 406 without any jobs offer a score good enough? Also, received a message that says Ontario province has shown interest in my profile so I'm getting all my documents in line for that. Will need to pay a fees of 1500 Canadian Dollars, does anyone know if this fees is refundable in anyway? And if the highest score one can get without job offer is 600 then how exactly did the pool draw cut off start with 800 above in January 2015? Anyone knows of the number of invites or applicants targeted for 2015?? I read a few posts here that say the CIC have a target of 180000 candidates to put through express entry programs for 2015. According to all the draws so far a total of 23000 plus candidates have been sent an ITA already.. So how many more expected until December and could the score drop to 406??? Cry

The third work experience is during time when I was a Master student and working on my thesis. Does it count? Can I claim three years of work experience?

Any help appreciated.

Hello guys,

quick question: Should I or do I need to get my education assessed before launching the application? One provider stated the processing time being 25 weeks.... that is crazy and would set back my application for quite some time... What's the best thing to do?

Refundable only if the application is incomplete and returned back to you. In any other case, it's non refundable.

And if the highest score one can get without job offer is 600 then how exactly did the pool draw cut off start with 800 above in January 2015?
Logically, that means in January, a lot of candidates either had PNP nominations or a valid job offer. So others didn't get a chance.

Anyone knows of the number of invites or applicants targeted for 2015?? I read a few posts here that say the CIC have a target of 180000 candidates to put through express entry programs for 2015. According to all the draws so far a total of 23000 plus candidates have been sent an ITA already.. So how many more expected until December and could the score drop to 406??? Cry
Haven't seen any official information till date, others please comment.

WES says they take 20 days, though in my case they provided the online ECA report in just 17 days! Yes, you will need the ECA report (reference number on report) to create the Express entry profile.
