By transcripts, you mean a photocopy of the degree, mark sheets?
Nope.

You have two options for the documents to be sent to WES and they are:

1). Transcripts: They are a consolidated list of your marks obtained in the course. They can be subject wise or semester wise and depends on the structure of your course. You will need to send subject wise transcripts to WES and it should be prepared by your University duly signed by Controller of Examination or Registrar of the University. Then, your university should put them in an envelope which should be sealed and signed by COE or registrar.

2). Photocopies of your Marksheets: You can get the photocopies and original marksheets with you and go to the University. You have to request COE or Registrar to attest the photocopies. Registrar or COE will verify these photocopies either with the original marksheets which you will have or from their internal records. After attestation, the official should put them in a sealed envelope with University stamp on it.

Now, some universities directly send these envelopes to WES and others just hand it over to you which depends on their discretion. If they send it directly to WES then you have to give them WES reference number so that they can mention on top of the envelope. If they hand it over to you then you have to send the envelope to WES after writing the reference number and without altering the envelope.

I hope this will clarify your doubts. Do not make any mistake otherwise WES will reject to evaluate your docs.

Good Luck.

I was trying to avoid attestation, but it looks like that's a must. Thank you for clarifying. I think, it's time to visit my college.

You will have to create a new EE profile and inform OINP.

Please find below email that an applicant received from OINP for the same question.

If the profile on which you received a Letter of Interest became ineligible, you have to advise our office.

The Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) will continue to process your application if you create a new Express Entry profile, however, to do so we require you to provide the following within 30 calendar days of receipt of this notice, or if you have not yet submitted your application, with the application:

1. The Express Entry number/job seeker validation code for your new profile;
2. A copy of the letter you have received from Citizenship and Immigration Canada acknowledging the new profile; and
3. A letter explaining why you updated your profile and a list of the additional or updated information you provided in your new Express Entry profile.

Dear all

I have one question which I need to clarify. Already searched the forum, but not seeing a straight answer.

I got my ITA two weeks back and filling travel history is killing me. It says all the travel except to country or origin or residence. My situation is bit complex. I am a Sri Lanka born person but acquired Singapore citizenship 5 years back. Now I work in Canada under a work permit.

Please really appreciate if some of you guys could clarify this

Since I was born in Sri Lanka, I take this as my country of origin. Hence I do not need mention any trips to Sri Lanka either from Canada or Singapore.

Thanks a lot for your help

HI
I have a question about travel history, about 7 years back I was in France for a period of three months on Schengen visa.
Sunce the visa lets you visit all the countries in EU, I went on weekend trips to Germany, Spain etc.
However, I have absolutely NO records of my travels there. I travelled almost every weekend, on trains - with a Eurail pass - so no tickets either.
Now, how can I honestly disclose this in my travel history?
There are no stamps on the passport when you travel between EU countries.

While selecting the NOC, the duties and responsibilities mentioned in the NOC should be a close match with the actual duties and responsibilities carried out by you at the respective job. You need not match the duties and responsibilities word by word, but the idea is to have the closest match in terms of the spirit of the duties and responsibilities (at least 60%-70% match).

Also, NOC should be selected on the basis of the match of actual duties and responsibilities carried out by you rather than the designation match in the NOC list. If you are not sure of your NOC, write to noc@workingincanada.gc.ca with your job title, duties and responsibilities and educational qualification, they will help you find the closest fit.

Hi everyone, I am considering applying for Express Entry but wanting to get my documents in shape first.

About the proof of funds, would it matter how long one has maintained the required balance in one's account? I mean if I get a huge amount credited to my account but can proof it's my money and not borrowed. Would that be okay?
