Hi

I know you guys are helping people a lot and I am desperate need for some guidance. Please suggest me what to do. I am the principle applicant for Express entry immigration process and I have CRS score 469 in my EE profile. My wife recently went to Canada for higher studies. While we are preparing for Express entry we took her fingerprint for FBI PCC (since both of us stayed in USA more than 2 years). Unfortunately, her fingerprint was weak so FBI rejected her PCC request twice within last 8 months. However, when she applied for study permit she submitted name based STATE CLEARANCE and they accept it. Now, I am still not confident they will accept name based state clearance for immigration so I am going to try for FBI PCC again. This is why I am thinking applying from Canada might be good since we are already in Canada through some clearance but I am not sure.

Now given the situation which options from below I should choose and why:


Option 1: Wait until I get the ITA and apply for Canada immigration from Bangladesh while my wife will remain in Canada. Will it be a problem since she is already in Canada and I am in Bangladesh while applying? The drawback is it might take long (Singapore office vs Ottawa office) and if the PR get rejected I might not the get the chance to visit her in Canada. Moreover, do you think it might be safe to apply form Canada since my wife has some issues with her FBI clearance?


Option 2: Apply for TRV immediately then move to Canada. From Canada apply for immigration after getting ITA. Please note if I apply from Canada I have to apply for open work permit to work until I get PR. Now the drawback is what if I dont get OWP and unable to work for 6 months/until I get PR/not. How difficult will be getting an OWP?


Option 3: Apply for TRV immediately then move to Canada. From Canada apply for immigration after getting ITA. Then I will come back to Bangladesh. However, my wife will be still in Canada. Will it be a problem since I applied from Canada but will live in Bangladesh while the PR process will go on?


Thanks in advance!

You can change your EE profile.
I don't know how you deal with BC PNP; I've never experienced this.
Last time I modified something on my EE profile, it became in eligible and I couldn't change anything.

Since at this point I have met the criteria for both FSW and CEC based on my 1 year Canadian work experience I am not sure if setting the amount to zero would make it ineligible again as FSW criteria will go out of the window right?

I have submitted the EE profile number and job seeker code to BC PNP, if my EE profile become ineligible, I will lose the BC PNP application fee $550, as I will have to submit a new one.

Your thoughts/suggestions?

Hello my fellow members

I have completed
B.sc computer Science (3 years) - Bachelors Degress (4 years) as per WES.
M.sc computer Science (2 years) - PostGraduate Diploma(One years) as WES.

Now, my query is what is the highest level of Education i must choose while creating EE profile?

For B.sc , i selected Bachelors Degree.
For M.sc --- what should i select?

Is it
Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees?
OR
One-year degree, diploma or certificate from a program at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute.

Please suggest.

Note : I have read the forums on the same topic, but couldn't arrive at a point.

If your ECA says that your Master's is only equivalent to a 1-year diploma, then you need to select "Two or more..." as your highest level of education.
In this case, you need to select "two or more..." for both options.

On an average 5-6 months, again it depends on case to case. NDVO is currently processing March applications.
