Hi everyone,

I got an ITA under FSWC, as well as request letter for RPRF. Does that mean I'm eligible to apply for an Open Work Permit? If so, what documents should be included in my application?

Thank you.

If you are able to submit e-APR before your IELTS results expire, then you do not need to reappear.

I have a question regarding Police Verification from FBI in US.
I lived in US till March 2009 and thus, I need to get the verification from FBI done now.
However, I am planning to travel to US for couple of weeks in March and July this year.

So, should I initiate the FBI process now and would it be applicable for my future visits, so do I need to get the verification done only after my other visits are done?

Thanks

It all depends on when you submit your e-APR. If you receive ITA in this month, then you need to get it asap. Else, if you think you might get it later after some visits, then you need to obtain your FBI USA after your last visit to USA. You can apply during your last visit and you will get it after you return back to your country.

Dear all:

Questions for Personal Activities:

(1) I graduated March 2010. Enrolled at review school on May 2010. There is a gap dated April 2010. During that time I self-review or technically I am waiting for the May 2010 Review.
(a) What will i put, Educational Activity or Unemployed?
(b) If Educational Activity, I don't have any supporting documents to present since this is just self review. Do I have to present anything?

(2) From May 2010 to October 2010, I took the Board Review. Do i need supporting documents? If yes, what document?

(3) From January 2013 onwards, I became a member Institute of Internal Auditors and ISACA. Do i need to declare this? Do i need to present documents? What documents?


Questions For Address History:

(1)What supporting documents do we need to present?

(2) What if I could no longer remember the exact date we started living in that address? What is the remedy?

Thank you so much.

Hi,

I am currently in US on OPT. I have been a full time employee(Application Engineer) from May 2014 to OCT 2016. But I also worked as web Developer at university and a company from August 2012 to Jan 2014 as part time (20hrs per week).

When filling Express Entry profile can I mention my part time??(If I can get all required documents and letters from employers) Will that part time period be considered as my experience??

Thanks alot for the advice. I have IELTS score of 8 and sitting at 458 points.

Got it. Thanks. I am not expecting ITA anytime soon, as I think I would need Nomination to get required points. So, I guess I would wait till my trip and then apply for FBI verification.

Hello gurus. I need help to increase my CRS score and increase my chances of getting ITA. I have a Bachelor's degree evaluated favourably by IQAS. I also have a diploma in brewing certificate from IBD(Institute of Brewing and distilling) but IQAS declined to evaluate it stating that it's a professional certificate. Can I still claim points for two or more degree or must the diploma be evaluated first.

Hi guys,

Wanted your opinion regarding my Travel History.

1. Should the travel date start when I leave my native country or when I land in the visiting country?

2. Should the travel date end when I leave the visiting country or when I land in my native country?

3. How should I include my travel (transit visa) during layover because my passport has a transit visa stamp, hence I have to mention it in travel history?

eg. Started from South Africa on 13.12.2014 night, landed in Istanbul on 14.12.2014 morning (took transit visa and roamed the city) then took same evening flight to India and reached on 15.12.2014 morning.

ADDRESS HISTORY

1. With reference to point no.3 from travel history, how should I mention this in my address history ?

As in my visa it is mentioned as below:

Exit from South Africa - 13.12.2014
Transit Visa - 14.12.2014
Entered India - 15.12.2014

As you can see above, on 14.12.2014 I was on a layover. So, in my address history I can mention my address in south Africa up till 13.12.2014. My next address history column mentions 15.12.2014 in India so I have 1 day GAP (for 14.12.2014).

SO HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS GAP ISSUE IN ADDRESS HISTORY?


Thanks In advance
