Hey everyone,

I'm looking to apply for PR in next few days and have one question for my wife. Right now we are both in Canada with work permits.

I have all documents ready, I certificated my diploma, I know my NOC, have English test results ready... But my wife didn't certified her diploma and she has master degree in our country but that doesn't mean Canada accepts her master's degree and there is option to choose bachelor or master degree for her.

Should we first certificate her diploma and then apply, or we can go with her master degree from our country?
How much is this important since I'm primary applicant?

Thanks!

When you say apply for PR do you mean create an Express Entry Profile or submit the actual PR application (post-ITA)? The answer to your question depends on the stage you are in.

Hi and welcome,

Yes, CLB7 in each module. There is no minimum for your wife as she only adds to your score. In fact, it is not even mandatory for her to take the test, you can apply with out her scores.

Hi,

Thanks for attending and resolving my query. Was travelling in a public transport so the type error.
Hi,

I ran into this post and thread that might be of interest to you:

"The passport must have at least 6 months validity when it is submitted for visa.
The validity of the visa will be ONE year from the date of medical or expiry date of the passport which ever comes early."

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/passport-validity.90267/#post-1161051

So make sure that your passport has at least 6 months left on it when you submit it for visa stamping.

Regards

Both countries as advised above.
"Police certificates are required up front and are mandatory for each country (except Canada) where an individual has lived for a total of six months or more."

Hi,

Thanks, the question is if I get the request to submit my application by say June or July, the place I'm working has a three months notice to serve if I decide to leave them, also winding up thInfs in my home country will take around a month so it will be like October. When I will be fully ready to move to Canada. And my passport will be expiring on march 2018...so I will only have three months that my passport will be valid for ( that too if everything goes as I'm thinking) so when I plan to travel should I get my passport renewed as it will get expire in 2-3 months...so if I get the visa stamp done on my old passport and then get it renewed then also do I. Red to tell IRCC about my cub age in passport.
Hi,

In my understanding, one is not allowed to travel on a passport, which has less than 6 months of validity. Happened with my friend and he has to return from Airport. Do check and plan accordingly.

Since your passport is expiring in March 2018, therefore you are eligible to renew it now.. why not renew it now and avoid any hassles.

Hi,

Thanks for your update, I think when I will receive the request for submission for passport for stamping then it should have more than 6 months validity, but I might take some time to actually land in Canada, so you mean my visa would only valid till my passport validity. Also if I get my passport renewed after stamping and then inform IRCC would that be ok. Also I'm the secondary applicant if that gives some levay.

Hi,

The problem if I go for renewal of my passport then I would require fresh PCC. That would have taken time. So I have submitted my old passport and thought when I will receive the passport then would inform IRCC.

Hello I have a PCC related question.

I am from India, but live in another country
Do I have to get the PCC only after I leave India? This is little confusing.
I already got a PCC from my local police station, last time I visited INdia in January.

1. However someone told me, if I live abroad; its mandatory to get the PCC from consulate...is it so ??

2. I wanted to visit the local consulate this week, however another question came. I am planning to visit India next month. SO someone said, I should get the PCC only after I come back from India. which means if I get the PCC this month and again visit India next month, this PCC will get invalid; is it so ??

~TIA
