Hello Friends

I have recently got ITA In October 3rd draw and have below questions. Appreciate your response:

1. Financial Support : Will fixed deposit statement be considered? or just savings and current accounts.
2. Family Member Proof of Status : I assume only the PR card of my relative would be good to go?
3. Proof of sibling relationship : In order to prove the sibling relationship, Does passport of me and my sibling having common parents suffice or do we need to provide any other relationship document as well? If so, then what can i provide?
4. Education: Do we need to provide the class 10th and 12 documents as well?
5. Employment records: Can you please assist me what all documents do we need to provide? Also, is job responsibility letter mandatory?
6. Do we need to fill certain forms as well once we submit the profile.

Hi.. need some advice..
in my express entry profile I mistakenly wrote dates of one of my employment records from "2016-04 to 2016-06" when in fact it was actually from "2016-04 to 2018-06".. I got to know this while I was updating my information in the port-ITA application. I have now corrected it and have got the experience letter from the employer for the same time period. Now, do I need to write this in an LoE when submitting my eAPR or can I just ignore it as it does not affect my overall score?
any help would be much appreciated...

It's all on the CIC site: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp

But...

(Please note that this info does not apply to the Federal Skilled Trades Program)

1) Determine your eligibility by doing this CIC quiz http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/ee-start.asp

2) Get your language test(s) done. You must get at least CLB 7 in each of the four sections for the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Provincial Nomination Program (PNP) or Canadian Experience Class (CEC) streams. But getting CLB 10 gives you maximum points for language.

How does CLB match back to the language tests? That info is here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/language/charts.asp

3) Get your qualifications assessed by doing an Education Credential Assessment. Details here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assessment.asp

4) Determine the code that best applies to you on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/noc.asp

The occupation must be NOC 0, A, or B for FSW or CEC.

5) When you have those in hand you create your express entry profile. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/profile.asp and register for the Job Bank http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/home-eng.do?lang=eng

You'll be given points based on your age, education, number of years work experience, and language skills. The points system is detailed here --> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

You'll be in a pool with thousands of other applicants http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/pool.asp

Of course, the more points you have the better. The max is 1200, with 600 of those points coming from your ability to snag a PNP or a job offer with a very hard to get Labour Market Impact Assessment http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/employers/lmo-basics.asp

For CEC applicants, the max is 600 but someone who has no work experience in Canada who is only eligible for FSW can only get up to 520 points.

6) Finally, wait for your invitation to apply (ITA). But in the interim you will need to do the following:

a) Have your application fee (C$550 each for principal applicant and spouse) and right of permanent resident fee (C$490 each for principal applicant and spouse) ready
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp

b) Identify how you will provide proof of funds http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp

c) check out what is required for the police certificates http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/security/police-cert/index.asp

d) find out how long it takes to get a date for the medical exam. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp

e) contact previous and current employers about them providing job letters. You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week. Work experience while you were a full-time student does not count.

f) research cities in the province(s) where you want to live.

Hi, on the working experience, There are 2 questions. The work experience in Canada and the other general working experience. I got a bit confused there. Can you please advice because I have 9 years working experience on NOC B but have never worked in Canada before.

As regards job search, Sign into your account and click on the profile details. You will see a message asking you to register in job bank.

Dear Seniors,

Please advise as:

1) Can I create Express Entry Profile, if I have CRS lower than 350?
2) For PNPs, do I need to create separate Express Entry Profile on their websites?
3) What are minimum CRS to create express entry profile?

Thanks in advance for your support and guidance.
