Hello Yampower.. I have a quick question regarding the funds when applying for express entry ..

Is it acceptable if I take funds



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.

Yeah but I would strongly recommend that you submit a notarized gift deed. You can search the forum for more information about gift deed.

Hi rajkamalmohanram

Thanks for your reply

1. Degree Certificate (Final or Provisional)

I Have PROVISIONAL and Also CONVOCATION


2. Mark Sheets/Statement of Marks

It lists all subjects/papers taken and marks earned for each year of study and must include your university student identification number

My CONSOLIDATED TRANSCRIPT will have all SEMESTER marks and passed year in it would it be sufficient

I'm sorry but I wouldn't know. The requirements might change based on University. Please direct this question to WES as already advised or you can ask someone like a senior or a peer who went through this process.

Why was my Canada Express Entry PR application moved to NDVO? Does it mean my application is at its final stage?

Hello, in eAPR application, it says I need to pay for biometrics but they have not given me a schedule to do it.

Do I need to do it before submitting or wait for the schedule after I uploaded and submitted my EAPR?

Thank you everyone!

Hello ,
IM AOR JAN
I did a silly mistake of not mentioning masters degree of spouse in personal history.
We are not claiming points for it even though we had WES certificate for it but our points were enough to get ITA without it so it absolutely slipped my mind to include it in the personal history:(
I’m afraid of refusal

I would recommend filling out a schedule A and write a letter of explanation explaining that you genuinely missed to include this. You can send these through web form.

This is only my opinion.

Questions for the PR application:
1. May I know if I am required to scan all passport pages ?
2. Required PCC will be only showed after filling all information ?
3. For Spouse, working experience more than 10 years: do I need to put all working histories for spouse?
4. I received Ontario PNP pre-invite before I got my ITA...do I need to go to PNP application and decline it? ( haven't submit- just accept it.... )

Thanks a lot.
1) Yes
2) Can't understand your question
3) I think past 10 years of address and work history are suffice.
4) If you want to proceed with the OINP, you need to decline the ITA and submit that to OINP to process your OINP application. In case, if you decide to proceed with the ITA through Express entry, you have to "withdraw" your OINP application and email them that you are proceeding with the direct ITA and withdrawing your OINP application. If your application is into "Assessment Stage", then your 1500 CAD won't be refunded. ( Read OINP official guide)
