FAQs FOR EXPRESS ENTRY!

[sumitpal22]

Hi everyone,

My question is regarding the initial province/state selection we have to make while creating the profile. Will that help in determining what province will we be eligible to apply under PNP? If that is the case, will selecting a particular province hurt my chances towards PNP for other provinces?

Also how big of an impact will that have in the employers picking up my profile, for e.g.: if i choose Ontario, will it only allow the employers from that province to consider my case?

Thanks!

DONT WORRY, IT WONT MAKE ANY IMPACT, IF YOU ARE ALREADY NOMINATED IN ANY PROVINCE THEN MAY BE IT COULD MAKE AN IMPACT.
I SUGGEST YOU SELECT ALL PROVINCES!

I had no idea about this ECA report, that is very annoying as I have hard copies of my Diploma's and certificates.

I dont want to pay more money for some kind of background check..

ECA REPORT IS MUST UNLESS YOU HAVE A CANAIAN EDUCATION/DEGREE!

But it does not let you chose more than one province. There is no option as All provinces

I THINK THE OPTION IS AT THE LAST. I SELECTED IT MYSELF!
