Dear mohdubai!

You dont have to put any number once you select you have not applied before. We have callec CIC and they have confirmed that if you have applied for FSW and you have still not received your UCI number, please answer no in the relevant question.

Great thread.

If anyone could get a definite answer from CIC on how PGWP holders working in Canada have to respond to Job Offer section, it will be helpful to add.

Hi,
While creating the profile in job match , I get two options :
a) Job Match Service
b) My job seeker Account

Which one of these I need to register to ? or shall I do for both ?

Any help is highly appreciated.
