Hi everyone, I could really use some advice because my application deadline is getting closer and I’m starting to overthink everything.
I received my ITA through a CEC draw about a month ago, and since then I’ve been gathering all my supporting documents and researching nonstop. I’ve gone through Reddit threads, YouTube videos, CanadaVisa, ChatGPT, Gemini, and pretty much every source I could find. Even so, I’m still paranoid that I’m going to miss something or make a mistake because I can’t tell whether my case is actually straightforward or a bit more complicated than average.
For context, I’m single, in my early 30s, and I’ve never had a visa refusal.
Here’s my situation:
I have one year of Canadian work experience, and I already have my reference letter. I also matched my duties to the NOC code and cross-checked that through multiple AIs(ChatGPT, Gemini,nocfinder)
On the foreign work side, I have about 1.8 years of full-time experience with a company in my home country. After that, I continued working for the same company for an equivalent of 1.2 years full time, but during that period my contract changed to contractor/part-time remote at 22.5 hours per week because I had moved to Canada for studies. On top of that, Im also including another year of foreign work experience with a different company back home, also under a contractor-type agreement. In my country, those called “provision of services” contracts are very common.
The only extra document I needed beyond the usual was a police certificate from the U.S. because I lived there for 6 months, and I already have that as well.
Am I overthinking too much or should I really hire a consultant to review my application? Appreciate any feedback!
