Hi Everyone ,

My NOC is 2172 and my nominee officer replied the below for the additional documents that i have sent .

"I am not satisfied with your reference letter from Cognizant as it does not meet the criteria, as stated in the Nova Scotia Express Entry Guide. You have held multiple positions at Cognizant and the following is not apparent from the reference letter previously submitted.

Please resubmit a new reference letter that clearly explains the above. Only work experience to the date of application (April 24, 2015) will be considered."

Can anyone with the same NOC 2172 who already got their nomination send a sample to adiaditya501@gmail.com .

Kindly help me out its urgent !!!

Hello Experts,

Hope you are are doing well.

I am newbie here and I entered my details in the database.. I am the queue now.. ;)

I sent my NS application on 2nd December, which is received on 8th December. I have few queries as below:

Though have sent my NS Application with valid IELTS score but my IELTS is going to be expired in March. I read somewhere in the thread that the IELTS should be valid at the time of receiving the application at the NS Immigration Office. Also I understand I need to get ready with new IELTS before the previous gets expired.

My question is, in this scenario, will NS process my application or not? I mean, will they ask me the new IELTS results at the time of processing, since the processing time is 5-8 months based on the trend..

Also I seek help of an agent for Express Entry but for NS I did it myself, stating no help was outsourced for NS application. Will that be an issue?

Many thanks to shed some light on this..

Just to keep people updated, we have 2 nomination reports from WhatsApp group. With some exceptions, it seems all March applicants have been nominated already.

Additionally, some May applicants reported receiving pre-AORs. The last of them is from May 12th. There seems to be a significant reduction on the amount of candidates after March indeed!

They should confirm it soon, as they seem to be concluding another batch of nominations today. Don't forget to enter your data on the spreadsheet, so we can keep track of the progress of applications. The links are on my signature.

Hello Skywalker, thank you for your information and I found that your information are always helpful. I am a new applicant and I sent my application on July 6, 2015. It is said that NS add 300 more intakes, is that true? Do you know what's latest nomination number? Becasue I just want to know that if July applicants still have some hope. By the way, actually I am not satisfied with my settlement plan, do you know if they will reject my application directly becasue of my settlement plan or will they give me a chance to re-write it?

Another question is I have an updated IELTS score test pape on handr with the score higher than the previous one, shall I inform NS about it or just wait until they send the AOR to me?

One last question, I didn't sign my son's name in the 100 form because he is only 4 year's old (both my husband and I signed), will it be a risk?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Singapore --> Aug-2013 (5 Days), Sep-2015 (5 Days)
Srilanka --> Jun-2013 (3 Days)

Should I need to mention all these travel histories? Do I need to take Police Clearance for those stay/travel in Nigeria/Egypt/Afghanistan?

Details of Family Member (Page#5)
------------------------------------
3. Family member includes spouse and children only?

Section E – Language (Page#8)
-------------------------------
4. Should I send the original Report (Proof of language test)? Or I can send a copy?

Section G - Education (Page#12)
----------------------------------
5. What is meant by Elementary/primary school? Please mention education year (1-8 or 1-10)?
6. What is meant by Secondary/high school? Please mention education year (9-10 or 11-12)?
7. What is meant by University/college? Is it Higher Secondary (11-12) or Undergraduate (13-16)?

8. Should I include all my work experience (10 Years) and Education history here? or only the history of last 5 years from current date?

13. I have collected the employment letter which includes work history and job descriptions. I am confused with below documents:
- Supporting employment history and documents (Spouse, only if applicable for Nova Scotia Demand Express Entry)
- For Nova Scotia Demand Express Entry, documentation to show work experience match with NOC 2011
14. Can Anyone please share a template of Resume/CV?
