Hello, Guys!
Question. Do Ph.D. applicants need the English test after getting the nomination in order to get into the express entry?
I am confused, as it was not a requirement for the nomination! Please, someone, help me figuring this out!

I have a question. I received the nomination letter last week. I am now preparing for the paper based application. Do I have to wait for the police clearance before mailing my application package? or I can just mail without it and wait until the officer asks me to provide the police clearance? Thank you!

Hi Hozai

People nominated under the PhD stream cannot apply to express entry. The nomination letter says explicitly "Please note that this nominations is not valid for IRCC express Entry program".

You should apply for the PR with a paper-based, non-express entry application. You do not need English test for that application.

In my case I went to student services, they told me they can provide a verified copy of the degree but not a certified true copy as only a notary can issue those certified true copies. Fortunately in the faculty of law of my university they provide that service. I got it from the faculty of law. Some friends got it from lawyers who provide notarized copies (not every lawyer can do that as far as I know).

Hi

It depends on the country from where you are citizen and if you are living there or abroad. For some countries you are requested to provide the police certificate after you submit your PR application (like Mexico for example), for some other countries you need to included the police certificate together with your PR application (like Iran for example). On the CIC website look for the page "How to get a police certificate" and you will find instructions for each country.

Hi Everyone, I got my confirmation number on May 1st, but when I start to fill the application, I found that I make a mistake for my name. My first name is Bowen and Last name is Xue, but I write my last name Xue in the first name column, and first name Bowen in the last name column. Could I send a request to OINP to correct the name? How long it should update to the correct name in my profile? Will it not affect my application or I need to wait the correct name update and submit my application? Thank you!

You should totally contact OINP, wrong names are bad
