I'm confused.

How is it possible that for some people Eligibility is passed but Criminality in progress and vice versa for some others? Don't they know how to follow a format?

Also, does anybody know what all they check for the "Eligibility" stage?

Good , I guess application was moved quickly because it was already validated for securing the PNP Approval. For non PNP - FSW-O applications , it will be difficult to complete it within 3 months timeline. Congratulations and best of luck for future !!!

I don't think you will get any issues as long as your work experience is legitimate and you have provided all supporting documents to provide your work experience. May be if you throw some more light on the uncertainty you were referring to people will be able to help you out.

You're right, thanks :) One of my work experiences was within an EU traineeship program during my graduate studies. It was paid, full time, and within proper NOC codes and all stated in the letter. But I am not sure if they will count it as a transferrable work experience as it was within my graduate studies. They might consider it as an "internship" and refuse it. The available info on the IRCC website is somehow creating a loophole on the issue.

I recently got married with a canadian during PR application. I informed IRCC with via webform and got following response.

If the newly eligible family member is a spouse, common-law partner or dependent child who is already a permanent resident or Canadian citizen, only a copy of the birth certificate, marriage certificate or proof of common-law relationship and a letter of explanation are required.

I haven't received marriage cert. Yet. It may take more than a month due to covid.
What to write in LOE as they mentioned in response? Please advise.

As long as your EVL confirms that it was a full time / paid job and you were working more than 40 hours per week you are good.

Just advise them via webform that your spouse is Canadian and that due to COVID it will take some time for you to get your marriage certificate, you can then proactively send them a copy of marriage certificate once you get it . They do understand everything is delayed now due to Covid-19 so they’ll for sure understand that

Can you tell me what is the procedure to be followed if the name on passport is updated after getting COPR but the COPR is not yet activated since landing can not be done?

Thanks in advance for your sincere help.
