Dear all,

I understand i am in a serious problem, in my ECA (from CES) form for my post graduate studies (Masters) i had written the tenure from July 2011 to Dec 2013 (two and a half years). This is due to the reason that i was awarded the degree in 2014, and i was not sure about the exact tenure of my studies.

Now this tenure overlaps with my employment in Qatar.

My questions are;

If i change the dates in eAPR they can ask CES for the form i submitted in which the aforementioned tenure is written ..

However the ECA i received from CES is for two years only (i mean i can change the dates, if they dont ask CES about my form)


Please help!

Your concern is that your education dates overlap your employment dates? If so, that is fine if you're outside of Canada. Many people work full-time while completing their degrees.

What's your CRS at the moment? If it barely meets the recent cut off, then you should take the ITA while you can. We won't know for sure for how long Express Entry will stay with this cut off - for all we know, their score cut off will sky rocket to 470s once more
You can make changes to your ECA later on (provided it does not significantly drop your score).

I see, lucky you ;)
Since that extra 600 points will be valid until your nomination expires, then feel free to decline the ITA for now and work on updating your profile (and the corresponding documents).
That way, when you are ready, you can just accept the next coming ITA.

But i can immediately update my profile, my main fear is ...

If CIC asks CES (UoT) for the form i submitted for ECA?
