Thank you so much

Lorenza:
Yes, you can book medicals ahead for yourself and family seeing how tight getting dates can be.
You will not be able to book biometrics without the BIL and that you get when R10 is complete and medicals passed.
Get your PCC close to when you think you’ll be able to submit.
If you don’t have reference letters from your work place and bank yet, get that.
Get your digital photo sorted. Snap at any studio24 and just get the digital copy (soft copy).
That’s all I can remember for now. All the best!

Thank you so much

Allegory:

You're expecting ITA in the next pnp draw?

Which means your pof and reference letters are already ready.
You can book medicals cos you might not be able to get a close date after ITA. You can't do biometrics until IRCC sends you a letter so that's out of the question. Get the dates of birth of all your siblings and spouse siblings if applicable. This one wasted my time more than i thought it would. Make sure your passports are in order. The other activities are pretty straight forward and won't take more than a day.

Hi guys, please I worked from January 2016 to June 2019 which is 3 years. Oinp work experience should be between 5 years. 5 years ago was 2017. Does it mean I have to start from 2017 and lose points for 3 years? Because 2017 to 2019 is 2 years. I need help from seniors in the house.

People have done this in the past and gotten PR. But these people didn't do it just to target pnp ITA.

Now that so many people are doing it to target pnp who knows whether the VOs would start to see it as misrepresentation. Until some of the people that did this for pnp start getting PPR, I don't think anyone can answer this question for sure.

For now, I still see it as a risk, and imo if you're going to do it make sure you have a reasonable explanation handy (with proof)+ in case of ADR or PFL. E.g employer refused to give you reference letter, experience was unpaid or part time, etc. Just in case.

Thanks for the reply.

Thats not what it means.

Oinp is looking for 1 year in the past 5 years, which means even if your work experience was 2015-2018; You can still get an invite for the 1year that falls inside the past 5 years. Nothing stops you from claiming the older years cos you need that one for your express entry profile.

....also are you 2171 or 2172?....looks like 2172 has a chance of being selected for OINP Tech draw.

Sorry 2171. Typo.

But even if I my experience was 2172 my score is 453 with 1 or 2 year experience or 478 with 3 years. I won’t be picked because oinp goes for 455 & 464

I’ll just wait for the fsw draw sad

I think you should resubmit the document IOM gave you when u did your medical test.

When I applied for spousal open work permit for my wife and her medical test result was still valid, I got a medical test request close to when the visa was approved, I simply sent them d document again and stated I did an upfront medical. I even called the chief nurse in IOM and she told me they uploaded my result. The visa was approved not long after that

Hello house, any one with experience should help out.

I have different NOCs from same organisation but I want to use just one which is 2yrs so that my scores will fall within ONIP scores.
This means I won't me mentioning them when filling pre ITA but will fill them into personal history post ITA.

My question is, will it be termed misinterpretation?

Not misrepresentation in my opinion. I'm so confident of this view that I'll pay your lawyer fees for judicial review if the VO does anyhow grin

So long as you include the other NOCs in personal history even if they are not in WE, I don't think you have a problem. You are not concealing the fact that you have additional years of work experience, you just want to claim points for some and not all. This is for post ITA when you are facing IRCC, I have no idea how OINP actually assess their own nomination applications.

The link below says update all your WE to qualify for a broad range of programs, my interpretation is that if I want to target a particular programme e.g. PNP and not FSW, I can update the barest minimum required to do so e.g. 1yr

https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1125&top=29

But if your heart is doing gbim gbim then wait for FSW which we all hope and pray starts soon.

3rd March 2022 is 2 weeks from now so if you were issued PPR today you wouldn't be able to land before then anyway unless IRCC auto extends it for you, which they have decided not to by asking you to provide remeds

Please I received an ADR to submit updated POF. The problem is that I spent some of the money while waiting.
Is it possible for my husband to send the funds to my account without it being suspicious. (About 2.5m). Thank you

You need to have medical with at least 6 months expiry date. Pls go ahead and do it , your ppr will drop �.

March is just by the corner . . Not enough time for u to send passports for visa stamping and to travel .

I've read people submitting both old and new without informing IRCC e.g. if new passport came today and they get PPR tomorrow. Others say they sent webform and waited.

In these days of 1 month before webform reply, if it ever happened to me, I'd take my chances & send both my old and new passports to VFS and simultaneously send a webform with new passport scan and LOE explaining what I've done. It shouldn't be a big deal because the new passport has the previous passport number, so easy to link both. Hopefully IRCC thinks so too.

Hello @GraciousWords , Thank you for your response to my post.
I rewrote IELTs and now my score is 468.

Previously I had L=8.5, S=8, W=7.5, R=7.5
Now I have L=8,S=7.5, W=7.5, S=7.5

I would give it one more try to reach 465.
Thank you for always!

GraciousWords:


#PersonalOpinion

*OINP NOIs are not random (red)
*What do you have to lose? (apart from the IELTS exam fee)
*Do you have a strategy for which competence you plan to shave off the 6 points in (LRW or S)? I assume you currently have CLB 10 on all except W.
*What alternatives do you have i.e. if you do not go for OINP, what is the plan?

Write a list of pros and cons of "OINP versus "whatever the alternative is", and I think the best option will become a bit clearer.
