To apply for visa I think your passport must have 6 months validity. I want to try and confirm online

From the document details there’s no passport validity. Try to fill the questionnaire, on the document page, click passport to see if there’s a clause.

I think PR application is different from visit application. If you check under visit der’s no clause. You can apply, update when you’ve the new passport.

Others with experience should pls contribute

Oh wow. So if I have uploaded and submitted the passport and the application , I can still have a chance to update the passport you mean?

If this is possible as you speak, then I don't know what I seem to be waiting for.

You’ll need to get a job with LMIA before you convert to close work permit. LMIA is part of the document required to apply for close work permit.

A little research I made (Canada is like the US in terms of job seeking ) they can allow you seek for a job with a TRV , as a visitor or Tourist , but once you have a job , you have to switch to work permits . The company has to send you LMIA to work, and most times , it's allowed that you can apply inside Canada.

That being said, you need an offer letter to apply for an LMIA ( this usually comes from your employer as well as the contract letter showing how much your salary is) there and then you can apply for a work permit.
Canada wants everything documentary.
That's as far as I know. The experts here can add or debunk. smiley

Thank you, I have filled the application online. I didnt do paper application and have also made the payment of 18usd as you have rightly said. I have printed out the paper for the finger print will make it legible and send it back to them through courier. But my question is that I thought they said they share data with the united states. Because on my profile eligibility is completed, biometrics is also completed and only background verification in progress.
Thank you once again



quote author=queenG2020 post=123213226]Hi,

To obtain your US police certificate, go to this link

https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/more-fbi-services-and-information/identity-history-summary-checks#Online

You are requesting for your identity history summary. Make sure you click on online for faster processing. If you choose by Mail, it will take more than 30 days. For online, it took 7 days when I did mine for my permanent residence application.

Once you open the link, click online ,then you will see all information you need there , I think the processing fee is $18 or so. Then download the FBI printing card , you will find it on the page, print it out and do your fingerprint there. Pls make sure your fingerprint is good and clear because they might reject it. The first one I did was rejected and I applied again which takes another week. You can check on YouTube for proper finger print.

After submitting your application online, you will get an email where to send your fingerprint, something like ATTN: electronic summary, then the FBI address in the US, use courier service to deliver for you. You will get your report in your email within 7 days.

I hope this helps.[/quote]

Egypt air doesn’t require transit visa. If you don’t have stop over in USA or two European countries, u don’t need one.
