Good morning good people. Please am making this enquiry for a friend. She evaluated her pharmacy credentials through Wes instead of PEBC. Can she enter the pool with that? And then when the PEBC comes, do an update? Thanks for ur kind responses.
Well about the updating part, I don't know cos it's two different evaluation bodies entirely.
What's her NOC? is her work experience hospital or community pharmacy?
Re: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program-Connect Here Part 3 by ebi12: 9:51am On Dec 22, 2017
Thanks alot.
GlitteringStar:



1. Read this post.

2. You can collect your reference letter(s) before entering the pool. However, for your current job, it is advisable that the reference letter shouldn't be more than three months old.

3. @Cochtrane answered the question in this post.

Thank you!

Hello,
I am only a baby fish in this pond but let me try.

1. Since the founder is writing a reference letter, it should be fine. Let him state it there that the company is no longer in existence and attach proof it was a real company. Also if you have your employment letter, payslips and any other proof please add it. Then he can put his business card if he has one. The letter can be on a plain paper but let it have contact information. Lastly, you should also add an LOE explaining that the company folded up.

2. I have read it here that someone used a letter she had gotten since 2014 so the date on it shouldn't matter since you no longer work there. I dunno if it's OK if the person can post date it for your peace of mind.

3. It means the work you are claiming points for must be one that you were paid, not a volunteer work, and it must have been full time(at least 40hours per week) or if it was part-time then adding all the hours you spent working there must equal 40hours per week x 52 which makes one year. i.e if you worked somewhere as a part-time teacher and only worked 3 days a week. You would need to have worked there like 3 years to claim one full year. The last part means you can't combine different NOCs to make your work experience.You can only pick one NOC eg you worked as a doctor for 1year -NOC A then a manager for 1year-NOC B you can't say you have 2years working experience. This is my interpretation

-Pls correct me if I'm wrong.

So in other words, I can use the two job roles to get the maximum score for my overall CRS score and the two years experience in my current role makes me eligible for PR under the Federal Skilled Workers Program.
Please correct me if am wrong.

elfmann:

Search it.. I personally contributed to the last question. The two-year work experience should be ur primary NOC which is used to ascertain ur eligibility but both count toward ur CRS score. Whether they are of same NOC or not, no problem. The second question, it can be signed and dated anytime.. Pre EE profile, while inside the pool or after getting ITA. For question one, the founder should have a letterhead no matter how dirty or go with plain sheets.

The rule is, NIS will only renew your passport when you have 6 months or less to expiration. Don't know if that rule can be bent when man-know-man is involved, but then, if you know who can bend such rule, then you have little worries as such a person should be able to get you a renewed passport within a day or two.

Hi,
For every work experience of your spouse filled in the EE/PRE-ITA/e-ITA form, you have to submit Letters of employment/reference. There is a space where you will upload all her employment/work reference letter. Not sure about the points issue but very sure about the upload as I am presently uploading my spouse, she'll need to travel for some. If I had know, I wouldn't have put the one outside the state.

Muslimity:


Congratulations, GS and others with the new blessings of IT A and PPR.

Please, I wish someone more experienced about this FSW program to educate if it is required for my spouse who is not a PA to produce letters of employment/reference. Does it mean I will gain more point if she submits experience letters and declare her work experience like I (the Principal Applicant) do?

Thanks for your anticipated guidance.

Still waiting for answers.
Kindly help..

Good morning great people,

(1) For Tax Clearance certificate from FIRS & LIRS, is there a need for a special supporting letter or just the certificates/ statement from this two bodies will help?
Who are they to be addressed to?

(2) If 25% of pension has already been collected, I feel the pension statement of account wont add any value to the POF.

Kindly enlighten me on these 2 issues.

Please do the needful, save your self and more your wife the stress of travelling to get reference letter. Folks (PAs inclusive) have removed work experience after ITA was received and nothing consequential happened. I (as PA) did remove a work experience post ITA and sailed through quite well.

Kindly enlighten me on these 2 issues.
1.) Care to explain why you are uploading tax clearance certificate upfront?. If just to substantiate your work experience claims, the certificates alone will do. You can always address documents to;
Central Intake Office (CIO)
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)
Sydney, Nova Scotia
Canada.

2.) If you have withdrawn the 25%, there's absolutely no need for the Pension statement of account except you want to explain where you get the money from if the 25% is significantly huge and a substantial part of your POF otherwise, keep your documents simple.

Delete everything in the work history, then go to Personal History and fill it there. You may still get an ADR for her references after but its rare.

Thanks for your input. I believe you are right in your first submission below as per spouse's work experience and reference letters outside Canada, not impacting the CRS score of the PA. But I think it is wrong to believe the PA should also remove his/her work experience after ITA is received and nothing consequential will not happen.

When applying for e-APR, will the PA not be required to submit along all other documents the reference letters for all work experiences declared to secure CRS points which qualified him for the ITA in the first place? Please, clarify.

Thanks and regards,

Good afternoon everyone,
Following @mummytutu's advice of entering the pool despite having a low score, I decided to enter.
However, after filling, there is no where I was required to input details of others that will be travelling with me, I could only input my details as PA. Please, is that how it is or there is a place to add them.

I would appreciate, your kind responses.

Note: the profile has been created and my score awarded.

Thanks as I await your responses
