Will those who have received ITA but not submitted their application also update their EE profiles eith the proof of funds?or do I need to submit my application before July 15th?

sweetoma:
Hello house, update for those waiting for FSW draws to resume like me, they’ve updated the proof of funds requirement for this year which means the draws will be starting soon. Read the link. What do you think ?
CRS is 504

Lagbaja88:
they update pof every year, has nothing to do with draws

sweetoma:


Yes they do that every year at the start of the year (Jan) however they didn’t do so this year January cos they had no intention of doing FSW draws cos of Covid. They just updated it this month clearly because they intend to recommence.

I am open to being corrected.....but....from what I understand:

Nothing is locked at ITA.....except age...... and IRCC had to write a special policy for that.

ITA means they invited you to apply.
AOR means you have actually applied/submitted your application.

At AOR stuff still needs to be valid, including IELTS, ECA, POF etc.......

All these things are still assessed using the scores and things submitted at the time of AOR

Assumptions...



Absolute truth @ bolded
@Denerystormborn Unless you have submitted and received AOR, you need to update POF.

Hello fam,

Please for travel history, I did a road trip to Ghana sometime ago from Nigeria, which is Benin -> Togo -> Ghana, but at each of these countries, my passport was stamped for entry which is 15th June at Benin, Togo and Ghana respectively. I left Ghana 19th and this means my passport was stamped for exit at each of the border. I am confused as to how to fill my travel history.

sweetoma:


Obviously I’m only guessing and making possible/ logical conclusions. I don’t work at IRCC, don’t bite me please. You are probably right and they are updating proof of funds for a program they don’t intend to ever recommence �

The bolded part of your statement is where the assumption comes in. how sure are you that POF wasn't increased for the said reason?

E don do. A girl is allowed to be positive and hopeful.

Teywak:
I'm experiencing it too

Abiodunnn:
i mean.....let anyone believe anything they want to. We have different coping mechanisms. Also, how do we update POF, for those of us who haven't gotten ITA yet?

Kennyace1:
Hi Nairalanders. I will like to know if I can declare myself as self employed in the express entry. I am a self employed fashion designer with 3years+ of experience. Also my business is incorporated with CAC and I have tax documents, business bank account statements and can easily get reference documentation from third party individuals (clients) along with their payment details and invoices. Will this work even if it doesn’t align with my educational background. Thanks in anticipation.

Hello everyone,

I have worked as a call center agent in a microfinance bank for 1yr 5m before going for my masters and I got another job where I work presently as a sales coordinator where I have been working for 1year and 8 months

I had issues recognizing my Noc but I ended up picking 6221 for my current position and 6552 for call center agent experience, After submitting I was ineligible

It was later I discovered that 6552 was under skill type c

While filling the new application it asked if I have
applied before, I picked yes so I was asked to fill my UC identification number and the previous EE profile
My question is that is it advisable to fill it as or should just pick no that I have not applied before
Also I am planning to change the call center Noc to 6314 which is for call center supervisor...

GraciousWords:


Unless you have submitted an application (not profile) for a visitor visa or express entry or other application to IRCC then you have not applied before. Completing an express entry profile is not the same as applying. NOC skill level C is ineligible.

On choosing 6314...... Did you actually perform the functions in that NOC? Can you get a reference letter saying so? What will a VO think about a recent graduate being a supervisor (your 1 yr 5 months
before Masters). Think about it wella, NOC wahala no get part 2.

See here a case of a recent graduate/NYSC claiming a managerial role. The same thinking may apply for supervisor role:

Good evening bosses.

A friend of mine directed me here. I read about the Express Entry and I have a question. You people should help me

1. My dilemma is I want to use my NYSC for the work experience, getting the reference from the secondary school I was posted should not be a problem(I hope), the problem is I was into crypto trading as the same period I was on NYSC and I used my NYSC account for this.

Are the other transactions in the statement going to be a concern for the Officer? (statement for a year is about 9 pages and my NYSC salary-#19800 was nothing compared to the other credits I got) Or do I write a letter explaining why there were other inflows in the account.

Note: I don't intend submitting said account for POF.

You already have a grasp of what is required for self employed, great. This may help further:

Work experience not matching education is not an issue for FSW, see here:
