Hello from newbie

[vjayaraman]

Hi everyone,

New to the forum and the whole PR process.I just have 2 questions at this point:

1. I booked my IELTS just now- the website says for those applying for Canada PR, “submit proof of application to CIC at test center to get 2 copies of test report form”. I have no such proof at this point because I just started. Anyone encounter this problem?

2. Other than giving the IELTS and applying for WES evaluation, should I be gathering all documents right away to submit after ITA?

Thanks for your time,
VJ

Express Entry application timeline and CRS related questions

It is likely CRS calculator is a bit off and you might score more points since you have significant work experience. Transcripts: I am not sur…

What to do while waiting for IELTS

Hi @fzansari, Please check the response from @anon25417004 on the following post: I would suggest that you start your ECA right away since that will take at least a month. If you have worked in companies before, start reaching out to the HRs of those companies to get experience letters from them. This might take a while depending on how co-operative those companies are. Begin the process for getting police verification done for all countries where you have lived in. In the US, FBI curr…

Thanks Anshul.

I will start working on those documents. About this application proof to CIC to test center- it has me confused. Without IELTS score, I cant start applying.

What’s that? You are supposed to give the IELTS General test; it never asked for any proof from me, just my personal information.

ELC Boston page on IELTS US website had this message. Anyway I emailed the center administrator that a proof is not required and I can even request an additional copy at no cost. Still don’t know why they have that message!
