When should we start preparing the documents?

Once you take a decision of migrating to Canada alone or along with your family, you should be prepared to arrange all the documents in proper formats. This is why most of the applicants hire an ICCRC registered immigration consultancy to prepare and represent the application in CIC. Documentation Experts are professionals in submitting the correct documents at the correct time and format.

What are the major documents at the initial step of Express Entry?

When the process starts majorly only Education documents are required to apply for an applicant’s Education Credential Assessment from the correct assessing body in the format set forth by the said authorities. Each assessing body has its own format of accepting applications that need to be studied thoroughly to be able to get the desired results. A positive ECA report is one of the most important and mandatory documents for taking your process to the next step.

By the time the authorities are assessing your Education documents, you need to start preparing for your IELTS exam and once your preparations are done you can appear for the test which has four modules Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing. Every applicant appearing for the exam is scored out of 10 in every module; this scorecard is once again a very important and mandatory document for proceeding to apply for the Express Entry pool.

With both these documents, you need to keep handy all other documents related to your work experience, any job offer documents, all documents of any direct relative living in Canada, copy of bio pages of passport etc. Once all the details are entered in the Express Entry application you get scores in the Comprehensive Ranking System on the basis of which you are placed in the pool of candidates. These scores are the deciding factor whether you will be getting an Invitation to Apply (ITA) from the Federal Skilled Worker Program or the Provincial Nominee Program.

What are the documents required after getting an ITA?

Invitation to Apply somehow assures you a visa if all the documentation after getting an invite is perfect and flawless. ITA comes with the condition of submitting all the documents within 60 days of receiving an invitation letter. 


Collection of all the documents can be a hectic job and can definitely take you more than two months. To make this process a smooth cakewalk for any applicant, he or she should definitely seek professional guidance from documentation experts affiliated with ICCRC lawyers. Documentation experts are the ones who know the exact formats of documents to be presented in CIC to get a Confirmation of Permanent Residency (COPR) in the easiest possible way. 

 

Let us get a deeper look into what are the major and basic documents required after receiving an ITA: 


To start with I would first like to tell you that all the documents to be uploaded after the ITA should be in PDF format which should be less than 4MB. When you have various documents like the payslips or the bank statement etc. the multiple files need to be merged into one file and then compressed to 4mb and then uploaded in the portal. Majorly the below mentioned are the most important documents required by CIC to take the final decision of granting the visa.


All the documents to proof the six selection factors which helped you claim points in the CRS:


  • Age Document: Passport

  • Education Qualification Document: ECA report from the authorized assessing body

  • Experience Document: Reference letters designed in a set format approved by Canadian authorities, Pay slips, Appointment letters, Promotion Letters, etc. 

  • Language Proficiency Document: IELTS Report

  • Arranged Employment Document: Any Job offer

Why is it still important to hire a Consultant for Documentation?


Here we have tried very hard to give you deep knowledge of how documents need to be arranged and uploaded in CIC but still, there is a huge difference between a beginner's understanding of documents and a professional's understanding of documents. There is no scope of even a minute mistake in the application because the repercussions can cost you your dream of living and work in Canada. A single rejection can ban you for five years which is why it is always suggested to hire the best and the most professional Immigration consultancy to represent your case in IRCC, Canada because they work day and night to bring your dream into a reality.
