Spotted at Tim Hortons on Wentworth St, Oshawa today around 5pm, you said hey to a guy who was clearly in a rush and had to leave quickly. If this was you, I’m kicking myself for not staying longer. Would love to actually chat!
I’m trying to get my Indian Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) through BLS for my Express Entry PR application. No appointments are available at Toronto, Brampton, or Mississauga locations so I’m going for a walk-in.
I’ve seen people suggest arriving as early as 6 AM even though the office opens at 8 AM. I’m planning to go tomorrow (Monday) but I’ve read that Mondays tend to be busy since it’s the first weekday after the weekend, and Saturdays are always the worst.
For those who’ve done a BLS walk-in which day worked best for you and what time did you actually show up? Did getting there at 6 AM make a real difference or is 7-7:30 AM early enough?
Any advice from people who’ve been through this recently would be really helpful!
Just created my Express Entry profile today under CEC stream. When adding my Canadian Masters degree, the DLI number field accepted “Yes” as a valid input without any validation error clearly a bug in the system.
Now my Canadian education points aren’t reflecting in my CRS score breakdown. My calculator estimated 512 but profile is showing 483 and I can’t see my Masters being counted separately as Canadian education.
Has anyone else experienced this DLI field bug? Did manually entering the correct DLI number fix the score? How long did it take to reflect?
