003: Express Entry - Top 5 Reasons Your Application Can Get Refused

In this episode of the Canadian Immigration Podcast, I discuss my top five reasons Express Entry applications are refused.

1. Reference Letters are Deficient
2. Police Clearances are Missing
3. Educational Degrees are not included with ECAs
4. Language Test Results have Expired
5. Proof of Funds Lacking

I also shared some tips for avoiding these common mistakes.

1. Collect all documents before you receive your ITA
2. Consider declining your ITA if your application is not 100% complete prior to filing PR application.

I also spend some time answering some listener questions related to the Express Entry program. Some of the topics covered included:

1. How do I qualify for Express Entry?
2. Can my employer apply for an LMIA that only supports Express Entry?
3. Is it mandatory to have an LMIA to get the 600 Job Offer points.
