Your 60-Day Sprint After Receiving an ITA
Receiving your Invitation to Apply (ITA) is the most exciting step, but the work is just beginning. You now have a strict 60-day window to submit your complete application.
Your Checklist
- Day 1-5: Accept the invitation and double-check your profile details. Ensure everything is still accurate and updated.
- Day 6-15: Book your medical exam immediately. Slots fill up fast, and you need the e-medical information sheet for your submission.
- Day 16-30: Collect your police certificates (PCCs). If you spent more than 6 months in a foreign country after age 18, you need a PCC from there.
- Day 31-45: Gather all digital documents: passports, job reference letters, education proof, and bank certificates.
- Day 46-60: Carefully upload everything, pay the fees (including RPRF), and submit your application well before the deadline.
⚠️ Important
If you miss the 60-day deadline, your ITA will expire, and you will have to re-enter the pool. Missing information is the leading cause of rejection at this stage.
