Express Entry Documents Checklist for London Applicants

Prepare the right documents before you enter the pool or accept an invitation to apply for permanent residence.

For London applicants who want local professional help, Immigration London can connect you with an Express Entry lawyer or RCIC. Use this checklist to understand what usually needs review before a profile or final PR application.

Documents often needed before a profile

Documents often needed after an invitation

After an invitation to apply, the document list becomes more serious. Applicants may need police certificates, proof of funds, medical exam instructions, employment letters, family documents and evidence supporting every claimed point.

Common document risks

Problems often come from job letters that do not prove duties, inconsistent dates, missing police certificates, expired passports, unclear family information or documents that do not match the profile. These are the issues a professional review can catch before filing.

An Express Entry invitation is time-sensitive. Start document planning before the invitation, not after it arrives.
