My dear, sorry for the mix up. Dont take all your clothes from Nigeria. You will not need a lot of them.

And Jumpers you can get some from Nija then when you get to Canada you can get more jumpers and winter jacket and other proper clothing for the cold weather.

Thanks

Just be patient. They should respond in a couple of days. If not, you can call them or even resend the docs.
They have been experiencing a huge flow of ECA requests this year.

Many thanks for your response. I will go ahead and pay for mine this evening also.

3. I've HND in Petroleum Eng. & Geology but i've been working in Financial firm with no other qualification.

I will appreciate a response from great people here with their vast expereince.

Thank you

I am really grateful for this information.

yimiton:
You only need to assess your MSc. Even your BSc is not necessary and definitely, your SSCE is not necessary as well. Note that whether you assess both BSc and MSc or only MSc, you'll get the same points in education, so its unnecessary to assess both.

With your HND only, slim chance except you get provincial nomination.
The following factors boost your chance
High qualification, at least msc (or first degree in Canada)
High Ielts score (@ least 8 in listening, 7 in others)
Age (29 and below get you maximum points)
Experience (3 years and above)

If you are deficient in age and qualification, you need a very high ielts score plus experience
With you HND you need at least ,(my permutation)
7.5 in speaking and writing
8.5 in listening
8 in reading
You must not be more than 34, the lesser the better,
Your experience must be one required in the NOC with at least 3 years experience

Hi folks,

In keeping with the celebratory mood of the forum, I'd like to share my own 'small' victory.

I received my OINP Nomination earlier today.
CRS updated to 1008
Primary NOC: 6235
IELTS: LSRW 9, 8.5, 8.5, 7

See timeline below:

EE Created: 06.06.2017
NOI: 09.06.2017
OneKey Reg 13.06.2017
Profile Withdrawn by OINP 28.06.2017...after the 14 day deadline
New Profile Created 02.07.2017
AOR: 03.07.2017
Assessment: 06.07.2017
DIP: 18.07.2017
Nomination: 19.07.17
ITA sitting back for the next draw smiley smiley smiley

​​My advise, if your CRS score is below 410 and you can afford the CAD1,500 OINP fee, by all means go for it!!! Secondly, make sure you submit all requested documents in one go. It makes decision making smooth and reduces processing time. Finally, as you may have noticed in my timeline, I registered the OneKey account and couldn't submit my application within the 14-day deadline, subsequently OINP withdrew that file. I simply created another file and then submitted with LOE stating that I was unable to submit due to incomplete docs.

Wish everyone else waiting for the good news all the best.

Open to answer any questions regarding OINP


Wow! It took less than a month to get OINP.

Good Evening House.

Congrats to all on their journey so far. Please I need advice on how to go about this POF. Here's a brief history.

The first month we had 1/3 of the total funds, while in the second month we had the full fund as stated for a family of 4 which we have maintained till date.

Today we were at the Bank(GTB) to get the CIC letter but they said they don't give CIC letter rather we got a reference letter stating our account numbers, the day it was opened without reflecting the current and average balance all on their letter head and also account statement for the account we are presenting.

Now the first question can we used this as POF and also do we need to explain the influx of money between the first and second month. Although this funds came from relatives how do we explain this.

Secondly the primary applicant birthday is July 22nd and if we do not submit before then we will loss some marks which will take us below the ITA Score. But we still have 42 days to submit as reflected on our form and there is a clause about birthday not affecting ITA. What do you advice in this situation.

Guys a brother need the best way to solve this issue.

Thanks.


Upon receiving ITA, your score is locked as such, the birthday doesn't affect anything. I am not familiar with the 6months thing as such I do not have an appropriate response for that part.

You are fit to apply sir provided you can find a NOC code that fits your job description and your points are high enough to qualify for a draw.

Please permit me to correct your statement. It's been discussed severally here that HND (and ND) gives more points for this purpose than BsC as WES evaluates it as two or more certificates.

To the person that inquired, please use the crs tool provided to calculate your points or better still state your parameters. Age most importantly since you previously provided the others. The fact that you are in a contract role doesn't make you ineligible, what matters is your job description.

All the best.

Wat documents did you provide him with? Did u provide him with an email address to use? I believe u can always create a new profile using a different email address, provided an eAPR has not been submitted with the previous one. Feel free to contact me if u need further guidance.[/quote]

Hahaha. I read this post and it made me laugh. My dear the cold is outta this world oh. Prepare yourself.

Please my 2kobo advice to anyone travelling soon.
Dont pack all your clothes from here. You will need more jumpers and clothes that are a bit thick that keeps you warm otherwise you will have to wear layers of 4 light clothes to get warm. Get some jumpers from here.

The cold easily gets through your head, feet, hands and neck. Always cover these areas. As you land quickly get a good pharmacy to take flu jab.

Avoid too flat shoes during the winter. Wedges are mostly good if you must wear something high. The cold ground can stiffen your leg movement. Booths for male or female is fine.

For most men you don't have to cut your hair too low cos of the cold. And ladies hnmmm. You will have to be in charge of the health of your hair. You cannot be running to the saloon to do a simple hair wash.

You will need to get deep conditioners, conditioning or moisturizing shampoos. This is because the cold bites our Nija hair really bad. Stay away from greasy hair creams, use more of leave in conditioners hair cream, hair serums(as they have repair ingredients and balances moisture and dryness. Get your own hand dryers and bendy rollers. Always do protective hairstyles to prevent minimal damage.

Get tights 80, 100, 150 Denier to wear underJeans trousers, normal trousers and skirts as they will protect your legs from the cold. Get thermal vests and bottoms or even tracksuit set the thick one.

You can carry foodstuffs as far as it is properly wrapped up in a cling film bag. All those using special soaps and creams get enough supplies too. I hope this small info helps. Goodluck to all travelling soon...

Provincial Nomination is a program where a Canadian Province nominates you for permanent resident visa. It results in extra 600 points for you in the Express Entry pool to meet the cut off to be invited to apply for permanent resident visa. I suggest you read up on Express Entry and Provincial Nomination and be familiar with the processes involved.
