Click on the "i" or "?" (Information button) by each item on your document checklist, it contains what needs to be uploaded.
What I can remember below (it is a personalized checklist, so you may not have some of this):

Work experience: merge reference letter(s) (and other document you have as proof) for the job(s) you claimed point for.

Travel document: upload your international passport

Proof of marital status: merge marriage ceritificate, affidavit/change of name document (if any)

Medicals- upload medical information sheet

Police certificate- merge the PCC itself and the other 2pages containing your fingerprint. Include PCC for other countries you have stayed for a cummulative of 6months or longer since you are 18years of age

Proof of funds: merge your bank letter+ SOA/fixed deposit certificate/treasury bills + gift deed/proof of sales of property (this largely depends on what you are using as POF)

Etc...I believe you get the gist now. Check page 0 for more.

for proof of work experience, if your case is as straight as the crow flies, a reference letter that stated your annual pay is enough. but if you hve your payslips, you could include it. to do this, scan the pay slips for say the last 6months at that job, then merge it in a single pdf with your reference letter and upload to the work experience placeholder.

What if I only have payslips available to me. should I attach for the whole duration of my employment in addition to the reference letter? I am using past experience and I already got my reference letter

If you feel that’s okay for you, don’t hesitate. I printed 2 years payslips. Don’t forget employment letter, confirmation letter, if you have job duties add it. If you were in a project, print the mail and add it. Add every relevant document to support your application. Trust me you don’t want your application to be delayed.

There are experience people on this forum here and they know what I am saying is raw TRUTH.

I think it will be unfair of me to read that reference letter is sufficient enough for A11.2 (Eligibility) and I won’t say anything. What I have come to understand in this journey is that if you approach it with a lazy attitude, there are some VOs that will address your laziness.

I keep repeating - you don’t want to go through the emotional trauma of not seeing any significant movement in your application and when you send a mail, the response is that you should minimize communication. Canadians are subtle with insult. Trust me, you don’t want to experience that. You don’t want to be on the phone and a CPC agent is telling you that he/she cannot see your file and your file is wide open on their computer screen.

Some people are fortunate, but not all will be. Save yourself that trouble of worries, less sleep, lack of concentration, unnecessary anger and package your application like a professional.

I don't know understand what the argument over reference letter is all about. I believe if you get a reference letter in CIC format, you can submit only that.

However, if you fill that your company information is not readily available on internet. You can add other information to back your claims. Its not compulsory.

I submitted only reference letter, I don't have pay slips, my employment letters won't make any difference. I simply tried to keep my application as simple as possible. These VOs have accessed thousands of applications, so nothing is new to them. But I believe every document you submit to them must be scrutinized... That might be another reason some files are sent to London.

My file is at Ottawa and am currently awaiting PPR. AOR October 9

Did you say EFCC, Ok, na IRCC. Abeg make una no use laugh kee me. @Boss 13, abeg why will one need to try soooo hard to prove a genuine work experience? Ayam not understanding again o...

It is your duty to prove that you work or worked in an Organisation and not the VO. A genuine work experience is relative. It is relative because to someone who understands your work environment, he/she will be able to relate properly, but for someone who doesn’t understand your work environment- how do you prove that your work experience is genuine? You have to be objective as possible.

I have a family friend who applied last year SINP PNP. SINP approved the nomination. However, the application is still stuck with London for over a year. This family friend has given up. I know of someone else that was asked to go and get the original business registration of the company where she works. She is not even the owner of the company.

A11.2 Eligibility is very important. You must provide sufficient documents for both the program assistants and VO to conclude objectively that you worked in your company and your documents are genuine. Hence your reference letter is genuine.

In most cases of dilemma, it is best to over submit documents that can emphasis your status than under submit documents. This will justify the need why your PPR should be issued with less waiting time.

I don’t argue. I tell you TRUTH. Whether you like it or not. I didnt say it to please anybody. I have submitted. I have gotten my PPR and I didn’t experience ADR trauma. What I have said is from other people’s experience. While others are glad they got PPR in record time, some are still stuck waiting for an officer to review their application.

pls house has any one who wrote Ielts on the 14th October in port Harcourt gone for their Trf? if so pls what is the no format like?I have not been able to go for mine as they issue on Wednesdays and Thursdays and since I couldn't go this week it is till next week and I want to create a profile and enter the pool with my score of 434 before next week Wednesday when chances are high there might be a draw. I have been bombarding iqas with emails and their last response was the eca is complete but in the quality assurance stage which must be done before issuance.I have a hunch I will get it b4 Wednesday enabling me to create a profile with my eca no.Thanks for your anticipated response.pls the format is not limited to those who wrote in ph only as I only stated it because if there is anyone my projection will be more accurate since the city is included in the trf no.

@nnekdre

Caveat: This is solely for educational purposes.

Typically it takes about a week after the IELTS online result has been released to receive TRF of your IELTS. You may be in need of your TRF number before then, here is how you could formulate yours.

TRF number is 18 characters long, I would take a sample and explain how it is formed

lets look at this TRF Number 15NG005978BUHM050G

This is actually made up of joining 7 distinct groups: 15 + NG + 005978 + BUH + M + 050 + G

15 = last two digits of the year of your exam. all 2017 exam TRF would start with 17
NG = Country code, all exam taken in Nigeria would have NG while those taken in canada would be CA
005978 = candidate number, check the email british council sent you, if yours is 4 digit, add two zeros in front. 5978 = 005978
BUH = first three alphabets of your surname, so for Buhari it is BUH
M= first alphabet of your firstname, so for Muhammadu it is M
050 = last three digit of centre number
G= G for General, A for Academic

Now you would also need TRF date. if you didnt apply for remarking and your results wasnt pulled for quality assurance purposes, your TRF date may be y a day before the online one is released ie 12 days from your exam date, exam date excluded. Though folks have recorded variation in this


I dont work for British council so this isnt law. i and a friend only pulled out our old TRF and tried to decipher the TRF number out. so far, the formular has been consistent

I don’t know what you mean by record time. If you have gotten PPR; good for you. Not all program assistants and Visa officers are that lenient. A11.8 Eligibility is very key, reference letter is not sufficient enough. Reference can be issue on a plain sheet of paper and my grandmother can sign, but to authenticate the reference letter you need other supporting documents. Most people who just provide reference letter end up getting ADRs and then comes the complicated part of tax clearance, 6 months payslips and even CAC business registration, maybe your company website is not functional.

I will also not rule out the fact that your application will first be delayed at CIO - 2 or 3 months before being sent to London instead of Ottawa. London don’t joke. Go and ask people whose files are in London and the emotional trauma they experience daily.

Save yourself that time delay and troubles. Over gather your documents and get your PPR within a short period of time.

My 2cent is for those who are yet to submit. For those who have submitted only reference letter. Go and hold your God and begin to fire prayer for your file not to be delayed.

But all what you have stated is like 98mb and i only have 4mb place holder. Should we raise cse to upload office pictures?
