Hello guys, I recently completed and passed my medicals on 20th February, I also received the request to pay the RPRF which I have paid as well on 8th February . Does anybody have an idea how long it might take to get the passport request? I applied to the Home Child care Provider scheme.

Good day everyone,

Please I need help and all contributions will be highly appreciated.

A friend received additional document request on the POF submitted and i am clueless on best way to respond. Let me explain what happened.

It's a family of 2. Husband and wide. The POF done was about 17m. They did gift deed for 7m for the wife (who is the PA). Gathered more funds from different sources and put in a mutual funds account. Did attestation to show that the money belongs to both of them.

They submitted the application with wife's SOA showing the transfer of the 7m and the mutual benefit certificate.

Now, they gor a request for SOA of the spouse account. This is where we are confused, we hustled out the balance of 12 in a couple of days and transferred to the husband's account within a space of 1 week. Showing that SOA is risky. Please what other options can we explore. Abeg help, this is important to them

tshtsh:

First of all its not a good idea to game systems as it could make things difficult for the applicant and also make it harder for future applicants from the same country of origin. If the statement of account shows that the funds came in 12 days before submission and disappears after AOR, the applicants risks outright denial. Recall that the average six months balance is usually also requested. Since they have requested for the SOA , they should just submit with no explanation. If the visa officer requires additional information he/she will ask.

semilore12:


Thanks for the response. Sincerely, there was/is no intention to game the system. We are just worried with the intervals the monies came in. The POf was put in the account by the Siblings. The error we made was not doing deeds in the first instance. Instead money was moved into the mutual benefits account. We are just worried how the reviewer will take it since we didn't state the source of funds initially.

tshtsh:

What percentage of the funds are they gifting you ? In canada there is hardly anything like free money outside from parents or someone very close. A cash gift from your boss may get the visa officer to ask questions.

aurorae1:


I don't stay around that area, so hopefully others chime in on accommodation recommendations.
@aurorae1, pls i need the CELPIP materials too, kindly assist me. lawalmusibau@ymail. Com


Thanks


For the exam, there are 2 free tests on the site. After this YouTube is the next best place to be. Hzad Education, Ali Rastegari, the official CELPIP channel and others.
I also have a CELPIP folder on Google Drive that was sent to me. Not sure how I can share it.

Lastly, please how much did you end up paying for the exam?

How do you know? Do you have them?

So for CELPIP past questions, Nairaland will be taken down...
D'accord, no vex.

NuCypher:

If you aren't trying to game the system, then just explain yourself with a letter of explanation. Keep it brief and straight to the point. No unwarranted repetitions. Explain how it is a gift deed and if possible, attach some evidence to proof that. Take the chance to state the source of the fund. Every visa officer will certainly be skeptical how you can raise such balance in a couple of days. If you had it before, why didn't you just attach it in the first place. That's what they'd be thinking. In addition, they'd be looking at your jobs and may not be able to find justification for raising such amount of money in that short time. In fact, typically with issues like POF like this one, it's just straight denial on grounds of insufficient POF, because they'd not expect that you can just raise the balance like that.
In any case, you have the chance to explain yourself and to attach the proofs they are expecting to see. You should know that the visa officer likely knows what has happened, but only giving you the chance to explain yourself. Take it wisely.

This thread has been of great help, I’ve actually opened an IRCC account and I’ve also paid for my IELTS which the exam is scheduled for May 25. I chose that date so that by that time, my WES evaluation would be close to coming out. My challenge now is to pay for WES, please can anyone help me out or put me through it?

Thanks in anticipation

Interesting news.

aurorae1:


Saw a comment on a YouTube video that was posted today, even then I couldn't find any information.
This is a huge surprise.
All reins are tightening.

Enculer2:


It is tightening. I saw some YT Canadian guys posting some very borderline anti-immigrants stuff as well.

Your email is incorrect.

MayorOfEdmonton:
The government spend so much on false asylum claimants…. Most Canadians believe it’s a misuse of tax payers money.
A tourist from a country not at war gets to CBSA and in his first few sentences he claims asylum.
I’d say there will be more “tightening” in the nearest future.

aurorae1:


Oh that's Reddit for me, those dudes are something else...
The truth is we love and want to live in the Canada of our dreams(whatever that may look like)become permanently residents and even citizens of a Canada that's working. If they believe tightening immigration laws and reducing the number of immigrants into their country is the way to preserve that Canada, then all good and well.

We want to leave here for a reason and won't want to see it become like what we left behind.
Laws come and go but hopefully Canada gets back it's former glory and we see these laws relax once again.
