Hi guys,

I am ready to build my EE profile but I have a previous employer who has stated they will 'never' give me reference because I didn't resign properly. It accounts for 3 years of my 9 years work experience. Do I leave it out completely? Please advice

Mi

The number of years you need to get the highest point for work experience is 6years, so, you can do the math yourself. I actually think it's best you get the letter

shopaker:


Thanks very much. So I should leave my job profile like that for now, or is there any other thing I need to do?

solomonwis:


Yes, you can start applying for jobs. You can set up a job alert in your profile, this will send information to your email once there are jobs matching your profile.

JesusDWay:


Sorry, was out of town and service was somehow where I went to. I guess solomonwis has perfectly answered your question

damkollins:

Some or most of these may be asked but i don't think you should fret if your documents at submission stage is genuine.
Trust me,you need other bother about questions above unless there are grey areas in your application which may be doubtful to even yourself .The most common is to ask for the update of your POF especially if the evidence used at submission stage looks suspicious or unsatisfactory.
Congrats on your PER .
Cheers.

a. police report - when should I apply for a report (is it UK or Nigeria i need a report)
b. proof of funds - CIC shows apprx CD$12k for a single applicant. is this the amount needed consindering I am yet to be married but do i need to include my parents, brothers and sisters as my family.
c. I read about reference letter - what is this about? I am self employed and last work experience was in the UK in 2012.

a) Police certificates
You will need to get police certificates for you and each of your family members who are over 18(the family part is for those who are married or have a common law partner). You must get one from each country or territory where you have lived for six or more consecutive months since the age of 18.
In some countries, it can take a long time to get police certificates. If you did not start the process to get them before you were invited to apply, you should do this right away, so you can submit them before the 60 days are up
b) Since you are not married, then you are a single applicant. You cannot include your parents or siblings, family under CIC means wife and children and as such, the prrof of funds you need is only for you as a single applicant
c) You need six years of related work experience to get the maximum score for points allocated to work experience. The requirement is just one year work experience but for the sake of getting a high score and boost your chances of being selected, you should muster all relevant work experience that you have, which may mean getting the company you worked with in the UK to give you a reference letter that you worked with them for whatever the period is, your position and job duties, the no of hours you work in a week and the annual salary. The reference letter should be on company letterhead with email address, phone number, fax, etc and it should be signed by your supervisor. If you however cant get the letter, you will have to write to them to explain why. Regarding your self-employed details, "you must provide certificate of incorporation of your business or evidence of business ownership, letter of reference from clients, documentation from 3rd party individuals indicating the service provided along with payment details, also evidence of self-employed income. Self declared main duties or affidavits are not sufficient evidence of work experience". The quoted is taken from a sample of the document checklist of required documents to be submitted after one might have been invited to apply for permanent residency but i think you ca take a cue from that.

No, not yet! My visa office is Accra and I hear they are slow. I am actually expecting to hear from them next month based on the numbers I saw on the global spreadsheet. I hope I am right though..

You should send a CSE via this link https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=accra with a scanned copy of the passport bio data page. Endeavour to include the reason for having a new passport ("The old one has no empty/vacant space).

zaliya:


Thank you for your response.
I went to the site and a bit confused.

1) Under File#, the help menu states that the file number starts with a letter (usually B, V, S, G, or W). But mine starts with an E

Pls am awaiting your response.

Thank you

All provinces are best for nursing profession. You need to factor other that are necessary for quick integration into the system.
You need to have the requisite license to practice in your profession.
