Moryn All,

I am tryin to complete my E.E profile. I have both bsc and an mba. But I only sent my mba to Wes for verification jst to save time. My question is dis;

- On the Education History part of E.E do I need to fill in only my Mba since I ll be needn Wes cert number or I should fill in my Bsc too as part of my education history. Note: I did not evaluate or send my Bsc cert for evaluation. Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi, you can fill in your B. Sc but you wont get any points for it since it was not evaluated.

Hi all,
What if I have worked as a shop manager trainee and then as a sales manager. That's two different Nocs. How do I go about it.

Hi, fill in both occupational classes but you can only indicate one on the basis of which your application will be assessed.

Blackbuddy:


Hi, you were rather fortunate that he even agreed to check the system and confirmed that your application was captured. Most times, they just tell people to send an email and end the call. Ofcourse, they take forever to reply the email (one week to six weeks if at all) and it's only to say your application is under review. You could try to get GCMS notes on your file but it takes about 6 weeks to get feedback and it may tell you the same thing you just found out on the phone!
I would say you should just relax and spend this time doing other stuff like researching more about Canadian certifications in your field of work, the province where you will live and generally how you can prepare for the road ahead. That's what I did and it worked out well

Thank you and God bless!

How do i get GCMS notes on my file?

THNXX BLACKBUDDY, RESPONSE WELL APPRECIATED.

Prince Edward Island has opened the preliminary stage for its PNP Express Entry stream. For now, all you can do is to fill a pdf form you will see when you click on that link above and send the filled form to - expressentry@gov.pe.ca, while you await the next step. Kindly note that it is expected that you are already in the EE pool and as such, you will be required to fill in your EE Profile number and Job seeker validation code. The upside to this is that, if you are selected, you get an additional 600points which should significantly boost your chances of being invited to apply for Permanent Residency(infact, its almost sure you will asked to apply for Permanent Residency). However juicy that may sound, you may need to research about the province and determine if you are willing to live there(if they nominate you and you accept, you will have to stay there for 3years before you can move somewhere else).

Wish us the best!

I tried filling the PEI form but im being asked about my Valid Express Entry Profile ID and Job Seeker Validation Code. What are theses and how can i get these codes? Pls reply.

Thank you.

Asking this question suggests you possibly haven't started the process. Your Valid Express Entry Profile ID and Job Seeker Validation Code are the numbers you get after successfully registering for express entry. Kindly visit http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/express/express-entry.asp to find out how to go about it

It doesn't matter, quote the the two NOCs and the period you were employed for the two as long as they fall under the acceptable Skill level O or type A or B. Express Entry is not restricted to certain list of occupations like the old FSW as long as the profession falls under those skill level or type

I registered. This is the mail i was sent after registering. It didnt contain any validation email

Blackbuddy:


Hi, you have already answered your question by highlighting the fact your girlfriend boxed herself into a corner by using her POF instead of keeping strictly for the purpose for which it is intended. Yes, we all have financial challenges and need funds for everyday living but the priority of the FSW application should be upper most in our minds so it's best to leave your POF jeje and solve your financial needs fro other sources until you get your PR visa. Since any bulk inflows or little but rapid credits into her bank account statement now will immediately arouse suspicion, I would suggest fixing the money immediately in fixed deposit and sending the FD certificate to AVO. It's not foolproof but it's what I can advise. Just back it up with prayers. Ofcourse, if anyone has a better solution, you're welcome to try it but take note, time is ticking. All the best.

Thanks so much bro! i will really appreciate. That's exactly what we decided on now..........As it stands now, it a 50-50 chance. And we are hoping on God for the best. Thanks once again!

Thanks Blackbuddy. I'd like to be assessed on my current job as a marketing/sales manager. My only
problem is I just got the job just 5mths ago. Though during my Nysc, I worked as a marketing staff with NTA. I can get a ref letter for that . Do you think i can pass for a marketing/sales manager?

If the message was just sent to you today, it means you just did the registration. Anyway, log in to your MyCIC Account as instructed in the email. When you have been able to log in to your account, scroll down and you will see where you can click that will download a pdf document in which you will find the message they want to pass across to you. There you will know whether you have been accepted into the EE pool or not. If you are accepted, that pdf message will also contain those two codes you are looking for tho, if the Express Entry Number would have already been generated, you will see it beside the account you created.

Pls advice

You have said it yourself, you need at least 1 year full time work experience in an eligible NOC to be considered. If you can get an employment reference letter that says you worked as marketing/sales manager for at least a year, you're good to go.

Thanks black buddy.

Greetings Solomonwis and JesusDway,

I stumbled across this forum and really appreciate the good job you guys are doing over here!!
I am about filling in for the EE, but I want your opinion on this;
I am currently single and an MSc Holder, and will soon be getting married to an undergraduate but I don't know how my future spouse's educational status will affect my CRS even as she doesn't intend to travel to Canada with me.

kindly enlighten me on what effects I should expect on the CRS?

You are not married and your relationship can't be counted for a common law union therefore, you can only apply as a single with just your own details, she can't feature presently. If you however get married during the course of getting the PR, you will only need to notify CIC. It's even better this way cuz if you include her, your points are likely to drop. Meanwhile, I hope you have evaluated your qualification and not just rely on the fact that you have Msc, it's not useful on EE until the evaluation has been done and it's equivalent of a Canadian masters

Thanks a lot JesusDway for your prompt response.

Yes, I have started the evaluation process, waiting for my transcript to be sent to WES.

God bless you!!

Good morning all,
My application was received by the CIO on December 24, 2014 and signed for by a person named "Dan". Till date, i haven't been debited nor application returned. Is it ok if i contact CIO or CIC to enquire about my application? If yes, can someone kindly provide me with their contact phone number(s) and/or email address(es).
Thanks for your prompt response.

I will advise you don't wait for school to send your transcripts to WES, try look for someone who can help you collect it and give it to you while you send by courier, waiting for school can be a long thing as most Nigerian schools aren't known for promptness. Besides, I will also advise that you ask your school to provide an email which WES can contact for verification of your transcript. The verification process will be faster that way and reduce the period the it will take for the evaluation to be ready. If however your school doesn't provide for that, try and have an insider that can help monitor when WES will send for verification and as school responds, they can get it for you by hand so you send it yourself asap, waiting for school like I said might be long thing.

Expediting needed processes at this time may be expedient as i learnt there will be 15 draws for the EE this year(not totally sure but I saw something related), and six has already being done with an interval of at most 3 weeks(others have been 2 weeks). Therefore, it might be good to enter the pool asap for anyone who is interested in the scheme.

Finally, even if your wife to be doesn't want to follow you to Canada, it might be good for her to get the PR, will be easier for her to visit without needing go through the hassles of visa(not very sure how this works though but if it's possible, I think it's a good idea).

You are on the right track. Most times wes sends this verification to the Registrar's email (office if hard copy). Due to our poor attitude to prompt response from this part of the world, it may lie in there for weeks. I'll advice you work with your existing contact, he/she should be able to approach a colleague in the Registry to help follow up with the Registrar. My 2kobo though my experience was with FUNAAB
