Good evening irondome, dupyshoo, zandora, JesusDWay, Slimmsyyetty, Tola73, Etfash, beyunce, hartson, princey83, Gymme, other gurus

We recently applied for Manitoba PNP having received Letter of Advice to Apply (LAA) from the Province.

Few days ago, we both received a mail from New Brunswick inviting us to attend their Information Session in Dubai in respect of their PNP. A friend actually encouraged us to register for the event before we got LAA from Manitoba.

My question is this: considering the financial implications of attending the session in the UAE, do you think it is really worth it to attend when we have already applied for the Manitoba PNP?

NB:Spouse is the primary applicant but we both applied for the New Brunswick Information Session.

Gymme:
Gymme, guru? No pls. Just sharing ideas based on my experience here in Canny.

I would advise you go for the Manitoba application.

LOL @bolded

What are the reasons for the above conclusion? Someone earlier advised that we should not focus on just one province. I just want to broaden my knowledge please.

Yeah...I used IQAS and I hv no regrets whatsoever. It was faster, cheaper and gave a more accurate assessment than WES (in my case)so I'd readily recommend it to anyone except you have a non-uni certificate like ACCA...then I'd suggest you go with WES but if It's a uni cert you want to evaluate say Masters or Bachelors...go right ahead with IQAS.
Goodluck

einsteino:


How do u mean more accurate? Does WES downgrade CGPA or class of degree?

flyboi1:
Please does WES evaluate certificates like ICAN and CIBN?

Gymme:
Yes you need to write a language test like IELTS before you can create an Express Entry profile. You may want to start the process for getting a police report, and ECA report (for your degrees).

dupyshoo:
Hi all,

The journey that started last year May has finally come to an end. We finally landed in Canada yesterday. Glory to God as we are now officially Permanent Residents of Canada. Nothing much was asked except if we have new family members and if we have any criminal record. Even POF was not asked.

Want to wish everyone with their applications still in process all the best. For those that are still awaiting ITA and PNP, God will perfect it and finally for those who are contemplating on starting this Canadian PR journey, please start as soon as you can, you have got nothing much to lose.

I will still be on the forum to answer any questions you may have but I won't be able to answer any job related questions as we are only doing short landing. We will be travelling back home in the next few weeks as we are not planning to move to Canada permanently until the next 2 years.

princey83:
oh..some people misunderstood what i typed. For immigration purposes, IQAS would fly. But for work purposes/licensure/education on arrival, IQAS won't fly outside it's home provinces.

flyboi1:

Please whats the process of getting a police report in lagos. Thanks.

beyunce:


Because of validity issue, your Police certificate should be processed after you receive your ITA. Don't worry it's a simple process and it takes mints/hours. Focus on your ielts and Eca so you can know your CRS score, in other to decide how to proceed next.

All the best.

Gymme:


That is right if you reside in Nigeria only but otherwise, you should get your police certificate immediately you are in the Express Entry pool. Pls read the info on this link:

dupyshoo:
Yeah, it is. Congrats!!



Congrats!!

Gymme:
Oga Princey83 have given the reasons i would give. Manitoba joba lori New Brunswick anyday anytime. Also, it is cost effective.

beyunce:


Because of validity issue, your Police certificate should be processed after you receive your ITA. (I.e if you reside in Nigeria) but if you are currently in another country and have not been in Nigeria since you left, then you can go ahead and start with your police certificate along side ECA and ielts.
it's a simple process and it takes mints/hours if you are in Nigeria, if not you wil need to send your finger prints and passport photograph down to Nigeria and ask a relative/friend to help you with the process at any Nigeria police headquarters.
If you are in Nigeria I suggest you focus on your ielts and Eca to determine your CRS score, in other to decide on your next step to take.

All the best.
