Principal travel ID is Nigerian Passport

In your opinion, do you think this would be compulsory? I don't think i will get the Naija passport for him so just want to use the US one.

Please apply and join the pool. Leave out ECA for your wife totally until you get it. Where they ask if it has been assessed, write no and claim no points for it. Whenever she gets her ECa, you can update your information if it will still be necessary.

Perfect advise

Please house, I intend evaluated my transcript through WES, (any other preferred evaluating body suggestion will be appreciated)

1. Should I send them the transcript through my school? Only transcripts sent through schools would be accepted. Make sure it is sealed and stamped across the flap.
2. Can I send them the soft copy of my degree cert and through wat means (email or fax)? Fax them the soft copy once you register or once your transcript reaches them.
3. Can I pay using my naira master card? Thanks. No. You need a dollar denominated card.

I am not sure what bank you are using, but it is quite hectic getting any bank to print six months balance in a letter. It is not impossible, many guys on this platform have done it. I would recommend you just print your 6 months statements, and say in your LOE that that is what you are able to provide to meet their requirements. The only ish would be if there are transactions in there that are "suspect" not because the money is not legit, but because it is not commensurate to your income. If that be the case, kindly explain these inflows in your LOE.

All the best

To those that got married after AOR. Please I have these questions.
1. If I want to upload additional funds for spouse, can I just fix it for three months since my application will be almost three months by then.
2. Am thinking of adding spouse after PPR mail, is that a good strategy? As anyone done this successfully.
3. Like how long will it take to finalise spouse application when added.

Thanks
For people that added after AOR it has prolonged their application don't know if it will be better after PPR. If you are already married I think you need to inform them now.

As your child is a US citizen, he/she doesn't need a visa to enter Canada. So you can upload both passport biodata pages but you won't be sending the child's passport for visa stamping when you get PPR because the child is already a citizen of a visa-free country (US). It's same with my daughter.

Thanks a lot @Happylassy. The funds for the FTD will be available post ITA through a wire transfer and explaining that lump sum might be a problem if I print full account statements. So I was thinking a bank letter accompanying the deposit certificate and probably an LOE would suffice?

Hello fam,

Please does any one know if someone can evaluate their degree (in Dentistry) with IQAS, just for evaluation to meet the EE requirements and not necessarily to practice in Canada. Pls any kind advice or suggestion is welcome.

I inquired from a Zenith Bank staff and learned that indeed, ED's approval is required for references in favour of embassies that are outside the country. In addition, his employer would have to make that request being a salary account.

The way out is for your hubby to request that the letter should be addressed to the Canadian High Commission at Anifowose. I confirmed that a contemporary of mine used same to secure Ontario nomination recently.

Is your bank willng to supply this letter with your balances? I would advise you explain the lump sum. Many people have done the gift deed route for PoF. You might want to research into that. Thinking about it, the inflow will still raise a red flag because the balance on Month submission will be significantly different from the month pre submission. CIC will still wonder where the money came from. Please dont give your self sleepless nights, make sure your paper trail is air tight.

If I were you, I will get a gift deed for the inflow. Or sell an asset to show the inflow.

Experienced contributors please weigh in!

Visa is not required for visiting up to 6 months only. For pendant residency, processing still required. In my own case, I used their US passports as the principal ID

I got married 10 days after AOR, and upgraded my application . Aor to ppr was 135 days. Maybe i could have spent less though if i had remained single.

If this is valid, then you should be able to pay using your naira card. However, I believe the increase in limit should be general than individual specific as I am yet to receive any such notice on my naira accounts.
As mentioned earlier, you can pay using a dollar card should the payment not go through on your naira card.

Hi All,

Can anyone shed light on how to get Transcript for WES from OAU ife. I looked at the ETX-NG website, but it seems they only deal with Transcript request from inside Nigeria.

Any pointers or help will be appreciated.

Don't use that link at all, its a complete waste of time, trust me. I didn't know and got stuck in it, till now almost a month after paying for verification, the request is yet to be actioned despite several follow ups. Its really annoying.

You need to send someone physically to the Exam and records to do the whole process, get transcript and then follow up for verification unless you want to use IQAS, then, only to get transcript.
just search OAU transcript on this thread, someone once offered contact details for help in this matter.

It is a salary account. What wud u advise pls

Two options:
** Upgrade the account to a personal one.
Get them two references and a current utility bill. Note this process may take a while so better to give zenith references so it can b fastracked.

** Use another bank.

for Q2, go to the registry and get a marriage certificate so you can add her before PPR. Its's easier that way and you both get the PR together.
