Hello my people,

Please see my profile ooo, am worried that Eligibility is still pending

ITA May 9
AOR June 11
Medical passed July 9
IP1 July 9
IP1 still pending
IP2 N/A July 24

I don't think you should be unduly worried. Each application's journey is different. There are June AORs that are still waiting for their medicals to be passed.

The important thing is to get a successful outcome. Keep your mind at rest and hope for the best. Wish you speedy PPR.

Finally guys, I got my IELTS results at BC office today and unfortunately nothing to celebrate at all after 2 attempts. I'm really really deflated right now but I'll keep pushing.

1st Attempt 3/11/16: LRSW 8.5, 6.5, 8.5, 7.5
2nd Attempt 8/07/17: LRSW 8, 6.5, 8, 7.5

Sorry about that. You were very close!

Please keep pushing as you indicated @bolded. Victory is around the corner!

BTW, have you thought about applying for a remark? I think you should consider it if you are confident about what you did.

That doesn't stop you from booking for another test though, IMO....

Dammiehar:
Ok, boss

Welcome Ma'am

Feygbe:
Hello everyone,

Please I need help with the following questions.
1. In the address history, must I list all places lived in, including places travelled to for short periods?

2. In the ID document, do I list my old and new passport?

3. Under education, I have two degrees, a BSc and MD. I only have ECA for the BSc. Do I list both qualifications in education? Or I list only the BSc and then mention the MD in personal history?

Thank you.

1. You can list places that you actually lived and their addresses. Temporary addresses may not matter.

2. Your current valid passport suffices, you don't really need to include expired ones.

3. List both qualifications and support with valid documents by uploading scanned copies of the certificates and also mention them in personal history. Don't forget to include your IELTS result, ECA...

No just mainly the oil. But remember the oil industry creates other side/relevant jobs. That's what people forget. An oil company still needs an accountant for example, or an expert with a fiance degree. They may also need a business analyst as well. You also have to factor in the cost of living. While you're in Toronto chasing a finance or banking job, you're easily paying more taxes and 1 million dollars for a house which would cost 400k max in Alberta for example. Do the math first and take everything into consideration. That's all I'm saying.

Thanks for the insights

maternal:
Its an employees market here. Meaning, there's so much competition here among companies for talent, that a potential employee can sit back and watch companies fight over them. Furthermore, with 6 plus major oil companies here and their lucrative salaries, they drive up the price for skilled worker. Hence why Albertans have the highest per capita salary in the country.

Please, is this applicable to most industries or it's just peculiar to the oil industry? Would appreciate the clarification because what I have read generally is that Ontario is the hub for finance and banking jobs.

superdoll:
So sorry @40manlappy �. It was actually @elfmann. Mine were both full time (MBA and work). Though still hanging in for ECA and Ielts.

It's ok. All the best!

MummyJaygirls:
Does it say (a)"your application is in progress" or (b)"We are processing your background check"?

If it's (a) which is IP1 maybe a month for PPR
If it's (b) which is IP2 between 1day - 2 weeks for PPR

Getting ur application approved after PPR is like 1-4 weeks


The time frame varies from application to application.its all speculations. Just keep praying for favourable result. Cheers!

I think he is talking about awaiting approval for Ontario nomination, not e-APR.

superdoll:
How about someone that did part time MBA?
To i have read somewhere from @40manlappy that job during schooling is regarded as part time.
@tollu please let us know how far u have gone with ur full time job/full time school info on ur profile.

I think the bolded is a case of mistaken identity. Can't recall posting that

Anyway, I did part-time MBA too and I don't think it affected the calculation of my work experience in any way. Yet to come across that issue in respect of Canadian immigration. Maybe for Australian skill assessment....

TheWatcher212:
Thanks bro.

You are welcome

TheWatcher212:
How long did it take DHL to deliver your passport to Accra? What email address did you send this "email" to?

Many thanks.

Two days: Sent on Tuesday afternoon and delivered to Accra on Thursday morning.

TheWatcher212:
Hello great guys, I have a question... Is the fill out of form IM 008 mandatory if nothing has changed about you and you have no dependents traveling with you? Also is there anything else i am missing?

1. Nigerian Passport Document
2. Print out of PPR email.
3. Passport photograph (1 stamped the other unstamped)

Can anyone who has gone past the PPR stage please shed some light?

Many thanks.

*Modified

In theory, form IMM008 is not supposed to be compulsory if your family configuration remains unchanged but the experiences of those ahead of us suggests that it may cause delays in visa issuance. Learned that some have had to raise CSEs in order to send this form eventually.

It is for the above reason that it is usually advisable to submit the form along with other requirements even if your family composition remains unchanged and therefore escape avoidable delay.

In my case, what I did was to write a letter stating that there has been no changes in our family configuration. I "hand-filled" the IMM008 form (unable to fill online) and wrote boldly at the top "no changes in family configuration". Also, on delivery of the passports to Accra, I followed up with an email stating same message. Cheers

No need, found my answer. For future reference, anybody that needs an answer to that my question can check Fusion23's comments. He made a statement about it in passing. Thanks Fusion23 for all your inputs. Very insightful

Fixed

@amokemi, congrats on your visa and COPR, wish you the very best.

"I'm in the express entry pool, with a score of 397 which I believe it's a bit low. I have however gotten a close family friend resident in Manitoba to help with provincial nomination. What documents will he likely need to provide to proof that we are related?"

I'd like to ask a question that seem related to something from your previous post above; My wife's brother recently got married to his Nigerian gf that I believe is a PR/Citizen(either of the two), do you think this counts for additional points for us in the EE pool? My wife is the primary applicant and our estimated score is below 400 too. Thanks for your time.
