EXPRESS ENTRY APPLICATION LIFE CYCLE:

A basic summary (P.S. Timelines and order may vary based on country and stream):

1. eAOR - electronic Acknowledgement of Receipt - a templated letter saying that your application is submitted with the application number mentioned (applicants may use this to apply for a BOW Permit, if applicable);

2. Meds Passed - Medicals Pass and file is initially opened to check for R10 satisfaction at the CIO (Central Intake Office);

3. BG IP(1) - Background Check in Progress for the first time - usually happens on the same day your Meds Pass. At this stage they check for all documents and that whether the applicant is not missing any documents. They are not scrutinized at this stage, except for Police Clearance certificate (dates, and period is covered based on your answers from the Personal and Travel History); Additional docs (like Schedule A, Travel History, Family Info, Proof of something, etc.) may be requested at this stage.

4. *Next Step is to conduct a Background Check - NBG (not all applicants see this) - This is usually only when an applicant submits an RCMP report and thus the security check is done later.

5. BG NA - Not Applicable - usually happens between 1-2 months from eAOR. This is where applicants' first phase of A11.1 Eligibility and documents are checked by the CIO. At this stage the agent checks if the points match, are above the round's ITA points, eligibility under the stream is met, points are claimed genuinely and if there are no irregularities in the docs or work exp, NOC, etc. After this the application is sent to the Local Visa Office (LVO) for finalization and second checks.

6. BG IP(2) - Background Check in Progress for the second time - This is the stage wherein the LVO opens the file to check your entire application and confirm the notes and insights from the CIO agent. Eg. proof of funds, letter of employment, if any; This usually happens after all the security, criminality and eligibility is all okay. and at around the 4 months mark from the eAOR.

7. PPR - Passport Request email - Ready for Visa/Demande Finalé - This is the email which every applicant stresses and waits for, it is on this forum also known as The Golden Email. This means the officer is satisfied and has approved your application also has requested your passport (if needed) or photocopy of passport (if from visa-exempt country) along with 2 photos and annex A form, to stamp the Immigrant Visa and issue the CoPR - Confirmation of Permanent Residency (a letter serving proof that you are a PR). It is this letter used for "landing" at the border and in officially becoming a Permanent Resident. This letter is later also used for citizenship application (if applicable).

Hello house, kindly help me with some clarifications. I sent my result to WES for evaluation by courier and it was delivered on 17th January 2018, but WES didn't acknowledge receipt until 19th January 2018.

Even after acknowledging, they said they're working on the result. Up till now, they haven't shown any update let alone send the result back to my school for verification. I learnt that this stage is supposed to be for 2-3 days after which WES will contact my school to verify the result.

I need insights into what could have happened as this delay is confusing to me,help out.
Thanks for your help.

Hello,

I understand your worry. My transcript was sent to WES on 19th Dec and was delivered on the 21st of Dec. WES did not get across to my school until the 4th of January.

You may try contacting them through the "Contact us" page.

I think spouse is fine as spouse should be giving like 16 or 17 points already. The maximum spouse can give is 20. Did spouse evaluate degree? That should add another 8 to 9 depending on level of qualification.
Don't waste 68k because of that.

Goodluck
Yeah spouse adding 18pts for first official language and yes degree was evaluated adding another 10pts.

I may not be able to help much. I paid for ours via transfer and had no issues. Had to calm down to read the instructions well, then followed them to the letter...if the bank said it was wrong, something must have gone wrong from your end. I used GTBank app for it. Try do it online. Cheers!

Relax...Its usually like that for most..they will update it soon. You need to get busy with other things on this journey for the wait (which is inevitable) could wear you out. At your leisure time, you can also reach WES via Facebook. Cheers!

1. Venue and the description to the written tests venue.
2. Venue and the description to the speaking test venue.
3. Facilities i.e whether the venue is conducive for writing the test and most ESPECIALLY, if HEADPHONES are provided for the listening and wether they WORK fine.
4. Affordable hotels around the test venue and the price range?

I wrote in Benin there was no problem what so ever with the venue (protea hotel) and yes we had earphones for the listening test.
