What this means is that before nomination you work in an audit firm after nomination you now work in your friend's father's audit company? Hmmmmm

vickyehi:

That sounds like a good plan however, note that to continue to maintain her PR status, she must be physically present in canada for 3yrs in the ist 5yr period to be eligible for renewal of pr status or application for citizenship.

henryuzor:

Thanks for your response my good friend.... But I have not created a profile yet, I am preparing for my ielts test next month,and also expecting my WES evaluation results .. I just want to get all my documents ready,so I don't start running helter skelter when eventually create my profile and get my ITA

henryuzor:

Thanks for this info...i have finally decided to apply alone after checking that my CRS will be 436 with ielts score of LRSW-8777,and it could even rise to 445 if I perform better in the ielts.
So the plan is for my wife to visit with the kids as often as possible,and I am optimistic that they will easily get a visitors visa since she has a good job with an oil firm.
Thanks once again

Dear all, please concerning the work experience,i work with an audit firm and my boss is somehow...#village people, so I cannot even entertain the idea or thought of getting a reference letter from him.
However, I have a friend whose father owns an audit firm,and has agreed to write the reference letter for my work experience....
i want to inquire if I get the reference letter in the prescribed cic format including employment letter, will it suffice??....i hope stuffs like payslip and statement of salary account would not be needed also
Thanks all as I anticipate your prompt responses

Haba na, this is a public forum, we cant tell who is who here. Mind what you post, it informs the perception these CIC folks have of us. Those who have been requested to appear for Interview by CIC are having a hard time even when they are telling the truth, because they take everything we submit and say with a pinch of salt. If you have questions like this, use a pm.

You may argue that you have a genuine work experience but it doesnt make what you intend doing any less fraudulent, so be cautious. If you end up being among those who get issued ADR and even have their applications sent to special units or called upon for interviews, you may not be able to make a convincing case. Please lets be guided. Our image as Nigerians is our collective responsibility.

I do understand that you may be out of options but you should at least be discrete about it. For me, I wouldnt advise you lie about your experience. Lies are sometimes expensive and difficult to maintain. Lets not forget that our PR and citizenship can be revoked if at anytime it is discovered you lied in the process of your applications, it rarely happens doesnt mean it can't. Since you already have the experience, approach your boss. Tell him you are applying for a Visa, dont state what type of visa. You can even say its a visit visa and you need to show that you work so they know you have something to return to; Its better you lie to your boss sef than to CIC.

The choice is yours, but remember, it will be difficult (time, energy and cost consuming) to sponsor her later.

Walegy:
After one has been sent a letter of advice to apply(LAA) can one still edit his Express Entry should one write another ielts or change company?

henryuzor:

I don't have any other option o... She is not ready or willing to immigrate at the moment because of her job... #fear of the unknown#,and i understand because it is not easy to leave a job that pays more than half a million monthly and with better career prospects.
Also the kids are still young, the boy is 4 and the girl is 1,so I think it's better i go alone to better my own career prospects and then we can figure out the rest later

ysteph:
If you apply alone, just get your response to the question ''why is your spouse not immigrating'' ready.
The question comes post ITA.

henryuzor:

Thankd for the info my friend.... Any ideas on what will be a good enough response to the question
I am thinking telling the truth that she has a better job,and we have decided that I go first and and settle down very well,then she can now join me with the kids later.

IMO, why don't you apply for the whole family? Then your wife and kids could visit or land for a week or two before their medical expires. In this case, you save yourself the stress of sponsoring your spouse later.
With that done, she could visit anytime.

[color=#990000]Nothing is better than the truth..

ysteph:
That's a valid reason. However, i do not think the space will be enough for that. You may write the longer explanation in your LOE.

ysteph:
If you apply (LAA) and its granted you'll have 600 points so changing ielts score isn't too necessary.
However, before then, i believe you can edit your profile with things like IELTS.
As for company, do you mean change the name of your employer? If yes, then that's not possible.
Already you've said you've worked with xyz for 123 no. of years, how then can you change the company again.
Look if this is because your employers wont give you reference letter, i'll say search this thread. Part 3 precisely, people have explained what they did when they couldnt get reference letter from their employers.

Obi1conte:

Ok thanks so very much for the clarification. But if you still do not mind me asking, how does one combine two gift deed into one especially if they are from two different family members.

masrapido:


Do you know of anyone who used this reason (spouse has a good job and thus isn't ready to immigrate) and still got PR? Back in 2016 when I first started this process, I was told by an agent that your VO might be hesitant to give you the PR since it will be interpreted as if you only want the PR status as a back-up and you will leave Canada whenever things get tough since you still have such a strong tie back home.
Since I came on this forum, I have learnt to take agents' views with a pinch of salt, but I would still like to know what the consensus on this is. Thanks.

Julie2018:
Hello all,

Good morning.

Please I have just been asked to explain a particular transaction from my POF.
"NEFT FROM UNIFIED PAYMENT/POS TRANSACTION".
Please does any one have a good idea of how I can appropriately go about the explanation.

Thanks for your assistance in advance.
