It really depends on your interest and your occupation.

Your question isn't clear enough.

Hello house, we have received our PPR mail. However, the passport of my spouse is remaining four months. We’re currently processing passport for my spouse. How do we notify IRCC about the new passport, which will be used for her visa.

Hello, sorry I don't have an answer to your question. Rather, I'd like to ask you a question. Could you assist with the process for obtaining tax clearance? That's the only thing I don't have. I am a caterer.

Thank you. I know right. I have been to FIRS in Lagos and they keep tossing me up and down. To remit monthly VAT is an issue. They keep asking me to write a letter to request for my TIN to be redirected. But my question is, what documents did you submit for the tax clearance ? How much did it cost you? I just have to go back there soon. Thanks again

Is your business registered as a limited liability company or just a business name? If it is the former you'd get tax clearance from firs but if it is the latter your tax clearance will be from the state board of internal revenue

Well, I really don't know what you claim as your occupation in your application, so it may be difficult stating a specific answer for you. And one thing I know, particularly as regards the EE, is that one's work experience counts based on the jobs in demand listed by the IRCC, and I don't think being a business owner is one of them.

However, since you're the owner of the business, and I want to believe that it is Registered, why not just claim that you're an office administrator, and you have been managing the supermarket, as the General Manager, for the number of years that you have been there.

Prepare a payslip, say for six months, to show how much you're being paid every month; prepare a letter of employment, bla bla bla.... A word is enough.

I claimed NOC 0621 for store owners/ supermarket Mangers and so forth because the duties were at par with all that I do. Yes the business is registered as a limited liability Company. I just needed clarification on the reference letters. Like if they must be written in CIC format and also if the company Accountant can write a reference letter for me in CIC format.
Thank you for your response.

Hi Chief,

Don't forget that at the airport, you might have to show "proof that you have enough money to support yourself during your stay in Canada".

That could include statements of accounts, etc.

Declaring such a small amount might invite a more thorough questioning of your finances.

Goodday Everyone,

Thank you.

Boss,

You can start a good life anyway. There are just a lot of filters you need to narrow it down.

Check page 1 for links that might give you more information.

Good day all, trust everyone is doing amazingly well.

I wish to ask a question: “Can I use my master’s degree statement of result together with my transcript to apply for ECA evaluation with WES or any of the service provider for the Canada Express Entry?” I wish to use the statement of result as a supplant for the original certificate (certificate will take 4 months to be issued & I can’t wait).

Thanks as I anticipate a response.
