Hello everyone. I learnt one can take the G test after passing G1 test if one has the extract . I would like to know what happens if one fails the G test cos I learnt one can only do it once. Does this mean they have to go for the G2 and wait for a year to attempt again?

I would appreciate a response, thanks a lot in advance
you have to pass the G2 first. Then take the G again. One year wait only applies to those without driving experience from their home country after G1.

Please, I will appreciate your response

I got a visitor visa done by an agent and during the application he filled in my education history that i have Bsc certificate at uniben but this is so untrue although he didn’t submit any certificate to prove that for my application. Now I want to apply for a closed work permit, and the only certificate i have is SSCE, do u think I stand a chance of approval? Due to my previous application of the vv ?

Omo, agents always doing the most.

It's almost 50% of monthly income. It's absurd spending that on rent alone.

Having moved here a few years ago, I have seen rents go up a lot but one good thing is most provinces have rent control. So once you start renting a place it can only go up by a set (usual low) percentage each year.

Dear seniors please help respond if you have an idea.

My friend wants to apply through pr because he is a francophone, but he is scared because he has hepatitis B for over 5 years now. He goes for liver and other checks twice a year and all his organs and everything is fine. Please will he be rejected based on hepatitis?

Please any information on this will be highly appreciated

No, he won't be rejected based on hepatitis B, as long as it doesn't put pressure on the country's healthcare system. Regular checks appear okay. Go to Canada.ca and read up on medical inadmissibility.

Hi guys,
Just putting it out here perhaps I could get a recommendation or some tips.
So I've been here-Edmonton(as PR) for 6months now.I've been self studying cloud computing.I just passed my AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam a few days back.I'm looking forward to writing the Solutions Architect Professional in 2-3months time.I can architect,know how to use some AWS resources and have knowledge about AWS services.

I have abit of experience in Site Reliability Engineering(interned at a Nigerian startup for a couple months) where I setup monitoring for cloud resources using DataDog.I also learned some web development(HTML/CSS/JS) but never to a high degree.Previously,I sold electronics and handled customer software issues for many years(this was a remote position) internationally.I have a BSc in Mining Engineering.Currently,I'm trying to study Python,and will be looking to get a cert in Terraform as well as AWS Solutions Architect Professional in the months ahead.

I am looking for any remote cloud roles even beginner ones to help build experience and handle expenses while gunning for more knowledge.Targeting roles such as Solutions Architect, Cloud Administrator,Cloud Architect,Cloud Support Engineer,Cloud Engineer,SRE.

Thank you for reading.

Please I'll appreciate some advice

I currently have my PR but I plan to land in three months. Should I hold on until I'm in Canada to do my certification in PMP to give myself time to understand the job market there and move accordingly or do you think I should do it here in Nigeria

is the PMP relevant to your current occupation If yes start it immediately.

Guys please I need your clarification.

My wife study permit & student visa expires June next year. The plan is to extend her study permit an additional year to 2025. Can I apply for Spousal Open work permit from Nigeria next year August using her study permit alone after her visa expires? Does she need to apply for student visa extension before I can apply for SOWP?

Your urgent response will be appreciated.

Oga ednut, please do you know how international students are transitioning to PR currently? I heard CEC draws haven't been done for a long time. If that is the case, does it now mean it is no longer a guarantee that people who study here stay back after studies?

If IRCC doesn't conduct specific draws (CEC, PNP, targeted NOCs), that means you are competing with everyone. If you can't, you go home. Nothing was cast on stone..it is crazy. So those with foreign education and provable work experiences should act on those. Learning French and taking the test may be another thing to consider.

the minister came out to say they never promised anyone PR with study visa. There are about 800k students in Canada currently and the quota for economic migrants is like half of the yearly 500k. When you take out outland ITA thats like 120k slots remaining. Some people say they may be working on a pathway for students, nothing concrete yet.
