All these people whining about PPR script, just deal with it. They don't owe you anything. The way you complain is even quite off putting. You can't brow beat people into doing anything for you online. People are more likely to not post anything at all if this is the kind of response they get.

You say they asked lots of questions, you see, that's the actual difference, they had to ask the questions to get the responses they wanted, they didn't sit back and wait to be fed automatically by PPR scripts.

There are far more avenues for getting information about express entry than via nairaland. I think the real lazy ones are the ones who want to just sit here and get all their information from just one source. Google is your friend.

ladymarshall:
I used those links to draft mine. Yes it should be stamped and signed. After you draft yours, I can crosscheck via pm

I submitted only reference letter in CIC format and salary certificate.

Ibelieveinme:
Thanks for the prompt response, so meaning the payslips and bank statement will have to be from date of first pay to date of resignation or do i have to randomly submit the monthly payslips

Just received a mail for my EOR. I checked online and there's no change, does this mean that nothing changed or until I receive TRF?

Greetings good people

Good Morning great people,
Been a silent learner on this thread and it has helped me so much. Thank you all.

I sent my certificate and other docs through NIPOST on 21st February, 2019 to IQAS. Whenever I track it on line, it shows "inserted in bag" while Canada post didnt provide any information. Please how do i confirm if it has reached IQAS.

My transcript was sent through DHL and has reached IQAS since March 29th. I appreciate your speedy answers, thank you

topacs:

Please i want to ask a quick question. I want to add my new born after i have gotten the PPR Mail. After several harrassment they have finally sent me the letter of with info on what i need to do and opened up a space on my profile for me to upload documents.

Now my question is after i have uploaded all documents medicals, baby's passport and so on, would i wait for them to get back to me or i just go ahead and continue to send my passport inclusive of baby's own. They gave me 15days which is almost spent and gave me another 30days to submit babys things..i'm just a bit confused on how to know they have gotten all i sent or if i should just go ahead and send my passports for copr after i have done all they said in the letter.

YOU ASKED FOR IT:

FULL GIST

In fact for our PR application photo, we all wore the same fabric, thinking that the VOs will be happy and will give us PPR quickly because we were a happy family…..lol. For where?
POF was via (notarized) gift deed.

ladymarshall:
OMG!!! Just did!!! So so cool

jjohndoe83:

So you got the PPR and didn't tell the house even after you mentioned that a lot depended on it. And you're back with more questions without giving back? Aunty fear God!

waynetemi:
My timeline just to encourage someone:


PPR: 8 Apr 2019
COPR: 24 Apr 2019


Gathering and submission of docs was hitch free. While waiting there were No ADR, no ghost update, nothing. Just silence. Emails and GCSM notes didn't help. i didnt get any updates after medicals passed in Dec 2017 till i was asked to redo my Medicals in 2019. I just had to wait till IRCC had my time.

What did i learn on this journey: PATIENCE

Wish all those waiting all the best. It will surely come, though it may tarry.

EndInPraisess:
Allahu Akbar, Grace found Us!!

In The Past I have always been ‘pro-travel’. My first attempt in this relocation dream was exactly 10 years ago, My mother had filed for me - she was in the US, I can remember going to the US embassy several times, did medicals, DNA and a whole bunch of other stuffs.. I was eventually denied, Oh God! Devastated was an understatement.


Please house. We submitted our passport yesterday, I thought it reflects on ones CIC account

Ecanes:
Just to share a bit and come out of my silent mode....

I want to use this means to thank God for freeing me from IELTS... I wrote it 3 times in all and God answered me by the 3rd time.

ladymarshall:
Wow!!! 1 yr and 4 mnths? No issue, nothing? Thank you so much for sharing. See me yesterday sharping my mouth during a phone conversation with my friend that no application can take a year without something wrong with the application (Adrs, interviews etc). This is really insightful to me. I was preparing my mind for 8 months, I will add 3 months extra

Congratulations. All the best to you.

Hmmm I really don't know but trust me there is a long queue since February that is yet to be attended to for want of booklets both in Lagos and Abeokuta.I believe those will be treated first before this new passport is activated however, it's better you apply now so that it could be issued to you early.
