Please i have a question.

How does IRCC know the right amount I have in my account if not from the SOA I show them?
Because having worked in a bank, I know banks have customer confidentiality. They are never going to reveal if Mr. A has account with them let alone what's in Mr. A's account.

So how do they do it?

I need to prove to someone that's it's not obtainable unless the person is declared WANTED or due to an ACT OF FRAUD.

My question looks stupid but if you know, please clear us because I am sure some of us want to ask but don't know how to.

Make sure your address is same as one on your account. From address to phone number to email. Nothing must change.

Then use a system. Don't use a phone.

In this case you just need to evaluate your highest degree, which is your Masters.
Thanks. Chai! See how I've wasted money that I don't have. I included BSC in WES Application. Also gave out money for BSC transcript application. Let me run and see what amount I can still salvage.

The you MUST evaluate SSCE made me think all Certificate levels are a must.

@kingspaco thanks for your response too.

It's PPR Guys....As usual, long post alert!

My timeline is below ..

Decision to travel:

In 2017, A good friend of mine couldn’t attend my wedding and He promised me he will make it up to me by giving me the best wedding gift ever. As usual, I was just like…story!
He then went on to tell me about the whole express entry thing and said to me that if I just start this process by the time I have my PPR I will acknowledge that this information surpasses all the gifts I will remember getting at my wedding. Lo and behold….He was right!

Although I was not too sure I wanted to relocate cos life was good for us here and I was in the final stages of finishing our own home. So I was always like…will I not live in this house that I spent years building? My wife just said we should do it for our unborn kids so we can give birth to them there. And so the journey began.

1st ECA: IQAS October 2017. I sent my MBA documents to IQAS from the school I did my MBA with in India. This was after I spent 3 months trying to get the school to send the documents to IQAS. December 2017 I got a credit alert of the application fee returned back to my account because they said the school was not in their list of accredited universities.

2nd ECA: WES December 2017 I switched to WES but this time I chose to use my first degree so no stories go dey. With the verification (Nigerian University) wahala I eventually concluded that in July 2018.

IELTS: July 2018 LSRW 8876.5. Applied for remark but it stayed the same. After using the CRS score calculator we realized there was no way we could hit above 440 with me as the PA. Hence my wife became the PA and enrolled for IELTS in the same month. With limited time to prepare and being 7 months pregnant I didn’t think she will pull through. I remember telling her to wee before starting the exam cos she won’t be able to do that during the exam. But, well what can I say...

Her IELTS: December 2018 LSRW 8.5897.5
ECA: This was where UniBen showed us pepper with strike mata it took Eight months to get that one sorted out.

CRS Score: 441
ITA: 22nd August 2018
AOR: 15th September 2018
Long silence
And then the worst happened. We had moved into our home in August and one day on my way back from work I was kidnapped. After the ordeal we moved out of the house and that was the moment when I realized that I had to leave this country. It wasn’t a matter of doing it for the kids anymore. The same house I was clinging to I wasn’t able to live in for up to 3 months.

GCMS notes: January 2018 (looked ok, sent an email to ralph and he told us that nothing had been started)
ADR: March 21st 2019 by this time madam was preggy with baby number 2 and we knew we couldn’t have the baby in Canada. Now we were hoping the PPR will come after the birth of our baby so we can add the new born to our profile.

23rd April: PPR
24th of April: Our baby arrives

We quickly hustled birth certificate and informed Accra about our new born on the same day. We got a response to submit all additional documents for baby within 30days.
We were not sure if we were to expect another PPR for the 4 of us so I delayed this announcement but we just got confirmation that we are to upload the baby’s documents and send all passports to Accra before that date.
I want to thank everyone on this
Thread…I have been a silent reader from the beginningbut I have gained much information from the folks here. Thank you all.

Only a minor correction, you can't change your profile after ITA unless you decline it.

Marula:

Am a newbie but have read a lot on previous threads, this one and CIC website. Yes you can update your profile while still in the pool even after ITA if you want but if update affects your CRS that's where the gbege is. But adding a Masters will actually give you more points, that's a positive update.

Elders correct me if am wrong please.

Good Evening, Please I will like to know if I can do my Medicals before I am invited to apply. Although I haven't been invited but I am hopeful. Can I do my Medicals in Nigeria while my Wife and Son in Sweden do theirs there, will it been ok or I should ask them to come home so we do it together. I am the principal applicant. Does my wife and son also need the Police certificate or just me. Thank you

Please why do you want to leave Sweden for Canada? I used to think the Scandinavian countries(Sweden, Norway, Finland) were more pleasurable to live in when compared to Canada.
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 7 by joo2018: 8:57pm On Apr 29, 2019
2. You can do your medicals separately, in different countries.

3. You, your wife (and if your son is 18yrs and above) will need to do medicals for any country that have stayed in the last 10yrs for at least 6 months in a row. See this.

Yes you can, it's called 'upfront' medicals. However the validity period is one year so make sure that you're sure to receive ITA in a short while so that you don't have to redo it.

Good evening, please someone confirmed to me that upfront medicals was no longer accepted. How true is this?

There are several factors. From the language barrier to immigration status etc. Scandinavian countries are very pleasurable to live in but in this case, Canada would give them something Sweden hasn't done yet.. Citizenship. (I'm assuming that's the case with the OP)

Thank you very much to the reply.So my wife and I can sit for the IELTS exam with me as the primary applicant? So also do I need to evaluate her own credentials too alongside mine. Thanks
pejuhazel:

Use the CRS tool to simulate your scores, for your education you select two or more certificates and for your IELTS you use 8777 for LSRW. If your spouse has a degree you can include it as well as IELTS. A score above 450 gives you a good chance.
Also I will advice you include your wife in your application.
