Thank you. Also, how easy is it gonna be to pass TEF in 6 months, as a beginner? Im very determined cos this 557 score is alarming. My CRS should hit 496 by my 3rd year work anniversary in 9 months, but i'm also looking for ways to improve it all the same. Ideas please, I'm very (sorta) desperate

Quoted this because it became this conversation.
Can it be done? YES. On the TEF thread, we have two testimonials of that. But AT WHAT COST?

Writing TEF is not knowing how to say Bonjour, Il fait beau, Merci mille fois etc. One must KNOW French, know it and then know how to write TEF... Those are two different things.
Now being objective you need to get to atleast at high B2/low C1 level to get that coveted 54-72 points(I think)

What are you willing to give? The CEFR says you'll need at least 600 hours of EFFECTIVE learning to achieve this. Where will those hours come from?
I'm sorry but I laugh at those saying 1 hour a day. Ha! It's not about doing it for an hour and dropping it till the next day. It's the entire journey.

Remember TEF has 4 épreuves like IELTS, your reading may be good, what about your writing, what about your speaking? French speakers who had written IELTS and TEF, said that TEF was by far the more difficult of the two and this is for native French speakers. We have been speaking English for a long time and some still flop on IELTS. I see people saying write TEF, learn French, it's not beans.
The exam also doesn't come cheap, TEF at 210k and TCF at 175k,know what you're getting into.

It's good that you're desperate, if you can tunnel that desperation into the biggest form of discipline that you can give. Discipline that will mean your time and your money. Are you willing to get a tutor(full time is better), read French, eat, sleep and wake up with French? Remember those hours have to come from somewhere. Learning French will frustrate you, but that's where you need the discipline.

Honestly 1 hour a day will not cut it, those who did it in 6months had daily classes and read for hours outside of this DAILY. YOU will make up most of your progress. That's where I agree with @olalekan, he has written the exam and knows what he means. If you can't give it your all, then you might as well be lying to yourself about the 6 months. Now as a mother/father with children, and/or a full time job, with negligible free time, do you think you can do it? Immersion should become your middle name.

I will also advice not starting out on your own if the intention is record time, that's a recipe for frustration and haphazard learning. You can start with the alphabets and simple greetings, maybe Duolingo, that's A0-A1 level.
This is not to discourage anybody o, but we must combine hope with reality.
Sorry for my novel�, but that's my 2CAD.

Allegory:

Depending on your application but typically if you did upfront medicals, after biometrics you begin the wait for PPR

Thanks for the update. God bless.

Hello all,
A friend has been trying to make payment for his PR application for a week but keeps getting an error message.
It’s not a card issue because it shows error before the payment details page (after signing the declaration).
So he hasn’t even gotten to the card part.
He has tried clear cache, incognito tab & even downloaded other browsers & still no luck. Also filled the technical issues webform and no response yet.
Time isn’t on their side.

Any advice?


I saw this on the IRCC site. I don't know if this is what your friend is experiencing.

Hello,

A question, the good people;

Wife is a PA with a skilled experience (category A) while husband has an unskilled work experience (with category C). Does this combination fly for the husband to be eligible (under the work experience) or the eligibility mainly depends on the PA for FSW?

Good evening fam.

Please I need your clarification on the below as there's too much confusion due to hearsay.

Can I travel with a less than 6 months valid passport as a PR?

I need you guys to clear my doubts please.

Could take anything from 2 weeks to 2 years or more.
It depends on so many factors. If you have the perfect score or if your noc is needed by provinces, you’ll wait less than someone whose still trying to increase their score or whose noc isn’t in demand

As long as wife is PA, husband’s noc doesn’t matter

Good morning all, please I need your advice. An electrical engineer with proposed CRS score 324. Although considering PNP Saskatchewan with 63 points score.

1) How can I increase my chances or do I submit like that as the occupation is in demand there.
2) Please I also need clarification on the Saskatchewan OID program. Is it easier and better than going through the pool?

Thanks

Congratulations!

Please I received my PPR yesterday. I need help on the best place to send my passport to.

I did my biometrics Dec 21, 2021 at the VFS in Lagos. Can I take my documents there physically or do I have to send it via DHL to their office for transmission to a visa office?

Please I need an urgent response, thank you everyone.
