Hi guys, I got ITA from Ontario on August 11 and submitted my application on September 12. My status changed to ‘Decision in Progress’ a few days ago signifying my documents have been assessed to be complete. How long does it usually take to get PNP from this time? From what I’m seeing online, some are saying 2 days, others 2 months, which is confusing. Also who else got ITA from Ontario during this period?

check wakanow, expedia, skyscanner. Find flights going to Toronto or Winnipeg. Then local flight from Toronto or bus from Winnipeg.

Hello, I submitted my parent’s passport to Vfs by myself, now I want to pay for one way courier service for pick up
- I called the customer care line, no one is picking up
- I don’t have any submission confirmation slip, I wasn’t given any.
- is the courier written on the website for one passport or a package of multiple passports.
- My elder brother went to pick up the passport today and the refused to give him, said either we do courier or my parents come in person
- There’s no comprehensive method of doing the courier collection on the website

Hello good people!

I'm a first-time international traveller, and I have no idea how to go about booking my flight to Canada from Lagos. I'm due to travel in January and my final destination is Edmonton. With all the airline prices and options available, I need guidance on how to even start.

I've checked SkyScanner, related sites and airlines sites also, but it's a bit difficult to sort through.
I would really appreciate tips and suggestions.

Thank you!

what do you need?

Pls I want to know if one year housejob experience Is enough to start my wife’s PR journey, since as a medical doctor the degree is equivalent to an MSc and she is below 30.

Yes, one year house job is enough if she was paid

Thanks for the swift response, I asked because someone was telling us she needs up to 2yrs or else the point won’t be high after calculating other parameters..

Guys please I am in a fix. I just got an email from Ontario that they want to nominate me but can't find my EE profile. They got a "No longer available for nomination - Others"

They said it could be for any of these reasons;

Received an Invitation to Apply from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC); or
Have a pending nomination from another province or territory; or
Removed Ontario as a province of destination in your Express Entry profile.

Point 1 & 2 don't apply to me and I am sure I picked Ontario as one of the provinces I want to reside in. They said if this is the case, I have to update my profile and choose Ontario but I don't even know how to do this. I have scanned the entire website and can't find a way to check or fix this. For context, this profile is different from the one Ontario sent my ITA to, the previous one expired.

Has anyone else experienced this?

My status now shows "awaiting information" and I have less than 72 hours to fix this, please help.

Did you ever provide ON with your new profile number? They may be trying to nominate on the expired profile that’s no longer valid. Send them your new profile details via their email if they don’t already have it

Download the EgyptAir, Ethiopian Airways, and KLM apps, and search for flights from Lagos to Edmonton. Compare the prices.

Flight tickets for the end of the year and early January are actually more expensive.

Many airlines price their tickets in USD, so you might have to fund your dorm account. Alternatively, you can use Wakanow, but their prices are more expensive than if you do it yourself

AyabaS:

Yes I did, it’s the new profile they are saying they can’t nominate me on.

Izen:


Yes I did, it’s the new profile they are saying they can’t nominate me on.

This is not clear. Did you have a case of an expired profile? And when it got expired, did you send the required details to OINP? Or like, in the case of mine your Express Entry profile expired the same day that you were meant to get a nomination?
You saying it is the new profile they said they can't nominate is what is confusing to me.

Izen:


Yes I did, it’s the new profile they are saying they can’t nominate me on.

I can see you did send them the details. Normally they are meant to transfer the nomination to the new profile since you have given them the details of the EE numbers and Job bank codes of both the new and old profiles, and also the letter saying the old one got expired.
Still follow up with them. Call them too.

I shared all the details of the expiration in my application and had emailed OINP earlier about it. The reason why I gave that context is to not confuse anyone that is wondering how OINP will send me a NOI in the first place if they can’t access my EE profile.

The person is right with the points thing, but she can still enter the pool while building her points, these days the scores are low for Doctors, 430ish which is not bad.

Yes, I’ve sent them an email explaining the challenge. I have also written IRCC to be sure there’s nothing wrong in their end. I’ll also call to follow up. Thank you.

You will be able to log on only after you get the application received message.

then the UCI will be in the proper format, I had same issues until last week when I got a ghost update and request for my Sons Birth certificate

Good day, how's it going? I read in one of your previous posts that you are a data analyst and you used NOC code 21223, which is for database analysts and administrators. Did you eventually stick with that or change to the one for data scientists, which is 21211?

Remmrem:
Good day all, I am a data analyst and finding it hard to choose the correct NOC code. However, I did some research and most people suggested NOC 21223 (Database analysts and Data administrators) I have checked the requirements and I do not find the job descriptions compatible with mine. Please data analysts who have gone past this stage help a sister.

Hello, how's it going? Did you eventually choose NOC 21223 (database analysts) or NOC 21211 (for data scientist). I am a data analyst and I confused which one is generally accepted for data analyst.

Very true, I have a friend that is less than 30yrs, with 3yrs experience( including her nysc and house job) and had 8 in reading & listening but got 6.5 in writing and 7 in speaking and still her point was just 408 and I wonder why so low….is there any doctor in the house with similar experience?

Her IELTS is leaving so much points on the table. She needs to rewrite. Also she needs to check Medicine as Masters Equivalent. At 30 years, her optimum score is 473. She is definitely throwing away some points somewhere and have missed several draws.

Which one is BSc Pharmacy Certificate?

Is your certificate B.Pharm or PharmD?
And why do you want to use WES?


If you want to claim pharmacist NOC points then you have to use PEBC

chydozkyj:
Hello everyone.

A friend told me that sometimes WES Evaluates Bsc Pharmacy certificate as equivalent to a Masters, please is it true?

Please I need help with my NOC, I got ITA last month. I work as a healthcare Assistant in the UK, so I chose 33102- Nurse Aide as My primary NOC. But I came across another one that seems similar, 44101. I want to be super sure I have the right NOC before submitting my application. Can anyone help?

I just got PNP from Ontario guys. Thanks for all the help.
