Hi kyrie, I would like to get more information about this program. Can I please send u an email?

Kyrie2018:
Just to clarify about Lakehead university.

*Most universities who offer the accelerated BSN will require you pass the prerequisites as part of their application criteria. For these schools the program would normally run for 2 years.

*Lakehead university offers the prerequisites as part of your first year course, including some other core nursing courses. So, you do not need to write the prerequisites before applying. And the accelerated BSN program is 3years (or 2yrs 8months if you count it that way). I think this is fair because if you include the time you need to study for and write the prerequisites before applying to those schools that run the program for 2 years then it adds up.

*To get exemption for the prerequisites, you need to submit your course description from your previous studies. I submitted this and got exemption for statistics. I know someone who got exemption for psychology too. So, in first year I took psychology, anatomy and physiology plus other nursing courses.

* Also, in Lakehead university clinical placement starts from year one whether you're doing the 4yrs degree or accelerated degree. I don't know what is obtainable in other schools.

*The accelerated degree program in Lakehead university is quite intensive. Be ready to STUDY. A lot of students are able to work while going to school, you just have to know your own capabilities and decide how many hours you can sacrifice for work. Also, after your first year you are qualified to work as a PSW ($20.68/hr where I worked).
* About the 10 years timeline, I'm not sure what the conditions are in Lakehead university. But I finished my first degree over 10 years ago and was able to get admission.

thanks so much. i called them and the agent said that i can't make enquiries on that number........please how did u go about yours

Try and call as soon as they’re open or it might be very hard to get through to an agent.

When you’re through to IRCC, don’t click the number for info on the status of your application because it will read out your online profile before giving the option to speak to an agent.

Please, has anyone contacted any of the cic agents via call from nigeria? if yes, please i would appreciate your help with the number. Big thanks.

please can you share the number you used to contact them? thanks and congrats.

I am one of those people that believe so much in Nigeria. Never wanted to leave Nigeria for any western country. Anyway, My Canada journey started in September 2017, when my company first gave indication about dropping people and seeing that the unemployment rate is sky rocketing. When I finished school in 2008,i used to see several job adverts though highly competitive. Nowadays, one needs to fast and pray before a company will advertise, especially for graduate roles. I also don't want my kids to struggle in this country, hence my Canada dream.

Meanwhile, I didn't know that it was possible to remark. I had not joined NL. People say information is power. My people perish because of lack of knowledge.


NOC CHANGE

Got ITA 15th October 2018. Pre-ITA I chose my NOC based on my educational qualifications.(Chemical Engineering) Still a JJC.

But I'm currently working as a mechanical engineer. After I got my reference letter, I decided to change my NOC to mechanical engineering. I got some useful information online, that it's possible to change NOC post ITA.

Anyway, I supported my decision with a detailed letter of explanation.

It was just the holy spirit leading me, I was restless within my spirit until I changed the NOC.

PROOF OF FUNDS

I used only statement of account.
Wrote LOE for a large sum of money deposited into my account.
The money came from my other investment, so I attached the MoU for my investment.
I highlighted in yellow when the initial fund entered my account and when I transferred the cash to the company.


WORK EXPERIENCE

My wonderful manager prepared my reference letter in CIC format. He was a bit disappointed that I want to leave the company.
I attached pay slips for some months in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018.

MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE.

I attached both my church wedding certificate and court wedding certificate. However, I noticed that CIC recorded my court wedding date as the day of marriage. Even though, I did my church wedding first.

ebony9ja:
I have confirmed booking at Qlife clinic that is no longer needed. December 5,2018. Family of 5 . PM if interested.

i have sent u a pm.... Pls reply

As multiple candidates may have 445 CRS points, those who have had a profile in the pool before October 22, 2018 at 14:40:13 UTC were prioritized......Please, does it mean that only those that entered the pool before or on October 22nd were considered?

shege45:
has ur profile been updated? Cus mine hasn’t

No..it won't

Atk1nson:
Pls I need clarification on this. I have a degree in Industrial chemistry, ICAN certification and about 4years experience working in an accounting firm.

Can the difference between my university degree and experience constitute an issue for skilled worker application?

yes, u will be required to provide one. just select NO in the EE profile, then after ITA hubby can include it in your personal history. Hope this helps

cuteyangel:
Please assist. My hubby is the PA. Presently am not working as I recently resigned. Do I need to state my work experience? If I state it, will I be required to provide reference letter?
