You still have 59 days or thereabouts to submit your application if you got ITA yesterday May 1. Please try to procure a passport for him ASAP.

Please,i need help concerning this. I got ita on 1st may.while filling the forms afterwards,i was asked if i have a child(as at when i was filling my exp entry profile;i didnt have a child);i picked yes. Next question was 'is the child included in the application?'. I picked yes again. Now,he has a table for his own info. Unfortunately, he doesnt have a passport yet and details of this have been asked.
Please,is it possible to submit without his passport details? I have declined an ita and wish to submit asap.
Please,i need help from anyone. @ifeoma77@topsmamen

Many women on the thread have been in this position. I had to process my hubby's ECA on his behalf. He didn't lift a finger. He eventually grudgingly wrote IELTS. Now he's the one asking how far with our application every week.

omoluabiade:


Spouse isn't particularly keen on this EE thing. I've booked my IELTS and ECA is in process yet spouse has refused to do nothing including renewing expired passport. Me, am bent on this route o and I don't want to apply as spouse non-accompanying because I won't get PCC and medicals. What other option do I have?

Please say a word of prayer for us

According to the Canadian Information Centre for International Credentials "Note that provincial and territorial authorities are generally not set up to issue certificates of qualification to individuals outside Canada. You may find relevant information before your arrival in Canada, but the process might require you to be physically present in order to complete it."

You can see the documents for what each province requires on that same link. Found this with a quick Google search. Take time to research the requirements.

Thanks @amaya21 I want to assess as a Dressmaker and it's provinces that assesses trade certificates

What certificate are you trying to assess? Also, the provinces are not the ones that assess certificates. There are five agencies approved to do this. Please check page 1 for ECA information. Or post a detailed question here.

nkechima:
Thanks a bunch @joo2018. The issue with my certificate is, getting assessed. I have done mail to almost all the provinces across Canada and no response from them.

Please don't mind all the typo errors in the above message. I'm an average English speaker and I understand that i still have to write English Test in other to be fully integrated into whole process.

You can proceed for your study program and begin to process your permanent residency application for Canada while you are there, abi? So while you complete your program as initially planned, you will have the option of moving to Canada on a permanent (and legal) basis afterwards. If you are doing a Master's, more points for you.

For Unical I used this for my husband's degree. https://alumni.unical.edu.ng/web/guest/itranscript (However, we used ICES, not WES, so no need for verification. I don't know if/how they handle the verification that WES usually requires)

No info for Uniuyo

Duakkie:

Hi guys

For someone starting from the scratch, which materials for beginners would be advised
May God grant our efforts with success

If you're in Abuja you can try Institut Francais http://www.institutfrancais-nigeria.com/category/abuja/french-language/adult-classes/

As for whether you can write in 6 months, that totally depends on your dedication to learning the language. It is possible, and has been done, but it depends on what you can put in.

dodokuku:
Hello guys,

I dont know if this has been answered before but im thinking of writing TEF to boost my CRS score, i have a very very basic knowledge of French.

Where would you advice i go to get classes (im in abuja), and will it be possible for me to be ready to write the test 6 months after i start classes?

any advice would really be appreciated.

454 is a decent score either way, assuming everything entered into the CRS calculator was done accurately. You don't need French with this score. Just ensure your upcoming IELTS is at least 8777 if you're the PA.

Brownie1003:
Hello fam, I intend rewriting my ielts and i have a pgd cert in progress. I used d crs to simulate my score and i have 454. I'm thinking of doing French to boost my score because no 1 knws wia wat d drw scores wud be in d future, but i dont know anything about it.

1. How can i prepare for french? Prob a class i can attend to help me so i can write the tef exam. Those that wrote the exam, pls how did u do it? Help a sister biko.
2. I had my baby in us. Pls ll i use her us passport as her ID or i need to get a Nigerian p? because i read a post in part 1 where some1 wrote she ll b using the baby's nigerian p. (Jus planning ahead based on d donkey years it takes to get nigerian p at immigration).

Thank you.

I think it has to be IELTS General...Academic doesn't count for EE

Coolgears:
Guys please i have a question. Can the spouse who is not the primary applicant use IELTS academic to add point to the cars score of primary applicant.

This is a bit dicey. For PNP, there is an expectation of spending at least some time in the province that does the nomination first before you move to another province. There's no hard and fast law, but there is definitely an expectation.

If it is the regular Express Entry, I see no problem in going ahead with EE while on a study permit if you meet the necessary requirements. However, the person is going the PNP route while they are in school in a presumably different province. How will you convince the visa officer of intent to reside in the nominating province? Unless perhaps, the program of study is expected to be complete towards the end of the PNP processing time...

Maybe others should weigh in

danianne:
Good morning. Please I would like to ask, if someone got a study permit and the pnp application he applied for before the study permit is successful, can the person still go ahead with the EE process and apply for permanent residency while studying? Also note that the province the person got the admission is different from the province the person received PNP certificate.

Came accross this useful PNP tracker and I'm sharing here in case it helps anyone considering the PNP route. They have a lot of PNP information in one place. It's not an official CIC site so please always crosscheck information with official channels (CIC website, provincial official websites etc). This is the website: https://moving2canada.com/pnp-canada-live-tracker/

Congratulations. This is really fast! It appears Alberta has sped up. I guess you should be getting ITA with the next batch.

BootyliciousHon:
Hi all, seems I will no longer be needing TEF. Just got a provincial nomination. Bonne chance à tous!

Congratulations!

Full gist coming soon. Madam is in charge of that one

I agree with this. The PNP process is long. By the time you get your 473, Alberta may not have even looked at your file yet. This page on their site was last updated on March 11 https://www.alberta.ca/ainp-processing-inventory.aspx. No processing times are given for the EE stream, but for the Alberta Opportunity Stream they're still working on applications received in November. (Times may be different for EE stream, but it isn't indicated on the page). So please choose wisely.

Jennypharb1:
If you're sure that 473 is sure, maybe hold on and apply through FSW. I believe 473 is quite safe to get ITA in the summer, that's just a few months ahead. For one I think that the FSW process is shorter, there's also the issue of initial provincial restriction under the PNP route, I'm not sure whether you can have more than one application under express entry as well. Either way, weigh your options carefully
