Looks like most schools want to hear from the students and gauge their plans before deciding whether to go fully online or not at all.

Two of the 6 schools I applied to lol, Birbeck and Nottingham Trent University sent me mails to do survey and win a chance to win 50 pounds and 100 pounds respectively.

The questions from Birbeck centred on how important is library facilities, how important is online classes, what is my financial capacity, has anyone had corona in my house had corona, have I had it or symptomatic, am I high risk, is one in one teaching important, do I plan to defer, will corona affect my plans to school? etc.

Hi guys. Just to say thank you to everyone who shares information and gives advice here. God bless you.
I applied to some schools from 11th May and gotten admission in 3. And I must say the comments here have been marvellous and will be a deciding factor on where to choose when the time is right.

This is just to say I see you all. And I appreciate the posts on ielts or no ielts, when and how to do proof of funds, choosing schools, scholarships, living costs, University of Kent etc. Even those who posted on wanting Canada and opting for UK for now healed my mind cos i felt somehow about starting student visa process at this juncture in my life.
I have been on canada waka now for 2 years. On 445 since last year but Crs no allow us waka..

Thanks guys. Everybody.

Thanks a lot.
Hopefully scores reduce to a large extent.

7 weeks hmmm. It's quite close. That gives chances for approximately 3 draws.
The new score of 445, does it include hubby's IELTS as well as ECA?
If I was in her shoes, I will decline.
Adding him now post ITA will likely end in rejection. Sponsorship route is no joke. The odds are good that cut-off drops to 445 within the next two draws, infact the odds are good that cut-off drops to 440 this year.
If hubby didn't write IELTS, then he should do that to better the odds.

Thanks Ifeoma. Rest assured everything is being considered carefuly.
Crs pre ita and now is same since eca and ielts have been done by her hubby.

Ifeoma77:
It's only when you have the luxury of high CRS scores that you can take a gamble like that. She's not in that category. As at the time she got the ITA, Her CRS score with husband accompanying is not enough to get ITA. This is what the IRCC agents will calculate. They will not add the ECA for her.

She's exploring all options as you said and I'm assisting with research.
For now, what i seem to have found out is that your crs is recalculated and must be same with crs draw or higher than. If it's lower then application is rejected.
She will contact CIC .

Will let you know how it goes.

Read exception No. B

As i said earlier, if it were me, i will explore any loophole available and write my LOE with proof from Canadian immigration laws.

Thanks.
I will seek clarification from Cic on this tweet i embedded.
I came across one or two instances of people who added spouse post ita. I have asked for details.
We will also send email or tweet to Cic.

Influential101:
How is her case a change in circumstance? Wasn't her husband there pre-ITA?

Adding her spouse will definitely drop her CRS and she can't just add her spouse's ECA and IELTS now to influence her scores and make her eligible.. You can't add anything that contributes to your eligibility after ITA, that's like cheating the system and her application will definitely be rejected. .there are people waiting for their spouse's ECA and IELTS inorder to be eligible and improve their CRS, you think they don't know what they're doing??.

She either goes ahead as unaccompanied or declines the ITA as including her husband reduces her CRS below the cutoff for her round...

This is just my opinion based on experience gained in this journey, as you rightly said, the decision is hers alone..

Cc: Amylew

Yeah. I'm of the same mind as per crs adequacy.
Thank you so much..

Kmgb1:
I agree completely and ive seen it happen for someone 6 months post AOR since CRS points was adequate

Yeah.
We dey start the research asap.
Thanks for the tweet option. Pls do you know the Twitter handle.
At least there is hope.
Thanks.

Kmgb1:
She cant??Im not sure thats totally correct,but i dont have the proof at my fingertips tips..like someone advised,she should do a thorough research or even tweet at them to ask

Thanks lot Ifeoma.
Will do some more research.
Its still post ita.
7 weeks time is birthday.

Ifeoma77:
She can't add him post AOR. She also can't add him and the ECA post ITA. Scores/profile got locked in at ITA. How soon is the birthday?
I think she should decline. 445 will definitely get ITA within the next couple of draws.

Thanks so much for your heartfelt and legally backed advice.
I have screen munched to her asap.
Post ITA with 2 weeks to submit.
7 weeks to birthday.

rosepetraa:
Is she Post ITA or Post AOR?

Since it doesn't change her scores, i think she can give it a try. However, she should read up on her own. Download the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations and digest every line in it. If she decides to add him now, she will need a letter of explanation that is supported by the law and not anyone's opinion. She should assumé she is defending her position in court and présent her position as such.

If it were me, i will research and research and research again before i decline this invitation. I will look for any loophole to explore to add my Hubby.

What i do know is that it will be more difficult to add him after AOR, but since she has not submitted her application...

IMO..

Let your sister weigh her options Well. IRCC gives opportunity for "change in circumstances" The most important thing is that thé change in her circumstance did not reduce her CRS.

This is my opinion...

The décision is hers alone

Hi guys.
Advice needed.
Pls my sis got ITA months back with 445. Unaccompanied because hubby Eca wasn't ready.
Now Eca is ready and she would rather add hubby if it is possible. Score would now be 445 with hubbys ielts and ECA.

Should she decline this invitation and open another?

Is there a way she can add the ECA to her current profile post Ita. Note that scores remain same with what she used to get Ita. Cutoff was 442 and she had 445.

If she submits as unaccompanied, can she add him after submission for a marriage that isn't recent.

Note that rising crs nowadays ia a big consideration. This one that na 450 something we dey see. What if she declines and it doesn't get lower soon. She will lose 5 marks too soon for birthday.

Would $12,700 be good for a single applicant?

I had $12475 as single applicant and i didnt get the mail.

Does anyone have Any idea yet as to reason for the ineligibity?
People with 370 ,380 scores are still found eligible.
Could it be noc? Are nocs going to be removed?
The things is people in same nocs are still in the pool.
Could it be age?
Pls people who got the ineligible status should state their ages.
Someone i know is 35 and got the ineligible mail.
Years of experience?
Pof? But mine and another friends had same pof. Low crs. Less than 400. We still in the pool. Another friend with same noc, higher crs, a year older isn't.
