FamilyRe: Why Do Married Men Suddenly Lose Interest In Their Wives and try to avoid her? by aurorae1: 9:25pm On Jun 14, 2023
Jman06:
Because women go out of shape once married due to excessive eating and laziness that hinder them from exercising and keeping fit.

Before you know it they become potbellied, oversized and unattractive. So it is natural for the man to lose interest in her.
I hope all the dudes have become Dwayne Johnson... Yikes.

CLB 7 = 62 CRS points plus a possible 6 extra from CLB 9 in CO and CE.......what's not to love and sacrifice one year of one's life for!

Before it was 30 bonus CRS points, then 50...maybe if they up it to 70 it may become more attractive to English speakers.

Bill C-19 is here!

The new NOC- based draws are here

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/ministerial-instructions/express-entry-rounds.html

French still remains relevant. If you fall outside of any of those categories, have a low score and are still on the fence about french, here's a sign to start or to continue.

The current CRS based system is still in place and will run alongside the new system.

Looks like the category based draws will be added to existing draws. So in the same way they have CEC only or PNP only they may have category based but it seems the All Program draws will also continue alongside as happens currently.

Hi everyone,
I recently started learning french, I have a tutor but I feel learning is going kinda slow.
I want to write the exam before the end of this year. I need tips on how I can learn the language fast please
In my humble opinion, that "slowness" is needed at the beginning if you just "recently" started.
Before even thinking about TEF/TCF, you MUST first learn french, that means getting used to forming the sounds, hearing it and basically living it as much as you can.
You need to reach a CEFR B1/B2 for that.
But still if you feel your tutor is slow, you can try IEF or the Alliance Française accelerated program.

Scammers not kidnappers. The format is over 30 years old.
I encountered them in 2008 at mushin on my way to ican office . A man pretending to be senegalese who had consignment of laptops and phones. Plus one idiot standing nearby convincing me. He promised me money and gadgets . The so called senegalese was leading us while the other guy was with me at the back. How Senegalese take sabi road lol. As we got to where my bus was loading i quickly crossed road and left them. They are scammers. You would have emptied your account and be asked to go home to bring more. Once you are greedy you go fall
Not only scammers, but kidnappers too. I was in my school uniform in secondary school when a scenario close to this played out... What money did a junior secondary school student have to give them?
May we not remain in their company long enough to find out if they're kidnappers or scammers...

Tadadobe:
Below are the edits of the statistics about how black women have been constantly rejected by white men , who they hitherto worship. Data also show that black women drop a lot of standard once it's a white male in the picture. For a white male, he can be making $34k a year, but as long as it is whiteness, black women wil marry him. But for a black male, he needs to be up in his games, make $200k a year and ridiculously good looking too.

Data also show that black women became pro black after having been used and dumped by white men. That's why you see statement like "black women only want to date black men" "black women enjoy black men". That's just a coping strategy
Y'all twitter zombies will just come online, type anything you like, insulting your own people with lies...

IELTS is for English, else you mean TEF/TCF.
As for the learning time yes, but it depends on how much time you can invest.
As for the last question, I haven't seen anyone use any. So Maybe.

TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Worker Program - Connect Here Part 11 by aurorae1: 3:13pm On Apr 06, 2023
I totally understand the points @icegig and other nairalanders have raised. One need only peruse Reddit and some other Canadian forum to see how (some) Canadians themselves have begun to feel about the country's matters.

I am not in Canada but I can boldly say to anyone wishing for their brothers, sisters and other family members to emigrate, that in order for THEM to enjoy or live the reality YOU'RE living now a certain STANDARD of living has to be maintained. Whether you're an international student, a PR or a citizen, it cuts across board.

BUT this is the government's job and maintaining it starts with having critical, sometimes painful but necessary discourses.
If it means the government reduce immigration numbers for a few years, lower admission rates to DIPLOMA mills, restrict or encourage some professions, reduce or increase certain fees etc to maintain THAT STANDARD then so be it. Canada must do what is best for Canada. It's not emotional or about just YOUR family or just NIGERIANS or being a WITCH etc...lol

Let Canada remain the Canada of our dreams and hopes. It's way too easy for a country's way of life and relative prosperity to begin to deteriorate. We think it could never happen, but never say never in this world. Besides, it's NOT always the immigrant's fault but who usually becomes the proverbial scapegoat when countries start to experience hardships, lifestyle and quality of life deterioration ? The freaking IMMIGRANTS.

That said, this thread is probably not the place for such discourse. People seeking to immigrate will definitely develop unconscious bias against such topics. Let's be honest with ourselves. We as hopefuls may also not be in the best position to argue about this but hopefully we can get to a point that critical and safe arguments can be had without resorting to emotions and feelings.

PPR/COPR ALERT!!! grin (Sorry I'm a bit late)

Timeline below:
Decided that Nigeria was not for me: May 2019
*1st IELTS: August 2019 (I got good scores but didn’t have Masters/extra certificate, so my CRS score was 432 I was hoping to get PNP, but I never got a nomination)
*CRS Score from year 2019 to 2021 = 432
*TCF French exam written: May 2021
*TCF French exam passed: June 2021
*New CRS Score in June 2021 = 500
*1st IELTS expired in August 2021, so I rewrote it in July 2021
*2nd IELTS passed July 2021 (with higher scores than last time)
*New CRS Score in 2021 = 506
*September 2022: Moved to the UK for Masters. Original plan was to do the Msc in Canada after becoming a PR but 1 year Master’s compared to 2 years in Canada is better for me.
*ITA received: 28th September 2022
*Medicals done in London: November 2022
*Submission & AOR: 25th November 2022
*Biometrics in London: 22nd December 2022
*PPR letter received: March 1st 2023
*Passport received by London VFS: March 7th
*Passport/COPR received: March 15th

Extra Notes: I am single and in my late 20s, so I never had issues with losing marks since 2019 when I started the journey.

It’s funny how whenever I tell people my CRS score they think that I was lucky to have had a high score but they forget that I was in the pool for 3 whole years before getting ITA. My EE profile expired 3 times.

This journey is not for the faint-hearted but by the Grace of God, with your hard work and resilience. You will also give your testimony too!!! cheesy

Your TCF result was the first I'd seen of here on nairaland and it certainly turned my eyes towards this lesser known exam.

Bro let be realistic, ircc are giving priority to bilingual, the bilingual are those with high scores together with those with Canadian experience. They are kinda forcing people with below 490 to provincial nomination. It’s as simple as that.
As Ednut said survival... It's competition. When there is a pathway at the beginning a lot of people will flock to it(Student visa and the CEC palava for example) until that becomes somewhat saturated and until the next. It will happen with french too as more people flock to it.

Competition is good for immigration.
It has always been in the plan(from internal memos releases) for more emphasis to be placed on those already in Canada. What this does is make those outside Canada strive harder just to measure up and with the number of people in the pool, it was inevitable.

C'est la vie. Just do whatever you can to increase your points.
