Congrats on your ITA...

1. Pls go ahead with your ITA... Way better than OINP.
2. I am not certain about that. Though I believe it should be valid still, I would advise you check the CIC website and confirm what's allowed.
3. You do not need to state that he has a degree... Just put the details of his degree in personal history only and not education.
4. You need to get your medicals done and uploaded before submitting... The list of physicians on their website are the right ones.
5. A proof of request will suffice, but in this case, I would be advisable to wait till a few days before the expiry of the 90 days... This will show that you waited for sometime.
6. Most people use xe.com ... I plan to do same.
7. I'm your shoes as well... Plan to submit both.

Hope these help!

Good evening everyone, it's my first time on this thread though v been following. I had once created my EE profile in 2015 but it expired early last year without an ITA. I recreated my profile on Feb 20th and as God will have it, i got ITA on the 22nd with a score of 454. I however do have some questions:

1) Is OINP easier than the EE FSWP because I see so many people are interested in it and even though i chose Ontario,i am yet to get a nomination.
2) For ref letters, i had one gotten them in 2014 when i wanted to do the FSWP, can i still use these letters as they have all needed info and i was no longer with any of the companies when i got the letters
3) I put in the profile my hubby's education but stated he has no ECA. With these what do i need to submit as proof of education, will only certificates suffice?
4) I am not clear if we are to go ahead with the medical exam or we would be told when to. If we are, i saw a link of some physician panels with one in Ikeja,are these the right physicians?
5) I had previously lived in the US and i'm in the process of getting US PCC but it states processing time of about 14wks which is more than 90days. Will uploading proof of request suffice or how do i go about this?
6) What rate should be used for calculating the needed funds,black market,official rate or oanda
7) Finally my daughter has both US passport and Nigerian Passport, which do i use for her in the application

Sorry for the bulk of questions....all advice would be highly appreciated

I will advise you withdraw that profile and create a new one... You will definitely get an NOI if your score is above 400... What is your score though, you might just be in line for an ITA. Share...

princessayinke:
Is there any hope of OINP for those that have been in the pool since last year? From the trend it seems that people that recently created their profile are being nominated

I don't think it's advisable to do that cos your IELTS score is a major determinant in the CRS that gets you ITA... I think you should wait really. Wednesday is only a few days away and I believe your case would be an ITA not NOI.

40manlappy:


This may appear to be a "wild thought": Do you think this can work for an expired IELTS? Can one modify IELTS details post-ITA?

Results should be out next week Wednesday though. Just thinking of the OINP quota for 2017

Looping: boldinc

With your score, I will advise you get a re-mark, since you did very well in LRS... However, jumping to 420 might not do you any good as CRS cut-off 'might' not get that low or maybe not anytime soon. It would be good to take advantage of Ontario PNP while it's available.

POF should be 6 months statement of account. You should also get a gift of deed from your dad.

ray78:
Pls who here has requested a remarking of their IELTS score and got an upgrade?I attempted my 2nd IELTS on February 11th and the scores were L8.5 R.8 S 7.5 W6.5 ,which pushed my points CRS from 409 to 420.However i believe if i request for my Wriiting to be re-marked i will get a 7.I also dont understand why the eaminers keep grading Writing low.

Secondly,how long should POF funds be in my account before submitting the statememt?i reckon my dad or uncle will be able to gift me 2 million naira AFTER i have gotten the ITA,hence submitting POF of approx 3 months statement.

Yes... you apply for the Express Entry Stream.

Ehrnie:


My friend is having same issue. I am helping her with her application and I cannot download the NOI letter. Someone who has passed through this, please respond.

Also can someone please confirm that when you get NOI from Ontario, you go to their website and apply for Ontario's Express Entry Human Capital Priorities Stream? It is my understanding that the FSWP (Federal Skills Workers Program) falls under this. I am just being careful not to apply for the wrong scheme post NOI. N.B. My friend got a NOI yesterday via IRCC Express Entry....

That's a tough one... I will initially advise you re-write IELTS... Or maybe share your info with the house and let's see where you do better. Married? Age? Degree? etc...

phoneymoney:

@doopysho, boldinc, 40manlappy and our seniors here, how does one deal with Crs of 340? Any hopes??

I will advise you create a new profile... You will get the NOI from Ontario. You really do not need an agent. It's easy to do yourself...

Afamdi12:
@Temidewale did you get the ITA from EE or OINP sent you the ITA. My score is 406 on the pool and no mail from OINP yet, the account was created in January. My agents has my EE login deets and would not share except my job bank deets. Can I create a new profile myself without their knowledge? Will it cause any harm having two profiles and how many months is the processing time for OINP to give u the nomination certificate if successful after you pay the 1500 cad? Please the house can answer. I am almost frustrated.

In recent times, applications have been moved from AVO to London and hasn't gone beyond 3 months fro PPR... In fact, someone got in about a month.. Following the trend, it should remain the same.

Adufe2016x:
Hello guys. In new on this forum. And I hope to post my testimony soon. I applied for SINP in February, anxiously expecting my nomination approval. And then ITA.......

But I'm worried with the slow processing at AVO. I heard it takes more than a year from ITA to Passport request on an average. Please how true is this? For those that have successfully and recently crossed over to Canny Land, how long did it take you. I wanna plan pregnancy so I'm not stuck. Thanks

Employment is ideal...

coolhayor:
Hello seniors,

Pls for those who have filled the post-ITA forms and gotten PPR. I want to fill my wife's NYSC in her personal details but i am confused whether to put it under government activity or Employment.

I am afraid of misrepresentation. I need help

As dupyshoo said, extend it and imput the details of the new passport post ITA...

Chinnie4Jesus:
dupyshoo, pls I need you to help me with this. My husband's passport has expired, but he is in the process of getting another one. They are saying it could take up to 2weeks or 3weeks. My question is, the id column does not recognize his id anymore because it has expired, can I extend? ( we are hoping to get ITA by the next draw) when we eventually get the new passport, can I edit and put in the correct details on the new passport. This particular position is beyond ones control as the passport office keeps claiming they do not have booklets. Please can you advice me. He is the principal applicant. Thanks... boldinc please can you come in here too.

Payslips are optional and reference letter is sufficient enough for proof of employment...

optionese:
@boldinc ok thank you for this, i would have to chnge my NOCs then , also i have a job experience between 2012- 2014 with no pay slips . money was paid by hand. my employer would gladly give me a reference letter. my question is will they ask for bank statement to proove employment of a letter from that employer is sufficient

It's not really about the qualifications, but your main job description.

The details on your reference letter is what you should be more concerned about. Look for the NOC that fits the descriptions.

Hope this helps..

[quote author=optionese post=54006290][/quote]

453 is a good score... No need to get a remark. Pls ps pls followup with your school and go there if you have to. You might be able to speed things up and get into the pool earlier than you think.

All the best!

optionese:
hello all, i got my results today LRWS 8.5,7.5,7,8.0. I disappointed especially with the reading because i felt like i had a very good test. i dont know if am patient enough to ask for a remark . however with this result i stand a chance to get 453. my ECA is however still pending no thanks to my school. gosh am so nervous. i hope to get in the pool by march. God will give us all reasons for good news

I'm sorry... I must have missed it. Pls repost if you can. Thanks

optionese:
@boldinc i asked aquestion yesterday , still expecting a reply . thank you

I experienced it too... In fact, noticed all I imputed in the form had cleared. Not sure why... Maybe the upgrade they did recently.

Went back to normal after a while tho, so keep trying.

crystalmar:
Dear House,

Thanks for all the support here so far.

I got an ITA.

Started completing the forms and now I have a problem. A pop up saying "appendGrid does not initialized" error.

I have looked online and did not get much help.

I have tried Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla and Safari browsers to no avail.

I have cleared browsing histories and cache. I have even reinstalled these softwares still no way.

Any other person experiencing this problem? The only other culprit I can think of is Slow Internet. Could this be the cause? I am in a location with limited access to regular network. Depending solely on wifi.

Thanks for the help.

Fill the form with her names as they are on her international passport...

samnijazz:
Good day all, please my spouse's Intl Passport has her maiden surname on it and I just received ITA yesterday, Can I continue the PR application with her maiden surname or use my own surname?

All her cress and passport has maiden Surname

I await your reply, thanks

Congrats! Could you pls share your timeline from getting in the pool? And also challenges faced plus extra documents requested... Thanks

ssemire:
Hello house.

I'm a very silent observer on this thread. However, I will like to share the good news that I've landed in Canada. From ITA to PPR took 9 months.

It is better to ensure you block all avenues for more documents request by providing all upfront. That way, your application will not be abandoned.

All the best to all that have received ITA

Checked her IELTS score as well?

Work experience also? Is it up to 3 years? Check the dates you imputed cos that will determine the respective score you get.

Yes withdraw profile it is...

Ehrnie:


Thanks for your response.

I have checked and checked a million times since yesterday...yet no show!

No she is not married yet.

There is no option for deleting EE profile. All I see is 'withdraw profile'. I am assuming that's the same as delete right? Can I still use her same email address to create this new EE profile?

Honestly, I do not have a concrete answer to your question... But from the look of things, it seems you just missed ITA by the whisker as your job bank status was still pending.

However, you can wait another few hours to see if you get ITA still... Otherwise, I will advise you wait till the next draw (bout 2 weeks). You should get ITA then for sure, with the on-going trend.

Aka2003:
Hello,
I created my EE profile last night and did the job bank and all. I got a message saying I have been accepted into the pool but my job bank status was still pending. My question is will I get an ITA based on today's draw? I have been in the pool for barely 24 hrs. I have my CRS score and it is more that the cut off score for today's draw.

I am not sure I understand what you mean by EE not recognizing her MSc degree... I will advise you confirm the WES reference number you typed in is correct, or better still, delete the profile and start again.

Make sure you check every detail step by step. I'm sure you should be able to resolve it.

PS... is she married? Did you include her husband's evaluated degree and IELTS results?

Ehrnie:
Good morning All....I need advise urgently!

I have been updating a friend's EE profile but the EE profile CRS score is 383 instead of 423 from the CRS online calculation. I compared her profile with mine (which is quite similar education-wise) & I see she is loosing points from her education. Her EE profile doesn't seem to recognise her MSc degree even with a WES evaluation.

(1) has anyone experienced this before
(2) should I give the EE time to update her score?
(3) should I delete that EE profile and start again.

NB I check for completeness as I finish every section...& it says Complete.

Someone please help!

To those sending me PMs... I try to reply but the email keeps getting returned. Anyone know why this is happening?

In the meantime, pls ask your questions here till I can get it resolved.

Thanks

Anyone who has gotten NOI from Ontario lately? Pls let us know... The info will help a lot of people here.

Thanks

Congrats...

folamingo:
Halleluyah....created profile December 2016 with 447...missed out on the last draw due to my spouse's IELTS....now uploaded ITA received.

It doesn't matter at all... People here have done it and gotten PPR... I am doing the same in the next couple of days as well.

Good luck!

socialmisfit:
Thanks, boldinc. My hubby will be accompanying me to Canada. Does this matter?

As I advised earlier... Let's wait out this week and see if Ontario has really started sending in NOI to people. That way, advice on what to do will be more informed.

The 1500 CAD is the processing fee for Ontario... It is non refundable and compulsory.

maideyz:



please i need more clarification on this. i am in the pool already ( since january) and i selected all province. Do I need to recreate my profile again and what is the fee of 1500 CAD for.

Lol... No be only PPR... Job offer and accommodation sef for don come... lol!

SlowlybtSurely:


Got it the next day.

No PPR yet. Not even "Medicals passed"

Got your COPR?

You have to merge them all in one PDF file, then upload...

temitope06:
Pls how does one upload more than one document for POF. Like two bank statements

Your husband can transfer the bulk sum into your account. He will not need to submit his bank statement... But he should write an LOE explaining he did the transfer and why.

You should not have any problems.

socialmisfit:
Hello guys,

Please I need clarification concerning Gift of deed. I have the option of having either hubby or dad transfer the settlement funds to me as gift of deed.

The problem is that neither hubby or dad have had the money in their account for up to 3 months, and I read somewhere that the funds should have been in the account for at least 6 months.

Is this true? Does the donor have to produce his/her bank statement?

Does anyone know any other option?

Kindly assist please.

Thanks.

No one is trying to fool you one bit or whatever it is your were tryna say... I had replied your email asking for how to contact Seun like you advised me to do as I could not send him a private message nor find his contacts anywhere on here, but you never responded...

Never mind tho. Not bothering myself any longer. I had retracted my message already before you popped up. All the best!

justwise:
@boldinc

You contacted me about ad here and I told you clearly to contact the admin because I don't deal with ad or anything money related but coming here to place an indirect ad will be not fool me one bit.

Lol... Congrats.

Onlineise:
Ope ooo...I adjusted my Work issue and settled for 442, ITA ti gbori wole!!!!!!!!

Thanks to everyone for the advise as always.

Never mind... Message retracted. I mentioned justwise earlier, so you didn't need to as well.

All the best with the DIY guys.

LEOSIRSIR:
till the Team respond to your request then dont ask anyone to send PM, any body that sends you Pm does it on his/her own .
