Hi Braine, I know your above post is a year old but it actually answers part of my previous question above.
Stage 1. Pre-ITA : Most recent title and then the duration of all the titles i.e start to current (Answered)
Stage 2. After ITA: In my reference letter, I'm to outline the start and promotion/end date of each title. (Answered)
Stage 3: work history and personal history?
I'm currently at stage 3 and would like to know how you filled employment for your work history and personal history? I've worked at same place in the past 10 years, so do I create entries for the different durations of positions held or it is still same recent title and then the duration of all the titles i.e start to current, like Pre-ITA all under one entry.
I look forward to reading your input on this issue.
Thanks a lot in advance.

The same answer still works.

If the roles during the 10 years all fall under the same NOC, you can put one entry for the 10 years. You have to input when you started at the company and when it ended. You will only get one reference letter that highlights the duties and promotions. (I included the promotion letters and salary increments as supporting docs).

However, If the duties are different, I.e in different NOCs for each role you held in that same organisation, then you’d have to break the roles down as different entries in your work experience with the same organisation. And then get reference letters for the roles/titles in the different NOCs.

A third case may be if one particular role spans over 3 years within the 10 years, and you want to claim points for just that. It’s basically the same process.

Because your current role has been for the past 10 years of which you’re claiming 3years for points, you’d have to put the entire 10 years your experience section.

If you worked somewhere else or had a side hustle, or companies or businesses and you are not claiming points for them, those can go into personal history. Anything you’re not claiming points for will go into personal history.

Adding unnecessary info to your main sections will just lead to more documentation requests and potentially future ADRs.

Nairalanders please help

If my degree was earned more than 10 years ago, should I still include it in the personal history section of the PR application?

The system has transferred it( Degree) from my EE application to the PR application. I am thinking of deleting it from the personal history part of the application since it's not in the last 10years.

PS: I have an ECA for this degree and it's on my Study and Language part of the PR application


Also 10 years is from October 11th 2014 to October 10th 2024 ?

I included mine in my personal history since i wasn’t using it to claim points.

If you are using it to claim point, it has to be in your Education section.

As if Iran will just sit and fold their arms. LOL.

E go shock everybody.

Since Nigeria isn't ready to consume his products, his best bet is outside Nigeria. He will make excess gains.

Good for him. Nigerians lever learn.

Please out to curiosity why should he not select quebec? i have seen another post on another random topic saying dont select quebec... i selected quebec in mine.

Quebec is not part of this express entry parole. You will be risking your application by getting it refused.

Who did they vote for?

Hit the gym bro.

Haha…

Nigerians have not seen anything yet. Una go hear am.

Leapp:
Hello,
Pls does anyone know a study loan company that gives study loans to study a Diploma course in Canada ?
Most of them do MSc or MBA but pls am looking for one that would grant study loan to do a Diploma course in Canada.

Thanks

The way things are going now with Canadian immigration and students, unavailability of jobs and the prospect of paying back, is this a wise decision?

Especially if you plan to be PR?

A personal building is an asset oga... A double one sef...if U have a spare space to rent out

What U saying bro...

Having a building is a liability. The value only comes if you decide to sell. Plus, you can never recover your money back, no matter the rent you put on it, especially if you plan to leave it for your offspring.

I’d rather buy lands instead which I can resell later which will be worth more than building something that will become outdated later.

It’s better to buy land and keep. Just buy land everywhere you can afford. With due diligence of course.

Come on! Do some research. This is not the kind of question you should be asking!

Hello everyone!

I currently live in GTA Ontario, and considering moving from the city I am currently to London Ontario permanently with my family. I would appreciate if I can get people's opinion about living in London Ontario, is it an affordable place for family?, is it affordable to buy a house?, How is the Nigerian community like?, The job market?, The cost of living?, Safety?, Childcare subsidy in the region?

Thanks in advance!

I would appreciate a response from any Nigerian currently in London Ontario

I have been to London a few times and I think it’s pretty okay for a family.

It is cool and devoid of all the GTA drama.

However, when it comes to jobs, I doubt you’d find anything viable there. Cost of living is pretty decent. Just ensure you have a vehicle. There are a few Nigerians moving there. I’ve not heard anything adverse about safety in that axis.

The person I go to meet there got their Townhouse for 600k which is still pretty expensive if you asked me. I’m sure you’d find for the same amount around Cambridge or some parts of Kitchener.


Regarding childcare subsidy? I thought that’s a province wide thing?


London is generally a decent place to live, but it’s like 2 hours to Toronto, which is a red flag for someone like me who has to go to work in GTA and flex a bit. However, if you and your spouse work remotely, then you’re good. But if you are a town boy like me…. Lol. You’ll adjust sha.

I just discovered that i will need two years work experience to be legible for skilled trade worker. to get into this canada is harder than i Thought. I have not seen anyone who has taken the pte core from nigeria and come out with band 80 or 90 and i dont want to be the first one to try it out like that. i heard the exam is 150 usd. I really would like to immigrate to CA but it beginning to look like i chose the wrong profession. The study route is pretty expensive. most of the schools i see are 17k to 20k cad. Please does anyone know a better route for people like me who are software engineers seeking to imigrate to canada (crs score is not high enough).

Thanks

Do French as second language. You most definitely won’t regret it.

1.9 for a 2001 vehicle? Madness!

Person wey never chop dey do sports?

tellwisdom:
Foolish boi.. you made 18 million in Nigeria and want to waste it in another man’s country.

You will work your yansh off to amount that money in any of these countries

18m is less than 17k CAD o. That’s way below the annual minimum wage bro. You will make that money back in no time!

There’s huge return on investment. It’s just that it can be VERY rough when you first arrive. Don’t dull.

tensazangetsu20:
Except Canada PR which is now very hard to get you aren't leaving Nigeria anytime soon. To get a German study visa appointment if you didn't graduate with a first class degree in the last 2 years takes more than 18 months currently.

If I was you, I will try learning french aggressively between now and next year and focus on getting PR to Canada. With 18 million on student visa you go too suffer eh

Don’t underestimate this commitment.

Hi folks, good day. please anyone with steps on how to submit passports to Kenya VFS please? I want to send my passport there since it's faster.
thanks

Hey bro, have you been able to get this done?

What are the strategic goals, if I may ask?

Students in Ontario, how do you guys do it? How do you survive?


Even those with PR are lamenting seriously

I’d like to hear his own argument. I don’t trust those women.

Ontarioo:
No, the person only has to be a family member. Refer to page one here.

A parent preferably. Siblings, uncles, etc are weak links.

"Nairaland equivalent" got me rolling on the floor.... hahahaha

I actually meant Naira equivalent. My phone too oversabi.

zeb04:
Please guys, since I missed this month health draw. I cannot hold my proof of funds any longer.

The previous health draw was done in February and this one, yesterday.


(1) When do you advise I start gathering proof of funds again. Seeing the next one might be December.


(2) I have a lump sum of 10,000 cad that has been in my account for over 6 months. It was sent as a lump sum. Should this make me worried because it was sent as a lump sum?

I don’t think it will take that long to see another health draw. Please keep the hope alive.

To answer your questions,
1. I’d advise against touching the POF you currently have. You don’t know what the economy might the saying by the time you need it and then struggling to gather it again. Except it’s an emergency. You can take but ensure to return it ASAP. POF is a big deal in this journey; not to just have your way into Canada, but for survival when you eventually land. E no easy o.



2. If the money has been in your account for 6 months, you have nothing to worry about. Just get your bank statement and reference and submit.
Also, is the money in CAD or Nairaland equivalent?

See them... Selfish thinking

Did you get a job before you relocated to Canada?

What the guy said seems hard to believe, until you come and experience it yourself.

Jaradayn:
Good day everyone, I currently have a challenge and I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. I was selected for EE draw last year and I've passed both medical and biometrics. My main challenge here is that after all my suffering of preparing and writing TEF (which set me back almost 3 years) IRCC sent me a PFL saying they can't verify my TEF language tests. I currently don't know what to do. I have reached out to Alliance française where I sat for the exams and they aren't forthcoming. Now I have a few more days before the 30 days I was given expires and all I have is the mails I got from the centre when I paid, the schedule they sent me and the mail I got when my result came out.

NB: In the mail I got for the result, I activated the result and changed my password then but what I noticed now is that when I log in now all I get is a blank white page which wasn't the case before now

IRCC probably couldn’t reach them too, hence the PFL.

I think your best bet now is to submit screenshots of all the emails you got from Alliance Francaise, including those you sent to them for confirmation after receiving the PFL and include an explanation letter in your submission before the 30day deadline. This is high irresponsibility from AF.

Let Nigerians help themselves.
