Yes o SirKelvegaz After the long wait, we are so close.

SirKelvegaz:
8 Days till July!

This july must land sharply

SirKelvegaz:
16 Days till July!

I am not looking at schooling, I just need something to get extra points to add to our score, my husband isn't even around always so that's out of planning time and i work full time and there is home and kids, I do Duolingo daily and it has helped in basic communication. I just want something to add what ever scores I can get. I appreciate your feedback.

cooooooks:
I wouldn't do an A1 exam. A B1 DELF may be helpful for entry into a French speaking university.

You need to test yourself, or get a French teacher to test you. That's a good way to keep yourself honest.

As for time, my brother/sis; you have to make time.
Are you married? Convince your spouse to take on more work while you do this study.
Can you switch your movies from English to French? Can you watch French children TV?

Good luck.

Hello everyone,
I just joined this thread still reading up but it's alot. I want to sit DELF A1 on July 5th and I tried evening online lessons but after long day at work and home duties it wasn't working out so I only did one month. I still practice daily with Duolingo.
I want to start weekend intensive at Alliance Francaise this weekend, to help me brush up for DELF A1.
Question is, how many points can DELF A1 get my express application and is it worth it?
Thank you.

Thank you so much aurorae1

Good day all, please IELTS on Paper or computer, which one would you recommend based on experience?

IELTS on computer is best, thats my opinion because for me it' easy to track and you receive it quickly.

TIFEKAY:
HI congratulations, a few questions;
1. please after submitting your passport, how long did it take for the visa to come out?
2. was there any sort of acknowledgement of receiving the passport?

I got my PPR after a year (few) and I have submitted it, But I have not heard anything yet. thanks

What was your overall score please, if you don't mind me asking and what year. Thanks.

Sequel to my landing gist above,

ENCOURAGEMENT POST

This is just to encourage those of us still in the immigration process not to give up.. u can read up on my landing gist on this thread.

Sequel to my last update here, myself and my wife and kid landed in July 2021. Prior to our arrival my wife got a job offer around March 2021 with one of the big banks ( the whole interview process was conducted online from Nigeria). A major reason she got the job was because she told them she had her PPR but we could not land due to boarder closure at that time. The bank waited till the boarder was opened around June for fully vaccinated migrants.

She resumed work two weeks after we landed, it was a work from home role. I intensified my job search, applied to over a hundred companies and after several interviews with HR and Hiring Managers no job offer. I even started looking for customer service jobs, had an interview with one of the coys, my interviewer was a Ghanian, during the interview he encouraged me not to take the CS job saying that my qualifications and experience was above that role. He told me to be patient that I would get something good. So I signed up to the Acces employment job program ( a 1 week course on employment and interview skills for the Canada job market). Acces is a govt sponsored employment program to help immigrants transition into the Canadian job market.

A week after the end of the course, I applied for several roles in various coys and I eventually got a interview slot with an IT coy via Acces as an operations analyst with a pay of $20. During the interview process, the interviewers were impressed and of course with God's grace, they offered me a higher tole that was paying $38 per hour. I started this role on the first of October 2021 (3 months after I landed).

After I got the job offer, we immediately registered our child to the government day care centre ( I was practically baby sitting for those 3 months while my wife was working although she was working from home).

To cut the long story short, One month into my contract job I got 3 different permanent job offers ( 1 big four accounting firm, 2 big banks). I resigned my contract employment and resumed with one of the big banks. All these offers came within the month of October.

7 months down the line, we have purchased our own house and my wife has changed jobs after getting a much better offer.

Some lessons during the recruitment process:
1. Nothing like 2:1 required
2. Nothing like medical tests
3. Nothing like who do you know or who sent you.
4. Nothing like age limit.
5. Majority of the roles didn't even require a master's degree, your experience was enough.
6. You may not get your preferred role immediately you land but with time, u ll get your preferred role.

This is a country that stills gives my family an excess of $2,500 every month (free child day care worth $1,400, child benefits $692 per month, and other free benefits that just comes into your account HST etc).

The Crux of the matter is that:
1. Migration is not for everyone.
2. If u have chosen to migrate esp to Canada, please be patient with the process, don't give up, trust me the grass is greener on this side.
3. You can do the whole process yourself, u don't need to pay any agent. All the information u need is on this page.


Shalom!!!

God bless you for this, We applied last year and we are believing we will hear good news soon.

Hello Team
I got ppr on the 27th of January 2022
Sent my passport to Abuja VFS office via dhl.
I got an email with the tracking number from vfs on the 1st February 2022.
It’s been like 2 weeks and no email from vfs.
Should I be worried as anytime I keep tracking my passport, I get the message still in transit.
Any idea on the timeframe for passport submitted at Abuja office
Also any idea on how I can contact the Abuja VFs office
Thanks

When did you start your process please. Thanks
