The waiting time has been the most stressful and anxiety ridden experience of my life because a lot was riding on it.

Work Ref: Only reference letter ,no paylips etc.
UK PCC: please have it sent to a UK address, the one i ordered to Nigeria is still not here 6 months later.

ETA: 100% Gift of deed used only a letter from Gtb,no statememts.

Thank you to everyone on Nairaland, your posts always kept the hope alive for me.

Now I am going to look for how to avoid spending $300 on an insulated winter jacket.

congrats o. It has ended in praise.
please while writing LOE for gift deed, what reason was given? Also, was his statement of account included in your submission?

thanks.

Good day all
I come in peace
Please I will appreciate it if any one will direct me on where to start this journey, I lack the basic knowledge required for this, I just know is a legitimate process that have to do with hard work and a strong desire to succeed, my school mate moved in June but did not disclose much rather than "go do your research" I tried to but the short codes I see In The posts look like programming language. I am about completing my Masters degree, and I know I can afford 5 to 6 million for this relocation of the need raises. Please help a brother I am very willing to go all the way to get this PR like others here have, please and please your advise are most welcome . I
Wrote IELTS last 2 years for study in Australia got 7.5 but the whole thing didn't pull through that is why I am running the programme here in Nigeria UNN to be precise. Please help thank you all.

Really I'm quite surprised that some people are even considering "giving up" after a failed IELTS attempt. give up and do what exactly??
when will y'all understand that in this journey "giving up" is NOT an option...you CAN'T give up.

if you failed an attempt, register for the next!
if you don't have the money yet, save up!
if you're scared of rewriting, chill, give yourself more time to practice and go write it!
but whatever you do, you just CANNOT give up!

For to "give up" is to die, and we aint dying.
Nah!...not today.
we goan live a long fulfilled life IN CANADA!

We live to fight another day guys....keep hope alive.

you sound like a colleague...that's the spirit. As men of honor...

thanks.

Please please if you are battling with IELTS. You CANNOT give up.
It may seem like an exaggeration but IELTS taught me a lot and I've made amazing friends on this platform. You know yourselves

My WES and IELTS within 48 hours!!!

We now stand at 458!!!

Jehovah is not sleeping at all..he gives us what we need when we least expect.

this brought tears to my eyes....especially the words in bold.

GlitteringStar:



Awww, true. It is not enough oo. You can learn more about provincial programs on the PNP thread. You can also learn French to boost your score.

Is there a thread for people writing the French exams?

sleekchic:


sweet lady, I like you

I'm turning purple (black man's blushing). Thanks

joo2018:
For best peace of mind, transfer the money now and invest in TB.

thanks.

CanadianNaija:


Why won’t you just take out time to read this thread? Especially page 1.

All these questions you’re asking have been answered in so many different ways.

Do people stumble on a thread and go ahead posting without reading up a bit first?

I am sorry my question brought up friction here. I have read page 1 actually, but probably got lost with lthe links and missed the part that provided answer to my question. i will check it out again. i must say page 1 is rich and i do not take the effort of those people who prepared it for granted. Thank you for the good you do.

Hello people, thank you for the resourceful pool we have here. My worry is about my pof. I have a family of 5 and I am the PA coz hubby's age won't favor us as much. We intend using gift deed from hubby's brother. He had planned on sponsoring my 1st year Canadian studies before now but I just reasoned since I'm eligible for EE, let's convert that to pof and follow EE instead. Will this be a good enough reason when the time comes or I should tell him to transfer the money to me now so it can sit in the account for up to 6 months or I invest it in TB? Will I have to explain the lump sum in this case? I am about to start eca and write ielts soon, so I can wait the 6months to avoid stories that touch.
Please help, I'm worried sick. I don't want any misrepresentation. Thanks

kfrosh:
He should drop his transcipt details of the verbal interview he had with the consular.

He was not outrightly denied because his brother was his sponsor. It hugely depends on his demeanor and level of confidence during his interview, also his manner of presentation as well.

Alright. I will do that as soon as he returns from Abuja. Thank you

Humble11:


He should drop his transcript here so gurus in the house can advise him further

You mean the conversation that ensued between them? Or the details of what he applied for?

hello people, i am new to this thread. i wish i found it sooner. My husband was denied a student visa today. i havent seen him to know the details of what transpired but from what he told me, the VO seems to have issue with the fact that his brother is sponsoring his studies, she didnt even ask for the brother's statement of account or his employment letter. just like that, she declined. what could be the problem please?

Ifeoma77:

No he's not. Just go to the Police headquarters in the state where you reside.
They'll do it for you there.

Thanks a bunch!

freshjayy:
Please who has inspector MOshood’s number and what is the process for the police clearance plus what documents do I need. Thanks

Please is it only this inspector that can give the pcc in Nigeria? What of people who aren't residents of Lagos state? Where do we obtain ours from or do we have to travel down? I'm kinda confused

i highly encouraged by your report.

may it all end in praise for me the rest of us

Very Short Post Alert

In another news!!!

Apologies this is coming late. It’s PPR!!!!

Started this journey in October 2017 after we made a decision to relocate.

IELTS showed me pepper as I had to take it three times:

1st - 10 February 2018 LRWS 6,8,8,7.5

2nd - 24 March 2018 LRWS 7.5,8,6.5,8, when I saw this result midnight of 6 April, I quickly registered for the following day’s test without much preparation.

3rd - 7 April 2018 LRWS 8.5,8.5,7,8. As a result of this third IELTS result, our CRS jumped to 450 from 3hundred and sth(don’t ask me questions ). I would say please don’t give up on this journey because I was almost losing confidence in myself after my second IELTS result as I rarely fail exams. I also got encouragement on this forum seeing some people gave (as our Indian brothers will say) IELTS up to 7 times and now in Canada. Hence, I had to quickly re-take the test to avoid losing momentum.

Timeline

Minimum invited CRS 441

Then the long awaited golden mail arrived!!!!

PPR 3 October 2018 at exactly 3:39am, can’t remember the seconds
No ADR
Family size 3
Ottawa VO

ECA - I used WES but those guys plus our regular naija strike stressed me Walahi; I sha got the completed report for spouse and myself after 6 months.

PCC - Got for U.K. and Nigeria. U.K PCC is pretty easy to get once you follow instructions on their site. For Nigeria PCC, used inspector Moshood for spouse and myself. He charged us N17,000 because we couldn’t go to Alagbon as all correspondence with him was via email. However, I sent a friend to pick the original certificates from him and scan to me. Contrary to what I have read here, I decided to exclude from my eApr the Alagbon stamped fingerprints papers accompanying the PCC because I felt it wasn’t relevant since CIC only requested for PCC; so I only uploaded the Police certificates with our application. Thank God there was no issue with it. Although, I wanted to take style avoid implicating myself as I was in the U.K. when I submitted my application and the procedure for getting fingerprints done was expensive for me and stressful; so I bought ink pad from one shop and did the stuff in my room, then scanned to inspector Moshood. I felt if I had included the fingerprints with my application, any inquisitive VO may flag that “how did he get PCC as the fingerprints were not certified or stamped by U.K. police &/or Nigeria High commission”. Just my thinking though.

POF - Hmmm, I had to patch this one o; I used Treasury bills from Stanbic as 55% of POF (didn’t include any bank statements), cash in Dom account with a foreign bank was 28% (only submitted stamped bank statements and a letter from the bank stating when the account was opened as I intentionally didn’t want to get the format letter requested by CIC because I have credit card debt with the bank which I wasn’t sure may affect my POF; God had mercy sha) while my PF was the remaining 17% of POF. I prayed o for them to consider this PF as it was my last resort and only hope at that time as I don’t have anybody that can gift me money. Can’t remember the last time I got money gift again, maybe childhood. As advised on this tread, I prepared a table for the POF and explained each, particularly the PF section, very well as I had initially withdrawn some voluntary contributions in 2017 and this reflected on the Pension statements. Had to let them know the withdrawn amount was a voluntary contribution and does not constitute part of the accessible 25% o before somebody will start running around for money way no loss upon ADR for the balance.

Work experience - got over 3 years work experience and getting reference letter was pretty easy. God bless my employer. Although, not necessary, I submitted work experience letter for my wife too since we had it readily available.

Medicals - Everything was fine for 3 of us other than the Dr recommending me for a further test because he sighted protein in my urine. God forbid!!! But thank God all was well after the further test although he still included protein something which my Jesus had taken away.

Travel history - just US and UK and no Visa refusal history

Criminal history - None by His grace other than childhood stealing of pencils and biros; and beating traffic lights in Lagos; which Nigeria PCC did not capture.

What again??

Ok lest I forget, I got 15 points for sibling in Canada �� so provided Copies of her PR card, utility bills within 3 months of eApr, marriage certificates and birth certificates showing names of both parents. I included sibling’s marriage certificate and newspaper publication for change of name as sibling is married and utility bill carries husband’s name.

My prayer for all still waiting for IELTS, ECA, ITA, POF and PPR is that it will surely come speedily in Jesus’ name. Amen

This thread is very informative and is got selfless people always willing to share. May God bless you all.

Ramj:


Same thing as would be from any other financial instituion.

When you joined, how much you have... stamped and all


Je m'appelle Ramj

thanks Mr

Please, what does letter from cooperative mean as a pof? What will the letter entail?

joo2018:
Your question is not clear.
Anyway, you don't need birth certificate for WES or to create your EE profile. I don't know about PEBC.
You might need birth certificate for eAPR if you are claiming points from a sibling in Canada.

Thanks. I meant if birthday certificate is required at all, which should I use because I don't have the hospital's birth certificate anymore. PEBC requests for birth certificate.

FaskRolce:
As one of the documents to submit for credential evaluation with PEBC (or WES) or while filling the EE form, what type of Birth certificate is required? Is it the one from the hospital of birth or national population commission? Is declaration of age accepted?

please can someone help me with this?

As one of the documents to submit for credential evaluation with PEBC (or WES) or while filling the EE form, what type of Birth certificate is required? Is it the one from the hospital of birth or national population commission? Is declaration of age accepted?

Please is anyone from Unijos who has done ECA? I intend applying for transcripts for my degree certificate once Jos is at rest but I need a contact in the transcript office who will help me FastTrack the process and watch out for verification mail from the assessing body (in this case, PEBC).
I await your response please

Please can you share the link to the crs calculator?

doppler06:

You can play with the crs calculator and see if you need the IQAS evaluation or not. IQAS evaluation will give the equivalent of a masters/professional degree for you LLB.
If you can tell Wes to evaluate you law school cert and transcript as well, you'd get the equivalent of 2 or more certificates. So your CRS score using 2 or more or Masters will help determine the best course of action. Cuz IQAS will take a really long time. Hope this helps
