Bishoplakes:
Thank you bro
Pls we are still open to more suggestions
Please don't take the advice above.. 62 isn't a good score for SINP, unless a miracle happens..

Your wife is still young, let her do CIMA, ACCA or BCS to get two or more certificates.. it'll add over 30 points

Then you also evaluate your Bsc and write IELTS, from the point you mentioned (426), It's obvious you done either one or none of the two.. you need to get them done..

By the time you have done the above, your score will be around 470...

All the best to your family.

The best people to contact when you've issues with taking your exam is PearsonVUE..

I had issues during my exam and they rescheduled me for free.. No hassle, they're the people in charge of the exam... Even at test centres, it's PearsonVUE they call too whenever there's an issue..

Their phone numbers are on their website.. Call early when they're resuming work, so that you don't wait for long and burn your credit..

All the best.

Sportchek or Lasthunt(online).
Sales usually starts in spring. Sales are still on, but at this time of the year, most common sizes would have sold out, but you never know, you might still be lucky.
Thanks smiley

Thank you. Please is it advisable to take an online course in a Canadian university? Would it help or it might just be a waste of time?
It's a waste of time for EE except you need it for job hunting purposes when you get to Canada..

To claim points for Canadian education, you must have been physically present for atleast 8 months in Canada while doing the course.

stop sharing this and creating panic. Ignore those frustrated Indians. This is their handwriting
The post wasn't to create panic.. No one knows what is true at this point so people should take any opportunity that comes..

I will not disparage the message because it was written by Indians(if true), after all they even get most information before us.. how they do it, I don't know..

The only valid argument is that CIC hasn't given out any information of such..

sorry if it created panic in anyone.. it'll end in praise

My advice to anyone that got Ontario NOI is to grab it with both hands irrespective of your CRS score because no one knows the future of EE.. especially for those without Canadian experience..

I also saw the below info, don't know how true it's... A bird in hand....

*SHARED AS SEEN*

NEW UPDATE TO EXPRESS ENTRY OR PROVINCIAL NORMINEE PROGRAM PNP IN CANADA. .
From October 2020, the Canadian Immigration will not be accepting new applications for the Express entry program and Provincial Norminee program, they will be treating the Backlog of applicants who will be applying b4 Sept 30th till they are done and open the program again which no one can tell when..they may only be attending to those who have a very high mark and because of age. After Sept 30th I will not be involve in Ur express entry until next year when I know Ur application will be reviewed on time by an CIC officer....This is very important, U can use other person on Ur own and wait on the queue with others, I will not be able to monitor their processing times as it will not be accurate. And Ur pressure on me will be too much Thank U

I don't know why you're so agitated... My problem with people like you is that they've never been to Canada yet know more than those living there..

I will leave you at that because I can't go the level you're taking it to.

Everytime, people will say travel first and go and see... just go on a visit, bla bla bla...who go give am visa? huh as if 800k per month is such a big deal.. even people earning more find it hard getting visas now..

That 800k seems big now because he never marry nor have kids..

Do what pleases you but don't think that 800k per month will give you visas to everywhere...

That's how he lost his job, who made the video ? angry

He didn't act well but I think the decision is rather harsh..

I also think he had been carrying people alone in the past, hence his action.. It's just that this particular one made it to the media..

Please can you assist with any contacts that can be reached for those who want to go back to Nigeria. The online form (in bold) is specifically for those who are leaving Nigeria and not those who want to leave to Canada.
I called Airpeace no answer, called NHC ottawa, no response.

Please who can we reach?

Na soft landing won put me for wahala so...
Nawa o, where you dey since? They've been circulating it for some time now.... the flight is in few days.. see details in the link below.. I hope it's not late..

AirPeace flew all the way to China to import PPE on behalf of the Nigerian Government; however, the price indeed looks cheap sha, considering the fact that the plane would also likely fly back to Nigeria empty.

I also forwarded this message to a PR I know stuck in Nigeria who refused to pay earlier $5k flight by organized by the Canadian government. I should probably go back and send him a caveat.
The plane isn't flying back empty.. it was supposed to go and pick Nigerians who want to be evacuated from Canada, so they decided to carry those going to Canada ...

I actually know a couple of people involved and I don't think it's scam.. the amount quoted above is for economy, business class is 1700USD and first class higher.. There are many people stuck in Nigeria with COPR expiring soon, many don't want their applications reopened plus some already resigned and sold properties..So, they've been making several arrangements. They were arranging with ET before this came up... However, people can still do their research.

I’m the PA, do I need to change my surname on my international passport to my husband’s surname or not necessary?
There's no problem with either of the options especially if you already have kids and your marriage isn't young but if you intend to change it at all then it's better to do it now and in Nigeria..

If I'm the one I won't come knowing I will be isolated without proper care
Many of them were stuck in the UK with visa expiring soon, so it makes sense to come back.

Besides, in developed countries too, you quarantine in your house.. nobody provides any special care for returnees.

My thoughts still do not hold waters?
I disagreed with your first submission because you made it seem like value creation is based on CRS score... and it's not.. anyone in the pool can add value, CRS doesn't determine who would pay more taxes, bring more money or excel better in Canada.

I wish everyone the best.

I don't think a draw would happen today. It's highly likely that the next draw (next week) would be a general one though, because I believe the CRS threshold for CEC are now pretty low. They can't keep ignoring quality all in the name of favouring the inland applicants. Leaving someone with 480 to pick someone with 445 might not exactly add the value they seek to their economy.
So because you've a CRS of 480, you think the job market will favour you over someone with Canadian education and experience ? Funny undecided

Also, wetin concern CRS with value add? Many people don't even work in their fields upon landing, while many go back to school... anyone can add value, no be CRS matter... so those who got ITA with less than 420 in the past no be quality ? undecided

We pray that CIC does general draw but this your line of thought no follow..sorry.
