CHIKACIC:
I contacted my MP on 30th June. He sent my mail to one of his team, who then replied on 5th July by sending me a form to fill to authorize them to make the enquiry from IRCC.
The MP got back to me from IRCC yesterday 14th July. So approximately, 2 weeks.

Hope this helps.

please can you share your email draft with me?

porchy:

Hi please when did you order your notes.

Bushboy009:
I did my medicals today at Qlife. When is the best time to upload the E-medical sheet. April 14th applicant

Now is the best time bro. Cos you will literally have to chase them to upload it on your portal.

shupy:
They also also stated NSE applications will be processed expeditiously. i.e within 20 days

lmao…the NSE is the joke of the century �

EmeeNaka:
Order for GCMS notes and see the concerns noted. That will give you directions you need to follow to address them

Hey man, have you ordered your GCMS notes yet? I’m thinking of ordering mine… cos mehn since April 22nd I applied. I’ll like to know what’s going on.

Echogrey:
A very good morning to you all. It’s PPR!!

Wow! IRCC really toyed with my emotions o. In fact, I had decided my timeline would be very straightforward because of how they dragged the whole thing. It was just frustrating. But, to do that will be unfair.

Although I had submitted my application before I joined Nairaland, I must say that it’s been such a pleasure being on this platform. People are ever ready to help. Let’s all endeavor to continue with that spirit wherever we find ourselves.
I really enjoyed reading good news (which went a long way in keeping my hopes alive) and I also said a little prayer in my heart for those who were refused. All will be well.

SO…snippets of information about my application:

I am going for my Masters of Law (LLM) at Western University (London, Ontario) to resume September 1.
Please feel free to reach out if we would be neighbors! Lol

I was offered about 90% scholarship and I indicated my mum as sponsor to cover the remaining tuition fee and living expenses.

First time applicant.

To Note:

My permanent residency application which I submitted since December 2020 is still being processed. Dual intent comes in here!

General documents:

- Degree certificates/ transcripts.
- Certificate of incorporation (ONLY) of father’s company and mother’s company.
- Certificate of incorporation (ONLY) of mum’s foundation.
- Mum’s Share certificates
- CV
- Int. Passport bio data pages for parents and siblings
- Sworn affidavit of one and same person (my names are all over the place lol)
- Police character certificate
- IELTS result (L8,W,8,R8,S8.5)
- Mum’s C of O for just one property (no valuation report, etc., ONLY CofO)
- Proof of mum’s past and current employment
- Letter of support from mum (sponsor)
- Mum’s 1 year mybankstatement
- Scholarship package from my faculty

Home ties:

1. Work ID card, Letter of introduction from current employer indicating my salary, benefits, etc., (and also stating that I will be granted a study leave once my study permit has been approved).
3. I also downloaded my appraisal notes where my supervisor made very nice comments about my work in the Firm and my good character ( The appraisal notes also stated that I was recommended for promotion).
4. I am also a trustee in my mum’s foundation (the certificate of incorporation shows my name as one of the trustees)
5. Fact that my parents and 2 younger siblings are in Nigeria. I am the first child of my parents.

Proof of Personal Assets:

- 3 months payslips and statement of salary account (the balance at the time was not too significant- I only highlighted salary inflow)
- Statement of Retirement savings account and reference letter from Stanbic pension managers

Dual Intent:

I felt like I really needed to let them know that I would leave Canada (after my authorized stay) in the event that my PR application is refused so I added a bit more documents like:

- Character reference letter (from a former employer) who is also a notary public.
- Affidavit of good conduct stating that I will abide by the relevant laws and would not stay in Canada beyond the authorized period.
- I also stressed in my LOE, my frequent travels to the US and UK over the years so they know I will respectfully comply with their immigration laws and not overstay illegally.

Timeline:

- Application Submission: 30 March 2021 with NSE documents and upfront Medicals (which I used for my PR application)

- Review of Eligibility Start Date : 14 April 2021

(Caught more than 5 ghost updates )

- Medical Request : 10 June 2021

(Informed them via webform that I had previously submitted my medicals and it is still valid)

- Medical Passed : 14 June 2021

- BVL : 8 July 2021

- PPR: 9 July 2021

God bless us all and grant us our heart desires! Happy to answer any questions!

Cheers, guys!

Congratulations Bro, I’ll like to connect I’m going for LL.M at University of Victoria, but I won’t mind building a network of young Nigerian lawyers in Canada mehn…it will make sense.

kunbeeee:
I really do not understand why IRCC is making us go through all that stress of writing IELTS. Application is more than 2 months now and still no update.

honestly! It’s very sad!

RELAN2446:
Bvl this morning o

when did you apply?

Freebands01:
The whole stuff is so tiring. NSE route is just normal route with face mask

Bruh!…lol…my application is almost 3months old and I used NSE.

The plan is to carry two jeans, 5 shirts, a couple of underwears, winter jacket and fit them in my hand luggage… the two boxes will be filled with food!

When I reach Canada I go buy clothes.

LadyBlaq:
We prayed for PPR, it's here and we are thinking twice...

I am talking about me, myself and I. I am seriously so lazy about my travel plans. I have been busy doing nothing and everything. I have chest pains each time I think of leaving momsy even for one month. I don't know what and whatnot to pack, I don't even know where to start from...

I am a huuuge sucker for Nigerian foods, ( I lost an overwhelming amount of weight the last time I was at Singapore, with their pink and bright coloured foods). I don't know how to start parking and packaging my foods, I am almost certain I will have to pay for extra luggage, thanks to my love for our foods.
I swore not to take the vaccine here in Nigeria. I punched calculator for the 14 days quarantine and the next place I saw myself was at the nearest primary healthcare center, and then I turned back after standing for 20 minutes looking at people taking their jabs . I am so indecisive....

About my flight, I have booked a lot of them and they have all expired because I am yet to make up my mind for a particular date I am sure the airline ticketing computers yaff tire for me sef

Why am I like this? My program of study isn't listed as one of those having full delivery online( it's hybrid) and resumption is 14th of September, still, I am believing I'd start online first and nothing will happen...naija spirit in me geh coconut head


It's not even funny bayi! Who do me like this? Can I hire someone to plan this for me? This is becoming more tedious than applying to IRCC for visa plus the wait join...oh chi m!

Adeolu and Daba if you are reading this, please pray for me, I am as confused as anything...

#Lazyrants #confusionofmakingdecisiontoleavenaija

Bhooomie:
Almighty God has done it for me!!! It's PPR!!!

Second time applicant. Applied May 31st and got PPR 30th June.

To think I was smiling all through yesterday while reading people's PPR testimonies not knowing mine already dropped.

Thank you Jesus. I will be back with full details.

OMG! Congratulations buddy! I’m super happy for you.

EmeeNaka:
Yeah, they responded but eventually, the IRCC response was just that they're checking the eligibility requirements.

uhmm okay….just the generic response nothing more?

EmeeNaka:
Please, go and do your Medicals. If you get Medicals Request now, when will you book it and get it done? Your best bet is to book for your Medicals. Stop listening to stupid agents

bro how far, has the MP responded to your email about your application?

EmeeNaka:
I usually start by thanking them for their efforts in processing our applications amid COVID 19 associated difficulties. Then I remind them about my application, encouraging them to conclude on it with a decision

Bro, what’s the link for Nairobi office webform please.

EmeeNaka:
I usually start by thanking them for their efforts in processing our applications amid COVID 19 associated difficulties. Then I remind them about my application, encouraging them to conclude on it with a decision

cos bro….May applicants are getting PPR and we April applicant nothing yet!

EmeeNaka:
You should order for your GCMS notes. That will help you find out what is happening behind the scene. For you to get Medical Request means that they have reached decision stage on your application.
Alternatively, you should send Webforms/emails to Nairobi like twice weekly and encourage them to give decision on your application

bro, please what do you say in your webform/email?

LONG POST !!!

Special thanks to Frankrobbn1 for his advice and efforts on my application.

May God reward you abundantly.

Thanks to Chocs for her input on my LOE, she dedicated her time to give me detailed feedback. May God bless her.

Thanks to Lekiboboe and Justmellow. I reached out to both for their opinions on my study plans. May God ease both their affairs.

I am grateful to my friends who turned up at critical moments and helped me navigate the whole process flawlessly. JosephYemsol who drove me to Alagbọn for PCC and also drove me to VFS office for biometric. Also, Atiteb4 who personally accompanied me to IOM clinic and waited till I got the whole upfront medical process sorted. I pray that their applications be successful too.

And finally, I am grateful to everyone on this platform; the insights, opinions, testimonies, questions and answers were really helpful through out the process (both application and waiting period).
