Thanks for coming to my standup special…will soon be on Netflix for those that missed it.

My actual story now...no jokes again

God is Good!

Just to let you know that I'm the "First To Like" your post!
Beautiful story! I caught myself double-checking at "Kid didn't do ECA because points were enough" and had to mentally beat myself.
Congratulations to you and your family.
We're patiently waiting for the continuation of the story a.k.a. "How Canada?"

Eraytee:
Ok then, many updates have occurred since I created my profile, all good that you were able to do it..... that's the most important thing

Lol yea. Thanks plenty.

Eraytee:
you cant edit from there its locked in, check the screenshot i posted above. modify family information is where the change can be made.

Okay. I edited mine yesterday using those steps, it wasn't locked and the update was accepted.
Before responding to the OP too, I tried same steps and it opened for editing.

gabby18:
Hello Itzpearl concerning this POF update, I'm already in the EE pool yet to receive ITA (family of 3) and while creating my profile I dint see any part that requires inputting the amount of funds I have.

Please where exactly in your profile is this amount supposed to be stated
Thanks

Under View the applications you submitted,
Click Check full application status.

Go to VIEW YOUR PROFILE,
On PERSONAL INFORMATION, click Update form.
Then select FAMILY,
You'd see two questions: One asking how many family members you're coming with, and the Second asking how much you're coming with.

Eraytee:
yes sure, but previously we have seen the instance of updating it and some lost their profiles in the process. this have known before creating mine, my POF is still above the new limit.

Okay nice point.

Eraytee:
This is the period when some profiles would become ineligible because of the updated POF, as always advised previously, always make sure the amount stated in your profile is a bit above the set limit by IRCC to avoid losing your profile. tie-break rule is key in this journey.

If you had the previous POF limit on your profile, you can update without it affecting your ITA chances.

yemblaze:
Yes

Thanks a lot for answering.

Hello Everyone.
Please, if one creates a profile today and there's a draw today where the individual's score is above the ITA cut-off, will the individual get ITA?

chinoify:
This depends on the products you want to buy and the site.. If you are buying from 1688 . com, you need an agent but from Alibaba, you buy from company direct.
This is the trick I use, copy the product name on 1688 and search for it on Alibaba, you should get it.

Hello, please if one is buying from Alibaba.com, how's the process like after ordering from the seller?

Here's a step by step breakdown for Pharmacists. It has already been posted on page 1 but there are minute changes to the fees

First thing is to register on Pharmacy gateway (http://www.pharmacistsgatewaycanada.ca) and pay 93k to get what is called a NAPRA ID. Then afterwards, register on pebc (www.pebc.ca) with 183k for your Pharmacy degree document evaluation. You'll then download 2 forms; one is a form containing your details you filled on the PEBC website and another form called the "ECA report form".
_{PS: Keep your email safe because all communications with PEBC will be via this route}

Apply to PCN to send your licensing statement (Letter of Good standing) directly to PEBC if currently licensed. This costs 50k. (30k for the statement and 20k for courier)

Apply to your school to send your Bpharm Transcript directly to PEBC

Notarize with a commisionerof oath or lawyer the online application form, ECA report form, certified true copy of your Pharmacy university certificate, Intl passport data page, marriage certificate (if any), change of name if name on application is different from any of the names on the supporting documents. Then package and send via post/courier to the following PEBC address

717 Church Street,
Toronto, ON M4W 2M4, Canada

Wait for an acknowledgement email from them (PEBC) on receiving all documents from the two institutions (Your University transcript and the licensing statement) and your supporting documents (Takes about 4 weeks from the time the last document was delivered).

After the acknowledgment email, it'll take another 4 weeks for PEBC to complete your evaluation. You can send them a mail to enquire the status of your application. The ECA will then be sent to your address you filled during the application. If it is a Nigerian one, it'll take about 2 to 3 weeks to get the report. But if a Canadian or US address, it'll be delivered within 5 days

Use the information to then create your Express Entry profile.


What you will need to apply:

• A valid Visa or MasterCard for the full application fee cos payments are online
• Your Username and Password if you have previously applied for a pebc pharmacist exam
• Cookies enabled on your browser to ensure your information is private and secure

If you are a first time applicant:
A NAPRA ID number acquired by enrolling in the NAPRA Gateway (check the Pharmacy gateway address above)
Once you have completed the online portion of the application you must:

Print the PDF version of the application provided
Follow the application instructions for Document Evaluation.
Mail or courier the paper application and required documents (trsnscripts, licensing statement) to pebc
If you complete the online portion of the application but do not print and send pebc the paper application via courier, your application will be withdrawn or
You will be charged an administrative fee of $150CAD


PS: Ensure you prepare and write your IELTS within this time frame and achieve a CLB9 and above to get a high CRS score

Extras!
During my waiting time, I decided to start exploring income opportunities in Canada. I created a junk youtube channel which i will fully utilize when i’m ready. For now, it’s just gathering views so as to pass monetization.
I also researched on driving in canada and started a blog on it. At the moment, it seems like the blog can generate enough monthly income for my phone bills in canada. I am confident that by next year’s ending, the blog should be able to pay our monthly rent.
I’m adding this here to help us understand that the wait time can be invested into something profitable. Don’t just sulk.
The End!

Your PPR gist is so motivating! I wish you and your family all the best in your new country. May blessings follow you. And your wife is a gem!

MissyVee007:
Please how long approximately does the remark take? And can you open an EE while you wait? Didn’t see this info on their website.

The remark for BC takes between 2 to 21 days.
If after 28 days, you have not gotten a feedback, you should mail them.

Ye80:
Hello all, so i heard that there is a particular email to copy as a reply to the acknowledgement mail from BC after applying for EOR, pls who knows the email address and the structure of its content?
I requested for a remark in my writing which was 6.5 last week Tuesday and got an acknowledgement mail today, i heard i have to follow up with a mail and copy some others, pls i need this mail adresses if they exist and if this action is needed. Thanks

I think you should hold on. They'd revert to you by email once your EOR returns. If after 28days from today you haven't heard from them, you can send a follow-up mail.

Shame on ALL of you who couldn't contain your ego just enough to allow the graduating students revel in their success.

It's a thread celebrating their graduation - allow them to be happy. You gain nothing by going from thread to thread tying to prove why the Tongue is more important than the Teeth whereas we all know that both Tongue and Teeth must work together for the mouth to function optimally.

The earlier you Doctors and Pharmacists realize that synergy is the way forward, the better for the medical field.

Our PPR/COPR Story.
Part 1
Guess what people!!!! Its PPR and COPR����‍♀️�‍♀️�������������

��you are God from beginning to the end there is no place for argument you are God all by yourself��

This thread has helped me a lot and the least I can do is give back in my little own way. So sit back, relax and please enjoy the reading.
This journey is not an easy one. It takes grit and grace to start, keep up with the race and continue to the end. Today I am here to say it ended in the highest praise

I am so happy for you! I literally have tears (of joy and of feeling the depth of emotions embedded in your story)

May Jehovah be praised in your behalf. I wish you God's blessings and a beautiful life in Canada.

cutiep:
This makes a lot of sense. We have decided have o do this already thanks.

After we land we can leave to US after two weeks and process a PRTD to get back into Canada.

Thanks again.

You're very welcome.
I'm glad (actually, very excited) I could help.
Singing: "Maama I made it! I'm actually learning enough to make sense o"

cutiep:
Yes we have PPR and I will just be about 5mths at the time

I'm very new on these streets (and probably still thinking in very Nigerian terms ) but I'd like to share my opinions on your post.
Please, consider landing at Canada first and completing all your documentation before the US travel. You really don't want to hear stories that touch after the long hassle of getting PPR. I really think you can always travel from Canada to US as you please once you're done with your PR documentations.
There may be no written rule that is against your plans per se, but why would you want to put yourself under so much scrutiny and checks?

Angelicstar:
Pls what's the account number used for the bankdraft

I didn't use an account number. Just issue the draft from your own bank in the name of the beneficiary I mentioned.

Stencil:
In regards to your previous firm. You could just tell them to address the letter with "To Whom it may concern". That way they don't know what you need it for. If that is what you are concerned about.

To your second question. No it won't. You find and apply for whatever job you think you qualify for.
If you claimed points for being a doctor on your EE profile, then get to Canada and realize that being a professional Nanny is your calling... Go for it.

Thanks so much.

Stencil:
Get a reference letter from your current employer (2 years)
Get another reference letter(s) to cover an additional year (1 year)

You only get maximum points for 3 years. Move the remaining work experience to personal history (after you get ITA).

Thanks so much.
Oh dear, I don't want to have to collect reference letter again from my previous firm.

One more question please (thanks for indulging), would job placements upon arrival at Canada be based on the uploaded NOCs on my EE profile?

Stencil:
You can combine different NOCs to get to 3 years. Only one of the NOCs/Job needs to be continuous for one year.
In your case, you have enough for 3 years.

Please would one need reference letters from the firms (including previous employers) for all jobs submitted in the application?

For instance I have spent 2 years with my current employer and have 3 years experience from 3 previous employers. I intend to add those other years to complete the 3years+ experience on the CRS tool.
Would I need to meet my previous employers to give me reference letters in addition to the reference letter from my current employer?

Angelicstar:
Please anyone who have done eor for ielts British council please should tell me the process I can't find it online lrws 8.5,8,6.5,7.5. called customer care they have been putting me on queue since yesterday �

For British Council, you need to raise a bank draft in any bank you have an account with.

The Recipient of the Bank Draft should be:
British Council Trading Services Nigeria Limited

Amount: NGN15,750

Take the bank draft to BC office with your old Test Result Form.
You would be given an EOR form to fill where you would tick the components i.e. the particular course module(s) you want to remark. Your old TRF would be viewed but wouldn't be collected from you till when you return back to collect the EOR results. The process is expected to take between 2 to 21 days.

If you have not received a response after 28 days from the date you recieved the acknowledgement email, please contact frederick.amatokwu@ng.britishcouncil.org and copy alexander.ofuyah@ng.britishcouncil.org. You should ensure that you provide your candidate number and test date in the body of the mail.
Please note that they state that they are unable to track the outcome of an Enquiry on Results until 28 days have passed.

Success dear.

ovy92:
CONGRATULATIONS on your Remark for Writing, I'm happy for you.

Please how long did your Remark take?

Also did you do your Remark with BC or MOD IDP?

Thanks so much.

I got a mail in acknowledgement of EOR 5 days after submitting the EOR.

I got a mail saying the EOR result has returned 7 days after the acknowledgement email.

It was British Council.

udoclub:
I saw my result today and intend applying for EOR on Monday. Please is it compulsory to submit the original test report form along with the EOR request.

No it's not compulsory. But I think you should still go with it if you can.
It is when the EOR result comes out changed that they'd request for you to submit the old/original test report form.

Pwinkle1:
@Itzpearlz i'm over here dancing for you!!!!

Lol!!!!!!!!


Yaaaaaaaayyyyyyyssssssssssssssss!


I'm suppppppppper excited!

I've been waiting patiently to mark my first post on this thread with a victory story.


You People!!!!

It's IELTS victory o!

Lol, no vex in case my excitement is too plenty for IELTS as other people are celebrating PPR.

So I wrote IELTS at first attempt last month.

That is, after several postponements for fear of the money not entering voicemail (75k is not beans o )
I eventually got the push that last month and immediately paid before I could change my mind.

And then it dawned on me that it was less than a month away!
Oh My Wow!

The spirit of "I've been using English all my life" overcame me in addition to handling plenty other activities all at once.

Speaking test was really fine. The storytelling part was especially fun. I had a Nigerian examiner. At a point, where I wanted to use 'phoné' to confuse myself, she just looked at me in a way that communicated "Just be yourself, better don't phonerize yourself into failure!"

I thank God.

Next the LWR tests..

Anytime I remembered that I had exam, I would quickly play the listening videos I had from a dear friend. I looked at the Reading material only once. And then the writing, Oh the writing! I had looked at the Cambridge writing materials a few times and somehow my mind told me that "It's just regular stuff naa". (Brethren, this is the SCAMMEST scam o! Don't fall for it! It's not regular o)
A night before the exam, that's when I decided to crash read the MOD writing practice textbook that my friend gifted me (Brethren, don't do this - it's a recipe for High Blood Pressure ). OMG, it was that night I realized how book is sha! I covered more than half of the book (glossing through in crash reading style). That night ehnnnnn, different thoughts "Why didn't I" "What if I had" "I wish I could"...

I slept off at about 4am and ended up oversleeping. By the time I woke, it was almost 7am!
Lol I had to wash face, brush my teeth and wore the first available Jean and Top. (Yes, I wrote the exam without bathing! ) My Dad to the rescue, he took me to a spot where I found OPay to the venue and I was able to make it there early.

Thank God!

The crowd sha!

A fresh fear came upon me. I was looking at people's faces as if trying to discern how many times they had written the exam and wondering if I'd be coming back again. I'd read of people spending over a million naira on IELTS test fees. Many thoughts rioting "Why didn't I prepare well?"

Eventually, I wrote.

The day before results came out, I was beside myself in anticipation and fear. Alas, the next morning I saw the results. Lo and behold, beautiful result except for the writing. Yes o, that writing shaaaa!!! My Goodness! The 6.5 hit me like "Gboa!"

I was confused to be honest. I talked with my EE Big Sis and her confidence in my matter ehnnnnn. She said I should request for a remark. She was SO SURE! Another friend said I should jejely not waste time with remark and just prepare my mind to rewrite it.

To say I was confused is to say the least. I was disappointed, crushed, confused and afraid, all at once.

I checked my score with 6.5 and with 7.0, Brethren, the gap was wiiiiiiddddddeeee!

What to do?

I decided to Walk in Faith and pray for a remark to return in my favour.
I chose to remark only Writing even though I've read that it's advisable to tick two modules to ensure the refund. Lol I ghatz focus my prayers well biko, so I chose to remark only writing.

The waiting for EOR sha.... I read almost every material I could find on EOR process.
All the different materials, some sent shivers down my spine, some gave me hope, some confused me. Chai! In fact, that's how I read somewhere that if the difference between your highest score and the least score is more than 2 points, then automatically there's no hope for an increase. I got reaaallly scared. I thank God that proved to be a false claim o.
My mum was scared the scores will even reduce! Lol I had to assure her from what I read here on NL that it wouldn't. But Brethren, in my research upandan online, I stumbled on some sites that said it could reduce o. Choi! See fear!
I sent private messages to Pwinkle1 and Michaelsmadison. Pwinkle1 was so kind and so detailed in her response! God bless you! MichaelMadison was so helpful, and patient with my drama. Lol!

You guys!!!!!!!!

Drum roll!!!

EOR Result is out and God gave me the 0.5 I needed!

I am MAD excited!

I kept praying and my prayer was "0.5" and He gave me exactly what I needed! Gratitude doesn't begin to contain how I feel.

Like, I don't mind the wait of this process o, but you see the thought of rewriting exam? Oh My!

Please, forgive my long post and join me to thank God!

Now, ECA wait begins.

pek:
All your quotations and answer are from one source. It has buttressed the fact that you lot don't read any other thing. Does it make sense to you that I want to disprove your teachings and beliefs and you are asking me to read YOUR publications.

Yes, it does make sense that you want to disprove my beliefs based on your misunderstanding of them and I'm pointing you to the true definitions/accurate understanding of my beliefs.

You have to first understand what the belief is before you can appropriately disprove it.
