Gift deed by Notary public can cost that much.

The alternative is affidavit (commissioner of oaths) at your local magistrate/high court. That's the cheap one.

Hi @jho.larharde, thanks a lot. I just DM'd you.
Please i need contact for the deed or the place where you did it. I'm hearing 30/40k and i don't have that kind of money. Thank you.

On a normal day, it takes WES 3-7 days to acknowledge documents talk less of holiday season. When did her school send it?

Hello everyone,
My wife is having issues with the evaluation of her degree certificate. She graduated from the University of Ibadan (distance learning) . The verification is being done by WES.
Her status reads "awaiting verification by your institution" for both transcript and the degree certificate. Meanwhile, the school claims to have sent emails to WES confirming the authenticity of the documents. I have called WES on her behalf and they haven't updated her status till now.
Any advice from anyone would be appreciated.

Apply from USA, yes if your points are enough with your Nigerian MSc

You are given to land before your medicals expire. You can do a soft landing and go back to US to finish your 2nd MSc.

As long as you were paid, you can add the work experience. The date you became qualified is the date you graduated from your BSc.

Hello house good evening. I have been following this page on nairaland as a guest but today I decided to register so I can ask my questions.

Firstly, i have written the ielts exam three times but I haven't been able to score up to 7 in writing. However, i am not giving up and i hope to try again.

But the situation is different this time around, I got a student visa into the US in August and i am currently doing my second masters program.

My first masters degree was in Nigeria and that was what I wanted to use for the Express entry before ielts became a stumbling block.

I am currently enjoying study in the US but this Canadian PR is a dream and i am planning to write the ielts here early next year and apply from here.

Can I apply for the PR as an international student using my first masters degree?
Also, I heard you are given one year from the date of your PR to arrive in Canada and from observation it takes around 6-12 months to get your PR. That's approximately 2 years which is the same duration for my current program. In addition, there are a number of schools in Canada offering my program, so i believe i can get admission and transfer after my PR.

Secondly, i worked about 2 years before my first msc, it was supposed to be an unpaid internship but my employer ended up paying me some money monthly to cover the cost of my transportation. With that, my work experience will be three years but without it, it will be one year and 6 months. Is it safe to include it as part of my experience?

I think our prayer on this journey should be "God grant me the grace to accept what I can't control."
SkyWalk12:
Went to dig this up cos I was stalking @Tojued ( wink )and I saw something about her throwing her timeline away. Even as I was writing the timeline, a small part of me could tell I was just making God laugh.

My timeline said PPR will come February, the thing came December. Lmao. All I’ll say is it was the right time. So no matter how hard your wait is, no matter how many times you have to call your family and friends to cry and complain and no matter how many times Nigeria vigorously frustrates you, just remember that God will not let what’s yours pass you by.

And ONLY His time is perfect.

1. No hard and fast rule. I'm sure some did as you have done. Some will put employment. Employer: NYSC.

2. After you are done.

3. Don't over-think it. I don't think it matters. I will pick the exit.

4. Search the thread.
dives:
Hello guys. Seasons greetings!!

Please I have the following questions.

1. When completing the personal activities section what did you guys fill for the one month period in which we were in NYSC camp? I am leaving it as

Activity type -unemployed
Since - March of that year to March of the same year
What I was doing - undergoing paramilitary training
Name of Employer, school facility- National youth
service orientation Camp.

How did you guys fill yours?

2. I can't see where I am to upload supporting documents or the document checklist. Is it when I am done filling all the details of the form that it takes me to the option of uploading documents?

3. For travel history, where it was asked from when to when, if i want to fill the "to" period, is it the date that was stamped by the country in question as the date I left that country, or is it the date of arrival stamped by Nigerian immigration?

4. Please Is there any group for post ITA peeps?

Thanks guys!!

I wouldn't advise that. The forms are updated irregularly on cic site, so you can't be sure you are using an outdated form unless you download from the site. And there are many forms that could be requested for.

You only need it if you are claiming sibling points. CIC will use it to verify that you and your sibling have the same parents.

Otherwise, you only need to provide your passport. (Document Checklist).

You need to submit birth certificates for your children however, to verify you are their parent.

There are contrasting information about this. Some used and some did not. Thanks a lot.

1. If you don't intend to provide reference letter, remove the work experience and fill only the personal history for him.
2. Your spouse' age does not contribute to your points, so I don't think it matters. But if you are that concerned, you can add a LOE.
Adunnee:
Hi everyone, I have two questions:

1. I am filling out my EE profile, pre-ITA, do I need to fill my husband's work experience? I am the PA. I don't intend to provide work reference letters.
2. My husband has completed his ECA but we discovered that there is a mistake in the year of birth and this came from WAEC but we did not notice the error before we sent the certificate to WES. However, we sent his birth certificate to WES and explained that WAEC made a mistake in his year of birth. To our dismay, the wrong year of birth was still quoted on the WES report. How do we resolve this issue? Will an affidavit suffice?

Thank you.

Word!

Or to try and submit application as soon as possible so one will be exempt.

2018 was updated with a 1.4% increase in required funds on January 5.
2017 was done January 27, 2017
Godisincontrol:
A quick reminder to those who are planning to submit their application between now and January. Please add a buffer to your POF as there would be an increase beginning of the year.

Remember to dot your I's and cross your Ts before submission. If possible get a second eye to look through your application.

Wish you and yours happy holidays

I don't know about IRCC checking with your bank. There was a debate about that in Thread 4.

However, you may given an ADR to re-submit your POF within 7 days and the transactions may be scrutinized. You can spend, but try to keep to within the limit as much as possible or spend and refund as soon as possible.
Uchihasasuke19:
Hello good people of NL.

I'm post AOR... And I used my statement of account and standard bank reference letter as my POF, which clearly shows my income.

Question is can I withdraw some part of the money?
Do IRCC check bank account during background checks? Has anyone ever withdrawn money used for POF after AOR and successfully got PR.

Your response will be greatly appreciated.

Mandatory: Proof of post-secondary education
Optional: scanned copies of our ECA and IELTS results (Document Checklist)

However, it is advisable to do so in case you make a mistake inputting your ECA or TRF numbers.

GozyNA:
Hello everyone. Please I want to ask the seniors in the house if it is mandatory to upload scanned copies of our ECA and IELTS results in the education placeholder. All I saw in the expandable tab was that we must upload proof of post-secondary education, however some people in an AOR group I belong to are saying it is mandatory. Please any clarification on this would be appreciated.

Chief, I don't get all these advice being given unless it is given in sarcasm.

ITA is ITA and it doesn't really matter who is PA unless they are not planning to land in Canada at the same time.

My 2cents is to follow Ifeoma's advice on login access and mail. If she really wants to use her new results, she can add it as a LOE so they can recalculate her points or they might not as it make little practical difference.

cc: @Swansy10
ontarioissauga:
Actually, decline and withdraw the profile. After, create another profile with her as the PA.
