Lol. I think it should not be a problem.

From my personal experience, I think it's okay to upload both passports. (if you like Nigeria enough to get a Naija passport issued for your child )

In my own case, I uploaded both the Nigerian and American passport for my kids.( I have 2) and we got PPR on the 21st day.

Going by CIC's rule of uploading all pages with markings on travel documents, I uploaded both passports. My decision was driven by the fact that they have their entry and exit stamps as well as their Nigerian travel visa on the American passport. (Initial visa obtained to bring them back home after birth).

For Passport submission, only the data page of their American passport is required by experience, but I sent both passports after reading @folamigo's post.

Application got approved on CIC profile on the 12th of September but yet to receive COPR thanks to my brothers in Accra.(Still waiting for Pickup mail).

Note: Only spouse and I have visa numbers generated on CIC profile. (issued for our very green Naija passports).

It is therefore evident that citizens of visa exempt countries will only get COPR since their passports can get them into Canada.

Slowlybtsurely, I saw my Bigbroda - Bigfido giving a Kissoflife to a damsel Toyogirl well known as Hephgirl, her eyes beaming like a GlitteringStar. Definitely both were Crazyinlove displaying their affection under a Lovetree. Unknown to them, there was a Canadianfly about giving a Kontagious sting.

Because Godisawesome, they were able to meet Drhopeful who like a Ballerz gave a Billy treatment.

All these happened while we all wait to receive a Judgment that has seen a Blackbuddy and a Merrymum (40manlappy and Mummyjaygirls) spending Winter with JustinTrudeau.

At the end, we all will testify to having an AwesomeGod.

Kontagious sting . Weh don Sir.

Abeg give Wura27 the Kontagious sting

If she gets a new test result with a minimum of 7 in reading and other scores remaining constant, then her crs score will jump to 431 without Ielts & Eca for accompanying spouse.

MRSDA:
Really 2 months from AOR to Medical passed? It's ok...pass me the popcorn and the soda, get me some good movies while at it. I pray we don't have to wait that long.

Relax MRSDA! Average time from AOR to medical passed has reduced to 10-15 days for FSW- Outland since end of July. PNP timeline still longer.

I submitted my application on the 10th of August and got med passed on the 22nd of August.

Owlette:
Hey people! Please for you guys that have completed your wes evaluation please did you have to pay for both the transcript AND the verification with your school or just the transcript?

Depends on your tertiary Institution. Most schools respond without additional payment, while a few will only respond at a fee.

Dammie2017:
My POF is in gtb and I have a savings account. They said they only issue reference letters on current accounts. What do I pls.

[quote author=Dammie2017 post=60279910]Not a problem! Get your stamped six(6) months statement from them, and upload with LOE that your bank refused to issue a reference letter on a savings account.

You can decide to do an overkill by getting GTB to document their response and uploading with your LOE.

Best Wishes.

Hello everyone. Am new to this forum. Aor is June. Hubby is the principal applicant. After waiting for 3 months , cic sends us a message for "additional info ie schedule A form for me to fill. Am really scared as I don't want to make mistakes. Please any tips or advice would be helpful. Also, our background status after medical passed says " we are processing your background check.... what stage are we in?? Lastly, after uploading the additional info, how long does it take for cicto make a decision. Thanks in anticipation.

Question 1: Start from the most recent activity and work backwards until your 18th birthday or 10 years. Be thorough, no gaps and include ALL activities.

Put most recent address first and work backwards.

Question 2: Your are in IP2

Question 3: CIC is unpredictable, timeline can be a day to 30days after submission.

Good news is that you are almost at the finish line.

Best Wishes!

flyboi1:
noc is 1114 or 6235

anyone should fly.

NOC is fine.

Second option is to recalculate your eligibility for FSW using the 6 factor test. See link below.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

You need to score minimum of 67/100

* Glitteringstar has nailed it.

4Barr:
Hello House, can someone comment on this relative thingy for the express entry. I am getting confusing info on CIC website.

One says just your sibling (brother or sister)

another says;
Relatives in Canada
You, or if it applies, your spouse or common-law partner, have a relative:living in Canada
18 years or older and
a Canadian citizen or permanent resident
This relative must be a:

parent
grandparent
child
grandchild
child of a parent (sibling)
child of a grandparent (aunt or uncle)
grandchild of a parent (niece or nephew)

Please can anyone who has claimed point for relatives in Canada shed more light before one misrepresents to CIC, i intend to use the one in Bold above.

Thanks

One in bold gives you 5 points under eligibility only( I.e the six factor test to determine eligibility for FSW). Graded over 100

Sibling will give you 15points on the express entry scale. Graded over 600 as well as 5points for eligibility.

[quote author=Hamiltondreamer post=59451357]You were obviously below 67/100 in the six factor eligibility test. (Aunt/Uncle) in Canada will boost your eligibility score by 5 points but not give additional points on express entry scoring scale.

Modified.

It is cumulative.

If you have spent 6 months or more in the last 10 years or since you were 18, u will need a U.K PCC.

Please take the 6 factor test using the attached link.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

You need a minimum of 67/100 to be eligible for FSW.

Best Wishes.

This really is the most confusing part for me. Any inputs?[/quote]Inferring from the attached extract from CIC, you can see the importance placed on graduate and post graduate study in addition to a 3 year study. I think college study will fall in the category in the exception quoted.(I.e secondary school & high school).

My opinion (remember that i'm not an authority or VO), please tell your friend to err on the side of caution and select a bachelors Degree.

mecuryf:
They claimed they will issue the pcc once the new prints are sent ,pls how do i contact them to follow throu wih this as i have less than a month to submit to CIC please do u still have the phone number /email that u reached the agents with.Many thanks

See below:
Options.
1. Call FBI @ +1(304) 625-5590 Monday to Friday 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM EST
2. Write to identity@ic.fbi.gov with you full name and date of birth.

Please share your experience on this, because all I have heard is that you will need to start all over. Best wishes.

nkigirl:
HR professionals in the house.. Has anyone tried to get the CPHR? Heard it is a prerequisite for HR jobs. Does anyone know the exact procedure? Check online but its all so confusing.

I would hate to move to Canada(God willing ) and sit for a few months idle due to certifications or professional licensing. Anything I can do now, let me start.

@ Nkigirl, it depends on your target province, as the designation must be issued by one of the 9 members. I believe almost all members except CPHR BC & Yukon expect you to be present in Canada and pass the NKE before getting the designation.

Morbolar:
Hello peeps...pls do i need US police cert if my cummupative trips to the US adds up to 6months or more. Or is it just a single trip.

Cumulative

@ mecuryf - Average processing time for FBI PCC is now between 12-14 weeks. See attached tracker for info.

https://myimmitracker.com/en/us/trackers/fbi-summary-check-tracker/fullscreen

I sincerely do not have answers to your questions. You may need to call the numbers on the PG school page or visit LAUTECH. I however consider it a great opportunity to pay the current transcript fee of 5k.(Incase they decide to take the path of OAU).

@40manlappy

Use this link http://pgschool.lautech.edu.ng/payments/index.php

@ damidamsel
Call or visit your bank to request for a USD card. You can then source and load the desired amount in USD on the card.

@Dafinest4life
Did you get the decision mail today? If yes, then it took 11 working days. Cheers

@ Dafuninest4life

Got same mail without reference number in March, and my application was approved. You honestly can't know until you open your package.

Your passport should be ready for pickup a day after the mail since it's Lagos. All the best!

Finally, when did you submit @ Ikeja TLS? Trying to get an idea of the current timeline.

God bless our gallant soldiers
