Ovywils:
I know Accra has released few PPRs today.
Please give us gist as Ottawa no gree shake body

Woooow! ! ! Part 11 is here.

My PPR will definitely come in this part by God's grace! Amen!

Do you have a telegram username? so I can request the Admin in Saskatchewan group to add you.

Adezeal1:
Please is there any Saskatchewan ITA group I can join?

Hello Elders in the house, Please I have been trying to login to my EE profile since yesterday after accepting a nomination and doesn't go pass continue and it will take me back to the start. I tried different browsers, used both phone and laptop and even cleared my cache and history still the same thing kept happening over and over again. Pls what can I do?

safex:
I believe as long as the MF bank is duly licensed, then you should be fine.
Just make sure any document they are giving you fully meet IRCC specifications. E.g. their FD must state that the funds are readily liquidated on demand

Thank you

kcosam:
Good morning seniors in the house, pls has anyone successfully used Microfinance bank fixed deposit or bank statement as POF for PR application?
Is POF from Nigeria Microfinance banks acceptable by the Canadian immigration?

I will very much appreciate your honest response. Thanks.

Any response pls @Graciousworld, ednut1, Missmass and others in the house, I need your input pls. Thanks

A hearty Congratulations to you Johnnybravo10. This testimony of yours is very touchy and inspiring. May God bless your home with riches and good family.

Wow! Congratulations! This 21 months wait is not easy o.

MamaJoJo:
Glory be to God. I have been Released from AVO shackles!!!
Its PPR my people
AOR March 2019..
Story will follow soon. On a huge high right now. I am floating on air..
After 21months.. Thank you God

Thanks for your response, I have tried using two different browsers (firefox and chrome ) and also cleared browser history too. But I will try again maybe using a different phone.

ShoeShineGuy:


Change browser. It does that often, as I noticed, if you use the same browser to access two different accounts. For instance, a husband logs in first and wants to use the same browser to access his wife's account.
Some have also claimed that clearing cookies has equally been helpful.
All the best.

I have been trying to login into my Gckey account and after getting to where I need to answer security question, it will take me back to another page and then display the page below. Please has anyone being experience this? Is it a network issues? Because I use different browsers and it's the same thing.

Baba, you dey vex o, hoping to land in Canada by 29th December? U no even wan make New year catch u for naija. Lol

evergold:


Is there a POST-PPR Toronto/Ontario group? I got my PPR and submitted my passport already.

ednut1:
this is a Nigerian's timeline for nova scotia. Depending on the province investment are usually 100k to 300k cad and networth of 500k to 700k cad. So check each province website for details.



*Someone's timeline*

*Entrepreneurship Testimony*

*Ola's PPR - Nova Scotia Entrepreneur Route*

Hmm, this journey...I would read testimonies and would ask myself, when will it be my turn. I turned that question to prayer to God and He showed up for me.

CRS was initially 326, hubby evaluated his masters and it moved to 327, then I wrote IELTS in August and got a slightly improved score. CRS moved to 340. Then I further evaluated my OND and CRS moved to 359 (OND that I had earlier discarded gave 19 points! Wonders !). Anyways, at this.point, I knew God had to intervene in PNP as best option for me and family.

SINP EE submission - 5th July 2018
AOR - 5th July 2018
IP - August 2018
Septeber 2018 - Wrote to SINP about change in profile

Then the wait....

In January 2019, was led in my spirit to research the business/entrepreneur route. I researched extensively and decided to apply to Nova Scotia as easier for me to meet their requirements.
2 Jan 2019 - sent expression of interest to NSNP
2 Jan 2019 - NSNP acknowledgement received
8 Jan 2019 - Invitation to apply received from NSNP
9 Jan 2019 - withdrew SINP application ( I just had peace to do this. I had a conviction there may be an issue with work experience matching. I had applied for Economists and policy researchers but I don't have any any work experience to match this. I just wanted to get in the stream then. It was the days of SINP fastest fingers)
18 Jan 2019 - applied to IRCC for exploratory visit visa
5 Feb 2019 - procedural fairness letter received ( they queried why I didnt state a prior U.S visa refusal. The truth is that at the date of my visa application submission, I had not received correspondence from U.S embassy on my visa renewal. I received correspondence on 22 Jan 2019, in which they asked me and my family ( it was a family application) to come for an interview. I wrote IRCC stating this and God showed up for me ( meanwhile, U.S embassy denied our visa renewal)
12 March 2019 - passport request for visitor visa for the exploratory visit (3 months visa given)
12- 19 May 2019 - exploratory visit to Nova Scotia
26 May 2019 - application sent to NSNP (Paper application)
28 May 2019 - application acknowledged by NSNP
12 June 2019 - NSNP interview request received
21 June 2019 - applied to IRCC for visitor visa to attend interview
20 August 2019 - eligibility review (not sure when it started just noticed change on this date)
8 September 2019 - BVL received
11 September 2019- Passport request for visitor visa for the interview ( 3 months visa given)
15- 17 October 2019 - interview trip to NSNP office in Nova Scotia. Attended interview on 16 October 2019
16 October 2019 - interview passed. Business performance agreement received
9 December 2019 - Entrepreneur letter issued by NSNP and support for accompanying dependants
10 December 2019- submitted application to IRCC
18 December 2019 - medical passed. Eligibility started. Request for additional documents (clearer scanned passport pages for me and education/work history for spouse)
19 December 2019- submitted additional documents requested
4 February 2020 - Ghost update
5 February 2020 - passport request for closed work permit visa for me, open work permit visa for spouse and study permit visas for kids (2 - a 10yr old and a 7yr old)

Under the program, PR is given after landing and successfully running the business for a year.

Revelation 12:11 " and they overcame him by the blood and by the word of their testimony..."I know my PR is sure in a year's time, as stipulated in the program guideline, by God's grace and I will share the testimony in Jesus name

�������dancing my dance, singing my song - � Jesus, you are a wonder (3x) Jesus, you are a wonder to my soul�
shouting Halleluyah �������

... Naija to Nova Scotia...

I give God all the glory. He answers prayers.

Lyrical - thanks for helping me even when you had not met me in person. I asked you lots of questions and you answered me kindly. Such an incredible personality.

Solomon ( now in Nova Scotia) - my brother from another mother that I met on this group. You kept encouraging me.

Ma IG - I would like to thank you specially for replying my DMs at those times when I was so unsure. You have never met me before; I just introduced myself from the group and you were very helpful with honest answers to my questions. And thanks for setting up this excellent group with fine people.

SINP usually takes about 4 - 6 months to process application pre-Covid 19 but now it is even longer processing time, so your husband can submit application now and hope that you ECA will be ready before they conclude his application and once you get the EE ITA then he can email SINP to withdraw his application in which case he may or may not loss the $350 application fee depending on the processing stage at the time a withdrawal notice was received by SINP.

Or
If your ECA completion time is before his SINP ITA expiration date, then you guys can wait a little while to see if your ECA will be in early enough to reject the SINP ITA after your EE ITA is sent. I will suggest you go with the first option and submit the SINP application, then skip some pages of the passport to create further delay within which your EE ITA would have landed and then withdraw the sinp application.

Chummybabyy26:
Good day everyone, please I’m new here. I come seeking advice as I am presently very confused on what discussion and path to follow. At first the plan was just SINP my husband was the one in the pool, but that route started taking forever (Covid19) and all. I decided since I was almost done with my masters program, and below 30 to go for express entry. I wrote the IELT exam and had a Band 8, using the cic calculator my point is presently at 481.

Out of nowhere SINP had a draw and sent my husband an ITA, honestly at point we are really confused. Now my issue is I can’t join the pool immediately because my Wes verification is in process, not yet completed. With this new french part way what if the scores starts skyrocketing? I understand 481 is a high score but with this EE nothing is predictable.

Our SINP nomination will expire first week of December, Please if I were a close friend or sister what would you advice me to do? Should we go ahead with the one we already have at hand? Should I wait for my Wes I’m hopeful it will be completed by the ending of November.

I’m honestly in a fix and really confused. Please advice me accordingly. God bless

emeify1:
Please is there a whassap group for those in Nova Scotia. I would like to be added. Number is 9 zero five 3 two four 5 eight zero four. Thanks

Are you currently in Nova Scotia or thinking of moving there?

kunlewoye:
I don come again, guys.

So, upon IELTS and ECA completion I submitted my profile in April (spouse unaccompanying).

New Brunswick PNP sent me an unsolicited LOI.
I responded with my EOI submission and ITA was received afterwards from NB.

Lost birth certificate. I have an old Declaration of Age affidavit. Not sure exactly what would suffice in place of an original birth certificate. Kindly advise.

Funds from a recent land sale will go toward this process. Pls how am I supposed to package my PoF?

Background info: CRS - 471.
Brother 1 in Ontario (Canadian Citizen)
Mum: Canadian PR
Brother 2 in New Brunswick (Canadian PR. Chosen as my connection).

First of all, why did you chose spouse unaccompanying when you have all these relatives in Canada as PRs and Citizen? I still wonder though.

However, I want to assume that your decision to go spouse unaccompanying was because of your CRS score right? Now that NB is interested in your profile, I want to advice that you should quickly update your EE profile from spouse unaccompanying to spouse accompanying because NB nomination will automatically add 600 points to your CRS score which will certainly guarantee your ITA in the next EE draw, this is the best time to make this change because once nomination drop on your EE profile and ITA is accepted, you can not update your profile again.

Regarding birthday certificate, the declaration of age affidavit should suffice as some applicants had successfully used it in the past, but if you are not comfortable using it, then you can get attestation of age certificate from NPC in your location.

For the POF, there are options you can choose from;
1. You can leave the money from the land sales in your account and submit your bank statement with your application.

2. You can invest the money in either treasury bill, mutual fund, or fixed deposit, and submit the investment certificate and your bank statement showing the movement of the money from your bank account to the investment.

NOTE: in all these options, you need to also submit the land sales receipt showing your name as the previous owner, or submit a gift deed if the land document was not in your name. This bit will show evidence of the source of fund.

All the best!

Hmmm, this is very informative

einsteino:
For those preparing for life in Canada, a part of the experience of driving in Canada is trying as much as possible to avoid tickets. There are a variety of them, and they could put you a couple dollars out when you least expect. They serve as deterrent and help safe guard our roads. However we try, some of us would find ourselves on the other side of the Highway traffic law. Last year, I returned home from work to meet a brown enveloped mail. It was likely from the government. I was excited and thought they were about to finally pay me my GST. However, as I opened the mail, it hit me that I screwed up. The letter read that I beat a redlight 2 weeks before and thus fined $325 for it. It's not that I didn't remember but since no one saw me when it occurred, I thought I got away. Anyways, If I didn't remember, the letter went out of it's way to help me recollect. The letter had a picture of my car and it's license plate, details of the location and time I crossed the red-light, how long the light had been red, what speed my vehicle was at before and after crossing the red-light. Basically, they had all the facts and it was difficult, if not impossible to argue that my vehicle didn't violate the extant highway traffic law.

At first, I was under the impression that I just had to part with the money I was fined. Thankfully, I found out from the letter that I could contest it in court or apply for what is known as Early Resolution. With the first option, I have to present to a Judge(Justice of Peace) the factors that mandated me to cross the light or mitigated my stopping. For example, maybe an emergency vehicle had it's siren on and the only way to make way for it was to go through the red-light. In my case, I had no excuse really... There was a lot on my mind that day, so I just didn't see the traffic light early enough. Although I hit my brakes and reversed just after I had crossed the lights, it doesn't matter because I was already in violation. So, I took the Early Resolution option.

With the early resolution option, if you live far away from the jurisdiction where the violation occurred, they let you meet by phone. This convenience was much appreciated since I was moving out of the city of London. So, I went to the court house at Dundas Street, and explained to a court staff that I would not be able to attend the resolution in person. They scheduled me for a resolution by phone and sent a letter for the new date.

Today being the scheduled date, I called 5 minutes before the scheduled time. A secretary answered the phone, she asked who I was, and then offered me two options: 1) accept a guilty plea for a reduced fine of $240 or 2) contest the charge via a Trial. Like I mentioned earlier, the way I saw it, I stood no chance if I contested the charge. The facts against me were technically correct and I was guilty as charged. So, I accepted the plea-bargain offer. At this point, the secretary informed me that I was accepting to forfeit my rights to a Trial, I confirmed. She then transfers me to a Judge and Clerk. The secretary reads my charge and informs the Judge that we had reached a plea bargain agreement. The Judge basically asks if I plead guilty to the charge and how long I would like to be given to pay the fine. I requested for 4 months. Your Worship approved my request, then says I would get a letter in the mail with instructions on how to pay the new fine.

As can be seen from the above, the process was simple and didn't take up to 10 minutes. I didn't hire any legal services, but it saved me about $85 and has given me all the time I need to raise the money. So, if you ever find yourself in violation of a red-light camera ticket, I suggest you at least try an Early Resolution. The only issue there maybe is that it may conflict with your work hours and maybe for some of you, the money saved would not be worth the opportunity cost.

Another point to note is that however you plead, there is no demerit points to your driving record(the secretary would inform you of this) and it doesn't impact your car's insurance premium. This is because the charge is against the owner of the vehicle rather than the driver. This is different from when a police officer pulls you over for violating a red-light. In the case that it is a police officer that issued you the ticket, the fine is much lower than that of a red-light camera's. However, you'd get demerit points if you plead or are found guilty. As you may know, the problem with a police ticket is that your insurance premium would spike. Depending on where you live, you would spend an extra $1000 to $2000 in insurance premium over the next 3 years for this.

Sorry sir, posting a third party link is against the rule here, but I will advice you Google Canadavisa website for the AIPP thread. You can't miss it, it's a very popular website.... One love.

Richdee1:


Please can u drop the thread link in which Indians , Asians and Filipinos are much present in there?? thanks

I have known @Justmellow from the Student visa thread and he has been doing a great job there which has helped a lot of student seeking for study visa. However, I also understand the concerns of @Ednut & @Otege regarding the success of AIPP application from Nigeria. I say this because I have been on the AIPP nairaland thread for more than a year and no single person from Nigeria has been successful in getting a job offer from the designated employers in the affected provinces with the exception of one nice dude with the moniker @Frankrobbin1 who has also done great Job on the study visa thread as well, am sure @Justmellow will definitely remember him. @Frankrobbin1 is the only person I have seen/heard that successfully got a job offer from one of the province and applied through the AIPP which his application has taken over 10 months without approval yet as the time I left the AIPP thread to join the EE thread. I remembered we were asking him how he was able to get the job offer but he said it was through LinkedIn and afterward, several of us had tried using his LinkedIn method without any success so far, so I believe it all down to LUCK after all. So I think @Justmellow is a nice guy and has not done wrong by referring the moniker to AIPP thread but there should be a caveat saying GETTING A JOB OFFER IS THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE FOR THIS IMMIGRATION ROUTE. @Ednut & @Otege are not wrong either by expressing there reservation about that immigration route due to the challenge in getting a job offer from Nigeria, I also have my reservation about the AIPP because I have tried it in the past. But our LUCK differs, it's only from the Indian thread you will see lots of success stories about AIPP, the Indians, Chinese, and Philippians always get job offers and immigrate using the AIPP route. So I think we should allow people do their own further research and make their decision on any immigration route suggested here but at the same time we need to also add NOTE of the possible difficulties on those route.

All you guys are doing great here.... One love guys.

Zeus04:


@Ednut @Otoge, I really don't see what he has done wrong here. He simply directed the fellow that asked for help towards the right direction in his findings and research. Sometimes you may not need to know everything before you can show someone where to look which I think he has done here.

Mind you, it's not everything u get advice on in here you just swallow down... It's often advisable to also do your own findings before adopting anything. Hence, since he has directed the fellow, it's up to him to go out there and hustle for the information if he is really interested in the immigration thingy. Perhaps, if successful for him, he can come back and share.

@JustMellow, nice one o!

Please kindly add me up to PNP Whatsap group as well for SASK. NS. NB. ALB. NF. MB & any other available ones. 08126988000. Thanks

I am preparing for Study permit for my ward, Admission letter gotten, fees paid, currently processing visiting visa. Are there pre-steps I can take to make my study visa application faster (I do read people talk about Medicals done before hand etc.)

You will get all the answers you seek and many more from the student thread. This thread is basically for work permit or PR through the Atlantic immigration pilot program AIPP. check the student thread.

Frankrobbn1:


It's mostly taken in Nigeria as a paper base test.

75k for British Council
68k for IDP.

Wow! The difference in price is really much, I guess IDP will be having more candidate and I hope booking for test date won't have to be like two months ahead.

Anywherebuthere:


Let me give you a few scenarios.
1. Bsc Nigeria and Masters foreign
a. Present both- WES will ask for WAEC
b. Present Masters- WES will not ask for WAEC

2. Bsc foreign, Masters Nigeria
a. Present both- WAEC required
b. Present Masters- WAEC required.

3. Bsc and Diploma Foreign and or Masters foreign
a. Present all- WAEC not required.

I hope this helps

Thanks

Anywherebuthere:
That the OP is Nigerian doesn't matter. Some people have foreign degrees and have WAEC but in those cases WAEC is irrelevant as WES will not request for it.
Thanks for your help and support here.

Please are you saying that if one has a foreign certificate like masters degrees or PGD from places like UK or USA after B.Sc in Nigeria, WES will not request for your WEAC if the person is presenting both the Nigerian B.Sc and the foreign master degree? Or are you referring to people that have only undergraduate degree from foreign schools?
