Ladies & Gentlemen,

I raised CSE 2 days ago requesting the current status of my application and today I got an e-mail response from CIC with the below excerpt;
Q: Abeg, does "Application Approved" mean PPR or just that the application is approved for review?

Caption below;

Bro, i was charged 330.19 to a CAD last night. I spoke with their shit hole customer service this morning and they claimed that that os what it is, and that their usd now goes for 465 naira

Card transaction?

mzkomsy:
I learnt that it's possible to also mail transcript to them but the mail has to be initiated by the institution....so many bad reviews about this ETX-NG

They are very useless.

AyabaS:
After a long ass wait, I finally got ITA yesterday. Application submitted. Stanbic rate @ 293

Congratulations. Which of the provinces nominated you?

ultrazone:
Congrats. I think we should start dropping the bank rates. I’m still shocked reading that Access Bank rip off.

Access Bank rip off ke? It was 279.3 as of Monday. That's definitely competitive and one of the best right about now.

mobenjackson:
I feel irritated from the depth of my soul when i see this "gave" of a word... They don normalize am sef is more annoying... Terrible lots.

Lmaooo. You get strength. Me no dey even bother again sef lol

ednut1:
i gave ielts already. Should i gave TEF

Exactly!!! Na dem

Revman:
I dey there ooo, I couldn't just believe the sort of things that were being written over there. I have unwatched the thread this evening. Make person no carry im negativity come infect my optimism.

Those guys are crazy lol. You go see person wey get 481 dey ask what his chances are. Very funny.

Influential101:
So because you've a CRS of 480, you think the job market will favour you over someone with Canadian education and experience ? Funny

Also, wetin concern CRS with value add? Many people don't even work in their fields upon landing, while many go back to school... anyone can add value, no be CRS matter... so those who got ITA with less than 420 in the past no be quality ?

We pray that CIC does general draw but this your line of thought no follow..sorry.

At the bolded, this isn't about doing what favours me. Rather, it's about what supports the country's economic growth. Canada made most money from immigration last year (check bloomberg). Most of these monies came from students, temporary immigrants and permanent immigrants (most notably, outland). No immigrant goes to Canada to lazy around; people might not get what they want exactly but regardless of what they are able to get, one thing is certain - taxes. It doesn't matter what experience you have, the most important thing to their economy is that you are filling the job space and in-turn becoming another source of IGR. Not to even mention the funds you go in with from your home country (money that wasn't made off their economy).

They tilted towards CEC candidates not because they are much better than the FSW candidates but because they probably would spend less time gathering their documents and also verifying such documents; most of the things they need can be gotten in Canada.

If they feel CEC holds much better value than FSW, they would have done specific draws for them in the past, don't you think? The only advantage they had over an FSW candidate is the waiver of POF, and that's because they believe many of them are already working and paying taxes.

My thoughts still do not hold waters?

KsMom:
A FSW draw will be a blessing this day.

I don't think a draw would happen today. It's highly likely that the next draw (next week) would be a general one though, because I believe the CRS threshold for CEC are now pretty low. They can't keep ignoring quality all in the name of favouring the inland applicants. Leaving someone with 480 to pick someone with 445 might not exactly add the value they seek to their economy.

Eraytee:
That’s the headache attached though, but I think the first FSW draw should be in the 460s base on the present CRS distribution.

I'm going to predict between 467-469. Based on the chart from the last draw, there were less than 3900 candidates above 470 and they took out candidates from that chart the last time. Should there be a general draw anytime soon, the score will hover around the late 460s. And certainly, a general draw right now would take more FSW applicants because the majority of high scoring CEC candidates left the pool already.

ochampions:
The B.Sc is 4years.
[1quote author=lasignor post=88969936]Did you use the NCE to gain admission for the BSc?

Also, how many years is your BSc?

It will count alongside the NCE as two or more certificates.

ochampions:
Please I want to ask. Can one claim NCE (3years) and B.Sc. two certificates for my partner?

Did you use the NCE to gain admission for the BSc?

Also, how many years is your BSc?

GoodofNaija:
Many thanks! But I don't have access bank card. Did GTbank stop it because of the pandemic or what could it be?

Yes, they stopped because of the pandemic.

For the Access Bank Card, you can walk into any of their branches, open an account and get the card instantly.

GoodofNaija:
Good day my people, please am currently trying to pay for my WES using my gtbank/firstbank (naira mastercard) atm card but its not going.

This is the response am getting "Unable to process your selected payment method. Please make sure the entered information is correct and up-to-date. For international cards, please contact your provider for assistance".

I have checked all the information i entered and they are correct and up-to-date.

Pls can someone give me a clue or solution to the problem? Thanks in advance!

I know for certain that GTbank has stopped transactions that involve the usage of their DCC (Dynamic Currency Converter) system. Maybe First Bank followed suit. Try Access Bank card, should be fine.

ghini:
Greetings.
Quick question..
Has anyone here recently travelled to Canada with COPR for first landing in the past weeks after travel exemptions were announced?
Please share your experiences of you have or have relevant information.
Cheers!

I don't think anyone has been able to. I was supposed to travel on 27th March, the flight was cancelled until further notice.

Vee2209:
Good evening everyone,

I noticed the last draw from the pool was just for CEC.

Do they generally select from FST, FSW, CEC or PN? Or they rotate the four type of application, bi monthly?

It is the current predicament of the world that paved way for specific draws. Prior to covid-19 era, IRCC conducted general draws and most of these classes are usually eligible. They conduct FST-only draws sometimes but not often. Covid-19 has changed the dynamics and they seem to be interested in people that have been to Canada for work/studies and people that are in Canada at the moment.

Let's hope everything mellows in the coming weeks, hopefully, we will get to see general draws again.

This is the height of it all. Is it by force to donate money?

Closed Deal

Good day,

You aren’t responding to your chats on Whatsapp.

I need 2009/10 ACURA TSX.

What’s cost should I be looking at?

Thanks

Fabmummy:
Thanks. The person ended up using zenith bank

What was the rate?

phabulous88:
Honestly I don’t know if WES accepts statement of result in lieu of certificate. But it seems like some guys used statement of result in the past and they were successful.
See link - https://www.nairaland.com/2624318/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/41#41518115

They do.

Kekereekun123:
mr gainfully employed in France but is trying to enter Canada yet bad mouthing same canada. Confused like his mentor nnamdi kanu. Many get good jobs in canada. For those who cant get what they want most go back to school to improve or change careers which is funded by grants in some cases 100% while others use proof of funds or loans.

Stop arguing with that guy, he doesn't have anything good to offer. He's here to create bad vibes for the hopefuls here. Immigrants need to adjust to life in any country regardless of the continent. Anyone thinking it's all rosy doesn't know jackshit. Immigrating to any country is just the beginning, you have to be ready to do what it takes to be successful.

He claimed he's gainfully employed in Europe. Maybe he is but did he find job straight off the airplane? Make he even tell us the country wey he dey sef.

Kekereekun123:
cec is part of the pool already. A cec may not be in canada at the. Moment. He may have done one year experience in the past. So he will need pof

Absolutely true. My bro is CEC but isn't in Canada at the moment. He recently got ITA.

michaelf284:
Usually, I've learnt to read comments & let it slide.
But this? The temptation to say something pulled too strong...
For starters, with the recent spike in CRS score required to get ITA, most applicants have MSc (Foreign&Nigerian) or professional degrees, meaning these are persons who have good education & sometimes in European universities.
In a country with proper infrastructure, most of these persons with quality education and enviable work experience and certifications should be gainfully employed & enjoy high standard of living. But not in Nigeria, people with little or no education loot funds that could be channelled to improving the economy, basic amenities and the country at large.
To carefully plan and act on the need to improve your chance at a fair treatment and to improve the quality of life accessible to your family is not despiration my brother. It's common sense.
With this little explanation I hope I've been able to confuse &not convince you #inBrodaShaggy'sVoice

Cheers mate✌

The pun

ProudBiafran:
What the hell are you saying? What an idiot you are. Was the advice for you? Busy body who thinks he knows anything. Yes, almost 40 and I am gainfully employed in Europe. Who is taking about age here? Steet clear and watch your step.

Canada takes loads of immigrants but how many get jobs like engineering or medicine. straightaway ?

As an Engineer you cannot sign off work and have to be shadowed by a Canadian Professional Engineer until you become one.

Salary rates for Engineers and doctors are better in Europe too.

Engineers and medical doctors cannot practice immediately. If you wanna work as an uber driver then yes Canada can give you that more easily than Europe would.

If you are are into medicine, go to Europe. Simple

The bolded is totally unnecessary.

remaj:
Hello all

Urgent pls

Please do you need to show proof of funds for express entry when you have a job offer and presently working in a province you got their provincial nomination(under employment) for federal skilled worker

You don't need funds if you have a job offer that is valid for at least 6months.

ednut1:
true the rate is already too high. But this is Nigeria it may still go higher or even lower. On telegram and whatsapp groups of people in canada already they still exchange CAD to naira at 280 to 285.so one can sell his or her Naira when they land

Exactly.

LegitDiva:
Please I have a question regarding POF.
Is it better to change it and open a dollar account in light of the recent economic situation? Will that affect the expected timeline?

Not necessary. Use xe.com for your conversion and let there be surplus funds - like a thousand CAD extra. Fluctuations can't take the whole CAD 1,000 away.

Changing your funds to USD at this point in time might make you lose money on the long run because once the major players in the currency markets steady their ships, normalcy shall return. You don't want to be buying dollar at 420 and be selling at 365. As of today, CAD rates at Access Bank is #277 to c$1. You can always use bank rates too, just add surplus to the funds and you will be alright.

I used my Naira account for mine. At the time, the 12,960 was supposed to be about 3.6m but I left 4m in the account and it was totally fine.

Cheers.

oliverjiad:
500k would duly get it cleared

Jaid

Can a car of more than 15years be cleared at the port?

cmoney22222:
Thanks sir , was charged 20$ for 8508.50as at today

That's super ridiculous. That's roughly #425 to $1. Crazy.

cmoney22222:
Sir pls what’s the rate for accessbank per usd

Last time I used them for an online transaction (last Thursday), they charged 395 per $1. You will have to check the usd equivalent of what you are trying to pay then mulitply by, say, #400. Shouldn't be up to that but to be on a the safe side, do it that way.

Cheers.
