Reading through the different posts and comments here, I must say a lot has changed and evolved since Part 1 of this thread. It’s been 5 years, of being a PR and now awaiting Citizenship callup. Started the whole journey on here, right from Part 1 of the thread. This is wishing you Ladies and Gents all the luck as you prepare your apps and patience as you await results.

As a way to give back, I live in Calgary, AB and work in 1 of the top banks as a Senior FA. Anybody landing and needing help with accommodation, transportation from airport and info on basic banking needs on landing can hit me up. I may be able to make referrals or recommendations. It’s pro bono as well.

Once again, all the best y’all.
God bless you bros! I have sent you an email, but am not sure if you can see it. Pls drop your email so we can contact you . Mine; eeonyema@gmail.com . Thanks for your charitable works

they said ten years, why are you now asking about 11 yearshuh If you read page one well or cic website you would have seen that there are no points for spouse experience gotten outside Canada. so only state in in personal history after getting ITA- someone asked same question yesterday.
Ok.... Thanks! grin

Hello Gurus in the house!@ednut1 ,@Graciouswords @canadaishome grin

Pls advice on this scenerio;

As the PA or dependant that had a previous work experience 11yrs ago (corporate job) but has been self employed after resignation till date....

1) Should this past work experience be stated anywhere in the EE application?

2) Should ONLY the self-employed status be stated as it's within the last 10years. Hence biz docs, and references from clients to suffice?

3)Does IRCC conduct background checks beyond the 10years window for work/job verification?

Answers will be appreciated pls..... wink

3. Sent emails to passportreforms@interior.gov.ng for escalation
4. Tweeted , Retweeted and tagged relevant handles; @nigimmigration

Samuelobiora19:
I think there is another way out, which is unpopular..A lady said she included her husband as accompanying after getting PPR as unaccompanied...She said it is legal tho not popular among people, maybe you can tow that path... You need to get ITA as soon as possible with that score as changes to EXPRESS ENTRY would commence from the 1st quarter of next year.. Good luck
Waoh! Pls how does this work out?
Is the EE profile still active after getting ITA and accepting it or PPR?
If you add your spouse AFTER PPR, does it require IELTS and ECA ?
Pls @Graciouswords @makano @ednut clarify..... huh

Finally got my passport last week Tuesday. God go punish them for that Ikoyi. Anyway, anybody expecting anything from Ikoyi at this point, forget about fast track o. There’s no such thing for now. They’re following strict approval to clear backlogs from Abuja.

Maybe it may change but the PCO is still very new so don’t let anybody collect your money in Ikoyi o. Enough said.

Also, if you track your passport and it’s in production, just go there to get updates or SERVICOM. I collected passport last week, and today it’s still showing production. Lol.
Waoh! Congrats ooh. #TeamIkoyi
Pls when did you capture? Was a text for collection sent?

Pls refer to page.......1 there is a link there (below and picture) about applying as self employed with details on what docs to provide and the experiences of other self employed folks.

CAC alone will NOT suffice. Your clients can write a ref letter. You cannot write one yourself.

Pls what type of reference should be used by a self employed/sole proprietorship applicant who is the PA?

Who should give such reference?
Does biz registration certificates from CAC alone suffice?

Hello Gurus,

How should this scenerio be handled?

Tope applied for admission through study route for Sept intake while still in Naija in April....

She also applied for PR through Express Entry/PNP and entered the pool in May.....

She got ITA and Nomination in July, and PPR in August. She landed in Canada 1week to school resumption....
COPR +Study permit huh

How will she adjust her status as a landed PR from an international student with a study permit? What are the processes or consequences ? Is this even possiblehuh

Answers needed to solve this puzzle!! grin
