People have been landing and will continue to land.....even when international flights were grounded pple still found a way to land....some peeps may even have landed over dis weekend sef.
Dont dull o if u hav COPR.
Download ArriveCAN App on playstore, fill prior to departure.
Have a prearranged 14 days quarantine plan upon arrival and proof perhaps(location, how to get groceries etc)
Have POF accessible in case dey ask....recently landed folks recommended Ethiopian Airline.
There's an experience of someone that landed very recently in the Living in Canada thread...u may want to check it out.
Cheers

Annettevoke:
Please any info for landing for those with post-march COPR? I heard u cant land and some are saying you can, please advise.

When someone lands in Canada...& does landing formalities & Stamping you become a permanent resident already (Attained PR status).
After some months the PR card get sent to u, but you are already a PR with social insurance number and access to relevant government benefits including siblings claiming points off u.

However, to claim sibling points you will normally need her PR card and Utility/rent bill in addition to proof of sibling.
Perhaps that's why the previous person said u have to wait till she gets her PR card...but again as long as she has landed n her documents stamped she is a PR. But giving after ITA one has 90 days to submit, I opine that the PR card will be ready before the 90 days elapses.
Cheers

Jacknn:
Please be elaborate on this,how do u mean. Re u meaning to say when the sibling lands in Canada waiting to receive the PR in few months u can start claiming points even without he/she attaining the status yet or what?

Stay blessed

Jacknn:
Woowww seriously, please give me a link or tell me the calculator app youre using??

Hi @Finaso,
Attached below is the IRCC requirements for reference letter...follow what is required and you will be fine.
Cheers

Finaso:
Oh,so the letter should only state the period I worked in the establishment. Note,there is no employment letter o

Hi,
When you land in Canada with COPR....you have attained PR status already. So points can be claimed off the landed sibling thereof
So @MamaHeaven please take note

JustMellow:
Hello MamaHeaven,

The person must be a PR/Citizen.

All the best

Congratulations baba�....all the best thru the rest of your process

sesan01:
PPR just landed oo!!!!

Best birthday gift ever!!!!

All glory to God!

PPR gist coming soon.

Stating mode of payment is not a requirement in the ref letter, best to leave it out. Don't shoot yourself in the leg

Finaso:
Good morning guys.
Does anyone have the format of recommendation from previous employer to prove years of experience where cashed was paid? I've searched all over the thread and found nothing.

It's the same English exam nothing different my sister...so choose any of them, prepare well & succeed

Efeosa5:
Hi house ,
I'd like to know the ielts site to register with. I'm confused! Idp or the bc. Please, respond. Thank u

He doesn't necessarily have to transfer to u...a bank ref letter from his bank and a letter of consent from him that you have access to the account for both of ur immigration endeavours will suffice in my opinion.

Lotusgoddess:
It's still in his account

Please explain what you mean ma...
Has he transferred to you or money is still in husband's account?

Lotusgoddess:
Please if the money is from him, will I need to provide his statement of account also or just bank letter from his bank with a LOE?

(1)NO...only POF bank requires bank letter
(2)Do u have the POF sum in the Zenith bank already? If yes get a reference letter and SOA (if applicable).
(3)In my opinion to keep it simple if the money is split btw both couple personal savings, accompanying spouse ONLY should transfer to PA savings account(Bank A) that has the bulk money. This way all you need is Bank letter & SOA from Bank A and an LOE explaining the bulk transfer from your spouse to support your immigration plans. IF all the money is from husband no need to transfer upandan just get consent letter from him that you have access to the money. Trick is keep it simple whatever u decide to do.
(4)NOOOO

Cheers Ma

Cheerfulmum:
Please fellow potential canadians I need clarification on bank certificate. I read the format from page 1. My question is:

1) Am I to get financial certificate from all the banks that I have savings with (eg Access, GTB, Fidelity) despite not using them as POF?
2) POF is coming from Zenith bank where I have a joint account with spouse which I assume is the only bank we have business of bank statement and financial certificate with.
3) Are we (couple) allowed to transfer our savings from our individual accounts to joint account in lump sums.
4) Do I at any point need to mention all the banks I bank with a letter.

Please help to avoid mistakes in my application. Thank you

With Covid-19 1st & 2nd wave and fact that some people are losing jobs in canada, this can mostly happen in a dream for now

Tonye93:
can I get an immigration visa to Canada with "a million Naira", a 3years working permit preferably, with a job, even if minute.

If it has a transcript & u can get the institution to send it via postal mail or electronically I'll suggest you go with WES. You can choose the upgrade ur report option if you used WES initially for ur BSc.
It may just come out as 1 or 2 years Postgraduate diploma. That's how past pioneers discovered the courses most persons do today

Hi Everyone,
Good evening.
Still, in the spirit of improving CRS scores, I just found a certification I did as a corper and want to know If it can be verified as this would really help improve my CRS score.
1. Does anyone know if this can be verified?and by what body?
2. This was completed in a year

Please find attached.


Please help!!!!
Thank you.

Hi,
You can combine NOCs as long as they all fall btw NOC A,B and 0 categories, the primary NOC has to be a job u worked at continuously for a year or more (which u met) the second NOC can complete the remnant 2 years.
So basically you are good to go... no need to decline ITA.
Just gather ur docs & apply.
Cheers

DataGuru1:
Hello Gurus, I’m new here please. I have been following all the updates and I’ve learnt a lot but I am at dilemma right now. I received ITA 2 weeks ago and I am planning to submit next week.

However, I’ve been advised to be careful for the below reason. I have 2 NOCs but my primary NOC only has 14months experience. My total years of work experience is 5 years. I’m told I should have used the other NOC as my primary NOC as primary NOCs should be 3years or more experience.

Do I decline and re-enter the pool? CRS is 478.

Anyone with PPR that had one year experience in their primary NOC?

Please help!

Hi,
You can prepare the gift deed yourself(type&Print)...have relevant parties sign and take to court to notarize(not necessary).
Check page 1 for sample if it's there or someone on the thread can send/share a sample to u
Cheers

Olanna95:
Please house I need help. How do I go about getting a notarized gift deed. Please treat as urgent as my days left to submit is very close. Thank you

As @Debieeee advised, take ur time to carefully go thru page 1 if you want to make a success of this journey...make notes if u must
It's not enough to do WES, the level of Credentials evaluated matters (MSc/BSc/HND+ND).
Similarly 'doing' IELTS is not enough...the grades obtained matters.
With the IELTS grades & Degree evaluated you can enter the pool and be assigned a CRS but with a low IELTS grade and/or academic Qualification one stand little chance. Again STUDY page 1!!!
All the best through the process Ma.
Cheers

MemeRoyal:
Goodevening everyone
Please I and hubby have done our Wes

Hi all,
Please I need CAD at affordable rate.
I'll appreciate if anyone can help with a reliable plug or point in the right direction....thanks
cc @ednut1 @Kekereekun123

Hi all,
Trust everyone is doing great....please I need CAD at affordable rate.
I'll appreciate if anyone can help or point in the right direction....thanks

I agree with @Iasignor, another consideration though is ur current/estimated CRS score with ur results. If its 475 & above there may be no need to remark as u will likely get ITA with reccent trend. #MyThoughts

greatdave:
Hello Experienced folks,
1st attempt IELTS results L:8.5,R:8.0,S:8.5,W:7.0
Is it advisable to remark Writing?

You remove sentiments from this ur advice ooo
Saying it exactly the way it is...Lol

listowell:
Losing 5 points could be your undoing. Let him retake the English test (possible 20pts wrt L8.0|R7.0|W7.0|S7.0), if togetherness as a family all time means a lot to guys. If not, go with the spouse unaccompanying option.

No go rope yourself with needless LOE ooo....it will only put ur application under the microscope in my opinion.
Did u genuinely work there? Get paid/commission? If yes & can be proved then no need to fear...highest they ask for proof of salary payment or send ur file to AVO for country/case-specific review as @Kekerekun said. They could even not care self and ur worry will be baseless
So many possibilities but LOE is not an option I think.
Cheers

gracechellar:
Thanks. So you mean I should explain that my dad is my boss and I work in his company?

Kekereekun123:
will the letter head not show family members as directors?

No

Grreenk:
Must reference letter show board of director's names

Hi,

Logout & sign in again perhaps on a different browser (Chrome preferably)...the error message us abnormal.

Gummygummy:
Hello house
I’m trying to fill my express entry profile and the field that requires an input of my employer/Company name keeps saying problematic yada yada. An explanation says that content should contain alpha, numeric, special characters like: . : ; () ‘@ “& or space. I’ve tried everything and nothing works.
Please any solution to this as I really want to submit my profile today

Is there another non-family "decision-making" employee in the business? He should sign the reference letter if there is.
Cheers

#PersonalOpinion

gracechellar:
Hello family, please can my daddy be the signatory on my reference letter as this is a family business?

#PersonalOpinion
No need for two deeds, money sud be sent to one of ur siblings. He/she den sends to u and do a gift deed in his name.
Cheers

titiclassy:
Please is it advisable to have 2 gift deed from 2 family members leaving in 2 different countries. Or can d 2 family members merged into 1 and only q person writes the gift deed letter and affidavit. Will the gifter(s) be asked to provide source of income statements?

I appreciate u guys always

Yes u can

r4blessing:
Good evening everyone, can I use gift deed from my elder sister?

In addition to what has been said if its possible have the company send u or reply to ur request mail that they can't provide u with a reference letter.
Attach this with the LOE as stated above. Cheers

GoodofNaija:
What of companies such as banks who won't give reference letters, Will the employment letter and bank statement/payslips be adequate for proof of employment?

God bless u real good my comrade

Jalzy29:
My Fellow Nairalanders are you coming to Edmonton and need help with landing information, Job availability, renting a place send me a private message i am willing to help. If you are coming to anywhere in Alberta as well. I am more than happy to help as well.

As @limitlessbond pointed out, certificate courses wont help him right now. Even masters may not be of any good if CRS scores surge again.
Best to channel his energy on TEF as some persons have successfully done.

Debbieeeeeee:
If you don’t mind you can take one of those certificate courses that has been and will still be discussed extensively here to help your scores go up. WRONG
Student visa means paying international student fees which is pretty high.
You can weigh all your options though.
