nagode!

Baba based on logistics, you have about 8 days to CoPR. Congrats in advance bro

Divinegifts:
Emm let's assume the position being used by the PA to claim points was for 3 years and PA changed role to another position for only 4 months before resigning from the company and not claiming any points with the 4 months position as it's a different NOC, should the employment reference letter have the two positions or just the 3 years used to claim points

PS: PA had 2 different supervisors for the 2 positions and not interested in claiming more points with the 4 months position but wishes to include it under personal history.

I did not say he should put his program on hold. I said he should do short landing and then go and do his program ooooo. Short landing can even be a day trip from the US .

nat138:
But then if it's 3 of 5, he can land, go do his two years masters programme in USA, then settle back afterwards in Canada for the next 3 years..

keni:
You mean 3 of 5 years?

happytbaby:
Mcstan, you pointed out that 2 of 5 years, even though I think it's 3 of 5 years, whichever case it is, it means he can go to Canada to activate his residency status and then go back to the US to complete his studies. After his studies, he can then settle down in Canada and still get citizenship.

@ original poster, Google "short landing Canada" for more information. Actually you can eat your cake and still have it.

dislat:
Congratulations to all the ITA recipients. I have something bordering my mind. I am to resume in fall for my MSC in USA with funding. My PPR is likely to be around that time as PEBC is awaiting transcript from my alma mata.
I want to go for my MSC by fall because of the funding. When the PR call arrives, is it possible for me to go to Canada to finalise the PR thing for just a week and then return to US to finalise my study? Or must I stay for certain period of time in Canada before being able to travel out for study and other stuffs?
I need your submissions.

jelmusboy:
Response pls

happytbaby:
It is on the place holder, if you do not have it, explain that your employer does not issue.

However, people should not start bombarding me with 'I did not submit it and I got PPR', no one is saying you cannot get PPR without paystubs, I 'only pointed it out to Newmum so that people reading the thread do not feel that it is not a required document.

Thank you all.

Emmasonic4me:
You go fear timeline na...

I guess you're new here so not used to our pattern. At least I can understand it has been a long journey for you. Glory be to God for the success at last.

Congratulations!

Hello family, got the golden mail today. Here's my timeline...
AOR: 1st Sept 2017

PPR: Feb 7th.

Guitarlife:
Blood of Habakuk ! I am a guy

No vex my guy. Oya come chop small knuckle

@ Guitarlife:

The verdict is in : go and sin no more and use face value.

happytbaby:
Funny enough I cannot see where to quote GlitteringStar for some weird reason so ayam quoting both of you.

I am not saying CIC will ultimately disqualify it, I am talking about the technicality of what a TB is worth at a point in it's life. I am okay with points 2 and 3.

If you decide to sell a TB prior to maturity you will sell it at a discount to face value however it should be higher than how much you paid for it initially (provided that interest rates have not moved up and your value gone down), this is a reasonable assumption since you would have expected to have earned some interest during the period you had the TB (holding period return). If you want to sell it today you cannot sell at face value.. ..it naturally follows that no one will buy it for the same amount that it will be redeemed in the future.

CIC aside, l was coming from the logical stand point of "I do not have that face value as at this moment and would not compare the exchange rates of today with a value of tomorrow, I will compare like with like" but this is me, it does not have to be what Guitarlife or any other person would do, I always prefer to be as safe as possible.

To answer Newmum, If I have 2 discounted instruments and they both have a tenor of 1 year but one has 2months to expiration, I will be more comfortable to use Face Value for the one expiring in two months time, I have already earned 10 months of interest .

For things like this, I guess CIC will most likely just let it slide because writing a rejection letter on the basis of POF saying that the DV is less than POF whilst FV is sufficient will be too 'one-kind'.

MRSDA:

Still waiting for ur Coy to pay Feb salary sha

Obi1conte:
That amount won't go round oh!!! I suggest u increase it.

We don too yeye for here sha . Include me in the sharing formula abeg.

Talkingboy:
All I can do is just to ignore your post., for peace to reign!!

Shalom.

Mr Know it all.

I understand your anger brother but you know what? Do not take it too much to heart. Most (if not all) of us here have regular jobs while also attending to questions here. Believe me, you'd likely be pissed off when you answer a particular question 4 times in successive pages of the same thread, whereas the inquirer could've just flipped a few pages back to find the answer they seek. Canadianfly or Elfmann would've given you a response that could rock you to the core .
Also note that not all of us have the same tolerance threshold for such avoidable repetitions.
Still on this same page 255, people have been referred to page 0. That page is richly blessed. If you had done a bit of back-flipping, you'd have seen the need to go visit that page. If you read this thread well enough, you will see how folks go out of their way to do research on behalf of others in a bid to give credible answers. So please take it easy, read page 0, come back here and ask the same Emmasonic your particular question and I bet my February salary that he'd respond. We are all learning here, one way or the other.

Thank you for your understanding

Hi All,
This crs tool is doing me somehow. I simulated my points twice and I didn't make 400. So, I decided to come to the ELDERS here incase there's something I'm not calculating correctly.

I'm the PA
Age: 34
Msc
7 years working experience
IELTS : 8,8,8,8 (WITH GOD and good prep)

Spouse:
Age: 32
Bsc
4 years working experience

Spouse will also sit for IELTS and her Degree will also be evaluated.

With this profile, can get above 400 points?

Freeman59:
Bro sorry how old are you and do you have a master's degree?

I'm guessing he's below 30, with a masters degree, 3 or more years of work experience and single. That combo with the IELTS score would give exactly 475

Oopsy:
I got encouraged here, so I'm also back to encourage another yet again... On IELTS

1st attempt: LRSW - 7.5,8,8,7
2nd attempt: LRSW - 8.5,8,7,6.5

Requested EOR on Speaking and Writing and after 10 weeks, my results came:

LRSW - 8.5,8,8.5,8. CRS did triple long jump from 374 to 424!

happytbaby:
Strolling past. Looks left and right, balances my gele, faces my busy life

Mcstan how market? Did I miss your IELTS result or you did not take write take the test?

happytbaby:
The spouse has educational qualification. He should include it and check no where he is asked whether it was asessed or not, then he will get placeholder for her education, he should put the unassesed certificates. It is not a problem.

sthillz:
They used to accept online card payment when i wrote my first ielts in 2015.

Was surprised it was no longer an option this year and yes bank draft is alot simpler option. I couldn't submit on Friday so im submitting my bank draft bright and early tomorrow

jelmusboy:
I filled in her education history but I picked NO in the question that was asked if I did ECA for her or not. So, I wasn't awarded any point for it.

I think that's the way to do it.

engrjoseph208:
pls I want to start the express entry but I have a question. I am planning my wedding later this year, if i start as a couple I might not get ITA as my points will have reduced. If i start as single, i will get ITA immediately. Is it possible I start now b4 wedding and after getting ITA nd submit my application, I should get married, can I include my new wife or is it not possible? I intend to provide enough POF for two people right from d beginning of my application. Sorry for my typos.

Gurus in d house pls help me.
