With the separation granted in court, won't her husband still need to submit PCC and medicals?
Not when you are legally separated, you have no liability towards that person to some extent.

Oh good!! lol. Pardon me, I am an Engineer, so my knowledge is limited when it comes to legal issues.

I believe, this might be the best way for her to go about it if she is sure she is "done" with the marriage.

I am not sure indicating separated and just LOE will work. She will need to show evidences that the divorce process has started. If not, she will have to get him to provide a sworn statement that they are separated, that he has no intention of reconciliation, no intention of ever immigrating to Canada, and agrees that she can never sponsor him for immigration, then IRCC may accept that.
A separation status is also not by word of mouth. Filing for divorce does not equate separation. To file as separated, she also needs to file processes in court. That procedure is faster because you are saying we have issues that may or may not be resolved but for now I need to absolve my self of the legal liability as a spouse so court separate us. Judges are more inclined to grant such orders faster as there is still an opening for settlement.

[Thanks, but this tells me summarily that I need a consultant, I cannot do it myself because even if I get a normal FIDA lawyer, the person might not know the requirements for Canadian Express entry for this case, note that age is not on my side and a man who is a gold digger, who as refused to talk/reason and is just going aftet his own interest will not sign any affidavit or give a legal divorce easilyquote author=Dammiehar post=57304452]Being divorced or separated is not going to stop you from getting your PR if you can provide legal documents to back it up. I believe what some people are saying is that getting a divorce might take a long time, that is why you need to get a lawyer. Also if you can get your husband to sign an affidavit that you guys are separated,or in the process of getting a divorce and he is not willing to migrate to Canada through you now or in the future, I think you should be good. You really need to talk to a lawyer.
I think you are missing the point. You don't need a consultant to do your EE process from start to finish. You however need a lawyer to change your marital status. You better don't use a consultant that will input Wrong information and get you into trouble. If the price you will pay for being in a marriage you don't want is to allow him be an accompanying spouse so as to get this visa, my sister manage him and get you visa. All you need need to do is coarse him to get medicals start from today. All you need is your EE no. You don't need to have ITA for that. My sister every thing in this life is with sense. Divorce will take at least a year. The judge will always advocate for settlement except there is reported case of domestic violence reported and documented. That will take 3plus months.

Hi, generally I think its preferable that the occupation on your marriage certificate should be in sync with your occupation / job at the time of marriage or at the time the certificate is dated; the job itself will appear in your work / personal history).
I am not too sure, but maybe the LOE may work, if in your case you explain that it was a temporary job while he was looking for a permanent role in his preferred occupation.
Others knowledgeable should please advise.
This is a good advice. It's always good to be upfront about any discrepancies

Dis gave me a soothing relief to a little extent. I've been feeling very bad since d last 16 hours cos I couldn't sleep dat I checked my result around 3am today being d release day. It's my 2nd IELTS. I had LSRW-7.5,7,7,7 in d 1st one and hoped to get 8777 in d May 25th IELTS. I did as advised here, treated almost 60 listening exams downloaded on youtube and started getting between 35-38 after treating about 40. I felt I was good to go but really disappointed to score LSRW-7.5,7.5,6.5,7. The exam was tougher than d first one I did I'm sure so luck/God's favor is key. Really scared to rewrite dis IELTS of an exam again sef. Does anyone know what's delaying Manitoba PNP? They said they were clearing backlogs and would start afresh on May 15 with d introduction of CAN$500. They even said they would do d next draw after May 15 cos they've not done any this year. Till date, nothing has been heard. Partially thinking PNP mhen!

What's d name of dat other accepatable english exam option u see when filling d EE form sef? Does d exam take place in Naija at all? If yes, has anyone taken it before? What's it like? It's like IELTS is now gradually turning into WES o, any IQAS out there?

Without a divorce or a separation you cannot file for EE as a married person. I advised earlier get yourself a lawyer.

When they asked for my updated documents, they asked for letter from my current employer fortunately i hadnt resigned. if you intend to resign make sure you have something fetching you some money which should reflect in your statement of account because they also asked me to prove salary payment by way of statement of account in a place where i claimed to have worked in 2012.

Optionese I see u are using a gift deed.
I am the principal applicant and my mum sent the pof to my spouse from her company account and he forwarded it to me.

The question now is do I just need a gift deed from her saying that she gave us and is it ok that she sent it from her company account t.

Seniors please contribute

I don't think you need a gift deed from your mum
. A LOE stating that your husband transfered the money to you is sufficient. That's what I think.

Hi dear. I uploaded my marriage certificate under the slot for that and uploaded an affidavit of change of names and newspaper publication under the slot for legal name change because I already had those documents. If you don't, I think you can just upload the marriage certificate in both slots.

@ persons with concerns about the recent ruling on LGA marriage certificates. I believe someone had mentioned here that laws are not retroactive. Go to the registry and attempt to get a replacement for it as the news article stated, otherwise use it like that. The ruling addressed LGA certificates that were customised and did not conform with the Form E.

@ymummy, my wait was barely weeks but felt like years. I request for gcms notes twice. Lol! I logged into my cic account severally. Just hang in there.
Thank you.

Hi there please through my 7 Steps IELTS Prep Process

@onosgregg 7 Steps IELTS Coaching Method
@onosgregg IELTS step-by-step prep/coaching method
Step 1: Evaluation test
My very first engagement with an IELTS client is to conduct an evaluation test. That way we I am able to ascertain my client’s strengths and weaknesses before we get in the prep and coaching proper.
Step 2: Understanding IELTS test-band descriptors (Get in the mind of an IELTS examiner)
After conducting the first evaluation test, I then walk my clients through the IELTS test-band score. That way I help my clients get in the mind of the IELTS examiner. Basically understanding what’s expected of you.
Step 3: In-depth coaching and exercises for all 4 IELTS modules
This is by far the most essential and critical stage of my coaching process with a client. This is where we carry out actual exercises for all modules; Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening.
Step 4: Evaluation test
After carrying out thorough coaching and exercises we then conduct a second evaluation test. This time to see marked improvement in the client’s proficiency.
Step 5: Reinforce your understanding of IELTS test-band score
Reinforcing the IELTS band descriptors will impress in the mind of my client the need to get in the mind of examiner and be prepared to write and test by the rule.
Step 6: Walk through coaching and exercises
A walk through coaching and exercises will get my client prepared for our final evaluation test.
Step 7: Final evaluation test
On this final stage, the final evaluation test I get my client prepared for his/her IELTS proficiency test.

Not many IELTS tutors follow this process. However, this is a tested method. Please drop a comment share and repost.
Please drop me a message if it sounds good to you.
Onos we don't advertise products here, keep it moving.

Not divorced or separated yet but considering it if need be, he does not have health issues, just thinking aloud in case he has since one has to submit the spouse's medical certificate even if he isnt accompanying. Also think he was not totally truthful on his place of work at the US embassy. I am considering applying as a single applicant while i support with a divorce proceeding/seperation letter cause i dont want to be caught in the web of misrepresentation and being banned for 5yrs because of his actions.Though my passport is in married name, i intend changing to maiden name.

You know what Wumi, you need to articulate all your concerns in one comment so that everyone can have a good idea. I recall reading of a medical issue. I also recall reading where you indicate divorce or separation. Articulate everything. There are more than capable hands and experienced people who may also be in similar issues like yourself.
Hi your marital issues seem fresh. I will try to understand your dilemma and offer a way forward

1.if you haven't done your IELTS and eca start now.

2.if you are unsure of what to do ie divorce or separation now fill your express entry form and apply as married. I see you have an MBA. If you are less than 32 you should get 428 with a score of 8777 on your IELTS.

3.when you get your ITA, you have 90 days to either get a divorce/separation or convince your husband to do medicals and police report.

4. You should seek cousel before starting this process considering your present situation. I recommend FIDA it's an umbrella for female lawyers. Ask your lawyer friends to give you a contact

I don't want to sound arrogant, but the reason I've been too pushy about this is the continuous insistence of the Principal Applicant having POF ONLY in their account and I have read conflicting and confusion argument over this and I want people to see the flexibility and not be restricted with limited choices - especially with the use of gift deeds
We have all read them too canada visa forum, British experts but I won't in good conscience tell someone to go through a route that I don't have facts for. I am a lawyer I work with facts, laws, guidelines. I can argue for and against a person that I can see. I can't see the VO, I don't intend to take that risk. When the person wants to file an appeal for instance based on what law would I tell he/she to base it on? Hearsay evidence is inadmissible.
Hopefully one of the people you advise would go through this your route and it suceeds, then we will advise accordingly. Arrogant or not, not my concern.All I know is I am going to canada

TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by optionese: 11:39am On Jun 05, 2017
On the POF, it's like everyone wants to talk but no one wants to listen.

1.If you are the Principal applicant, the POF must be uploaded by you from your account. This is the RULE as stated by CIC.

2.If the money is coming from your spouse via a transfer of funds, the logical thing to do is to write a LOE to explain the transfer and you can also add the spouse bank statement and a gift deed . Why do I say it's logical this is because you have to put your self in the position of the VO and try to play out the scenario. I don't know anyone personally who has gone to canada so I don't have first hand information.

3.if you also want to leave the money in the accompanying spouse account and submit the statement together with yours adding a LOE all well and good.
4.you see no 1is the approved method, any other method is at your peril. Let's try not to say these things as if it's the set rules. If I were to be in this position I would follow the rules as stated by CIC.
