RIP to the dead.
All the OSP, BOSIET & HUET trainings & certifications didn't avail much.

Indeed...

Proverbs 21:31 The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.

OSP is just choppings for FG. It's the HUET/BOSIET that should come into action.
God help us, I flew that thing from 2015 to 2024

Finally, RFV.

My AoR was Feb 14 2024
BIL/MES was passed Mar 29 2024

PNP outland -

It's been God all the way people. Started this process since 2021 but got my my PNP Nomination in Dec 2023
Got Federal ITA Jan 2024.

Thanks for all the insightful info shared here. Kudos to everyone

Cboss:
Good day everyone,
Please what options do you have if your agent refuse to give you login details to your PR account after ITA?
Thanks.

Nothing, Why do you guys still insist on using agents? This whole IRCC waka was designed to be DIY. If you encounter issues, ask questions but y'all keeping empowering your agents and leaving your future plans in their hands. I don't understand it

GoalZero1:
Hi Everyone,
Trust we all had a rewarding day.

Appreciate some help on a dilemma we're having. My wife and I are about to enter the pool and need some guidance.

Wifey and I are 35 and 34 respectively. We both have a Master's degree with about a decade work experience each (wifey, HR professional in the bank and myself Engineer with an IOC)
We've both taken our IELTS with results as follows;
Wifey - L7, R7, W7, S7.5
Me - L8, R7.5, W7.5, S7.5
I have siblings in Canada while madam doesn't. My siblings are in Ontario.
I've been able to determine my NOC as 21321 – Industrial and manufacturing engineers, which is a TEER 1.

On the strength of the foregoing, we decided that I be the PA. I simulated my CRS and arrived at 466.

However, we're unsure of which of the EE stream to apply for - PNP, FSW General, Category based etc.
We thus solicit your wise counsel on the best pathway forward for us using the above details.

Thank you.

The good thing is that both of you can actually get in the pool. However, due to the competitiveness of EE draws at the moment, you will need to boost your CRS. Try learning and taking the French language test. That can increase your CRS by 50pts and also make you guys qualify for any of the French language category-based draws.

Do all you can to jack up that score and I wish you guys all the best.

Jokerman:
Lol...

But I thought age is just a number ?

Not in some family, it's not

Cole family na your mate

Singingbae:
Congratulations ma/sir. I have my IELTS by May and i've been preparing to enter the entry pool immediately, made my wes processes and police report. But at the same time, i want to also go the route of PNP, any advice on how to go about it? Any fees? And how to know the exact province based on my career, i'm a data scientist.
i'll appreciate. Congrats once again

For a start, get your WES and IELTS settled. You don't need police report until you are given an ITA.
Check out all the provinces and what they want. NB, Manitoba, Alberta, PEI etc. Check them all out

Harmony63:
Please how much did you pay for the French class in AllianceFrancaise ?

when i registered, it was 35k I think, for online weekend class 3pm to 6pm intensive.

SemperFid:
My crs is 374 as it stands. If I do another ielts and score maybe 8.5 on reading and listening, all things being equal, I will be at 430. Do you think this increase is worth it?

Hello SemperFid. I understand your situation and trust me, I was in that same thing about 5months ago. However, I never relented. Your profession still falls under healthcare/medical hence you are at an advantage. Being a more matured guy in tech, I watched my CRS decline from 405 to 330 in a space of 2yrs.

Options:
1. French Exam : Take the TEF/TCF french exam. I had to register with AllianceFrancais to learn French for 6months. Taking the exams will make you qualify for the category based draws and French is highly sought after in Canada.
2. PNP : Some provinces want health workers so bad. In my case, they also needed tech professionals in New Brunswick, so i researched and attended couple of Info Sessions/webinars to know more about the province. In no time, I received a Notification of Interest then submitted an EOI. Got the Nomination, submitted and within 6days, got ITA with the next draw and a boosted CRS of 913.

For those with CRS of 450 and below, please don't loose hope, PNP and French exam to the rescue

[quote author=Kcenyimbk post=129612128][/quote]but this thread is for Canadian Express entry program and not US visa. There is a separate thread for that, why not take your questions there?

aurorae1:
The first one is VO dependent... There's still background check and eligibility to be performed. I saw someone's without any ADR that got his 4 days after. Another up to 2 months.

Yes it starts from AOR.

Right! thanks for your response. As a matter of fact, I asked because I know a friend that got his couple of days after his medicals was updated.
For background check and eligibility, I thought it'd be quick since I have an existing TRV, on which same background check and eligibility had been carried out about 9months ago.

Greetings house.
Just wondering, how long after medicals and biometric update, does one get the RFV and PPR response from IRCC. Is there an estimated timeline?
Also, when does the estimated 6months for processing PR application start, is it from the moment one receives AOR?

makhu007:
Send them an email. They would book the apppoinment for you. The email is on their website.

Thank you. I eventually got through to them. It's sorted now.

Hello everyone,

Real quick, how do i book for medicals with IOM? the appointment system is not working for me. Does anyone have a direct phone number i can reach them on? I tried the 3 I saw online but none is going through.

79733139:
Congratulations! Was it the Ontario draw?

Naa, New Brunswick PNP

Jan 31st 2024. Finally got the much awaited ITA.
Keep pushing guys, never give up

Ogbeni, it's ok to make mistakes and learn from it. You did acknowledge that and should have left it at that.
However, you are contradicting yourself. First you said you do your researches then you claimed the price of $16m was given to you by the seller. Why didn't you do your due diligence online to know the actual cost? You know we Nigerians are very boastful people, the dealer would have told you that to look big and you took the bait.
Which one is calling out haters? Pay nobody any attention, do your craft, make mistakes, learn and make more money. Simple

damosade:
Please house what is the duration to go for biometric from the day of application submission?

You will get a notification when they are ready to take your Biometric.

I got the mail update below from VFS

Visa application, tracking ID No.20230814CALAXXXXXXXX – Passport has been couriered from the Canada Visa Application Centre on 2023/08/23 vide courier partner. To track the status of the shipment, please visit courier partner website.

Who is VFS courier partner, I paid for courier to PH after submission. Does this mean, the passport is back from Canadian Consular and currently with VFS for delive

wunmi590:
Good morning to you all,

So yesterday, I was in one of my family house at obalende to say hello, immediately I entered I just sighted a beautiful bag with food stuff..

I was told it was shared freely to all the resident of of the LCDA...

Honestly, all the elected politician in ikoyi obalende are special breeds, their love for development and extending their hands to people who needs is very high...

Lagos lead, others follow, I know they will still share school stuff for students resuming soon...

It's their usual practice to share branded school bags, mathematical sets, shoes 👞 and some other school stuff, to help the student well when resuming and helping the parent to save from there...

Shame on both the sharers and recipients of this insult. Shame on the people, politicians and all those involved in this vicious cycle of keeping Nigerians impoverished so they can share these and feel important.

Aameenaah:
please someone?

It all depends. I had less than a million when i submitted

Ilovemusicndart:
You mean I have to do a French exam(TEF) right ?

yes. TEF or TCF

Ilovemusicndart:
For someone who speaks French and English fluently is possible to migrate with a tourist visa into canada
Please I need an answer everyone

Get your test scores in and get into the Express entry pool. People with English and French tests are hot cake right now. CRS as low as 370 can get you a federal ITA real quick

DeeBaDan:
Trust me. Ive been creating jobs since eight years and oga. Your 10 Million doesn't intimidate me


You created this thread with a motive to brag. Hence I'm asking you to come out fully to say what you think you've achieved that's alot.

I don't know you but whoever you are, well said bro. Very nasty attitude some persons have and every now and then, they need a @DeeBaDan to tell it to them as it is.

Kaycherry:
In my case I did my Biometrics in Abuja last year and submitted my passport in the same Abuja . I had my yellow Biometrics slip with me but I was still asked to pay transmissions fee despite my yellow slip...the reason the guy gave me was that the Biometrics was done for a previous application. I just paid it to avoid their wahala...Thankfully I've collected my passport although I noticed that no one else has had this experience.

[Update]
Apparently, VFS guys are in it for the money but I guess. they called and told me to mske the 16,540 transmission payment or they'd return my application

Meshach171:
Bro congratulations.

Did you book an appointment for your passport submission?

You don't book appointment to use courier. I just went to DHL office and paid for it to be delivered to VFS Lagos. They have the checklist with them

Griffin22:
Congratulations 🎉

Thanks everyone. I submitted today at DHL office. Paid 11k5 for delivery to VFS Lagos. Then another 20k250 to VFS Global logistics for return delivery to me. Transmission fee was not paid since I still have a valid Biometric, which i did in 2017
