Hello Guys,

Please, I have an interesting dilemma, I submitted my application with a passport that has validity till August, however, I applied and captured for a new passport last month.

IRCC just sent me a letter that I should send them a passport with six months validity within 30 days. If things go the way Nigerian immigration said it would my passport would be available just before the 30 days period elapses since Nigerian immigration said 6 weeks. But it would not be wise for me to risk it.

Is there a way to fast track my passport so I can collect it as soon as possible?

PS: I did my passport capturing at Ikoyi Lagos.

Some of the NIS officials can expedite at a fee

The old Calabar, not the Calabar of today..
Calabar stinks now

Wow, so they finally messed that place up. The calabar I stayed in for a month in 2008 was so clean that you'd jail yourself by yourself for littering

My girlfriend of 8 months has broken up with me because she says I have no plans for her

I was surprised by the outburst cus she is still very young just 19 I don't know what she means by this statement because non of us are ready to marry now

I love this girl so much... I suspect that because her birthday is coming up next month and I haven't said anything about it so she feels I don't take her seriously


I have pleaded and talked to her but she is adamant about her decision that she is tired as I'm wasting her time


I haven't talked about her birthday yet cuz I'm having a hard time, things are pretty tight with me but she just can't understand


Please guys what should I do I'm truly in love with this girl that I'm having a hard time moving on

There is no point having a girlfriend when you can't stand on your own. For now, I'd advise you focus on improving yourself. When you are between 26 and 30yrs old you can revisit the whole relationship thingy. It's hard to let go especially when you think that person is all but trust me, you haven't seen things out there yet. You will change your mind

ultrazone:
Congratulations. If applicable, was your spouse's resume/employment history requested at any point before the LOI?

Not at all.

jasperonyx:
congratulations on your LO1, I discovered that you cannot submit an EOI till you attend their information session or if you have connections to NB. Is this the steps you followed?

Exactly, that was why I mentioned it in my earlier response and also pasted a link to the next recruitment event coming up. Attendance to NB info sessions and recruitment events are key.

ultrazone:
Congratulations. If applicable, was your spouse's resume/employment history requested at any point before the LOI?

No sir

Popdes:
Which DHL office did you drop yours?

Isolo/Ajao estate

Popdes:
Please house,
How long does it take US embassy Lagos to process and return your passport after drop off at DHL office?

Mine took about 10 business days. It. Ight be shorter or longer, it depends

leopardinatree:
Thank you so much for the detailed explanation.

I came across this during my research, I am wondering how does it relate to what you did?


To be eligible to apply to the New Brunswick Express Entry Stream, you must first meet one of the three connections below:

NB Employment Connection
NB Student Connection
NB Occupations in Demand Connection
Each connection has specific instructions on how to apply. Please follow the instructions carefully. If you do not, we may not receive your EOI.

Complete an Expression of Interest (EOI) to the province through the INB Portal.

Each month, Immigration NB invites candidates by selecting from the pool of eligible EOIs and issuing ITAs to those selected.

Invitations – April 2023


If you receive an ITA, you have 45 days to submit a complete application. If your application is approved, you will be nominated by the province. You will have 30 days to accept the nomination in your Federal Express Entry account.

Submitting an application and meeting the eligibility requirements for the New Brunswick Express Entry Stream does NOT guarantee a nomination.

Important: GNB reserves the right to change criteria and/or pause streams. Check the NB immigration website regularly to stay up to date with all changes.

My concern is that I don't have a tech noc. and we all know tech is in demand, they even have tech specific recruitment events. That being the case, do I still have a chance? In short, can I submit an EOI without the three mentioned : employment connection, student connection or occupation in demand?

Thanks again.

Yes you can submit an EOI. Infact the upcoming recruitment event is for all sectors and not just Tech. That's why I advised on attending that webinar. You should be concerned with the Occupation in Demand as the other two are not applicable to us outside Canada.

Sumam:
Pls which one is easier Wes or IQAS. I have student copy of my transcript. My ECA from IQAS will expire in four months and I was told they don’t renew , I have to do a fresh application.

Pls house help

Use WES

Savagethe21st:
the issue is schools don't give transcript to students. So how will I upload it to them

Pay for WES, you'd get a ref nos and a downloadable form. Fill and give same to your Alma mata, pay the fee and they will send it to WES directly. Go to www.wes.org

leopardinatree:
Very big congrats. Please, i have a few questions, if you don't mind;
Did you fill the 10 page registration?
Do you have French proficiency?
Did you get any interest from an NB employer prior to receiving their LOI?
Is there anything in particular that you did that may have aided/resulted in them selecting you?
How long did it take since your application (if you applied) until selection?
What is your NOC code?

Thanks.

Firstly, I submitted an EOI sometime in Feb 2023 using this link https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://inb.gnb.ca/&ved=2ahUKEwjoyJ--t_r-AhXTNcAKHYTYClkQFnoECA4QAQ&usg=AOvVaw12G1agHnrK9xhyWub6ZMkL

Please note that you should have your IELTS and ECA ready prior. My profession NOC is 21232 - Software Developer
Hope this answers your questions. I remember attending an ICT info session too sometime in March 2021 cos they asked for it as well.
At the moment, NB has a recruitment event coming up in June, register and endeavour to attend as attendance is a plus. All the best everyone


Here is the link for the recruitment event for various sectors

https://gnb1.hiringplatform.ca/117629-2023-nb-virtual-recruitment/460193-pre-registration-form/en

Lest I forget, I don't have a French result.

drimzsmoke:
Where OOU

Check GWR website for OOU, 🤣

guyct:
I have gotten my WES done and IELTS is gotten now.
I considered my wife doing ECA, WES and i doing french too and discovered CRS won't be above 450 due to Age, therefore I think PNP is best for us. CRS now is 340. Am looking at SAS, Manitoba or Alberta PNP.
From my finding, licensing is needed for a Computer Engineer to work in these places.
Is there anyone with Engineering decree who works with engineering NOC. Are exams needed for Engineering licencing in canada. I could learn somethings from you.
I intend getting EE account today.
(Attached is my IELTS result, this was my first attempt)

There are other provinces you can submit EOI for besides these 3 you mentioned. For instance, NB has a recruitment session coming up in June, go register. I just got their PNP LOI on my EE profile about 5days ago.

Hello,

Did anyone else receive LOI from NB on friday? I saw it in my IRCC EE profile that NB was interested in my profile. Is there a group out there one can join? I have searched but haven't turned up with anything useful.

Flo123:
To schedule for an interview

Oh wow, have you rescheduled now? I saw Abuja but August 2024. That's crazy. How can one get an earlier date for an interview?

Does anyone know the the current available date for interview scheduling in Lagos or Abuja?

uncleck:
Whoever made that law is inexperienced

Tell your wife that you have or are developing an erotic feeling for her sister or any other woman let's see if that peace you enjoy won't be cut short.

uncleck:
If I'm in your shoes, this is what I will do:

I'll call my wife into my room the very day I come back from travel. After hot totori with her, I'll tell her as follows: Your sister has been a very good family member and has helped us in more ways than one. But at this juncture I want to tell you that I'm developing erotic feelings for her. I don't want anything that will break the peace we enjoy in this family. Please tell her to get an apartment ASAP. She can always come over and stay with you whenever I travel. If you don't feel comfortable telling her or doesn't know how to tell her, call her in right now let me tell her myself.

If she chooses the later option and brings her in, I'll say to her: Baby girl, I so much appreciate your presence in this family, but problem is brewing. I'm having erotic feelings for you, I don't want it to materialize. Please get an apartment ASAP. You can always come back and keep your sister company when I travel. I'll support you wherever necessary. I know you're of age so you perfectly understand me. And please let this be our little secret.

Bro, first law with women. NEVER ever mention to your wife or sister-in-law that you are developing any kind of feeling. Be guided

Ekeadatrust:
Is approved the same thing as issued? I submitted mine since 17th of march and the status still says "APPLICATION RECEIVED"

I don't know what's going on too. My spouse and I submitted on the 20th of Feb 2023, I got back my passport on the 8th of March while my wife's just recently changed to "Recieved" on the 23rd of March 2023 and everyday, the case last updated status date changes with no change in visa status. what could be the problem? Is it cos we had both our kids in the US in 2015 and 2018?

YoungMetrosG:
Please for anyone who’s done IW/Dropbox recently…what’s the quickest you’ve gotten your passport back? How long did it take from submission to collection? I hear it’s a standard 10 days but wondering if it’s been shorter for anyone

I don't think 10days is standard. I dropped mine on the 20th of Feb and got it on the 13th of March.

My wife and I dropped passports for IW. Mine is issued and already picked up while hers still shows passport is with consular. Is it always like this for those that did Dropbox

DenreleDave:


I doubt this man was truly attack bcoz Very easy to stage an attack to gain public sympathy...

Just gather people, pay them and hand Over their scripts to them.. Then rush online and claim you were attacked by opposition parties...


Peter obi did the same so many times and still lost woefully with 3rd class 3rd position..

Business men have no loyalty to anyone. As long as you are in power, all they care is how their businesses will benefit. Watch how Elumelu will do a 180 degrees turn around if the supreme court decides to overturn the election and give it to Obi or Otiku. Wait and see

borryworld:
Please, can anyone held respond to this.

I have and trust me, they will be there before 8:30am

unclepauly:
Hi everyone, I am looking into applying for Dropbox and was hoping someone could share a little information on the process. I have a visa interview date but it seems to have changed since March.

What is the process of applying for Dropbox for someone who has a visa interview date? And yes, I had a US visa. Thanks guys.

If you qualify for IW, cancel your current appointment then response to the questions from scratch.

dfrost:
But you should expect that.

1. Everyone is trying as you are trying.

2. It is established that Nigerians don't factor in upscaling when infrastructures are built.

Cc: overlord77

They don't factor in upscaling not because it wasn't though of but because they use every opportunity to do things with ulterior motives. How credible are all the personnels with access to the backend of the portal or even the DB.
