Hello guys.

I've sent my passport to Lagos VFS since 26th of last month and I got a tracking ID but whenever I try to track the application, I get a response of record not found.

Who else is experiencing this please ?

Mine took exactly 6 weeks

Hi all,
To be eligible for CEC can one use 1 year experience from 3 different jobs with 3 different NOC (like NOC1111 worked for 3 months..NOC 2222 worked for 5 months etc)? Or must all be in 1 NOC?

2-If one can use from different NOC ,for the PR application can the person use the NOC with more years of experience (like 5 years that was worked outside Canada) as the primary NOC or must it be the NOC for a job in Canada.

I submitted my adr in February. Till now it’s been crickets. No ghost update, nothing. I only got an acknowledgment mail hours after submitting. I’m honestly fed up of all this and some days I wish I never knew or started this journey.
After all the stress and exams I wrote to get to this point, I’m finally here and still nothing. It’s really tiring and unfair. Mtshewww

The wait is truly frustrating. You can try to call and several mails to them. You can join groups too

Where did you get tracking ID from? Is it the one from DHL or from VFS? This will help in further answering your question

Hello guys

I just got my WES done and IELTS result. I'm planning to open my Express Entry profile today. However, I need guidance and advice so I don't encounter any problems. There are a coupleof things I'm worried about.

First, is about work experience. I'm a blogger. I have been blogging for almost six years, and I have some three successful blogs, which I normally add to my CV. I have done some freelance digital marketing gigs for companies and I also add them to my CV. The only secular job I have is as a content writer for a company in Asia (I don't know if to call it part time or..) I'm worried about how I will use this as work experience, or if I'm required to submit work documents, then how?

Secondly, is my points, I think I have 400+ points now. But I need a job offer to better my chances. I can work as a digital marketer or as a writer. But they re in two different NOCs, which one should I choose for faster employment chances. I have been applying on Job Bank, but no one has ever replied.

Lastly, I heard FSW is back, what does it mean? And can it make the proces faster because I need to leave as soon as possible. It's crucial.

I got PPR almost 2 weeks ago!
Thanks to the wealth of knowledge here.
A family friend first told me about the express entry program in late 2019, but I didn't do anything.

In 2020, I decided to begin. I thoroughly read the threads from part 7 or so like a Bible through out the lock down, including landing and PPR gists. I read all, plus the living in Canada threads.

Congratulations

didn't you have a life before applying? Go back to your life and wait. They will get back to you. They do to everyone. If not, request gcms note and stop whining.

reality check . Express entry is not a quick process it can take between 6months to 2 years. If you need to leave the country asap go apply for uk study visa. Most employers will not get back to you because they don’t wanna incur costs of hiring immigration lawyers to process visa and no guarantees it wont take years. There are many available PRs and students in Canada so they will go for those ones who can resume the next day, not someone thousand of miles away who it may take a year to land in Canada. Unless you are in a critical and scarce occupations like medical field, tech, logistics and supply chain. It’s almost impossible to get a job offer with pr or study permit.

Hello everyone,

Please I have 3years experience as a customer service representative, the NOC for this is very low, any idea of similar job titles I could use to increase my NOC?

Moncton

Kompressor:


Toronto, you?

Would you advice anyone with a CRS score of 480 to go with PNP nomination or hang around for the FSW that should resume by July 2022?

Hello goddess, did you pay Kenya with Barter pls??

Good day everyone, I have a question
We went for medicals on April 27(didn't submit with application from the start), after asking alot of people for mails to send to that will make IRCC receive it fast, we sent the e medical sheet to different IRCC mails and we used the normal webform, on May 3 we caught a GU on our profile(in the morning), this same day around 10pm at night we caught another GU and on our profile it changed from YOU DO NOT NEED A MEDICAL EXAM........ to WE ARE REVIEWING YOUR MEDICAL RESULT........
Does this mean IRCC has seen the e medical sheet we sent to them
Thanks in anticipation

Yes I know it's going to take time. I just thought the FSW program will speed things up.

Just answer my questions on what I should include as my work experience. The only stable secular job I have is the writing gig with the Asian company (since 2019) and it's remote. Should I say part-time or?

Apart from that, it's just my blogs. I don't earn enough to use self-employed.

Thanks. I’m in a couple groups, I’ve also requested for my notes since March but it hasn’t come yet.

You can answer your question yourself chief.

What exactly do you do to earn money? Once you've determined that, do you spend up to 37.5 hours doing it weekly? If YES, it's full-time. If NO, likely part-time.

Also, do you have an offer letter regarding your employment with the Asian coy? If YES, what does it state? (full-time or part-time). Being remote shouldn't matter. Can you get a reference letter from them as proof?

Read page 1 for info on self-employment.
