Chin up sis. All dis initial wahala wey dey happun....na so we fit enjoy the coming ITA and PPR wella! So many stories here of perseverance and endurance ending in joy!

MrKong:
I just got an invitation to apply from EE category based draw. After 3 years in the pool, 2 IELTS and expired passport. I’ve lost so much hope that I’ve even forgotten how the process works. I have to go read up on them again now.

Now the journey begins!

Revman:
I have been on this journey since 2019.

Wrote my first IELTS and got LRSW 9987, CRS was 463 then COVID hit and everything went downhill from there. Watching time run out on my IELTS was one of the most painful things, I was so pained that I just ignored Canada.

Last month a friend encouraged me to write IELTS and enter the pool again. I did on the 24th and got LRSW 9888. I was so afraid but thank God I passed. CRS is now 445 due to age. The pain no be here.

Meanwhile I did a tech course in 2022 and pivoted because law is not a cross-border profession. I also dabbled into farming during COVID because man must chop.

As it stands now na only God fit run this Canada PR for me and I am writing this post just to put it out there that I will not write this traumatic IELTS again and my ECA will not expire in my hand without me and my family getting our PR.

Currently also learning french. I have suffered on top this matter.

Tired of feeling down about this so I just had to let it out. Pardon my rant abeg.

Oluwa please show up for your girl. Any which way na way.

Revman:
Please can someone clarify me on this?

While in the pool, I applied for study and was admitted to a school in BC. Been gearing up to apply for my student visa before ITA came.

I did upfront medicals for my student visa earlier this month. My question now is will i need to do another medicals for my PR or will the one I did for student visa suffice?

Please help a sister.

GraciousWords:


Short answer - the old medicals should suffice.

Congrats!

Hello House, my profile was SPOUSE UNNACCOMPANIED due to our pursuit of points, but I got ITA yesterday for the Agric food program, and the CRS was at 354 which means I can add my wife without being ineligible due to points..I hope there is a way I can include her post-ITA (pre-AOR)..

Hi all
I need guidance on Ontario pnp.
I don’t have the fund at all. I heard gift deed work, how is the process like?
And for normal bank statements, they asked for 90days, they gave me 45 days to apply. Are they requiring to have those funds 90days before which I don’t?

Favourphilic:

If you are on general group on telegram asked to be added to the OINP group. If you can get a gift deed. You can submit even a day after getting the gift deed.

IF your personal CRS after changing to spouse accompanying is still above the draw CRS of 354, then you can change to spouse accompanying pre AOR, nothing do you.

However, if your personal CRS drops below the draw CRS of 354 when you change to spouse accompanying, then obviously don't.

AFAIK if you were already married (but spouse accompanying) pre ITA, then whether you add spouse post ITA, pre AOR or post AOR, the change will affect your CRS.

Some people say they added accompanying spouse post PPR - search NL for them.

I guess you are a lawyer, let's be positive,we will get there, I used the Noc for legal assistant, it's not regulated, not like using Noc for a solicitor.
This is if you wish to explore pnp.
I applied for Saskatchewan PNP. Fortunately,legal assistant is among the needed Noc.

It doesn’t really matter whether you upload any document ( either statement or certificate) I.e your own upload is not that important… just have your school send your transcript and statement/certificate directly to WES.. and that’s what WES will work with.. I didn’t upload any document and my evaluation was done ..

Hello all,

Does anyone have some direction on how to go through a Country that processes it faster. Thank you

It was a really daunting journey, had to take my mind of it at a point. Came back to it early this year. Started disposing of items no longer needed at home with hopes that the approval will happen before the end of the first half of the year. This forum was also comforting, with words of encouragement that was in constant supply.
Praying we all will get our good news soon. Thank you
