Hi guys. I submitted my application for pr Dec last year. I've been having some delays with Naija passport office here in London about renewing passport of my dependants. Long and short is; my medicals, eligibility and biometrics have all been completed as seen on the tracker. Please how long on average does background checks take to complete.

Hello Everyone,
My partner and I got confirmed for Canada Express Entry.

We're landing in Ontario on the 25th. 10 days time.

I have been looking for a community that can help with the all the information I need before landing. Spoken to a few friends there already but I'm not sure I have all the information.

I need like a to do list before and during landing at the airport so I don't land and start wishing I should have done certain things before landing or before leaving the airport.

Please share anything helpful. I don't want to miss out any hack or tips.

Farawayman:
Congratulations.

You don't need so much really, pack your essentials, personal belongings, sort temporary accommodation if you can't get permanent one before landing. People talk about packing food, I disagree with that because there is everything in Canada, you just need to know the name it's called in English and where to get some in Asian stores and African stores. The immigration and welcome process should be easy. The airport people are usually very helpful.

You can use Service Canada desk in the airport once you land and finish with Immigration to get your SIN immediately. We did that. You can even open your bank account at the airport also, if you go to the city, you may require to book appointment.

Everything you need will be given to you, You can also use the ARRIVECAN APP. If you have specifics, you may ask.

All the best

Please do I really need to pay for training to pass the BCS exams? And can I pass the exams in October

Ontarioo:
Yes, you can pass October if you start with studies now. Learning resources offer you classroom experience while you can self-study. Reach out if in need, we can assist.

Thank you so much, we remain grateful for your insightful advise.

Please, what are the ''If she can study well while working, there are jobs she can do that do not require any course (except CPR certification). Not prestigious jobs, but here in Canada, there is dignity of labor, so no one truly cares what you do''. Please, with the exception of health care, which we are all aware of, what other temp job can she easily be eligible for with her medical degree, without going back to school? Can she be a teacher? or

The advise

Sorry, no one can tell you this for certain. You can follow the options on page 1 post 6 if your application has taken a while. In the meantime are your passports valid or already expired? Have you been sent an ADR for renewal? As far as I know they will not finalise with expired or less than 6 months to expiry passports.

Afolavid:
Apart from the mandatory documents for self-employment, such as Business Registration Certificates, Tax documents, etc did you add reference letters from your clients/business partners, ID cards, invoices/receipts of goods and services provided, bank statements that shows proof of business with your clients etc..? The latter are not listed as required documents on the IRCC website but they go a long way in solidifying your business and convincing the VO. Just in case you are wondering, I am also a self-employed applicant, also CEC candidate and I submitted everything I could lay my hands on to prove my business. BTW, most of the things listed in the previous replies are not the issues because your CEC eligibility is not based on your self-employed work experience i.e. your self-employed experience was not acquired in Canada.

Healthcare draw today.

475 CRS cutoff. 4,000 ITAs

Congrats to all.

careerwoman:
Thank you. Been dragging my leg for awhile to get back into the pool.
I’ve been here since 2017 as a university student.
Got ITA in this draw but residing in the UK now.
For UK residents; has anyone used Cash or stocks and shares ISA as POF? If yes, did you have any issues with the Visa processing?
Also, do I need Nigeria PCC? Haven’t been in Nigeria since 2022.

Using the Unilorin transcript portal to submit@wes.org, please how long did it take for wes to get your transcript?

Yes, he can use the teaching experience for his Canada immigration profile, even without an education degree — as long as the job was paid and full-time, and his duties match an eligible NOC.

He may not qualify under the “Secondary School Teacher” NOC (41220) since that usually requires a degree in education. But he might qualify under “Teacher Assistant” (NOC 43100) or another similar NOC, depending on what exactly he does at the school.

correct me if I am wrong but yes Law degree is a social science so with 43100 - Elementary and secondary school teacher assistants he is good

He should be in the pool and hope he gets called all the best

I will disagree with you on food packing Unless you have a job already before arriving in Canada or enough Canadian dollars to spend on african food in african stores,it is Better to pack as much food as a new arrival in canada especially if you are coming with your family,for example 100grams of crayfish is 9dollars and red shrimp 150 grams that is 14 dollars in canada ,one painter of crayfish is about 8000 to10,000 naira,coming with one painter of crayfish to canada from Nigeria would have saved the person 150 to 200 dollars..this is for crayfish alone,imagine all your food pack could save 1000 dollars,instead of patronising folks doing food cargo, using it as side hustle in canada ..
For those who understand the system or who are already in the system and how things are done in canada , 🇨🇦 bank accounts can be opened online with your mobile phones in canada without even stepping a foot In the bank, debit card will be sent to your address or go to your nearest bank branch and take your debit card no need to book appointment..

You need nigeria pcc and you cannot use cash or stock as pof .you need bank statememt as pof .

It might be useful to use the checklist on page 1 post 5

Although some UK people said UK banks don't give letters and they used their bank statements...I think its best to give IRCC what they asked for. Where this is not possible then write a LOE with supporting docs that explain why.

POF https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/documents/proof-funds.html#accept

PCC
