Hi, did you pay for each document, I mean SVR for Transcript, SVR for degree. Or I can merge as a document and submit
, i.e separately.f

Oagoro:
Hi again!

Thank you so much for your support.

My SVR has returned PASSED, does it mean that my school has confirmed the certificate? Also, what do I need to do next? Request for the ECA report?

Thank you so much.

Please can you link me up with your tutor. You can message me

Hi everyone.

My EE portal score does not reflect the mark from the work experience section.

Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

Habibiie:
Can you share details of the tutor?
Do they have confirmable records i.e pple they've taught who passed the exams

Is it advisable for someone at age 40 to pursue a trade or enroll in an accelerated two-year nursing program?
This person has already applied for permanent residence through the Non-Express Entry stream. They have a background in IT, specifically in Network Security, and have also studied AI and Data Analytics. However, they are currently not working in their IT field due to their PR situation.
They are now considering a long-term career change into a field that will remain stable and sustainable for the next 20 to 25 years. One concern is the two-year waiting period for PR, which makes returning to IT less appealing at the moment.
They would appreciate any advice on which path—trades or nursing—might be the better option in terms of job security, career longevity, and overall practicality at this stage of life.

Thank you.

Good day everyone,

I’m preparing to begin my Canada Express Entry process in 2026 and I’m just getting started. I would really appreciate guidance from anyone who has recent experience with the process.

I’m looking for accurate and up-to-date information, especially regarding:

• The Express Entry process

• Required documents

• Current requirements and timelines

• WES evaluation process

If you’ve gone through this successfully or have reliable knowledge, please kindly share your advice or point me in the right direction.

Thank you very much for your support.

Refer to page 1 of this thread, everything there is still 90% accurate

Is it advisable to open a new dorm acct to show pof ? Then attach gift deed

Is it advisable to open a new dorm acct to show pof ? Then attach gift deed

If it’s gift deed, you should be fine. I know someone that used it without issues.
Cheers

Is it advisable to open a new dorm acct to show pof ? Then attach gift deed

A gift deed deposited into a newly opened account can raise suspicion of arranged funds or a loan. Be prepared to clearly explain the source of the money, and you may be asked to provide the donor’s bank statements as happened in the case below.

You can register with IDP. Look it up

Please how much is IELTS currently

I used a gift deed in my application process, but in my case I used my regular Nigerian bank account which I normally use to process large transactions. This allowed me to print a 6 Months statement of the account which showed past transactions and made the total credit count on the statement of account to be large. It is usually advisable to use an old account when doing a gift deed. Also make sure the money is sent to the account by a direct blood relative and attach a document to show your relationship with this person (in my case I used our birth certificates, which had the names of our parents on them)

My Pdf for Proof of funds had the following documents;

1.Letter of Explanation for gift deed
2.Notorized gift deed from a High Court
3.Transaction Receipt of the money (from the sender)
4.Birth certificates showing relationship
5.Reference Letter/letter of non-indebtedness from the bank
6 Statement of account
7. Printed screenshot of the POF when converted from Naira to Canadian dollar on OANDA website

If you can learn French better do. I go kickstart this French learning this coming March. That's the surest way right now

This ADR is a rarity, I know folks that used gift deed+ new dorm account combo without issue.
The ADR u shared was not precise, it said “provide bank account “ as against their usual request for bank statements covering a specific period. My guess is the PA didn’t show funds inflow (Transfer receipt) from the Donor, hence the request.
P.S:
The person I know added an LoE explaining that the new dollar account was opened to mitigate potential lost of monetary value due to unstable forex.

Please can someone recommend to me schools with less expensive tuition in Canada for masters.

Hi everyone! I wanted to ask. Has anyone here ever non deliberately used a wrong date for their work history on their study permit and want to claim this for PR? For example, you put November 2021 - October 2022 in the application and still mentioned it was NYSC, while you worked from November 2021 - November 2022(NYSC). And you want to use this for future PR application.

I would appreciate a little insight on this :3 … Merci tout le monde !

Good news 👏

This family person got his PR approved today without any ADR.

He corrected the errors post ITA and included his NYSC work experience to make-up the points

Thank you all for the contribution and good work here.

I am so happy for him.

From one year study in Canada to One year PGWP, now a PR

It can only be God.

Betterlife2018:
Please guru on this platform. I need input on this situation.

A close family person is here in Canada. He has graduated and currently on pgwp which is expiring in less than two weeks

He got ITA ( health draw ) with a crs score of 472.
He has 1 year canadain experience in health and claimed 2 years foreign experience.

After he got ITA, he discovered that he made a mistake in his Canadian credentials point when he was creating profile.

He recalculated his score after he made the correction of the mistake and then the score reduced below 470 cut off. So technically he may need to decline the ITA

The two years foreign experience is without his NYSC experience. He is thinking he can update his profile after ITA to include NYSC and then claim 3 years foreign experience.

With 1 year Canadian experience and 3 years foreign experience and correct Canada credential his score will be 481.

please help a poor boy. I am not sure of correct answer to him

Can he update his work experience after ITA. His PPA is willing to issue him necessary document to support the nysc experience.

Please he needs help. 🙏

Hi everyone,

I am already in the pool with CRS of 468. I maxed my ielts and I'm currently studying French with the hopes of writing the exam before the end of the year.

I finished NYSC since last year July and I've been job hunting since then.

The point now is that I've been researching other means to get ITA and I saw that ircc is prioritising French, Healtcare, Education, PNP and CEC for now.

I'm working towards French but I dont want to put all my eggs in one basket. My uncle also has a school so I'm thinking of working there from now till the end of the year.

I would like to know if I would be eligible for the education draw even if I dont have a degree in education or certificate in it? I studied computer science and I did the BCS exam last year.

Hi, how did you prepare for your celpip and if you don't mind me asking what was your score? I have a date for next month but I'm unable to fine any practice test online unless it's paid

Ghaliz:
Hello house, I'm new here! I got the result of my TCF Canada this week. NCLC 8. I'm good to go!

I started learning French with Duolingo 2 years ago but I finally joined Alliance Francaise in OCT 2024 , I spent a little over a year getting from A1.1 - B2.4 I had to quit my job to focus on it.

I have my CELPIP, TCF. I'm still feeling euphoric, getting a reference that ties into an NOC is getting a little tricky. I have written to the HR at my former firm.

Thank you house I just wanted to introduce myself. I look forward to sharing my journey and learning how to navigate mine through contributions here. Merci à tous.

You already have everything in place, what you need is to position yourself properly for the Education draw.

Based on previous post from others on this thread
NOC 43100 (Teaching Assistant) qualifies for Education draw and does not require a teaching certificate. One of the employment requirements is the completion of a secondary school certificate which is equivalent to WAEC, this is a loophole that can be utilised if one gets a PFL letter.

Start by requesting your uncle give you a job in his school with a signed Appointment/offer letter.

This Appointment must come with a monthly pay from the school's bank account so that you can use the bank payment as proof of work experience when you get ITA. All you need is 12 month's work experience and you can add it to your profile. While you continue with your french exam preparations.
