It's valid only for 3months, I suggest you do it when you have all other docs and are ready to upload and apply

The Nigerian police certificate is valid for 6 months not 3. Although it's written 3 months on the PC, CIC ignores this date and uses 6 months validity date for your current country of residence.

What CIC said is that it should not have been issued more than 6months prior to submitting e-APR. This does not necessarily imply that a 3months valid PC as stated by the issuing authority will authoritatively be taken by CIC to have a validity of 6months(even if they choose to use what you presented to them) cuz they also said at the discretion of the immigration officer, he/she may request you to send a new PC. You may read the below:

Police certificates
Purpose

To determine if the applicant or their family members has a criminal record or poses a security risk to Canada

Document requirements

For the applicant’s current country of residence, the PC must have been issued no more than six months before submission of the e-APR.
For countries in which the applicant no longer resides, the PC must have been issued later than the departure date of the last time the client resided in that country for more than six months.
The PCs are required upfront and mandatory for each country (except Canada) where an individual has lived for six or more months in a row. This instruction is for the purpose of the completeness check under section R10. However, it is always at an officer’s discretion to request a new or additional PC.
In some circumstances, CIC must ask for the PC on behalf of the applicant. In others (e.g., New Zealand), a client must complete a consent form to initiate a PC. Specific documents are required of the applicant for such requests and must be submitted as part of the complete application.
In exceptional circumstances, CIC may accept

proof of having requested a PC for such countries; or
a letter of explanation of best efforts (not a guarantee of acceptance).
Individuals who must submit this documentation

The principal applicant
Their spouse or common-law partner
Their dependent children 18 years of age or older, including non-accompanying

No you won't. You can go ahead and create your profile while you work towards getting the required amount for yourself or family size as the case may be. Its until after you get ITA that you will have to submit pof, which i believe for now you may not know when that will happen. One of the advantages of having your EE profile now is that an opportunity may show up for a provincial nomination that requires one to have an EE profile which if you don't have at that moment, you wont be able to take advantage of the opportunity
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by jugzy: 4:35pm On Dec 20, 2015
Thank you Jesusdway. Another question for you pls, if you dont mind. If i get ITA today being Dec 20, does that mean my POF should ve been in my account untouched since June 20? I read somewhere on d thread about d amount being in one's account for 6 months. Its for a family of 4.

No, that's incorrect. Its a six months bank statement with the current balance being the equivalent of the required amount, not that the balance must be there six months ago. You should get in addition, covering letter from the bank stating that the account is yours and when you opened it

You wife should go to the school (transcript office) and speak to the people there. The woman in charge when i collected my transcript in 2012 was very helpful.

:PS She should not go and claim right oh, she has to form humble.



Does working in Nigeria qualify for this following question under the crs tool

"How many years of skilled foreign work experience do you have? It must have been continuous, paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation."

They definitely disregard the 3 months date. As you rightly stated the new rule effective April states:

'For the applicant’s current country of residence, the PC must have been issued no more than six months before submission of the e-APR'.

Therefore regardless of how many months is written on your PC they'll definitely accept it as long as it was issued in 6 months or less discretion or not, it's the rule. My PC was 5 months old and I had no issue.

Same here. Was charged the Naira equivalent of $211.76 which translates to #57,200.

Guess that will be the standard price for now.

You wont get the pdf message in your box. Log into your account and go to the page where your score is displayed, scroll to the bottom where details of your account is displayed, click on it, it will download the pdf for you. You can then open it and use the link to jobbbank provided therein to register your jobbank account

Hello house! I need to make an inquiry about my wife-to-be's future. Assumption- Let's just say i travelled to Canada via the MPNP-Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program through my uncle's (over there) assistance and i was single then when moving but my fiancee was having my baby in her womb unknown to my uncle(i wouldn't want him to know anyway cuz he'll think im unserious and may stop helping). Though we only did our introduction ceremony before i left for canada and after 2 years there; i came back home(Nigeria) to do the wedding proper and intend to go with my (now-legal)wife and son to canada. How do i go about it concerning my wife and son pls? Hope its understood, anticipating your kind responses. Thanks!
