Thanks bro

No.It is unnecessary. You do not need to notarise ur LOE. You only need to notarise documents that you want to prove their authenticity.

Yes it is the Aor

Thanks!

Hello Guys,

OK, my AOR was Feb 15th and I got Medical pass March 24th.
Apparently the volume of applications have increased and as a result things seems to have slowed down a little bit.

There are even many Feb applicant that are yet to get any update at all.

I know some march applicants already got medical passed but very few, so if you haven't don't bother, it will come in due time.

I think we just have to wait patiently... (....yeah! I know. The waiting is nearly unbearable! But what choice do we have ?)

happymumtobe:


Submitted March 30th too and was wondering why medical status hasn't changed to passed. I guess the process is now slow as it seems alot that submitted have not gotten update too..
Please let us know once any one gets any update.
Thanks guys.

Ielts L8.5 R7.0 W7.5 S7.0

Crs= 405

Which way to proceed pls?

I understand that NYSC Service year causes some sorta confusion and could complicate your application. Where is it best explained... Work history or personal History or is it best not spoken about at all?

What would you advice?


I would appreciate swift response house.

Rgds.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate

Hi -

Once all you forms are completed, a personalised checklist is generated. As mentioned earlier, personalized checklist is dynamic and some of the entries in the list change based on the information that you have provided in the previous sections of e-APR e.g work experience letters. When you have gathered all documents that were requested in your Personalized Checklist, you should upload them using the "upload file" tab in your Document checklist page. Note that document upload section comes towards the end of the e-APR submission process and allows for only 1 file to be uploaded for each section. So if you have multiple documents that pertain to the same section, then you should scan and merge your documents into 1 file.

Once you have uploaded all requested documents, the system will take you to pages related to Declaration, Disclosure and Electronic signature. "Agree" to the Declaration, Disclosure and Electronic signature pages and you will see a table with summary of fees that you need to pay for your e-APR. You have two hours to complete the payment. You can pay your fees using Visa, American Express or Mastercard credit card.

All the best!

NYSC is employment and falls under personal history, if and only if you aren't claiming points for it. If you are claiming points (& you are sure you can get reference letter from your employer) then it should be under your work history.

All the best!

Hi -

Can you kindly explain what "medical pass" is? Do you get an email via your CIC account that you've passed your medicals, or is this just an upload onto your CIC account?

Can you pay using for instance GTbank Dollar MasterCard?

What happens if you do not pay within two hours?

Like any normal payment portal, it'll probably return you to your application page (I'm not sure for certain). To avoid any hassle, maybe you should only proceed to the payment portal when you are ready to make payment.

I don't know anything about the GT MasterCard. Sorry can't answer that.

Congrats to everyone on ITA & IELTS

Hello house.
Congrats to everyone with ITAs and everyone with aced IELTS scores.
pls elders in da house can anyone help explain why all d data i have filled in d post ITA form have all disappeared in d personal activities section?

I had filled and gone past this section and while uploading passport documents, i realized that i didnt mention a transit through germany....i decided to update d form with this info.....but upon using d update key, the personal activity section opened with no info therein.
I am now stuck. cant move on to d next page. I have logged out and in again....i have refreshed d page a lot....yet no data. Has anyone ever had this problem? how was it resolved?
shld i go ahead and refill the form is it pertinent to mention the transit through Germany?(approx 6hrs stay within d airport sef)

can anyone help my predicament please??

@Spatz81, I carefully read through your post. That was a very important update to the rules that you brought to the fore. It means that if an applicant receives an ITA on say April 1st and has his birthday on May 1st and submits his eAPR on May 1st or after, whenever the immigration officer begins to review his application for eligibility checks (i.e. A11.2), he stands the chance of being denied permanent residence based on not being eligible if by virtue of losing points for age, his CRS drops below the required cut off for the draw in which he was invited.
However, if he submits after his birthday and yet even with the points lost for age, his CRS still meets or surpasses the cut off for the draw, his application would be fine. Also, if he goes ahead to submit his eAPR before his birthday on May 1st, his app would be fine.
Bottom line - once you receive an ITA, endeavour to submit your eAPR before your next birthday if you know that your CRS less 5 points would make you fall below the cut off for your draw.

@bimpsy99, pls take note that "your application would not be refused" is not the same as having a successful outcome.

@esosa4real, I got my passport back siiiiiincceee in February. It only took 5 days. Don't worry about your medicals, sometimes it gets updated quickly, other times it takes a while.

@40manlappy,congrats. This has been a long time coming. I wish you a smooth sail from here on.

@markab, I am female oh. I often wonder why "thanks bro" is the default response when someone gives a reply. Is it only men that provide answers? #justsaying

@lochinny, medical doctors can only evaluate their degrees through MCC and pharmacists can only evaluate theirs through PEBC, any other evaluation done by any other evaluating agency would be declared null and void by IRCC. If your husband is the PA and his estimated crs scores WITHOUT evaluating your own degree is 459, then y'all may want to write ielts and get his own degree evaluated and get into the pool asap to take advantage of the wind of low cut off draws.

@ugoiyke79e, that eAPR form can be dicey. You may have to fill all the info again seeing as it wiped off.

Greetings to all. Congrats to all new ITA recipients. And to the hopefuls, hang in there. It'll happen soon.

P.S.
If anyone new here sent me PMs, pls kindly endeavor to ask your questions here as I would be unable to respond to the messages via email.

Both actually.

You get an email that your CIC account have been updated and when you log in to CIC you will see your medical status change to "you pass the medical exam" could be a different wording but....you get the point.

Yea I do...thanks for the response.

Bimpsy99:
Some provinces like Ontario and Novascotia require you to be in the EE pool with a profile number assigned before you can apply for the EE stream, some others are fine with you applying directly to them before entering the pool.

What is your current score per the CRS tool and hope you have checked the eligibility for the provincial nomination in the province you are interested in?

This link will be of great help to help you know about the Prono, also people in this thread would announce if there is any new information.
==> http://www.canadaexpressentry.org/provincial-nominee-program/

All the best.

PS: Everyone is busy with one thing or the other and we should appreciate the sacrifice of getting a response. most times the neglect is not deliberate, one may not have the answers, or even have it but hoping you will come back to address it when you are chanced. I have asked questions on this thread that were not answered but I only quoted it and asked again and then someone answered me. Nothing personal

Also, some questions are simply repetition of what was answered just two pages away (Not referring to this one though). This is totally discouraging. We must always be considerate of others and their time. The thread is meant for reference and all opinions are well documented so the next person can read and run with it.

May God make all our dreams come through

Thank you so much. I appreciate your answer. My IELTS result was so low (score 6) and was told to retake IELTS or get a provincial nomination

optionese:
none at this moment . at least that i am aware of. why were you told to get s provincial nomination? whats your crs score?

Thanks sir. My IELTS result was really poor (got a score 6) and when I started the online application, I was told to get a higher IELTS score or get a provincial nomination. Now I'm interested in migrated to any province in Canada. I'm an engineer, I can always survive anywhere

@vcole Thank you. Happy to have you around

Please give retake a shot and deliberately prepare towards it. God will give you victory.

Good morning great people!! Please I have a problem. While filling IQAS application, I mistakenly put November 21st 2005 as the date my hubby finished school instead of 30th September 2005 that was written on the statement of result. I don't know how to correct it because IQAS can not be edited and I feel it might affect the evaluation. Please what should I do?

Hello House, kindly advice;
Received my IELTS result today for me and my spouse as follows;
Myself: L7.5, R8.5, W7.5, S6.5 overall 7.5
Spouse: L5.5, R6.0, W7.0, S6.5 overall 6.5
WES: Two or more certificates, diplomas or degree.
Am the principal applicant aged 40yrs with over 15years proven engineering maintenance experience.
Please, the experts in the house what do you advise, some people advise I enter into the pool and get provincial nomination e.t.c, will rewriting the test offer much? Considering my age, what are the demerits of provincial nomination as I can see some people don't want to got through nomination. Any other options available to get the ITA?
Every good advise and enlightenment is appreciated.

Hello House. I have been MIA. The wait is real and good to take a break from it all sometimes (I think). Congratulations to everyone that got ITA and Aced their IELTS. I trust God to give me a new song as I write my 3rd and final IELTS exams. So I wanted to ask, i have my fathers elder brothers daughter in canada, can she pass for my sister based on the new inclusion. we have the same surname but she shortened hers when she got to Canada and she is canadian. Please advise/ assist. Also, does anyone know where I can learn french in lagos mainland since it takes a while, i want to try other avenues to gather point. Thank you.

Hi. God will give you a testimony soon. Your description fits that of a cousin and not a sister, your sister is blood related either same parents or you share same dad or mun (step) also bear in mind that she has made a declaration of all her family, sisters and all while applying for PR. Its difficult to claim sibling if your name is not there.

You have to be careful of misrepresentation cos they keep records

All the best

From the ECA reports i have seen so far, they only write the year of completion.

Not sure if thus will affect your evaluation as long as they get the transcript from school. Anyone with IQAS experience can throw more light.

Hi, retaking the test may not add much value considering your age. You may consider getting a job offer in any of the provinces and also apply for a provincial nomination. It only takes more time than direct ITA but in the end you will get the PR.

Write a letter explaining the mistake and your husband should sign ,scan it and send it as a fax using hello faxm google it . Its free, also if you haven't sent your documents from your end , there is a place at the bottom of the form that you can make corrections and changes use it. When you send the fax wait for like 3 working days and call them. Be persistent when you call don't let them give you a generic answer. All the best

Nobody seems to be giving me good answer here!!!

it also depends on your total score after adding in skills, qualifications,age,marital status etc . Its your overall score that matters . You can use the ranking system to check your score

"Thanks sis"

engineering is one of then in demand jobs in canada. So there is hope. You should check previous pages on people who got provincial nomination. On the search page type super hi. He got a provincial nomination. He's no longer active but if you read his post you will get insight. Are you less than 30 though? Master's? If you retake ielts and score well you can get EE

Just when we were gradually accepting the reality of waiting for the next draw, God showed us His favour. For a journey that started with our first IELTS in December 2014, we give Him all the glory.

Thanks to this wonderful e-family for the encouragement, kind words and support. May God grant all your wholesome hearts' desires in Jesus' name, Amen!

Wow, Congrats to and wifey. U have been Great here as have been following up your supports and encouragements. I Pray to jump into the pool soonest after my exam next month...

@Lochinny: Your ECA will only show year of completion as Bimpsy99 rightly stated. I don't think you have to worry too much.

If it will give you peace of mind, you may follow optionese suggestion but it is the year that matters.

@joyuzo Thank you, wish you the best in the test
