Re: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program-Connect Here Part 3 by Nobody: 8:22am On Dec 06, 2017
Hello Team, just before ITA testimonies start rolling in.
Let me discuss something personal, with a projected score of atleast 467 (MSC, 31YRS, 3 YEARS EXP, SINGLE). I am assuming I'd almost get ITA as soon as I enter the pool.

I currently have about half the POF in fixed deposit, surprisingly talking to close family relatives has not yielded much effort(to be honest I'd have sworn getting my parents to fix 2 million in my account for a few months wouldn't be an issue but obviously I was wrong) .

Now I have an uncompleted building in a very central place in one of the popular south western states and I am toying with the idea of disposing it.
The property could easily be valued at about 8 million if you factor in cost of land and a very high fence, solid gate and a 2 two bedroom flat presently at lintel level.

I am currently working and might not be able to save up to the 2 million outstanding until next year June. I am also considering the 6 months POF in account requirement.

So to the experienced people in the house with a tight budget, how can I navigate this POF issue.
Should I liquidate the property ?

Should I take a loan ? I really need the fund to be domiciled in my account for sometime so as early as possible the better.


Lastly, please do not quote this post cos I will edit it later. Just mention my name as I need advise now.
Another remote option is to ask from my fiance which I really am not comfortable with ?
Any ideas family ? What would you all do in my situation.

Silent reader here. I am glad to announce we got our Passport Request (PPR) today!!! Hopefully this

The entire process from AOR to PPR took 221days. The wait was very frustrating for us as it took much longer than the average processing time, it got even worse when we read how London VO keep files in their queue for much longer than expected. We are however grateful to the Almighty for seeing us through to the finish line before the end of the year.

Wishing those still waiting the very best in this journey. Cheers

Congratulations Knightfemi. Thanks for sharing your timeline and patience. May the maple land favour you.

Amen o. We need multiple draws for the CRS score to drop significantly to circa May scores.

Congratulations Prime Minister JustinTrudeau on your multiple scale through. May ITA fall on you.

Finally taking my own space in this part 3. I will testify of my story and patience in this part 3. Amen

If you are legally married and your spouse is a Canadian PR , you are not eligible to apply for FSW or Provincial nominee Program. That's the law. You can come to Canada as a PR via Family sponsorship.

I don't know if you've been answered, but let me try... Glad you have two payslips already and a letter of employment. Maybe you should ask your employer to write you a letter stating that you were paid cash subsequently. You should deduce whether the payslips were issued before cash payments were made so that your employer will word your letter correctly.
gogedda:
Good Morning house, trust we doing great. I have a question. For those of us that worked in a very small business (One-man company) and we're paid in cash and not in bank account. What can we submit as proof of employment. From the look of things, it seem my file is London because I got that mail "how to find a job in Canada". I have my employment letter and my last 3 months payslip back in 2014. Pls advice. Thanks

I'm not sure if losing your job will prohibit you from becoming the PA. The minimum requirement is a one year experience in the last ten years and the job must be in either of the NOC's 0, A or B. Next is your credential(s), and age, then proof of fund. In any case you are found deficient in the POF, then you can ask your spouse to augment. You can do all the research, evaluate your credentials, and sit for IELTS and encourage her to do the same assuming you do not meet the requisite score.

Good day, senior in the house pls I need someone to guide me on how to go about this thing,I lost my job some months ago and since then things has not been easy.I asked my wife to be the PA but she is not showing interest since she is still working.

Hello,

Can you provide a link to support the above (bolded) statement?


I saw the statement below on CIC's website.

"Note: If your spouse or partner is not coming with you to Canada, or they are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, you will earn points as if you don’t have a spouse or partner".

This is the link to the post--https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/criteria-comprehensive-ranking-system/grid.html

Also, when using the CRS tool, question 2 says: "Is your spouse or common-law partner a citizen or permanent resident of Canada"?


I believe she can apply for Express Entry/FSW if she is eligible. She will choose married with a non-accompanying spouse.

I would appreciate if you could provide a link to buttress your point.

Thanks.

I don't think so. Fearing failure allows negativity to creep into our thoughts and actions, and before we know it, we begin to spread these thoughts which weaken success. Do not allow negativity to creep into your thoughts. Someone said he had surgery while undergoing medicals and yet he got PPR. I'd advise that you stay resolute and go for your medicals. May God favour you.

You can apply for a spouse open work permit for spouse and depending on the age of your child a study permit or temporary visa if you still have enough time left on your work permit. Visit this thread for more details. https://www.nairaland.com/2271485/canada-spouse-open-work-permit
You can also apply for visiting for both of them and when they get in they apply for the open work permit. Considering that your permit is already running out they might not readily grant this.
PR is a surer way to get them in as your Canadian study and work will give you an added advantage.
Thank you for your prompt response.
My Son is 7 years old now.
If I am applying for my spouse, using the SWOP route, he has worked for 15years and just retired some months back but he newly registered his private business where he does sales and events.
About to open a company account.

Kindly assist with the list of documents to be submitted plus any advise and tips will be well appreciated.

Thank you and may God grant all our wishes according to his will. Amen!!!

Lol... This guy called Elfmann en, u be case. Funny guy. I got my own hardcopy delivered to me via UPS last month, but no much difference with the soft copy, just the seal. I had to revert my spouse shipment (currently under verification) to Standard Delivery, without tracking option. Now I'm getting back $88.14 in a jiffy. They even referred to my request to revert the shipment as "overpayment" after reviewing my submission! Sincerely, my advice to folks is, download the soft copy and use in case you do not get the hard copy via Standard Delivery (there is no guaranty that it will get to you). If you succeed with your application, when you arrive Canada, you can always apply to WES to send you the hard copy to an address in Canada and at at a cheaper price.

if you are on POST ITA and have got your UCI/passed medicals, do well to register for an IOM session. it would prepare you for life in canada, job hustle and how best to plan. it is a free pre-arrival service funded by the Government of Canada. Dedicated to helping you and your family prepare for a new life in Canada.

Hello Deebay,

Someone posted this (the post below) on Canadavisa forum.


"To all who are facing this weird status - 'Your action is required'. About the issue, for me the medical status got updated to 'You passed the medicals' after 4 days and at the same time the profile status was also updated to 'Submitted' from 'Your action is required'. As I was worried, I called CIC in between and they told me to be patient as sometimes it may happen to some profiles (technical glitches). On the whole, it took 4 days for this status update. But I also know a couple of guys, who got an ADR after 1-2 days of this 'Your action is required' thing. Now, I have also crossed IP1 and moved to NA2".


I believe your profile (status) will be updated within the next few days. It will surely end in praise. smiley
