Hello,

Please can I be guided on how to go about applying? Before I get into the pool I need to understand the way to apply if my spouse and children are not resident in the same country with me.

I can't believe it. I have been screaming round my house since I saw the mail. After all the BP spikes and chest pain, here we are. Thanks to everyone who calmed me down yesterday. Please find my timeline below.

My journey started in 2016 when I decided to apply for EE using an agent. Wrote IELTS in September 2016, got my ECA and dived in. I had to reject the first ITA because I found out that my agent had made some 'modifications' to my work history, and wanted me to get my former employers to tweak things to that effect. The second ITA timed out due to POF issues. After that, I lost interest and decided to continue with my academics instead. By December 2017, my brother became a PR and I realized that I could get back the points I had lost due to having a birthday. Add to that the prospect of a wasted IELTS, I decided to give EE another go. And the rest, as they say, is history. I got ITA two weeks before my birthday at a CRS score of 451. Cut-off for that draw was 446, exactly 5 points below my score.

POF was my (accompanying) spouse's employee savings, the letter was not in any particular format but stated the current balance and how long he had been saving. I included his work history in the application since I knew our POF was somewhat tied to his job, so we had to get letters from his supervisors as well.

It's been a long and challenging journey - for all of us - but I know that our rest is near. To my fellow June AORs, thanks for the encouragement, you all are next in line.

Cheers. ~dances out with serious Niger Delta waist shaking~

Dear E-fam,

Please, I need your help on the following questions on filling the application form post ITA.

1. Relatives/ immediate family section: Is it for parents/ brothers/ sisters? i am a single applicant and do not have a child

Yes for parents/brothers and sisters


2. Are we supposed to update secondary education in the educational history?
No
3. Are we supposed to list our NYSC in our 10 years work history

This should be under personal history where you fill in everything since you were 18


4. For NYSc: SHould it be classified under "Government/ Military" activity type

I classified mine under unemployment that way it wont ask for reference or employer details ( a friend too did that and got ppr)

5. For periods of unemployment: what should one include as "name of employer, school, facility etc.) [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][b]

Unemployment means you didnt have a job so it should be blank during that period

Thanks all.

God bless.

I had known about this immigration program since 2014 because I kept getting unsolicited emails from one of the canada immigration consultants, but I just did not think it was worth the trouble especially when I saw I had to pay a fee to be assessed.

The decision to immigrate was finally made in October 2017, so I proceeded with WES evaluation in November and picked an exam date for IELTS. The result of IELTS was decent as I exceeded the 8777 requirement. Unfortunately, I could only achieve 413 as being grey, not having a masters degree and my ICAN certificate being almost worthless had depleted my score.

At this point, PNP was the way to go but sadly, Ontario decided to be the new CIC so I had to rule them out. I took up French classes all in a bid to improve CRS as the miracle of May 2017 was clearly not going to happen but oboi....that french thing is fun but no be beans oh.

Nova Scotia announced the opening of Category B stream for candidates without job offers on April 28th. Since my NOC was in demand, I grouped all my documents in folders and proactively waited for them.

I successfully applied after 5 exasperating hours of sitting on the floor and refreshing my browsers (Nova Scotia PNP is notorious for their website shutting down following the millions of candidates trying to win a spot and to make matters worse.....it's entirely free)

Thankfully, I was nominated 3 weeks after and as good mathematics students, you know what my CRS came to. Then the journey began.

ITA was received on May 30th ( This draw was unexpected).
AOR.......July 4th.
Medical was passed on 20th July( this date means alot).
IP2.........I really don't know the exact date because I stopped checking. It should be around August 14th.

Ready for Visa Email/PPR........August 28th.

This is to encourage all those looking at improving their scores. Just keep at it and I think desperation in chasing the scores is everything. We will all succeed because I want to be able to eat "oporoko" in that country when I choose.

To those contributing positively on this thread......you are everything.

Alright folks....je veux aller soumettre mon passeport.

ICES does not need to evaluate WASSCE if your evaluation is post secondary school and it was obtained from Nigeria.Each country has its requirements on their website,so if you click on Nigeria,you will see the requirements and in your case,it's just your M.sc.

Please use a simpler grammar. You know how many times it took me to make Ielts.

Sir the problem is that these questions have been answered several times just a little search will help.

Thank God, I have finally seen the long awaited ITA. The name of the Lord be praised. But I have a question, when I went to view my profile, I discovered that the transmitted has changed to red, but I am seeing 'in progress under wifey's education history. I had chosen Yes under that, but haven't filled in her university education history since we are still awaiting her ECA. We are expecting it by 21st of september.Please guys, hope that would not have any negative implication. Thanks.

Hello,

Please can I be guided on how to go about applying? Before I get into the pool I need to understand the way to apply if my spouse and children are not resident in the same country with me.

I am the principal applicant. Has anyone been in this situation before? I'm concerned because I am not sure how we will submit the Medicals, police report. I understand that it must be uploaded but hope it won't be queried if it Is seen that they were not gotten from the same location. The other concern is about the ppr. Will I have to return to my home country to submit together with my family or we can do it seperately. Please I need your advice before I begin so I can manage expectations. Been reading from part1 but I am yet to see a related case.

Thank you for thinking about this for me.

Elders in the house, pls I and my husband urgently need your assistance to complete our post ITA profile.

We go ITA during the last two draws. I am the PA. While completing our post ITA profile, we have to complete my husband work history section and provide references.

The problem now is that my husband was wrongfully dismissed from the bank in 2016 after 9 years of Meritorious service.
Pls our ITA completion date is ticking, we urgently need advise on what to do now.
