Ladies & Gentlemen, This is our PPR story !!

Profile Created on November 13, 2018.

BC: IELTS : PA ( June 2, 2018) : LRWS : 8,8,7,7
BC: Spouse( Oct 27: 2018 ) : 8,8.5,6.5,7.5 .
ITA – NOVEMBER 15. CRS: 461- CUT OFF: 449.
NOV 21, 2018 – eAOR
DEC 28, 2018 – MEP/BIL
DEC 29,2018- GHOST UPDATE
DEC 31,2018 – BIOMETRICS COMPLETED @ VFS, LAGOS.
JAN 11,2019 – RAISED A WEB FORM FOR VO STATUS
JAN 15,2019- RESPONSE TO WEBFORM QUERY
JAN 21,2019- ‘HOW TO GET A JOB IN CANADA ‘ MAIL
JAN 23, 2019 (Dated Jan 22, 2019) COPR/PPR -

Madam is the PA. I am the coordinator/chief finance officer (self assigned role).

ITA – NOVEMBER 15. CRS: 461- CUT OFF: 449.

Medical at IOM – Nov 16. (Family of 5).
Notes: Network issues at IOM on NOV 16. Wasted time but we insisted we could not come back as we are not based in Lagos .E- medical forms were not provided due to aforementioned network issues but were later sent to my email on Nov 19 (Monday).

Medical & Police report was concluded same day. We returned to base on Saturday.

APPLICATION SUBMISSION/PAYMENT – NOVEMBER 21.
AOR – NOVEMBER 21.

We didn’t enter the pool until November due to delay in Madam’s pharmacy verification by PEBC. I have earlier updated her PEBC profile with a new Canadian address to fast-track receipt of the ECA from PEBC.

We used the ECA delay to plan adequately and get all documents in place. Our medical timing is fallout of these plans.

POF: (bank account + no objection letter). I used funds from one of my bank accounts for entire POF. As the accompany spouse, I wrote letter of no objection. No transfer was done to the PA’s account and no statement of account was uploaded. However, I got the Proof of funds letter in CIC format from my bank.

WORK EXPERIENCE: My wife got the work experience letter in CIC format. As an accompany spouse, I couldn’t get my company to approve work experience letter in CIC ‘s format. I uploaded the following instead: The request letter I wrote to HR; the response letter from HR (request was denied anyway). I also included promotion letters, pay stubs. Please note I have only worked for one company since I graduated from University. My documentation was pretty concise for this reason.

LETTER OF EXPLANATION: None. I tried to keep the application as simple as possible. So I didn’t see a need to write a letter of explanation.

Travel Histories: We have multiple travel histories to all major countries including Canada. One of my children is also a US citizen.

In particular reference to Canada, I have just renewed one of my daughters Canada visit visa in June 2018 .It will expire in 2023. So I included the UCIs in our applications. I guess they will probably cancel the visit visa though.

Siblings: My brother is a Canadian citizen. We claimed the statutory 15 points.
I also have a sister who is a PR holder. I once posted a story of my sister whose application was cancelled due to non-acceptance of ICAN certificate presented by her husband. You all knew how the ‘protest’ letter sent by her husband got the decision upturned culminating in the successful approval of their application.

$2700 - N765541= 283.533/1 CAD. – GT_RATE @ NOV 21.

MEP/BCL: DEC 28,2018. We got the email notification at 9.51pm. It came with the statutory biometric letter for madam and I.
1ST ghost update: DEC 29, 9.51pm. We got email for an update in our account profile. I checked. Nothing. I told madam she has just experienced her first ‘ghost ‘ update.
Biometrics was done at VFS Lekki on December 31, 2018.

I am a member of the NOV AOR whatapp group created by ‘RAMJ’. The group is quite active with constant engagement and banters on wide range of immigration related topics. I raised our first webform on January 11, 2019 to enquire about the VO treating my case, as this was a hot topic on the platform. CIC responded to my query on JAN 15 that our file is being treated at CIO (central intake office in Sydney, Nova Scotia; ‘‘the responsible office is currently verifying if our application meets the eligibility requirement’’.

Jan 21, 2019, I received the famous ‘ How to get a job in Canada form ‘. Again, in reference to our NOV 2018 whatapp group, we have had discussion on the significance or otherwise of this particular letter to the whole Canadian immigration journey. Some reported, and rightly so, that their files were transferred to another visa office, mostly the infamous ACCRA visa office a day after receiving the letter according to their GCMC feedback.

I started writing this story on receipt of eAOR , Nov 21, 2018 . It is humbling to conclude the final chapter in Jan 23, 2019 – 63 days post AOR. We thank God.

Hi Everyone,

I understand I would need to show birth certificates of my sibling and I if I'm to claim points for sibling. Can attestations of birth documents be alternatives to birth certificates in this case?

Anyone pls?

Attestation of birth letter from National Population Commission would do.
But please be aware that date of birth fraud is a crime of misrepresentation. If caught you will be striped of your permanent residency or citizenship if you're already a citizen.

I have tried my GTB Naira Debit Mastercard and it didn't work

Thanks. I really appreciate. I plan to register in some months time after much practice. My previous exams I did not involve in much practice... even when I practice now I still don’t know why I miss out the answers while listening to the audio. Also, I notice major problem on the 3rd and the 4th sessions of the listening test especially the multiply choice questions. On the reading, I do have problem with matching headings and it takes me a lot of time getting main idea of paragraphs. Please what can be my best way to solve this problems
