I was never the type that wanted to relocate to Canada because I loved my job here and doing fairly ok. I was of the belief that one day naija go better I even used to discourage people that talk about relocating. I had a colleague at work and he was always reading for ielts that was as far back as 2015 and I asked him why he was studying and he said no hope for us in this country that he wants to go to Canada he even explained the process to me that we should do it together I told him forget I am not going anywhere. I even remember abusing him that he should not worry he will come later and be asking me for contracts when I become boss. Not until I had a terrible accident and almost lost my life I spent three months in the hospital with one week in ICU . It was a terrible time for me and my family cos it came unexpected. While I was in d hospital I started reminiscing what next after this then I remembered my friend that told me about Canada years ago he was already there chilling and I said chai see my life only if I listened to this guy, I decided on the spot that if God can see me through and I leave this hospital I must do this Canadian PR. As soon as I left the hospital I called him and he gave me a summary of the process then i decided to do my own research and I stumbled on this thread. Wrote my first ielts a month after I left the hospital I had not even recovered but I was desperate to leave the country so would do what it takes. I remember during the ielts exam people were just staring at me that see this sick person coming to write exams but I was determined. Result came out and I had lrws 6.5,8,7,7.5. meanwhile I started the wes process it was farely straightforward as I have a foreign degree so no stress. That ielts reslt humbled me because I have never failed an exam I was so down but my family members encouraged me and said with this your condition you still did well but I was already discouraged. I even told my wife I was no longer interested again all because I could not just come to the fact that I must re write the exams. She said nothing like that ohh she was not interested in the process initially I was the one that convinced her now I want to back out and she said not even considering money spent on wes for both of us and ielts. You know how convincing women can be but thank God I listened. I had to travel abroad for treatment so I told her when I return and in a better state of mind I will write it. A year after the first ielts I registered for the second and I booked it less than three weeks to the actual exam date lo and behold did well in the second ielts.

Created EE profile immediately I got the result and then dived straight into the pool not too long after ITA came and then we started gathering all documents.

POF : I used T-bills that covered the entire POF then added buffer with my account statement cos I did not know what exchange rate will be used. Got tbills certificate and then letter from my bank in ircc format also added six months statement of account

Work reference: also that was easy for me to get in IRCC format I included my employment letter and my boss complimentary card
I sent in my application and got AOR on 23/10/2018. I remember after I submitted I read on this thread that we had to include our ielts test result sheet but I did not. I became jittery but then I just prayed about it that God should favour me and yes He did.

The wait for mep/bil started then it came a month after aor. I could not do my biometrics on time because I had to go on a work trip and my passport was with the embassy, it was taking longer than usual, my village people wanted to show themselves this is a country that the visa does not take time but mine took unusually long. After over a month of waiting for what usually takes two weeks it finally came and went to do the biometrics the day after I got my passport back.

Then the wait began I started becoming anxious but then God just reminded me that there are people who have waited beyond the six months and nothing still, I just kept on praying but then the human factor must surely set in.

Finally on 22nd feb I saw ghost update that was on Friday evening I called my wife and told her that next week we will get this ppr and surely God did it, came on Monday 25th and ended in praise.

I want to thank people on this forum because you guys rock, words cannot be used to show my appreciation to those that started this thread.

For those already in the process I pray it ends in praise for you all and for those that are yet to start this thread should be your manual cos there in nothing about this journey that you would not find here.

Even though I am a silent follower of this thread but then I am here to offer assistance to those in need of guidance on the whole process.

Above all don’t forget God in this journey pray hard if you can fast make sure you do because God is able to do more than what we desire.

OK, thanks
nat138:



Rule of thumb is to have your medicals as close to application submission as possible. Simply because medicals have a one year validity and as much as you maybe sure of ITA soon if that is even predictable these days. If you are not able to submit your application on time and it stretches to the 60days period which is almost 2/3 months on your medicals already and your application takes a long time to decide, your medicals might expire or if PPR is granted very close to medical expiry, you will need to redo medicals at some point

Hi guys! You guys are doing great work here.

My fiancée is in the process of acquiring a PR in Canada from her family ties ie. Her siblings are PRs. She is currently in Canada with her family on a visitor visa and would remain there until she gets it. I would like to know whether it is possible for me to also get a Canadian PR after we get married or what is the procedure and what are my options being that I am in Nigeria?

Sup guys,
I'm back again and IELTS has done it again.
I just checked my result online and here we go again:

FEB 14TH 2019: LRWS- 8.5, 8.0, 6.5, 8.0 (BC)

This would be the 5th test.
other results are:

1st APRIL 2017: LRWS- 8.5, 6.5, 6.0, 7.5 (BC)
2nd OCT 2017: LRWS- 7.0, 8.0, 8.0, 7.5 (BC). EOR came back like an occupied body bag.
3rd SEPT 8TH 2018: LRWS- 8.5, 7.0, 6.0, 8.5 (MOD). EOR upgraded Writing to 6.5
4th SEPT 29TH 2018: LRWS- 8.0, 7.0, 6.5, 8.5 (MOD). EOR came back with ZERO INERTIA.

I would raise another Bank Draft for EOR as i've got no other option.
i would be requesting for a remark of W&S at the point of collecting my TRF on Friday as they only open for collection on MONDAYS, TUESDAYS & FRIDAYS .
Right now i feel no heart beating, I just need to keep kicking.

@joo2018 @CanadasGOAT

This one is one chance o. She has to come back and pay groom price on your head before you can get PR now. grin I kid

In my opinion you have three options
- if you guys were to get married now, she can apply to add you to her application. A number of people have done it, some have gotten pr, others are still in the process

- However, since the application is already in progress, and a wedding is not possible for now, you may have to wait until you're legally married then she can sponsor your own application once hers is complete.

- Or you can take steps to start your own pr process from here

These are the options I can think about now, maybe more experienced peeps can weigh in
