Is she Post ITA or Post AOR?

Since it doesn't change her scores, i think she can give it a try. However, she should read up on her own. Download the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations and digest every line in it. If she decides to add him now, she will need a letter of explanation that is supported by the law and not anyone's opinion. She should assumé she is defending her position in court and présent her position as such.

If it were me, i will research and research and research again before i decline this invitation. I will look for any loophole to explore to add my Hubby.

What i do know is that it will be more difficult to add him after AOR, but since she has not submitted her application...

IMO..

Let your sister weigh her options Well. IRCC gives opportunity for "change in circumstances" The most important thing is that thé change in her circumstance did not reduce her CRS.

This is my opinion...

The décision is hers alone

How is her case a change in circumstance? Wasn't her husband there pre-ITA?

Adding her spouse will definitely drop her CRS and she can't just add her spouse's ECA and IELTS now to influence her scores and make her eligible.. You can't add anything that contributes to your eligibility after ITA, that's like cheating the system and her application will definitely be rejected. .there are people waiting for their spouse's ECA and IELTS inorder to be eligible and improve their CRS, you think they don't know what they're doing??.

She either goes ahead as unaccompanied or declines the ITA as including her husband reduces her CRS below the cutoff for her round...

This is just my opinion based on experience gained in this journey, as you rightly said, the decision is hers alone..

Well call Mr Omoyeni 08056447218 NECO office Illupeju Lagos

In all I think I spent 25k
You'll do remitta payment in any bank 1000k + bank charges.(ask him for the process o I made mistakes and had to pay twice)

20k is for waybill to Niger & Canada and other NECO charges (Confirmation of result) I think is what they call it.

You'll have to fill some forms at NECO office

You will need to buy NECO scratch card as well very important (WES requires it).

Print a copy of your NECO result as well (recommended)

The remaining 2k was for him to drink 'coke'.( your discretion though)

I think the process takes 3 - 4 weeks.(excluding WES delay)

Make sure you have the right WES address.

Just call him, he'll walk you through. Though I think I've covered all the basics.

Good luck

God bless you Chukwuemeka!

PM me

Done. Thanks

Pls I want to inquire.
A friend already evaluated her bsc with ICES. But her scores are too low so she wants to start PGD in noun.

Will she have to evaluate the two degrees (pgd &bsc) together or she should just evaluate the PGD alone since she has evaluated the bsc before.

Read exception No. B

As i said earlier, if it were me, i will explore any loophole available and write my LOE with proof from Canadian immigration laws.

Kmgb1:


She cant??Im not sure thats totally correct,but i dont have the proof at my fingertips tips..like someone advised,she should do a thorough research or even tweet at them to ask

It's only when you have the luxury of high CRS scores that you can take a gamble like that. She's not in that category. As at the time she got the ITA, Her CRS score with husband accompanying is not enough to get ITA. This is what the IRCC agents will calculate. They will not add the ECA for her.

Wowwww thank you for this Ada. When you raised a CSE, did you get any ADR?

Adaoh:
I don't know if this is useful but I raised a CSE for my new job late Jan 2019 and got my PPR in early Feb. I hope this helps.

Ocon:
Please, in a situation where someone's certificate is not ready, does WES accept statement of result or notification of result in place of the Certificate.

Amylew:
Thanks lot Ifeoma.
Will do some more research.
Its still post ita.
7 weeks time is birthday.

7 weeks hmmm. It's quite close. That gives chances for approximately 3 draws.
The new score of 445, does it include hubby's IELTS as well as ECA?
If I was in her shoes, I will decline.
Adding him now post ITA will likely end in rejection. Sponsorship route is no joke. The odds are good that cut-off drops to 445 within the next two draws, infact the odds are good that cut-off drops to 440 this year.
If hubby didn't write IELTS, then he should do that to better the odds.

Hello Seniors,

I am Post-ITA, please I need some help

1. what is the difference between Proof of Sibling PR and Family member proof of status. I have the two placeholders and they both seem to refer to my sibling's PR card. Do i upload the same card in both places?

2. Also under proof of sibling relationship, I have my birth certificate with our parent's names but my sibling cannot find his own birth certificate. What other document can be used for this?

Thank you

One is to prove that the person is a PR and the other is to prove that the person resides in Canada right now.
PR card will do for the first placeholder and for the other one, I guess things like recent Bills, drivers license and the like.
Are you Catholics? Do you have baptismal cards/certificates. That might work but the most ideal is the birth certificate. He should search well biko

Chai. This is really bad. I blane our people who want things easy without wanting to make an effort. This thread is littered with questions which reasonable diligence would answer. That's our bane as a people in this country. I am usually bothered when someone tells me something I could have found out for myself with little effort.

I realise that this journey to Canada is a life long, life altering one, so I'm not leaving anything to chances or the discretion of another human being. We should all endeavour to do same. It is your very life at stake mate!

You can fax your Statement of Result to WES. But if you want to have peace of mind, give your School the Statement of Result to send to WES together with your Transcript.

Good evening Nairalanders, hope all is going well... Please I will like to know your thoughts in a situation like this...
I entered the pool With spouse unaccompanied ,just I and the kids ,because hubby said he is busy at the moment, but after ItA he said I can now add him in the application,
Please since I have gotten ITA do he still need to do evaluation ECA and take IELTS?
My crs score is 462

If you want to add him now, decline the ITA and then add him. It's up to you (and your CRS) whether he does ECA and IELTS or not (or IELTS alone)

3-4 weeks for just NECO evaluation, that can be done in 6days? Anyway, the problem with some people on this thread is that, they dont read. We've covered this process here on this thread before.

Hello everyone, quick question, if you submitted POF for a period of time before AOR and now you get an ADR requesting for updated POF but you do not have the specific amount available in the account at the moment. If you get the huge lumpsum deposited into the account will it raise a red flag? Or is it better to change to a gift deed at this point. Thank you

It will definitely raise questions. You’d need to explain the lump sum. Do a gift deed to attest that you were given the funds by your sponsor.

They do

Ocon:

Sthill5:

Lol

Damn..I just didn't want to argue. Hopefully they will know the truth sooner than later

I told them its 435 even sent the link to calculate themselves. They insist its 462 because Uncle Cohen said so. I no talk again

Ah..they will see u as an enemy of progress o. You want to reduce their score from 462 to 435! David Cohen here the come.

Btw a friend of mine told me about something similar yesterday..let me just show her this thread.

Thank you so much for your response @ifeoma77

1. There is another placeholder for Proof of Residency, which is where i attached his utility bill. I am assuming the reason for the repeated placeholder is because i included him in the list of family members as well. There are four placeholders in total: Proof of Sibling PR, Proof of Sibling Residency, Proof of Sibling relationship and Family member proof of status. Not sure.

2. We are not Catholics and he has exhausted all means to find the birth certificate even searching for scanned copies of it. However, he included my name in his PR application and i was hoping attaching both our international passports, my birth certificate and some family photos might help.

Please advice. Thank you

2. Also under proof of sibling relationship, I have my birth certificate with our parent's names but my sibling cannot find his own birth certificate. What other document can be used for this?

Thank you

1. Proof of Sibling PR: This is to show evidence of your sibling’s PR status in Canada such as their PR card or signed copy of their CoPR (if PR card is not yet ready). You can also add a copy of the stamped visa on your sibling’s passport.

— Family Member Proof of Status: This would have the same proof as 1 above. Sibling’s PR card or CoPR, passport etc. This means you’d upload same documents in both placeholders.

2. You can get an affidavit/attestation of birth document for your sibling. This will suffice.

No problem. Tell them to give you a salary certificate.

1. The Family member proof of status and Proof of PR/Citizenship of Sibling placeholders will carry the same proof.

2. Proof of residency in Canada of Sibling will hold utility bills as you have already uploaded.

3. Proof of sibling relationship should hold your birth certificate, his birth attestation document, both the bio-data pages of your international passports.

Won't this be an issue? Even if he/she got a gift deed before submission and did not disclose this in the application, why is the money not still in the account. It may raise red flags now to start talking about gift deed and explaining lump sum deposits when it wasn't used in the first place. If they used an account and the money is no longer there, what they should be showing is why the money is no longer there. For example did they do a fixed deposit? Treasury bill? Etc I think it would be better to submit one of these certificates as proof of POF than to start doing a gift deed when PPR is around the corner

We are really enjoying on this thread.

Someone I know paid David Cohen..he didn't even breakdown the process to them. Just collected first payment and asked them to send IELTS result and Evaluation report. They didn't even know about them. Next thing they are asking for second payment.
Cohen even told them their CRS is 462
But its 435 using the wife as PA at age 29,3 years work experience and only a Bsc

Husband has HND with age 42 so he can't be PA

I calculated 435 but I have no idea why Cohen is telling them 462

Thank you @Topsmamen. I will do just that. Appreciate your help.

Same thing Canreach immigration did to me. It was after I paid over 500k that they sent a lengthy mail on ECA, IELTS, PCCs and so on. That was in 2016. I didn't even understand CRS score and all that.

The person who first introduced me to EE said it was Canreach that did theirs for them. She was just an accompanying spouse who either knew next to nothing about the process or couldn't be bothered to put me through. She never even mentioned CRS score to me before convincing me to pay Canreach. I trusted her and that was how I lost 500k.
