Don’t give up just yet. This process changes every time.God forbid it gets really hard by 2021 or Nigeria gets excluded from applying (like us lottery visa which many other countries still participate in and Nigerians are not allowed to anymore). There’s BCS (British council society) exam which when evaluated with your BSC gives two or more degrees in March. Pls use the search bar and read more about it. CRS must come down based on gravity lol. Please don’t wait till 2021/22

Thank you

I remember you saying something about having a skill, have you read up on the skilled traders programme yet? I don't know much about it, but check this link out and see if you're eligible

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/skilled-trades.html

Also, you can do other short courses as people have listed out. Trust me, the cut off will go very low in January judging from previous trends. So you have good time to get your self ready. Pls don't give up

how will it go very low when more people are joining the pool and more people will finish some other programs in december. do all you can to increase your scores . the scores are not going low. if there is no draw today crs will be 475 or more. as more people will pass ielts this friday and every 2 weeks.

Ifemide123:
Good morning everyone. I guess this is the point I have to step back and pursue a masters degree I have used the best ielts scores and I still didn't reach the cut off point with my bsc. A friend advised I just do it like that since I scored above 400, he said I'd get a PNP nomination. I am not fully convinced about that, but with two years of masters degree, I would be able to save more money, read more about the program and pass my ielts in flying colours.
I wish y'all the best. See you here in 2021/2022!

not advisable to do that. how are you certain scores wont be 500 then. abeg make hay while the sun shines. there is bcs in march 2020. when you get to canada do you master . no time my sister

WES equally accepts statement of result.

What’s up?

I wanted to ask you more questions about the hellofax, can I have ur email id

Lol I understand your concerns, but this PPR race is all about faith.

The liberals promised an increase in the quota for immigration to about 350k. The implication is that they might increase the draw size to 4k per each draw. If this is the case then the cut off can't be sustained at 470 or so. It'll come down to 450's.

Nothing is certain, we only act by faith. Isn't it better for her to get ready so that she jumps into the poll once the score starts coming down? Than to miss it completely??

Remember this quote "If we try, we might win, if we don't try we have LOST"

I like your optimism. There have been too many negative posts here lately. A major miracle would be the CRS scores taking a dive and theres also the possibility of snagging a NOI.

this is why you should face how to increase your scores instead of these permutations. 350 is all forms of immigration plus refuges not only EE. Its on their website. Per the 2019 and 2020 targets. Is about 4400 increase in 2020. Not materially significant i.e 180 more per draw. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/supplementary-immigration-levels-2019.html

Yeah, anything is possible. No one knows for sure what will happen next. It's the hope we have that keeps us going

Also, don't let the negativity get to you. Just keep pushing hard

in as much as miracles happen. Lets do our own part too. I have a friend who was on 435 last year and re did ielts. And maxed an extra module. Got ita in january he is currently shopping for flight ticket . Another missed it due to tie break rules and refused to act but hope( e.g max ielts, bcs and others). Today he has lost one 5 points to age and about doing CIMA. Some also rejected ontario pnp thinking scores will come down

Good day to you all,
Please I have a slight challenge.
I have a BSc in Accounting from Unilag but before this, I obtained a 1 year diploma in Accounting(Unilag) to enable me gain direct entry into the University. This means that I had a one year for diploma and 3 years for my Bsc programme. So my question is, will these documents be assessed by ICES as two or more certificates if they are provided for evaluation?
Awaiting your response.
Thank you.

How do I register for the bcs?

etyno:
You can only evaluate advanced diploma courses as information I got is that they dont issue transcripts for ordinary diploma.
You will also need to apply right now as application might close any moment from now.
And you can do everything on your phone with a debit card.
Blessings

Hi, it seems HRDC is back on track. I just called the number on their website and they said that they will forward the transcript wherever you want. But I'm still not totally convinced, I want to be sure I got the right info from the guy. Was it a trusted source you got your info from?

Also how can I do everything online? On the site, they said to take your reference number and pay in the banks on campus. How do I do it online? Thanks

Hello,
Just checking up on everyone. Hope you all are doing great.
For those waiting for ITA, I hope you get thr invitation soonest. And for those expecting the golden email.... Know that it would come, it will!

Was as VFS to submit the document required for the visa, the feeling was good mehn....
The whole process took about roughly 1 hour.

Hoping to get the COPR soon.

Anyone here gotten COPR recently? Mind sharing what the current average time to get a confirmation is?


Meanwhile, back on the application portal, nothing has changed. Everything still remains as it had been. Maybe these will change after COPR, I'm guessing.

It seems you guys are not getting @Tina26 point, You guys should leave miracles and faith on one side and work on how to increase your CRS scores by all means possible for those on the lower threshold. If you have the means, increase your scores while hoping for the best. It's safer to work towards meeting that high score than waiting for the scores to come down.

And the reality we don't want to accept is that these scores are never coming down to the way it used to be last year. Thank God PNP route is giving some people hope now.

The point is try to increase your scores any way possible rather than hoping it comes down. If you can't increase it anymore, then you hope and pray.

The Lord is good and everything He does is perfect. I have come to testify my dear brethrens. So sorry this is coming late, I've been so nervous to post. I didn't know if my story will interest you guys. I've been gathering liver. Lol.

Please forgive any typos or errors, this one is not Ielts. Also it's a long post o, please don't quote everything when you want to quote. Thanks


Even though I've always wanted to see the world by travelling to other countries, I have always still been pro Nigeria. I believed so much in her, even when people close to me relocated, I still believed everything will be fine one day. But everything changed when hubby and I got married last year. I just realized I cannot raise my children in this country. I don't want to. So here the journey began. The dream was born.

I had already been learning French, not just for TEF or EE but for the love of the language. Then I started preparing for TEF late 2017 when I didn't even have full knowledge of the process. I had a BSc and a PGD but I didn't even know my PGD would give any marks. Thought it was only masters degree and I didn't have it. This was because of the half baked info that I had then. So I decided to jejely respect myself and start TEF on time. SMH. I wrote TEF in September 2018 and the result came out in November. CE-B1, CO-B1, EE-B1, EO-C1. It was after writing TEF that I now heard my PGD could give me some points. In fact I wanted to even rewrite the TEF sef because it gave me just 8 points. I don't even know what I was thinking then sef. SMH. See eh research is good abeg.

September 2018, I started my ECA. Sending and confirming my BSc was easy, even though I had to pay for my confirmation. Lol. This country is amazing. But you see my PGD, that one was just trouble. Took over 2 weeks to send and over 1 month to confirm. I had to learn patience. We also sent WAEC. Everything was received and evaluation started. Hubby started his in October, but the two evaluations were completed the same time, January 7th, 2019 with mine as two or more certificates. Glory.

We both registered for Ielts. By then I hadn't discovered this forum, so you know nah, I said "is it not English? I've already passed it" lol. So I didn't do any serious studies. Hubby didn't even have enough time to do his work let alone study. Lol ok nah. 13th of October, I wrote mine: LRWS - 8,6.5,7,7.5. Hubby's: LRWS - 7,6.5,7,7. We were both mad. I needed a better score as the PA. But we couldn't afford rewriting over and over again. Money that we didn't even have. We were on a serious budget, worst part was that we didn't even know about remarking then. You know when you're doing something in isolation. We just picked up the pieces and registered for 15th of December. This time around, I studied and studied and studied. Then we prayed and prayed. I wrote and result came out nicer. LRWS - 8.5,8,7,8
We thanked God and moved on.

After the IELTS we did our Christmas in peace and waited for ECA. It came out on 7th January and boom 470. God is good. We created our profile the next day, 8th and we got ITA on 10th Jan. Wow. We weren't even ready. Hubby and I celebrated it like it was PPR. Again, we were not even ready. POF and all. Hmm

I have over 5 years work experience from different employers. I simply got reference letter on CIC format and bank statements highlighting the payments. That one was smooth.

For POF we used my mutual funds account. I had some of the money there. But hubby transfered a major part of the money so we had to add his bank statements to the reference letter gotten from the bank for my mutual funds.

We booked for medicals with QLife. The only date we could get was Feb 19th. We took it while we gathered other documents, POF especially. The day finally came and we traveled to Lagos for it. We did PCC with Officer Moshood at Alagbon and did medicals the next day. Hubby had a little problem with his medicals so he had to redo it about four days later. We ended up submitting on the 26th of Feb. AOR. God is indeed wonderful. Everything came together finally.

We got our MEP on 11th April followed by an ADR. They requested for a clearer evidence of change of name documents as the ones we uploaded were not legible enough. Grace. We quickly uploaded another one and on the night of 12th, we got our BIL. So we traveled again on Sunday 14th and did our biometrics on 15th.

The wait was the most trying time of our lives. All our plans were put on hold. As a new family, there were many things we needed and wanted to do, but we have to channel every plan towards Canada, if not it would somehow be waste of resources. Our application was pretty simple so we expected to get PPR in atleast 4 months. But all we got was dead silence. I personally was in 3 different groups. Lol. Hubby was in 2 but after a while the pressure got to him and he left the groups. Lol. People in our group were getting theirs left, right and centre but Ottawa was mute on us. We ordered GCMS in first week of June and got it first week of July. Criminality was passed, eligibility and security not started.
We waited and waited. We prayed and prayed. I didn't even smell any ghost updates. At a time I started thinking they had forgotten us but God does not forget his people.
We clocked 6 months on 26th August and nothing still. Anxiety grew. We raised multiple CSEs, mailed Ralph, mailed Erin, mailed Ottawa, called CIC and they all had generic responses. Nothing we didn't already know. I was weak. See eh I learnt patience by force.
I just got tired and left everything to God. If they want to give they should give abeg. I couldn't come and kill myself nah.

On 18th of September, hubby woke me up to our first ever ghost update. Additional documents changed to 'not applicable'. Hmm. A ray of hope. I went and checked on different people that got a ghost and ADR changed to not applicable and they all reported that they got PPR the next day. So we had our fingers crossed. On the faithful 19th of September, I was so expectant. I waited on Ottawa and by 10.44pm I saw the golden mail!!! I was shook. God is awesome. If I had 10 thousand tongues... We danced and prayed. Finally!!
I glanced at the mail periodically for the next three to five days. Hmm. I was in serious shock. Lol. We submitted passports on the 24th of Sept.

When submitting our passports, we had to send a friend as we didn't reside in Lagos. After three weeks, we got notification that it was ready. So we sent her again but they said someone can't collect for you. Neither of us could travel so we had to pay for courier. They delivered those two beauties to us on 21th October. God has been super awesome. I don't know what to type again o
My profound gratitude to you all on this thread for all your help and support even without knowing. I started this journey with little or no knowledge of the process, now I'm a guru, thanks to this thread. In fact hubby has been telling me I can even do agent work for people, but liver no dey. Lol. All the craziness, all the fights, all the selflessness, God will bless abundantly. May this blessing go around and we all get to feel this.
And to all the Whatsapp groups I joined, post ITA group, Feb AOR group, Indian group, Ottawa VO group, LMAO...no be small thing, you guys rocked beyond words. May God bless you all.

Oh I didn't tell y'all that we have a Canada baby baking in the oven...

Guys, there's something that has been bothering me and i think I need people's help or judgement.

From August 2014-Aug 2015 I worked with an e-commerce company e.g Konga/Jumia under noc 6552(not eligible for EE)

In 2015, the same company launched a payment gateway e.g Kongapay or Jumiapay and I was moved to this unit. It was still customer service but now strictly about payments and transactions only. You can click this link to understand better https://www.kongapay.com/ . I worked in this new unit for 2years plus before my current job.

My current job is noc 6314 and I have been here for 1 year and 8 months and is not sufficient to claim 3 years.

Please I need guidance on how to combine these.

Thanks in advance
