Hello guys,

So I woke up to see the golden RFV email on my phone after battling this journey for this long.

This came after I posted that I raised a CSE expressing the travesty that was done in the evaluation of my POF by the case officer who stated an amount well below what I had declared. I prepared my counter-argument and requested that a review be done again as I believe that this could be a reason for the delay I have experienced which is totally unfair.

However, so the story goes and on this note, my watch has ended.

I would like to thank everyone that has contributed by sharing info or providing updates of their journey as well.

CRS 461
AOR 29th Nov 2018

Please House, I just got the mail below from ICES;

Thank you for your email. We are pleased to advise you that your report was completed and mailed to you on June 28. Both copies were sent to your address in Lagos by regular postal service; no courier fee was paid for this. As per the requirements given to us by the IRCC, they do not want nor request a hard copy sent to them. That is not the process they have set up. They view the assessment online only. Therefore both copies have been sent to you. The courier fee you paid for that was refunded.

Please how long does it take to get regular mail delivered to Nigeria? Who has similar experience? I have sent a mail back requesting for a tracking number if available. It is almost a month since it was sent.

As per the fee that was refunded, no credit yet to my account. Don't know if that is bank related.

Hello All,

Please treat urgent:

so i intended using Treasure bills via GTBank as my funds were in my Gt account. but for some reasons, today i decided to opt for the stanbic mutual funds options.

however, i'd like to know what the processes are and the required documents i should obtain from the stanbic mutual funds people. furthermore, i have a feeling i'd transfer the funds to my stanbic account (since i have one, or no need?).... also, do i need to submit any doc from gtbank (statement, reference letter etc).

many thanks.

bamingo:
Good evening Canadians;

please advice a brother on which of the following investment options for my POF (sitting pretty in my account):

1. Treasury Bills - Primary market not available except secondary

2. Mutual Funds - don't know how to go about this.

3. Fixed Deposit

Silversurfer1:
Hi everyone. I've asked this question before but haven't received a better answer.
If you are currently unemployed, how do you go about stating it in the application? Do I get a reference letter from my last job and then explain the period of unemployment, or how do I do it?
Please help me. Lol
Thanks

My dear I'm still waiting, I thought they wanted to surprise me on my birthday in March when I saw a ghost update but ehn, the thing do me like film. Will clock 9months in a few days, my Edd is around the corner. But we don't gat no choice in the matter, Na them hold the knife and yam this time. God willing, it'll be right on time

TemiGee:
Lmao @Richness1104 That means you are a "Bob" if U know what I mean! Lol

Please don't come for me when marking my PPR script. Anyways I trust Mi Lady @LadyMarshall, I will ask for EOR

She's nice like that...

Natalie27:
i think you should just call.. With Qlife i believe the person you speak with determines the response, i was able to send a mail and book before ITA and even reschedule with favorable dates and this is very recent.

Bazbaby:
Good Morning, I have beeen a silent reader since January but now I am ready to unveil myself! I started my PR journey in January 2019.

So far:

IELTS completed overall 8
Wes accreditation of my masters completed
3 years of work experience

I dived into the pool last week with 451 points but based on recent draws I have to look for ways to boost my points. I am yet to claim any points for my spouse...I am already working towards that.

Please I have three questions that I need answered urgently:
1. If I get a gift deed from my parents, does that money need to be in my account till I get my PR?
2. I have read that it is better to notorize the gift deed, if I notorize the gift deed do I still need to include the witness signatures (this is based on the format I have seen here on Nairaland)
3. is it possible to book medicals at Qlife before ITA..

Thank you!

I’m a he/she, . Depends on who is asking.

stay positive! all things will work together for our good. Hang in there, it will end in praise.

Big congratulations to all ITA clinchers! I cele rate greatly with all of you! May God see the rest of us through!

I am really worried about the recent spike in draw points. After simulating my crs points,single,bsc,over 3 years work experience,ielts LRWS 9,9,7,7.5,and I will be 30 in August,my points ,using my age as 30 is 433. I am so scared, I do t know if the race will get stiffer..I just want someone to open to, before I use thinking wound myself. I am studying for the bcs exams,to boost my crs points..but I am still scared. When they remove tradeau, won't it get stiffer?

@Topsmamen @ifeoma77 and all the elders ........

Thaiy:
Hello Family,

I have just decided to applying Express Entry to Canada.

I juggled around crs but got a 425 points after using the highest scores at the IELTS �

I am single, age 32, with B.sc and over 4 years work experience.

WES - Done
PNP - None

Opting for M.Sc is not an option I can conveniently access at the moment.

PNP as it’s known takes months.....not an option either.....last resort maybe.


Kindly advice on best possible steps I can take.

Thank you.

melochic:
It’s the Lords doing and it’s marvelous in my eyes.

Special thanks to Everyone who gave valuable advice, insight and dropped a word of hope during my long wait.

Awwww...so sorry I "took" your time .

@bolded: still so grateful I can't explain eloquently. God is Good. I deliberately put the story out there to encourage and guide someone who may need to take such bold steps. I genuinely pray it ends pleasantly well for us all. Congratulations in advance.

Amen to your prayers and yeah, "NL Band 9.5" feels so good
