GraciousWords: Page 1 FAQ 34 also study this link carefully: https://www.nairaland.com/6081746/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/588#102548277
IF your personal CRS after changing to spouse accompanying is still above the draw CRS of 354, then you can change to spouse accompanying pre AOR, nothing do you.
However, if your personal CRS drops below the draw CRS of 354 when you change to spouse accompanying, then obviously don't.
AFAIK if you were already married (but spouse accompanying) pre ITA, then whether you add spouse post ITA, pre AOR or post AOR, the change will affect your CRS.
Some people say they added accompanying spouse post PPR - search NL for them. Thank you so so much..Too far too kind |

Hello House, my profile was SPOUSE UNNACCOMPANIED due to our pursuit of points, but I got ITA yesterday for the Agric food program, and the CRS was at 354 which means I can add my wife without being ineligible due to points..I hope there is a way I can include her post-ITA (pre-AOR)..  |

chimzyblack: Guys, apart from BCS certificate, what other certificate can one use to complete the 2 or more certificate option. Currently have a B.Eng degree. Wrote the BCS exam in april, my result was not favourable due to classes clashing with my work hours and the course content of the exam being very broad. Registering for that exam a second time will take approximately six months for the results to be out.
Hello Bro, why don't you get your Bsc Transcripts and apply for a pre-HND with Kings Polytechnic and save yourself some stress...You get your evaluation in 21days and they have an electronic exchange with WES...I just helped a friend with her own and WES just evaluated it..It is legal and straight forward
The painful part of it all is that I added it to my Wes ECA. My degree has already been evaluated waiting for the BCS transcript to be released, only for this to happen. |

EconFinance: Please I have a question.
I did not add my Masters degree on my WES
I only used my B.Sc and a second certificate to gain points as 'two or more certs"
Is it possible for me to add my Masters degree now even though I have already applied ?
And can "To Whom it May Concern" backed with the transcripts work in lieu of the certificate? Thank you Yes it can, you just write to WES telling them to remove the Bsc & other certificate, that you want to evaluate your Masters(that is extra 8pts for you).. Good luck |

SuppoOmoo: Hello Sir and Ma...
Pls, I want to seek sabi peoples advice, especially people who have already relocated via Express Entry/PNP
Yes, I have read a number of pages here and have gained a lot.
My uncle (a civil engineer) and his wife (a senior nurse at UCH then) with their two kids relocated to Canada more than a decade now. I didn't actually know the route they took, I had just finished my SSCE at the time and wasn't exposed to relocation stuff.
Yeah, to God be the glory, they are doing fine (they've got a number of investments in Naija).
A couple of weeks ago, he, my uncle called my mum (his younger sister) and during the conversation, he tried to get my mum talk to me if I would be willing to relocate or I am already satisfied with the job I am doing in Naija.
Since he relocated, we had only spoken three times, and those moments were during festivities when he would speak to everyone present at family house. I never for once called to request a penny from him. Other family members do. I am kind of independent personality. It is my present job that is making me change that mentality as it requires team work.
I hold a BSc and a Master's degree and working with FG (Paramilitary Job). I joined in 2019, that's 3+ years now on the job. Yeah, I had tried the US via schooling for Masters but no success. Since then, I locked up.
Now, due to my mum's insistence, I called the said uncle and after a few bashing from him that I'd not be calling him, that maybe I am okay with Naija job, I want to become the N0 1 in my job bla bla bla. I sha apologies and he put it to me straight that I am marketable based on my education level and job experience and would want to facilitate my relocation via PNP. He is in Manitoba. He added that he had done for few people from his wife's side.
Now, having read the long process involved on the thread with what he also chipped in to prepare.
ECA via WES for my Masters Degree. Writing Ielts general Passport PCC Medicals RL from my employer Payslips etc All these for me and my wife. All these will take significant part of my savings. In fact, I have started spending.
I just created an account and paid WES fees ($250) yesterday. I've also contacted my school for transcript. This alone is taking 200k from me. That of my wife will likely take more that 200k cos she holds (ND, HND from different polytechnic)
Shey Someone who is willing to facilitate relocation will not support in the pre-ITA process? And i don't wanna ask. It appears he is only providing POF.
For me, I am kind of scared considering spending all my savings on this route. My main challenge is that immediately I clocked two years in my present job in 2021, i got a house on a mortgage of 20year repayment plan via Federal Mortgage Bank.
Also, I checked my skill level on NOC, I am rated on band C (High School graduates). People have narrated how people struggle to get accommodations and other needs. Yeah, I am not so comfortable here but, but, but,...
My head is full of these thoughts after paying WES fees yesterday.
Pls I want sincere inputs, especially from people in Manitoba to guide my decision either to continue the process or not Is your wife 31yrs or younger..?? Does she have 3yrs working experience..  Then she could be the primary applicant...If your work experience is NOC C(I'm not used to the TEER system yet), then you won't be eligible...You both can then go for FSW instead of the PNP.. |

Prettiepearlz: I think hers was kind of different because she had a baby on the way or something. Hers might not be considered based on the reasons used for the other lady. I don't think it is because of the baby, I think I even read somewhere on canadavisa, that someone can add a spouse after PPR..There isn't much info about this online, even myself was very surprised when the lady shared her story, and also said that she read up on it before going ahead to add her husband.. |

olalekan9320: maybe they were not married at the time of submission. The one I know that re-added after AOR, the husband had to write IELTS and the likes and was sent through webform They were married at the point of submission, she added her husband after PPR...She was confident that it is doable and legal, but I think maybe it is after PPR instead of AOR.. |

weaseloo: Has anyone experienced travel to Canada with a valid British passport but an expired Nigerian passport?
I could not renew my passport in time for my trip due to NIN issues. It is either I travel or cancel the whole thing. Let me use my common sense(I stand to be corrected)....From your statement, we can deduce you are both British and Nigerian, why not use your British passport and travel, I doubt if there is a law that forbids you from not using your British passport, if the Nigerian passport is expired...I suggest you continue with your travel plans |

Aniejasmine: Hello house Please I need advice. I’m currently in the pool with a crs score in the high 490’s, I’m married and had put down my spouse as non accompanying. However now my spouse is suggesting he would like to come along now (my initial plan was to sponsor him when I land). The problem is, he isn’t willing to do IELTS or get his ECA so all I’ll do is loose points. I’ve lost 28 points from adding him to my application. I know spousal sponsorship can take as long as a year but I also don’t want to waste time and miss out on the possibility of ITA this year when my IELTS expires in a couple months. Suggestions please? I think there is another way out, which is unpopular..A lady said she included her husband as accompanying after getting PPR as unaccompanied...She said it is legal tho not popular among people, maybe you can tow that path... You need to get ITA as soon as possible with that score as changes to EXPRESS ENTRY would commence from the 1st quarter of next year.. Good luck |

Remicynt: So I said let me share the good news!!! After several consultation I decided to go ahead to send webforms for my spouse to be changed to Accompanied. Thanks to God we got BVl on d 18th of May and finally got PPR on the 6th of June with my spouse and daughter. Our first ppr was for me and my son while the second covered Us all.
Glory be to God in d highest!!!! I discovered something in the process tho. Plz let me get this well: You got ITA with your spouse as unaccompanied, then you got PPR as unaccompanied, sent a webform to add your spouse post-PPR, then your spouse was added without them requesting for IELTS and ECA..

Ennymama: Hello gurus in the house,
Please I need your advice. I saw a sponsored ads on Facebook about Canada Jobs. It also captioned that the company will sponsor the visa. I picked the number and chatted on WhatsApp. I was asked to send my CV to their email and after 24hours, I was mailed that my qualifications met their requirements. I was offered job as a Drill Engineer for the Oil and gas company. I was later sent Temporary Residence Visa Form to fill as well as Labour Market Impact Assessment(LMIA) form and Job agreement letter(that have in it that I will be responsible for the biometrics fee while other cost till arrival will be handled by the company). I filled and signed where necessary and returned them with my International passport as requested.
After few days, I was mailed to send the LMIA , Visa Form and my International passport to the lagos embassy of Canada through the email they gave (lagos@vfsglobal.g-c.online, so as to book my biometrics. I did as instructed and after few hours, got a mail from the said lagos embassy mail that my documents have been reviewed and i should proceed to pay for my biometrics through the payment link supplied so I can be given date for the biometrics. The biometrics fee is $116 CAD and processing fee is $91 CAD, bringing total to $207 CAD which amounted to #66,549.89 or pay same into one CEDI SIGNAL ZENITH BANK account and send receipt to them.
I am confused as to being real or not which is the reason I seek your genuine and honest advice.
Thanks. Kai..CEDI SIGNAL for Biometric fee and processing fee payment,comrade you sef check am now, the honest advice is that you are about to be SCAMMED..I read where you said you sent your Int'l Passport, I hope it is the photocopied or soft copy cuz if it is the hardcopy, you are creating more issues for yourself..Them wan drill you and your momey |

Also, if your spouse a graduate but abut have been self employed, would need documents like tax returns and pay slips for Canada Express Entry? Spouse's work experience doesn't count if he/she is the secondary applicant, just move it to personal history when the time comes..If the Self-employed spouse is the secondary applicant, then it isn't required, but if he/she is the primary applicant,then revert to Page 1 to see the required documents.. |

I am 29 years old, with HND in Food Science & Technology. Both HND & ND has been evaluated by WES for the purpose of Canadian PR.
I have IELTS score of LRWS 8,8,7.5,7, though currently planning to take TEF.
I currently work has a bank teller/customer service officer for more than 3 years but I learn't that this doesnt count towards work experience.
I have worked as a Production Officer In a Food Industry (2 years) and also has A teacher during NYSC.
Please, I need advise
Bro, jump into the pool..The 2yrs work experience and NYSC should give you 3yrs which gives Max. Score..There should be no need for TEF as age is still on your side..You can try maxing out your IELTS |
