Hello guys. Please I have a little problem. I just tried creating a profile and I got the message that I'm not eligible. I have 8.5,8,7,8 in LRWS while my spouse has 5,5,6,7.5 in LRWS. I have B1,B1,B1,C1 in TEF and I'm 27. But I'm getting "not eligible" in the account I'm trying to create. Please someone help me. I'm new here. Thank you

Congratulations to PPR clinchers...

A quick one, my AOR is August 9, my passport is expiring 22nd June, 2019.
Eligibility- not started
Security- not started
Criminality- Met
VO- Ottawa
Number of days left to hit months- 33 days.

Is it advisable I renew my passport now and raise a CSE uploading the new one or I hold on hoping I get PPR within the 6 months frame?

If I'm to renew, can anyone help with a faster place I can get the passport done and if possible get it same day or next and the cost? Location is Lagos.

Thanks.

Does this type of affidavit applies to variance in date of birth too?

kfrosh:
Yes, as long as the child is also applying for Canada PR.

Good afternoon friends and happy New year. Please does a child who is a US citizen need to do medical examination? Thanks

etrange:
Thanks bro. I don cast myself shaa. I was actually trying to avoid uploading my Bsc cert cause of the spelling error in my name there.

In The Beginning...
This journey started sometimes in 2013 when a senior colleague tried to convince me to apply for the old FSW program, i had mixed feelings because of the amount of time it takes to process the applications. He mounted serious pressure on me (Cos we are so close even though he was a senior colleague) and i started my first ECA in March 2014... While that was ongoing, i applied for Study permit to Canada earlier in 2014 and was denied. I then changed focus to the UK, got Tier 2 Work visa along the line... We got the visa and we were welcome to the UK by Mama Charlie. While still processing Canada, we had hoped to join the express entry in 2015 since we heard it will be faster to process... However, as God will have it, Pounds gained against Naira and the rest is history...

Broken English...
As at the time of writing my first IELTS in 2015, i didnt really know i was suppose to get 8777, all i knew then was that i just need to write IELTS but our points were way lower than 400. When the IELTS expired, my profile became ineligible but as at then, i had put a hold on Canada because 1 Pound was over N500, my brother and sister in the lord, if na you nko? One faithful afternoon, i was on the train back home when a thought came to my head that why not try and register for this express entry again? as at then, most of the people looking up to me for advise had already gotten PPR or in Canada already, I registered while still on the train, the exam day was less than 1 week and i managed to get LRWS 9, 7.5, 7, 8.5... Got back into the pool but still low. Wifey had completed her MSc then, so we tried to make her PA but after 5 IELTS attempts (Ko easy ooo), i had to restrategize... I know our best chance would be for me to get additional certificates... That is another battle


Search for Golden Treasure...
The search for additional certificate was a serious battle. As at that time, i had already started my MSc program in a UK university, Completion is still a long way to go because its Part Time... Too many things in between to mention but to cut the long story short... I finally enrolled for ACCA Diploma and as God will have it, it was evaluated as 3 years while others were getting 1 semester. Please dont ask me how it happened cos If you ask me, Na who i go ask? God did it! I added the certificate and boom, we moved to 440. Did i mention that if wifey had passed her IELTS, we would have scored 460+? Well... now you know!


ITA Feeling...
Being a semi assistant deputy elder in this group, i had thought ITA will come as normal and nothing will happen, my brethren, na lie ooo... The day the ITA dropped, i had an episode of tears rolling down my cheek in JOY. Its like i never expected it! God did it. Draw was 440, CRS was 440, but profile was recreated in Jan 25th, Tie breaking was Jan 31st.

Rich Dad, Poor Dad...
I submitted 2 proofs of POF, 1 gift deed to cover the entire amount from my mum because i had too many transactions in my GTB account, i no get strength to be explaining anything, i just used the deed and the other was a letter from AXA Masard for my money market investment. I submitted both in Naira even though i am UK resident.


Penny Wise, Pounds Foolish...
Remember i said i didn't want to write any explanation regarding POF, well it came back staring at my face when London VO requested for ADR for me to explain why i relied on my mum for POF and why my POF was only in Naira.... Brethren in the Lord, Na so i started writing letter ooo... Also they requested for a UK bank statement showing 6 months salary... I wish i had not added my UK employment cos i already have more than enough work experience from Nigeria and i got the letter in CIC format. Even the UK reference letter was not in CIC but na too many skills dey kill monkey

Tick... Tick... Tick...

If you mean Nahinbdis, he is a close pal that we started the process and have moved closely together. Landed together too.

So it's possible for one to claim 3 years work experience if for example he has 1 year work experience in NOC O and two years work experience in NOC B? Thought the 3 years must be in either NOC O, A or B

He/she is right, it wasn't my business

EyesondPrize:
It is because of the CLB and work experience used.

Blooit004:
Hello guys, can documents downloaded in PDF format, like bank deposit receipts, be uploaded directly while submitting? or must I still print and scan such documents before upload?

codebrew85:

Please find below my PPR gist as promised.

jneo:
Guys, I need some clarification or education as the case may be. We had our medicals late October and submitted our application on Nov 2. We were then informed to come for biometrics early December. Prior to now, I am aware results of medicals usually take maximum of a month to be out. Ours was done in late October but up till now, it's still showing as 'under review ' in our status. Anybody else in this situation? Is this normal? Pls help with any info on this

Adunnee:
@cochtrane please can you provide me with a copy of the letter you received from Axa Mansard for proof of funds? I'm trying to collapse my pof into axa mansard mutual funds.

I have searched for the one you posted but I couldn't find it.

Thank you.

Good day house,

please i need an advice from you all,

i am graduate and years currently working in a Nigeria bank, i want to know if i can apply for the PR because i was told i need to have an Msc, a professional certificate like to be able to enter the pool. i want to know if i can write IELTS and begin the process or wait till i have other qualifications.

Ibadanboy2015:
Good morning all,

Please I am in a dilemma .

I am a guy who immigrated to Canada through Manitoba PNP route; My sister who's a PR in Manitoba actually sponsored me .

After spending a year there , I got a decent job in Nova Scotia and I left for it . I am currently working in Nova Scotia now.

My worry now is that this is going to affect her sponsoring other family members of ours .

I don't want to lose this Job and I don't wanna block other members of the family who want to come to Manitoba through PNP.

This has really given me sleepless nights and unhappy moments. I am sad .

Please elders, what can I do ? What is the way out ?

Thank You.

For your info.

Happy holidays people of God.

Compliments Transformium.

There are a couple of options.

Use the Statement of Account and write a proper LOE to support not getting a Reference letter (what of letter of non bonds redness)

Another option is to transfer the money to you Naija account and invest in treasury bills (include SOA local and foreign and LOE)

I went to Q-life this morning. I was able to get a date that will work for me. It was based on the expiry date on my ITA.

It is true that they are booked till April, but if you go there physically with your ITA, they might be able to get you a date that'll work. They also asked for the IRCC medical form. I heard about it for the first time. I guess I'll go read up page 1 to find out what that is.

Disclosure: One of their Consultant was my classmate in the University, but I don't think that changed anything. They attended to me in a very professional and straightforward way!

okokobiokoman:
please o. my AOR was 20th July and up till now nothing. Background check yet to commence. is this normal??

Heykayxx:
Y'all are right and I was wrong. It seems my head is doing over-floatation . Upon recalculation, my new score with and without Master's are 456 and 416 respectively.
I guess I need to crack the IELTS and then wait till I earn my degree in spring or summer.

Heykayxx:
I hope this puts your doubt to rest. Please see the attached picture.
I have to crack the IELTS though
