Hello All,

Sorry for this long post. I am willing to check any post with this info so directions are welcome grin

I recently got ITA and I am on the brink of uploading my documents but I am getting different feedback which I know this platform will clarify.

I have attached a screen shot of the documents I need to submote but I will appreciate if someone could clarify.

1. When it says upload passport bio data page with pages with stamps, some say upload all you passport pages. Which is which cos I do not want wahala o

2. When it says police certificate, should I just upload the pink certificate or all the sheets(including the sheet with my thumbprint)?

3. For Marriage certificate, should I also add pictures cos some people say I should...Which way biko?

4. For education, some say add wes, ielts, university certificates, transcripts. Please clarify

5. For employment records, some say I should add payslips, employment letter, reference letter...Please clarify

6. For proof of funds, some say I should add all my bank statements (either money dey or not)...Please assist
1. There is no one size fits all. In my case, I uploaded only my current passport. Then under additional document, I uploaded all old passports with stamps and marking. The first page of my additional document was an loe with a breakdown of all I submitted under that placeholder. I want to believe it would be clear enough for them.

2. I submitted both

3. Why add pics? Sometimes less is better esp when dealing with oyibo. Have they expressed concern about the validity of your marriage? Abi is there some hidden reason which is propelling you to add your pictures? Only you know your situation tho

4. Wes evaluation result, ielts

5. One of my employment reference letter was not in CIC format so I added alot more like employment letter, pay slips et al. My case is not your case so go with your instincts

6. If your bank reference letter is in CIC format, why add statement?
I didn't have that luxury. I only got a generic letter so I added last 6month statement to it.

End of the day, go through CIC completeness check. That is your sure bet. Good luck

@sistaj and others who got this ADR for spouse employment even though information was under personal, what proof do you tender?

Is it their employment letter you tender or the CIC employment reference letter for them?

I went for medicals today, and I was told that my blood pressure is too high (150/100), and as result, the doctor did not continue the medical examination.

Please, I am worried and am on my way to see my doctor... I don't know why my BP is high.. Can I be disqualified for that reason?
Did the Dr just quit your hbp test or all the other tests ceased as well. I'm so confused by this your narrative.

HBP is not grounds for disqualification. Further tests can sometimes be done to confirm function of kidney. Goodluck to you. Remain calm

Several times, you have been advised to go to page 0 for a reason. Please go there and click the links. You even have instance of documents to tender when an employer refuses to give reference letter in CIC format or flat out refuses.

FamilyRe: 'You Are Heartless If You Upload Your Dead Friend Pics To Wish "RIP" - Lady Says by stonecoldcafe: 2:48pm On Jul 09, 2018
A distinguished professor from my university lost his life some years back in a fatal accident.

You need to see how his near naked corpse was displayed on blogs and all. It was soooooooooooooo sad. I'm not even family but seeing that photo like that was terrible. Former students on these blogs were begging for it to be taken off but it was only when his family reached out one or two of such people removed it. The children of the deceased promptly wrote to the blogs requesting for the picture of the corpse to be removed. Only then was it removed. Hmm. That thing ehn, is very bad oh!

Hi guys my gcms notes came through and everything looks good.
However, I noticed when my pof was computed the CAD recorded was less than my actual declared CAD thank God it still met the pof requirement for a family of 1.

I did some computation and it seemed the difference was the RSA amount that I added, it seems CIC nor wan dey gree with RSA again o.
I became even more sure of that when someone in my group chat march aor got his gcms and it was stated that review for pof and he added his pension rsa too.

This may not be true tho but this is what I noticed. On the basis of the computation of my own funds then I can boldly say CIC did not include my RSA funds.
Congrats on your fine looking GCMS notes. I will be 2 months post AOR towards the end of this month, still at IP1 stage. I wanted to wait until i clocked exactly 60 days before ordering my gcms notes but i am getting kind of anxious due to the recent wonderful PPR testimony of 30 something days. I'm trying to remain calm but a voice in my head is asking me to order the notes now. How long did yours take to come out?

I'm usually the calm one but its started doing my head in...

God bless you for the time you took to give me this your robust response...i was trying to consider option 1 because her job pays better so she can stay back with the kids until I settle down and then she can then come and join me with the kids. However, considering the points u mentioned in ur response,i think it is a better idea to just do for the the whole family, and then I can go alone first then she joins me with the kids later....
I think that's the smarter decision... Goodluck

house hope am in order with my plans .
Such messages gladen the heart. It is clear to see people do take the time to read and tow the right path. I'm afraid I can't comment on your ACCA quest cos it confuses the hell out of me.
Someone who is on that path will advice.

Your quest for maxing out your crs point is on point. Scores have not dropped below 440 since the start of the year. Nevertheless, a miracle of back to back draws can change the story

Your wife trying to add a 2nd certification is point on. It's the smart thing for now. Goodluck with the journey ahead

Please go to page 0 of this thread, click on the blue link "The Following People's Timelines Helped in Answering Some Frequently Asked Questions" there you will see names of people who who are self employed and have already gotten their PPR.

Read their testimony but most importantly note how they put together a water tight application concerning their self employed status

Dear all,
please I

option 1...apply for PR as a sole applicant
option 2...apply for PR together with my wife and 2 kids
Abeg Nairaland community....make una advise me
It is your call to make. Some people can manage without their spouse and children while some others would never consider it. No one can advice you on this personal decision.

You should note the current processing time for spouse visa application is a year. Can you be without them for that long?

You should also note that even if a spouse is Unaccompanying, they must do medical and PCC. Unaccompanying children will also do medical. Your proof of funds will cover a family of 4 even if wife and kids are unaccompanying.

So basically, you are only saving processing + permanent residence fee for wife and your 2 kids. Is it really worth it? Only you can tell.

Also think of what your spouse can add to your crs score with her eca and ielts score.

Guys its 3:40 am now. Hubby said he felt somehow and needed to check his email. I told him to sleep. Well, he checked and showed me a PPR mail. 39 days post AOR on the dot. We asked God for 45 days max for processing before we sent our application and he did it in less than that. I couldn't help myself i started laughing and crying at the same time. Surely, there is a God somewhere. Will tell my soon. Let me continue with my worship because i can't sleep again.
It's another one. I wake up to another one. Dear lord thank you

Well we thank God for your ppr news all the same. I think you need a very strong immigration lawyer preferably from the Canadian justice system. Just go there first and plant your feet on the ground. I'm trusting God that you will testify on this same issue someday
