I wish I have enough to say to this my God. It's been him through this journey. His praise will never seize from my mouth

It's PPR

24th August, 2017, ITA

PPR - 8th March, 2018.

My special thanks goes to 40manlappy and to every other person who politely attended to my questions without sarcasm and verbal attack.

4Barr:



I have a friend that was exactly in your shoes. She got married after her hubby got COPR and her own application was on-going too. They notified CIC and they merged their application, requested for the hubby's COPR and re-issued a new COPR to the two of them. This however depends on the stage you are in your own application as she was already on IP2 so the process was faster.

dtush:
I dont even know where to start to show my appreciation to my creator.

That is how i woke up 4am jejely to read. Just had an itch to check my email. There it was lying since 3:02pm yday, a mail to check my account.

Lo and behold, it was PPR. didnt believe it at first, call a friend who has received PPR to help me confirm.

Aig84:
Congratulations to all that got desired scores in IELTS, and to all those that didn't, please don't give up. I know it sounds cliche but this race is really not the swift and there is no need to rush.

Everybody with their own timeline....for example, I wrote and cleared IELTS sometime in September last year at first try, was already in the pool in October, but age and just Bsc as my qualifications have left my CRS to low 400s. Many people have written multiple times after that and some have PPR already.

No PNP opportunity was forthcoming that time so I have to wait for that, now see how Ontario is doing kalo kalo with EOIs, in addition to that I also lose 5 points this month as I become a year older.

So please my brothers and sisters, take your application serious, do what you have to do to get the highest possible scores and submit a clean application void of errors and one corner tactics, no matter how long it takes. Canada is not running away

It will end in praise. Cheers!!

Praise the Lord, deliverance has finally come from London. Its PPR.

AOR - July 20th 2017
Med Pass/IP1- July 28th 2017
NA2 - July 29th
File transfer to London - September 20th 2017

Thought of a lot of things but I am speechless just grateful to God that the ordeal is over.

To my people (too many wonderful people to start calling out names) in the July AOR London Whatsapp group, you are the best. We did a lot of consolation and outbursts at London VO . I pray that very soon, the name will be changed to Landing in Canada cause no one will be left out in the PPR rain this month.

Whew, finally made it to Part 3 of the thread.

Dear Nairaland family,
Silent reader in the house, I just thought to share my story as I have been so inspired by the posts on this forum. My Canadian journey started in 2015 when I wanted to further my education, 3 times my study permit was declined because of the most ridiculous reasons. I started pursing express entry actively in 2016, wrote IELTS 4 times, has great scores but my writing kept reading 6.5. After my 4th attempt, I requested for a remark in which my writing score was reviewed to a 7, with that, I was able to secure ITA.
Below is my timeline
ITA 7th August
AOR 24th August
Medicals passed 3rd September
IP 1 3rd September
Na2. 9th September
Adr 6th December
Ip2 6th December
Adr submitted 14th December
PPR 12th January.
Family of 4.

My application was not perfect but God covered it, I used a fixed deposit and I applied as a business owner (partnership to be precise). I had to show proof of business with proof of work done, receipts, pictures and written notes from clients, I turned in our company account bank statement as well. The Adr was for me to provide tax clearance certificates for the companies. This is just to say, self employed have no issues with express entry as long as you can prove the legitimacy of your business.
It's been a long and excruciating journey but God gave me the grace to sail through with losing my elements, I am extremely grateful to the Almighty God.
Never give up on your dreams, with God all things are possible and he makes all things beautiful in his time. Thank you all for the information freely shared on this forum, may God reward you all with your hearts desire.

Ok, so DHL runs concluded (I can’t afford to wait so I can pay another armed robber salary school fees)

Hmm....where do I start from? I will indeed give God the praise because it could only have been Him. My loooong timeline is below:

IELTS - 07 Jan, 2017 (9,8,8.5,7.5)
1st ECA - WES (still uncompleted as I speak as that institution formerly known as Ogun State University refused to send transcript)
2nd ECA - IQAS; received 26 Mar, 2017 (Resorted to IQAS as we were not aware we could request WES to exclude the BSC from OSU so sent UK Master’s only to IQAS)
1st EE Profile - 27 Mar, 2017
2nd EE Profile - 12 Apr, 2017 (recreated to attract Ontario NOIs which were being released that week. Ontario had requested that we should recreate our profiles)
Ontario NOI received - 12 Apr, 2017
Application submitted - 14 Apr, 2017
Nomination - 09 May, 2017
ITA - 17 May, 2017
AOR - 01 Jun, 2017
ADR 1 (travel history) - 09 Aug, 2017
IP1 - 09 Aug, 2017
ADR 2 (spouse UK PCC) - 16 Aug, 2017
Medicals Passed/NA2 - 17 Aug, 2017
No additional docs/FTD (I assume) - 24 Sept, 2017
IP2 - 19 Dec, 2017
PPR - 28 Dec, 2017



For my LVO family, please don’t despair as it will all end in praise. To those starting out, ask God for patience, lest you develop high blood pressure Let’s all remember that the race is not to the swift, neither is the battle to the strong, it’s all about time & chance and most of all, His grace!

This forum has been a wonderful companion through this journey. It’s been amazing to see the testimonies, the camaraderie as well as the digs . The testimony that stands out for me is Deeore’s. I remember when she posted her rejection, how she was encouraged and how she dusted herself up and reapplied. And God did it! As He has completed the work for those of us who received PPRs, so shall He do for those still awaiting IELTS, ECA, ITA and even POF completion in Jesus’ name.

miliicarter:
Thank you all for the great feedback. I got my passport request today. I was able to reach the bank, they were able to help spool the statement and provide reference letter within two days. I am really grateful to God and the awesome people around me. Thank you so much

bbaby84:
Thank you everybody I'm so overwhelmed with the messages. Thank you so much! I imagined how I would feel on this day.... I'm so overwhelmed that it seems like I'm not as happy as everyone is for me.

Our application:
Hubby is the PA but still I handled everything from WES to POF.
I had a bout of insomnia at some point ( thanks to FBI as I submitted one set of fingerprints.) Thanks to @yokus for helping me stay sane lol
I used the LOE to list and explain all we had submitted. I submitted xe pages to convert our POF and lock it down. I submitted pictures of my sibling and I at different points of our lives ( I claimed points for Canadian sibling) including specified documents (mortgage bills, driver's license, passport, marriage certificate etc)

When we finally submitted we were asked for travel history for hubby and resident permit for the years he lived in the UK. (This shook me as hubby had 5-6 years in the UK where he had no resident permit) We explained the issues with home office on a letter and the issues he had with his Uni and fees etc and he still had to finish his school since he had eventually sorted out school fees but Home Office still refused to renew the visa. After his studies he came home. I scanned and uploaded previous permits, school ID and fees receipt for his MSC. We told the truth (long and short).
Then I found out we had been transferred to London, I thought 'oh boy!'

When I got the message to check the CIC account today, I thought what do they want now? Alas! It was PPR.

I wish everyone the best on this journey.
@40manlappy @blackbuddy @yokus and everyone that helped me along the way, I am so grateful...
Thank you.

ugoiyke79e:

topebamidele:
Got to work to find the PPR mail sitting pretty in my email!!

I am FSW-Inland, but I only stumbled on this page after my submission, so I had some doubts. That was the same way I only stumbled on the student visa page in 2015 after I had submitted and was looking for CVAC address, but God somehow perfected everything then and now. My applications have always been far from perfect, but the information I read here mentally helped me to understand the various stages involved and the timeline. Thank you to everyone. My timeline is below

AOR: Oct 26
MP: Oct 28
IP1: Oct 30 (I initially thought this was 1P2, the BG message looked like the same with IP2, figured that's how it is for FSW-Inland)
NA2: Nov 3
IP2: Nov 11
PPR: Nov 16 (21 days in total)!

May favor shine on the path of all those expecting good news from IRCC.

P.S: I currently reside in Canada while my wife is Naija. I think its going to be stressful if she has to send me her passport before we can mail it to Ottawa. Any suggestions on what I can possibly do without troubling CIC lol.

yokus:

Ajujuju2 - you be Prophetess? You tagged me n Golden mail fell on me. Lol- it is my brother's app that is in LVO.
