Yes O! I was just looking for trouble. Ifeoma77 can never be unlikeable.

ladymarshall:
Haha!! I like you too. But how can you like cola without coca? One came before the other. You must like both at the same time or the taste won't be the same na. Besides aunty Ify is our thread mama, she must be liked at all times, every other like na addition

Please it's okay. Let us forgive, forget and move on.

Suspectzero:
Lol i just have to laugh at this comment. Calling me a typical Nigerian.

Am i the typical Nigerian that lacked the basic research skills to find out about the genuity of an official government program without resorting to a local forum full of anecdotal stories?

So because i don't wish to criticize people for the length of their PPR story, i should bar myself from asking any questions? I love your logic here.

Nobody owes you anything here. Stop crying about people's choices. And stop projecting ill will onto others. You are imagining things. Paranoia is not good.

Hahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhaha Calm down @ Joo2018, someone canor play with you, is that how you use to do....

@Topsmamen... This table you are shaking!

Well, Thanos ( Ifeoma77's) best friend is just an Agbaya! Within 15 mins of the end game Thor cut of his head with an axe

SPOILER ALERT!!!

Topsmamen:
Guys, it's okay to make our points known but it's equally important to know that opinions shouldn't be forced as everyone has different levels of perception. We should also understand that our opinions are as important as that of the other person, none is more important than the other.

There's no right or wrong here. So please, let's chill and enjoy what's left of the time we have. We won't all be here forever. Group hug people!

Ehen @Ifeoma77 and @ladymarshall. Come and help me with this puzzle i've been racking my brain in trying to solve jare.

Who's stronger between Thanos and the Night King? The former cannot do without the infinity stones and the latter is powerless under hot sun.

Chai, I like this lady... I use to like Ifeoma77's before, now it's @Ladymarshall lolz

ladymarshall:
I wanted to say BULL... but I take it back, this is a peaceful thread and we don't want controversy. I respect your opinion sincerely but
?

And yes, there are other sources of information but I can tell you having researched EE from different sources, that with the exception of CIC website in terms of authoritativeness, this thread provides one of the most diverse, indepth and accurate information on EE than any other source (part 1-7). And indepth PPR scripts contribute to that information. Infact one of the most unique benefits of this thread that you would not find on any other platform, is not the hard information, it is the feelings, struggles, fears, determination and victories of successful applicants like you and me which serve as inspiration and motivation and nothing captures this better than indepth PPR scripts. If indeed you want to show gratitude, help, motivate, inspire, encourage and uplift others after you, it is your public service responsibility to this thread to share your PPR story indepth. No one is forcing you, it's your choice as Ifeoma said. But if your heart moves you to share, please kindly do it indepth.

Congratulations @Yuyukoko, your best days have just begun. This calls for celebration.

Yuyukoko:
I'm just here struggling not to cry in a management meeting. The mail just dropped. PPR is here fam... It's been a long haul but it's here finally...

Give it your best shot - in compiling docx and proof of funds, don't lose sight of the goal, ask for help, clarifications, look for answers, admit when you are weak especially when the 6 months timeline elapses, joke around it, but wait for it. It's gon come!

Here we come Canny... Tra-la-la-la.

Lolz, sorry about the heat, but why don't you guys try getting a solar inverter, it is not as expensive as people think.

Anyways to your questions, you will have to read page 1, all the information you need for this process is stated there, thanks to all the seniors. I will just chip in one or two things since I am awake too.

This is my personal opinion. On the one hand, your husband's occupation is listed among the approved NOC for express entry program, however age will not give you guys maximum points even if he has 2 or more certificate.

On the other hand, you seem to have a better chance because age is on your side, however your BSc alone will not also give you very high points.

You need to research this thread for courses you can do to give you two or more certificates within the next one year as this will boost your point. Your husband will also need to do IELTS and ECA so he can contribute to increase your points.

For the reference letter, it should not be a problem, so many people have gotten their PPR and they were self employed. You can search the thread for information on this too.

Another area you may need to consider is the PNP. Saskatchewan has listed "Bakers" as one of the in demand occupations. You may need to explore this route really fast as changes can be made at any time.

SINP will give you an extra 600 points, so U don't need to get any extra degree or masters, you may not need to bother the Man of God to do IELTS and even if you don't do very well in your IELTS ( just try not to get less than 6 in any of the sections), you will still be fine.

I will advise you start the process "yesterday" if you have the conviction to proceed.

This is just my advice, I guess the seniors may have one or two things to say.

etyno:
Hello beautiful people, pls I need help o
Someone should intervene in my matter o
Pls
This is 12:01am, I can't sleep, no light, I am currently using hand fan to fan the kids cos they are seriously sweating
The heat is so much these days and Use of generator has its limits in my house, and this has been the norm in my house for months now. I just pity my little baby Each time I do this, i just ask my self if this is the best I can give myself and my family.
It will end in priase sha.

Henhen, I am a professional baker and I have been baking part time since 2007 and full time from 2013. Thats when I opened my cake studio. I have 2staffs and about 5apprentice.
I want to apply for the express entry (been a ghost reader for some months now, been trying to make up my mind)

Which route is better for me? Federal skilled trade program or federal skilled worker?
What are the pros and cons of each route?
Whatever route is decided, when I want to write my work reference letter, who will write it? Considering that I am the owner of the business?

Pls dont ignore this message biko
This is a destiny decision for me o.
I am ready to register for IELTS, so you guys are gonna be seeing me here often. I will not let you guys go until I get PPR o.
I just need all the necessary information and I won't be a burden as I am not lazy to read. Family of 5, am married and intend to be the primary applicant. Am 31 while hubby is 42. I have only Bsc and a vocational certificate. Hubby has 2or more certificates in Engineering but has only worked in a religious organization as a clergy.
What are our chances?

Oh! I guess this is a very recent information, because previously WES insisted on un scratched cards. Thanks for the info



You can send the paper waec card bought online. They will not reject it.There is a form from WES for WAEC where you need to fill the scratch pin and number so it is not mandatory that you buy scratched card. This information is clearly stated on their website

You can send it yourself by courier. I helped a friend send his own scratch card and WES received it. However, you may need to contact WES and inform them that the scratch card was sent with the WAEC documents and then chill for their response. It is highly unlikely that they will not see a document that was sent to them.

NB: I hope you sent an unscratched card? If you sent that paper for checking result that WAEC sells for 700/800 Naira, they will reject it. It must be a proper scratch card with the unscratched silver covering.[/quote]

Yes, definitely! All things being equal, the BSc should come out as 4 years bachelors degree while CIPM will be 3 years bachelor's degree. When filling the express entry form he / she is qualified to choose 2 or more degrees. The CRS will reflect both degrees.

Adunnee:
Thanks. Does it mean it can be combined with B.Sc. to give 2 or more certificates?

A colleague of mine got hers as 3 years bachelor's degree. However, I heard you need to write all 3 stages of the exam. I don't think those that got exemption on the first or / and second stage will be assessed as 3 years bachelor's degree by WES

Adunnee:
Please what's the equivalent of CIPM, if evaluated by WES?

Osessage:
Good afternoon everyone. I sent my WAEC documents including my scratch card from yaba office. Now WES updated my status and said my scratch card was not accepted. Please does anyone know if I can send the scratch card myself or WAEC office still has to send it. Thanks

Call the customer care, they will direct you on how to fix this if this affects you. If you still can't do it then, I may be able to guide U. Mine was hacked, but I bye-passed the hackers... This is rubbish, if people want to test their hacking skills, they should go and flex muscle with Google or Cipher and stop bothering the common man! Rubbish!

No comment!!!

You are still asking. You with the x-rated moniker.

Testimony time, blessing time... Guys IELTS has landed, I was expecting more especially with my speaking but I m grateful... Finally about to jump into the pool with 459... Lemme go and bring out my bikini... � LRWS - 8.5, 9,7,7..

I guess it's BC. If so, it usually happens most of the time. It will be out before today ends or at worst before 6pm tomorrow.

Smmiles:
Hello, please I took the IELTS test on 6th April and I’m trying to check my result but it’s saying result not found. Does that mean the result isn’t out or?

You can courier it if you don't live in Lagos. I suggest you use UPS if you want to use courier. However, you will get an update faster if you submit directly to BC office in Ikoyi.

dedalove:
Hello house please I want to know if I have to take my IELTs TRF physically to the BC office for a remark as I just got it delivered to me yesterday. Thanks

Congratulations! Nice one

I had to come back to my first PPR journey family to share this and to use the opportunity to thank the amazing, selfless human that is NewMum. Even after completing the journey and through the process of settling down in Canada she still finds time to check up on me and my application. She never stopped prophesying good news even until last week and now see what God did �

LONG VERSION

BEFORE 2018 - BACKGROUND
I was your average, not-very-passionate, but quietly loyal Nigerian. All I wanted to do was make it here and go for holidays abroad. As my friends were jetting out one by one, I watched with a weird mixture of envy and disdain.



I have a dream that all of our hopes and dreams about Canada will come true.

Congratulations!!! We await the full gist oooo

Nice one! Ibadan is really opening up.

MOD IDP IELTS now in IBADAN and BENIN.

Maybe BC will calm down a little now. Their shakara is becoming too much.

pyruvateluv:
Great news
CBT now in Abuja and Ibadan

Lawd!!! Have Mercy.

ladymarshall:
First of all, congratulations! It has ended in praise!!!!

Bhet why??

So you haven't been active? That is minus 3

But despite your inactivity, you still sneak in and read through the long long essays, scripts, answers, comments, links, very good, you get 1 mark for your silent participation.

Now even after benefiting from all the information, you then decided to give back with a script of just 3 lines without timelines Why That is minus 16

But thank you for your prayers, for that you get 2 marks.

As an example to others who might contemplate submitting this type of script, I take the two marks back and minus 1 from it

Total: -19/10

Congrats again and all the best in Canada.

LMAO.... This is one of the most interesting PPR gist I have ever read on this thread. congratulations @ Selzsky... Your best days have just begun. Wish you success all the way!!!

@ Ifeoma77 and @ Topsmamen "U see ursefs" @estrange come and see something!

Selzsky:
A very Loooong Post Alert!!!!! It’s not a “cherekambia” kind of read. It’s a settle down, AC/fan on, leg on da stool, wine in the glass by the side- kind of read. . Even with all my research and reading on this thread, I still was asking questions during my application ‘cos I didn’t want any of all those stories that touch. Na around this time I con dey find @Ifeoma77 and Tojued. Recognizing them as people wey sabi...loooolllll. Dem no even answer person sef. Although that time @ Ifeoma77 was busy flirting with Topsmamen on the thread (IfyBekee, don’

Noted. Thanks, I appreciate.

joo2018:
It can follow the normal bank reference letter format.

Okay. Thanks for this @ Yakay...

Yakay:
Yes you can use co-operative savings account, a friend used her hubby's co-operative account as part of their POF, he got a reference letter from them, she has COPR now.

Thank you for your prompt @ Topsmamen. I had actually done a random search before calling for assistance. I saw various chats, but nothing solid. Someone mentioned that he / she has used cooperative as POF but wasn't detailed in the explanation.

Thanks anyway.." U are far too kind"

Topsmamen:
Go to the Search bar of this thread and type "cooperative society pof". You'll get a 1-page search result that will give you as much info as you need.

Hello E-Fam,

Please I will like to inquire about using savings from Cooperative Society as POF. I think I have read something about that on this thread before, but I can't figure out where and when it was stated. I would like to know the format of the letter if this can be used.

I'll appreciate anyone’s contributions regarding this please.

Thanks

@Ifeoma77... This your female dancers are not "born again" at all o. Let me not talk yet... Lol
