Hello All,

Well done for the good work going on here.

Please, does anyone have info on cheap hospitals for delivery in California and also possible doctors and their contact?

Thank you.

Hi Toy002

I had the same experience and tried all the suggested methods, but in futility. What I found online and worked for me was to change the settings on my Chrome internet browser. Click on Settings >>>> Advanced >>>> Content Settings >>>> PDF Documents. At PDF Documents, enable the 'Download PDF files instead of automatically opening them' button. Go back to click on the Canada ADR link again, this time it will download the file and you can open from your download folder, the content should be visible then.

Let me know if this works for you.

PS. There may be variations in how the words are described on your own browser, but use the closest.

All the best!

I tried this just now and it didn't work too.

Thanks for your help.

Hi congratulations in advance. Am 80% certain that it's a bio data request which means ppr is next . If you try to open it tomorrow and it doesn't work, you should raise a cse and call cic. They would resend the document again.

Amen and Thank you.

I will raise CSE and send them a mail today.

Yewwygraceful:
Toy002, it might be a ppr mail, why do you think it is an adr? Someone reported the same thing and had to get someone to help her open it. Guess what, it was ppr.
What is your AOR?

I wish.

My AOR is July 21.

The additional request document changed to we need additional document to continue processing of your application and the message says: Request Letter.

I'm so anxious and curious but I will ask someone else to try opening for me.

Thank you.

optionese:
Someone suggested using Microsoft edge web browser. Did you move to IP2? I think it may be a mail for biodata page. Someone had same issue. Let's know if it works

I tried this now too but it didn't work still. I will send a mail and keep trying all means to open it.

Thanks.

Upgrade the version of your pdf

Done, not opening still.

GlitteringStar:
You got ADR, logged in to your account, downloaded the PDF file and couldn't open. Am I right? Are you using a laptop or phone? Can you post a screenshot of the error message here?


You can read this post too-----https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/acrobat/kb/cant-view-pdf-web.html

I have tried everything, nothing seems to work. tried both on my laptop and on my phone. The error message is invalid or corrupt or damaged pdf file. I don't know how to attach screenshots here.

GlitteringStar:
You can follow the steps below:

* Right-click the link.
* Select “Save target as” or “Save link as”.
* Choose the location on your computer where you would like to save the file.
* Select “Save”.
* Use Windows Explorer to get to the location where you saved the file.
* Right click on the PDF file and select “Open with”.
* Select “Choose program”
* Select “Adobe Acrobat Reader”.
* Select “OK”.

OR

You can try to use a different web browser (Internet Explorer/Mozilla Firefox/Google Chrome) if the above doesn't work.

I have tried these options now, same error message.

GlitteringStar:
Are you using the latest version of Adobe Reader? If not, try to update it.

Yes, it is the latest version of adobe reader.

HELLO HOUSE,

Congrats @Tttollu and @XX01.

Congrats to all PPR recipients- ymummy234,remyxcj,triv... the good news is encouraging. I wish everyone of us @ different stages Godspeed.

Thanks for the good work you guys are doing here.

I have a small question please. I evaluated my OND and Bsc with WES and the summary reads "Canadian equivalency: Diploma (2 years) and Bachelors (4 years)". This OND I obtained before my BSc.

I have gone through this thread and especially through cochtrane's summaries (God bless for the wonderful work). I saw some previous people who also had OND before Bsc and it was evaluated the same. Also, I have learnt HND and OND is observed by WES to be 2 or more years. Even though the OND is obtained before the HND.

Now, here's my question: is it okay to use this to claim "two or more certificates"? According to the CIC website, I think they were talking about Post-graduate diploma, as opposed to OND. Yet on this site I saw a few posts where some people said they used it, I.e. OND before BSc and OND before HND.

Can anyone please clarify?

Hello, I actually don't know the right answer to your question but I just want to share a colleague's situation.

She submitted her application using BSc & ICAN as two or more certificates cos her ICAN was evaluated as 2yrs diploma.

Her application went through to the last stage (IP2) but was rejected on the basis that the two years diploma for ICAN does not qualify for two or more certificate option she selected in her application and that after taking the points for that out of her CRS score, it no longer meets the score of the draw she got ITA with.

My advise for you is that if your BSc only will fetch you a CRS score high enough for ITA, you can go ahead with either BSc or 2certs option. So even if your point is dropped for 2 certs, you will still be in good standing with your ITA draw score.

Wish you all the best in this canny journey.

Wura27:
Thanks to all you lovely people for the congratulatory messages, I know we will all testify soonest whether it's awaiting IELTS, awaiting AOR or PPR.

To all those worried about their submitted application or anything, don't worry and just leave all to God. I thought my application was messy and I scaled through with no ADR, nothing!

1. A bulk of my money entered my account after I got my ITA but I did not do gift deed or write any letter explaining the source of funds (timeline btw my ITA and AOR was about 3 weeks)
2. I only put the first page of each of my 6 month statement leaving all other pages behind (I did not quickly realize I could reduce it)
3. I did not write any LOE, did not attach any additional document or justify anything at all
4. My name is sometimes scattered. Like I'm known by d 2nd name in my passport so some of my documents only had my 2nd name and surname without the first name on my passport (I was advised to get an affidavit justifying this but I never did)
5. Although I had a valid US visa as at the time I applied, I was rejected about 7 years ago and I forgot to state it in my application.
6. I was in UK on vacation when I did and got my UK PC, I was later told that I should have done it after leaving the country and to urgently raise CSE which I never did
7. Plenty other things I thought were issues but can't state all now.

This is for those that have submitted and are worried about one thing or the other.

If you haven't submitted, PLEASE DON'T BE LIKE ME! I don't know why I was so stubborn, it wud save you a whole lot of worry knowing your application is detailed when it's in progress!

In my excitement I forgot to write my timeline.

Type of Applicant: Single Applicant
ITA: May 4
AOR: May 26
Medicals passed: July 1
IP1: July 1
NA1: July 5
NA2: August 2
PPR: August 5

Congrats to all my PPRpeople, passport stamped peeps and a big future congrats to all my peeps waiting to testify- WE SHALL ALL TESTIFY!

Wow...Congrats once again.

studyexec:
Congrats Wura, Blingyrie, freeradical and others with PPRs.
Wish you the very best!

Good news everywhere....Congrats to everyone that got PPR. I'm glad for you all and honestly I just can't wait to get the mail too even though I just started all over recently. Wish you guys all the best and God's favor. Wish the rest of us same as well.

MummyJaygirls:
This is what my profile looks like now, thanks my e fam for all d support. One Love

Oya o, I get household items for sale, pm me for details

Congrats.

Remxyj:
@deeore I really don't know what stage I am. All I saw was a mail yesterday telling me to pay for my RPRF in 7days. But my BG is in N/A and have not really been lucky tracking if it has ever changed to to progress to determine wheather nah Ip1 I dey or 2.
The mail also states that the eligibility and admissibility review (security, criminality, and or medicals) is currently in professs; you will be contacted if additional document is required for this purpose.
Hope you make something out of this....

If BG is showing NA, I guess that should be NA2. IP1 is usually same day with or few days after med passed, few people have also confirmed IP1 status before med passed.. And after IP1 is NA2, then IP2. NA2 -IP2 can take between 3 weeks to 6 weeks or more. Disclaimer: I got all this info on this thread, not like its my personal timeline. Seniors/others can advise further. Wish us all speedy processing.

Dear E-family, finally received the much awaited PPR!

I can't explain my joy.
It has been a very long journey. Entered the pool January 2016 with crs of 432(I think) and got Ontario nomination and accepted because the draw score was quite high then. We submitted Ontario application January our application was finally approved December 2016(one full year). We got ITA December and submitted our application January 2017. AOR 20th January. Got ADR February, submitted and since then status has been not applicable. Ordered GCMS and realized our application was been processed in London. When we completed six months we sent a mail( thanks to greetings for the sample), we got another ADR. This time requesting for military records because my husband mistakenly ticked yes to that NYSC related question. Thanks to ugoiyke79e who responded to someone who also had same issue, we submitted copies of nysc discharge certificate, nysc call up letter and a letter of recommendation from one of officer in charge of the military school (because he served as a teacher in the military school) and a LOE explaining our mistake and stating he didn't serve in military. After submitting, we sent another mail telling them we have submitted the documents they requested for and this afternoon, my husband got a mail for him to check his box and behold, PPR.
I thank God it all ended in praise.
This thread has been so informative and I thank everyone for their contributions. It is very very important to read as you will get answers even before you ask.

Like to acknowledge some people for their good work here. JesusDway, duppysho,vcole,zandora, 40manlappy, boldinc, ehrnie, mummyjaygirls(funny woman) and all others too numerous to mention. God bless you all.

PS. The PPR mail didn't indicate where to send passports to, is it strictly Accra? Am I to print the imm form and send alongside the passports?

Congrats. Wish you and your family the best in Canada.

House,you all can jubilate with me ... just got the golden mail...PPR ...aor 24 January 2017 ...family of four.PNP Outland.

***UPDATE***

Just Checked my CIC account now and guess what i saw?? Yes, absolutely Nothing!!!

Day 83 and these a**holes haven't done sh*t. NA2 since 1999. Now preparing for life in 9ja fully.

Winter has truly come, everything is frozen including my application. Rotten VOs, I hate Canada more than the Nigerian Politicians. If you're a VO and you're seeing this, Eat a big bowl of Sh*t, you gobshite.

Happy August in advance fellas.

Calm down, you will get PPR in good time. Prayer, Patience & Perseverance = PPR. Remember, positive vibes only.

yokus:
Thank you @MummyJaygirls.

@Deeore should be able to help, you can call them to enquire on +1 (613) 944-4000
Also if u can get another money to pay pending when u r refunded, it won't be a bad option

Hello Yokus,

My previous application was cancelled on the 1st of July and i got my refund on the 15th of July. My advise is that you gather funds to pay for your new application if you are yet to receive your refund but you will definitely get the funds back.

Ehrnie:
Final Status Update.

Hi e-Fam – I received my PP today with the Canadian stamp on it & all associated travel documents enclosed. It’s just beginning to sink in, lol

I know I’m expected to ‘graduate” to our senior thread on Nairaland i.e. “Living in Canada” ….so with time, I’ll gradually wean myself off this thread.

Thank God for the months gone by...and thanks to y’all for your help + contributions.

Gracias.

Congrats Ehrnie. Wish you the best in Canada.

Wow! Good news and joyous celebration everywhere. Congrats to All PPR's. I'm too happy for you all, at least a sigh of relief from all the anxiety. Congrats y'all & congrats to @deeore too on MP. Wish you and everyone of us God speed in this hustle.

Congrats @ happylassy, Moatte & Ehrnie. Wish you guys safe landing.� @deeore, have you gotten your refund? I got mine on Friday.

deeore:
hi @Toy002...i had to make another payment o as i read somewhere that it would take about 7weeks before refund occurs. So i went ahead to pay another fee. Aor is 5th of july.

quote author=Toy002 post=58188842]Hello house,

@deeore, please did you have to make a new payment entirely for the new application or is there anyway that the previous payment receipt could be used for the new application and if not, do you know how to request for a refund if payment was not done using credit card? Please anyone can respond if you know how it's done. Thanks.

Okay, thanks.

Thanks for the link. I have created a new profile and submitted a CSE on the cancelled application. I also sent follow up mails as suggested. Thanks a lot.

deeore:
Hello house @Ajujuju i would just up my pof like u suggested.. @Mummyjaymama congrats sweetie,few hurdles left to cross...
@jobmman @Toy002 sorry about the cancellation, i know exactly how you feel as i have been there too but dont give up... Create a new profile and if your score is good,you would be back at AOR status before you know it...dont beat yourself up too much... Let go of the what if and Let God take control...Goodluck starting over...

Thanks, I have done that. Awaiting ITA now.

jobmman:
Our PR application was also canceled due to incomplete document. We didn't upload our degree statement of result or certificate. It's really sad.
Profile is FSW inland
AOR April 29th
App canceled June 26th.

It is well

So sorry about that, I have similar issue. You should create a new profile ASAP. I have done that too.

A14:
Sorry about this. Like others have said I too would advise you reapply and maybe raise a CSE by the side. What's your CRS score?

Yes, I will do that. Thank you.
AOR - May 26
CSE - June 03
CRS - 469

Bimpsy99:
So sorry about this. I would suggest you do both.. Appeal using the evidence of previous CSE raised and follow up email sent.

On the other hand, please create another profile. Pleasd what's your CRS and AOR date?

Thanks a lot, I will just reapply.
AOR - May 26
CSE - June 03
CRS - 469

40manlappy:
Sorry about that. You can try to raise a CSE on the cancellation explaining that you had raised a CSE initially when you realized the error. Meanwhile, it's also a good idea to create a new profile immediately as a backup.

Hopefully, your application may be reopened. Try to also follow up with emails to the following addresses. Separate emails would be better especially if you don't know where your application was processed. I have also included their phone number for someone calling from overseas. All the best!

CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca

CIO-Sydney-search-enquiry@cic.gc.ca

+1 613-944-4000

Thanks so much for your advice.

I will create a new profile to reapply and will also send a mail regarding the cancelled application. My fear however is that if it is reopened, wont it affect the new application I want to submit.
