Test after interview Its rare sha..

damkollins:
[b]Like you have been advised,you need to be careful with this option of common law union because of the less importance attached to it in the African perspective .
It's a common practice with the Europeans and Americans but for us,its new.
You should be ready to provide all necessary evidence and documents to support your common law union especially to the Accra visa office.
A simpler way to go by it is for you to submit your application as a since status person now so that time will not delay you.After submission of your application package,commence plan for your court marriage or wedding as soon as possible.
This can be done with little or no cash.......under 50k.......get a witness for you and spouse to be and get your legalized court marriage certificate.
Once you get your PERS after your cc or DD has been charged or encashed ,wait for about one month for your file to be transfered to Accra and contact them for update of your status .
Tell them you are now married and present all evidence they ask from you nd request your spouse to be added to your application .....this will be done effortlessly.
Personally ,i won't advice you to go for common law union option as you spend eternity trying to proof your point.
Cheers[/b].

lomy: Hello everyone..Finally went for my interview in Accra last week with my family. After the interview I was told they will get back to me although they are still with my documents for more investigation.. Am kinda scared!! Is dis a sign of refusal?

okejji: since I am married and i have my marriage certificate in church and in court. what I understand my ur statement about common-law is that both partner has not being officially joined together by the registry or church. since I have being joined in the church officially, is it neccessary to fill this common law form?

damkollins:
If you are legally married with a court married certificate ,you do not need to include common law union forms.
I guess you have been stressing yourself unnecessarily all these while.
Your legalized marriage certificate is more than enough proof of your wedding or marriage.
I hope I'm right to assume you have marriage certificate obtained in the court of law.
Cheers.

Benedictegbon:

Hello house. I'm planning for my wedding at the registry. Hope this will be okay, as I hear of a marriage certificate from a court?

AceOak: Thanks damkollins, saw your mail. Quick question will birth attestation from NPC suffice as a birth certificate for i and my spouse? Am in the process of getting one, if not should i just go and get a sworn affidavit?

kart042000: I just successfully submitted my application. My questions are;
1. After submission, and the money is been charged from ones account, what next?
2. With the sluggish way Ghana cic is handling this thing, hope the slots would not get filled up from other countries before they begin to screen fsw 2014/2015 batch.
3. What do you mean by PER, PCC etc
4. My career category is fast filling up , it took me so much time, energy, and finance to come thus far, Make these ghanians CO better speed up d pace.

[b]Congrats on your submission .
1.You will receive a Positive Eligibility Review email from CIC informing you that you have successfully met the instructions set by Minister of citizenship,Immigration and multiculturalism ....................This will be done after your cc or DD has been charged or encashed.
2.You have to pray and hope your slot is preserved for you.
3.PER is explained in point 1 already,PCC is police clearance certificate obtained in Alagbon for Nigerian applicant .....may be submitted at the application stage or left until Accra request it.
4.Once CIC in Canada screens you to be succcessful ,Accra's sluggishness can not rub you off your space....they will onlyntake their time to issue you PR ..
On a lighter note,take your mind off it and lI've your life to the fullest as you may not hear any response till the latter part of the year.
Also.......if you can afford it.......go and change your name to PATIENCE .........as you will need it alot in the coming months.
Cheers[/b].

princecharles28: Hello All,

I have just submitted my application to CIC a few days ago but I just realised I made a grave error! I didn't attach my degree certificate to the ECA report from ICAS. I'm thinking of sending CIC an email to notify them and request for any assistance on how I can add it to my file. Please any advice?

damkollins:
1.MBA WES report is okay for now...make sure you include photocopy of the degree certificates with your application package as a proof...you may include your Bsc too.
2.Just you and your dependants...i.e Spouse,Biological and adopted children.If you are unmarried....ONLY YOU.
3.Its okay.No duration is recommended at this submission stage but best practice it btw 3 to 6 months....not compulsory.
Cheers.
