PCC for Ghana. On cic website, it was stated that they would first request for it (although i was only aware of this after they asked for it...either that or i completely forgot that i should be expecting a request because i started the process, but later stopped midway).

Advice to others post ITA, tripple check all your uploads are complete and correct. Thats the number one reason for rejection. There was a case recently of someone rejected that uploaded the same reference letter from one company twice rather than two different reference letters.

Really?
I worked in a company and was promoted to a different job title (fairly higher position), but with same NOC. EE profile requires that I separate the jobs. My plan was to get 1 letter stating the different positions and timelines. With the above case, does that mean I have to get separate reference letters for each period?

I have read on canadavisa forum that you can get one letter for all the periods you worked in a company. I also read on CIC that your reference letter should include all positions held in the company and dates.

www cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp#document_checklist

".......The following documents are mandatory for each work experience declared:

a reference or experience letter from the employer, which
- should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
- [b]should indicate all positions held while employed at the company [/b]and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits; and


Seniors, please advise on the this issue.

Wow! That's practically 4 months. Congrats!

Hi - I think the example is for a different scenario. Perhaps the applicant had worked for two different companies (under the same NOC) and was going to claim points for both...& then mistakenly uploaded one reference instead of two.

You are right - one letter will suffice for your own circumstance.

His own case was two different companies. Just an upload error.

So it was not caught until the fourth month when the detailed screening started.

I believe you are fine with one letter that indicates all positions.

For wifey, when creating her profile, we filled her current job position. After ITA, she had been promoted to another role (same NOC), and thats what the reference letter carried.

After uploading all docs, the place holder showed reference letter for the former role. We just raised a CSE with an LOE that the company only lists current role.

Hi - are you using the CRS tool on the CIC website? If so, I don't see anywhere that asks for number of family members if you ticked "single" for your marital status. Anyways, family doesn't refer to the number of brothers or sisters you've got, but to spouse + children. I believe that's what that question means.

Please I need urgent help.

Aor March 31St
Medical passed June 1St.

Our background check has been on NA until I checked today and saw we are processing your background check so am hoping that is IP2.

If that is IP2 am also hoping ppr will be coming soon by God's grace

My issue now is that I am travelling to the US this weekend for the birth of our baby and won't be back to Nigeria until ending of August..my husband will also be in SA for work till first week in August.
I have read that time limit to send passport is 15days but we both won't be In the country.

If ppr comes this week or next can we both risk sending our passport from different countries hoping we get it back before we need it to leave where we are.

If that is too risky please what do you advise as I won't be able to send the passport till two months after the passport request.

Will definitely be back to share my ppr time line once we get it.

Gurus in the house please help.

@happymumtobe - I'm not a guru, but I will try to answer this.

I believe this is a situation change (even though it is a temporary one). You will have to notify IRCC of this change by filling the CSE form (the link is available on your AoR letter). Note that your AoR letter states that you should specifically let them know if your [b]mailing address [/b]changes. I'll suggest you do this asap after landing in USA this weekend because looking at your timeline + status change, I think you are very close to COPR...and I don't think it will be wise sending the CSE when they have already requested for your passport.

I just read on another forum that you MAY be able to ask IRCC for an extension for your passport submission.

Please hold on for others to chip in before you decide on what to do.

Wishing you a safe delivery

Congrats to everyone that has got PPR and medical passed and IELTS aced.

in anticipation for the PPR, please I have a couple of questions for the ppl that hav got their PPR.
Medical passed on May 25th
Additional Doc required - Schedule A - May 25th
Submitted -" May 30th

So my questions are:

Was there any notification for IP1 and IP2. or does that just happen on your profile and you have to check to see it?

What address in Ghana do u send the passports to when u get PPR, I didn't see any address on the PPR letter ppl hav shared.

How much did it cost to send the passports to Ghana via DHL.

What do they mean by "the passport photos should be stamped".? I had the name and address of the photo studio I used written at the back of the passport photo but there is no stamp.

Pls advice. will appreciate a quick response considering one has just 15 days to submit. so we can be prepared for it. Thanks.

Goodday people, great one going on here.

I sent my BSC and a Diploma (Abridged Airframe & Power Plant) obtained from the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology Zaria to IQAS for the ECA. they assessed my BSC and didnt do d diploma. I sent them a mail to complain that the skool(NCAT) is like some named institutions in canada and the course must have been accredited by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) whose head office is in Montreal, and this is was i was told;


Thank you for your inquiry regarding the International Qualifications Assessment Service (IQAS) Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) assessment outcome.

Your Diploma Abridged Airframe and Powerplant was excluded from assessment as while the awarding institution meets IQAS’s recognition requirements, the specific program does not.

Should you wish to initiate a review of your assessment outcome, please send to the IQAS office a signed request either via Fax or postal mail (a simple message similar to your email will be sufficient). Please also ensure to include any supporting evidence to substantiate your request. If you are planning to send the request by Fax, please ensure you use the applicable prefix; IQAS Fax numbers is 1-780-427-2655.

Please what shld my next line of action be becos I really need the points.

This is the same situation with my husband's. UNILAG has confirmed 2ce that they've sent the verification email but WES insists that they've not received it. He has sent emails, tweets and even engaged them on the phone and they insist on it. This is so confusing.

Hello house please i need an argent response. please can someone be rejected for uploading *photocopy* of degree certificate with color copy of degree transcript in his AOR??

40manlappy:


Just imagine!

I had a similar experience. I was told that I failed a course when I applied for my Transcript. This was after I had collected my Degree Certificate.

It took me almost 6 months to sort it out with the school.

Crap!!!!

I think yes. The documents requested is to ur degree certificate not transcript. Did you upload a photocopy of your certificate? If yes you still have time to raise a CSE to scan the original

Ajujuju2:


Hello bro, please confirm that d document is in bakck n white. The scan i received just looks like photocpoy to me. Lol. Though the sender assures me that its a couloured scan she did.

Just call the sender back and confirm if the logo and signature are colored or not.
If colored, u need to ask for a colored scan..

If anyone else on this forum have an idea about this pls let's have your input.

From this current timeline, you can work towards doing it next month.
You don't need fingerprints for UK PCC

Goodluck!

Guys I was reading on canadavisa forum that during medicals the doctors asked a 4yr old some questions and the child dint respond and it prolonged the medicals of the family as IRCC requested for subsequent evaluations for the child.

Am asking because my 3 year old is quite timid, she won't talk to someone she doesn't rily know except she's in a very jovial mood. Ve bin trying to get her out of her shell against our upcoming medicals but my madam can't just be bothered

Pls those that have done medicals for their kids of around age 3/4yrs old what was the experience like.what is expected of the kids?

Please don't worry yourself. A timid/shy child is not an offence. Perhaps the doctors notice some medical challenges
