IZANAMI:
Can an affidavit or something similar suffice?

Hello guys. Let me share my timeline.
Wes: evaluation completed on october 2019 and got into the pool the same day
CRS score= 523 (bilingual)
ITA: November 14th 2019
AOR: November 23rd
BIO: 5th December 2019
All stages were passed on March 2020.
Since then, no more news from IRCC due to covid.
I think this situation is becoming unbearable will have to turn the page and forget about this immigration issue. Damn.

abnot:


IRCC's mode of operation makes little consideration for visa applicants (both immigrant and non-immigrant category) and I'll advice that people do what they can to avoid having an expired visa/COPR. Many may mock me for this but the Nigerian Immigration E-visa(tourist, business, spousal) regime is a lot more friendly. This is march 2021 not march 2020 when covid19 shut down the world. I feel for potential immigrants who believed so much in the system, sold their belongings, quit their jobs/shut down their businesses and got stuck in the "unable to travel state". Some were even accompanied to the airport by family/friends only to be denied boarding and have since been stuck spending out of their settlement funds.

In the pool many have gone the extra mile working to earn points but have been excluded from draws with some losing 5 points on their birthdays. Many have also had their applications taking more than a year. Everything blamed on Coivd. Covid only exposed the weaknesses of the system

Yes, you can use your NYSC experience but not your IT as a student. Are you above the age of 30?

I've also been waiting since february 2020. You are not alone. There are whatsapp groups for Ottawa. Those groups have been helpful psychologically ans emotionally. You have the feeling you are not alone. Ne t'inquiète pas. Aie du courage !

My dear friend. We have similar cases o.

My AOR was FEB 17th, 2020. Visa office OTTAWA.

As of June 2020, I received my first GCMS notes. All stages were PASSED. My application was AWAITING APPROVAL.

I applied for another GCMS note in February 2021 and it's still AWAITING APPROVAL.

I don't even know what to do. I strongly believe that if not for COVID we would have received PPR a long time ago.

Let's keep believing.

I saw your post earlier but i dint think I was in the best position to respond but now I think I am.

According to IRCC, it is not compulsory to do Upfront medicals, applicants do Upfront so as to hasten application time. You can submit your application with a proof of no slot available before your application deadline, i believe a mail from IOM will suffice, you can also include a letter of explanation. I suggest you book the nearest date you can get and even pay. Attach the transaction details too under your medical folder and submit your application. You have seen the trend of draw, it will be sad to waste this opportunity.

I dint respond earlier cause I had not gotten a confirmation that this process will Work, but it has worked for me. Got ITA on 25th of November just like you did, got a date with IOM for Dec 17 but my appointment was Canceled. I submitted my application December 11 regardless with a message from IOM canceling my appointment, proof of payment and letter of explanation. I eventually Did my Upfront medicals on Jan 19 and my profile has been updated to medical passed less than 3 weeks after I got s mail from IOM saying my result had been uploaded.

Hi guys,

Been following this thread and you all are super helpful.

I have a question.

I have experience as first a customer service representative for almost 3 years and now sales representative for 3 years and my wife has 9 years working experience with a paramilitary agency. We are considering the pnp and would like to know which NOC we are well suited for. Please kindly help

Jamaticulus:
I kinda disagree. It has been clearly stated here:

https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=394

If your IT was remunerated and you can find an appropriate NOC, it would count.

I just finished creating account with WES and they didn't send my reference no. How long does it take before they send it. Also, I choose Standard in receiving my report. Please. How long does it take for the report to reach Nigeria using standard

Herbesolar:

My VO is OTTAWA. They have been answering to emails with generic response. Ottawa has been silent since more than 6 months now.
