Travel / Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 8 by Banlabsdee: 4:32pm On May 25, 2019 |
Raconteur14: It's been a long while I have been here. Decided to share my PPR story even though I didn't get it through express entry.
May 2017- Wrote IELTS for the first time and passed. (Just expired last week).
July 2017 - Got the result of my ECA assessment from WES.
July 2017 - Dived into the pool with a total score of 466.
August 2 2017 - Got an ITA as lowest CRS was 441.
August 9 2017- CRS was 433.
After due consultation on this forum, I realised I had wrongly put a certification that I had not assessed with my ECA. I was advised to remove the certification and revert to my 433 scores since it would be sufficient to get an ITA since the last draw on August 9 was 433.
August 23 2017- CRS was 434
September 6 2017- CRS was 435
September 14 2017- Celebrated my birthday and lost 6 points. My CRS dropped to 427
September 20 2017 - CRS was 433.
The rest as they say is history. CRS never dropped again to levels achieved in 2017.
I was sad, cursed my luck and was unhappy. I continued with my masters program in Unilag, hoping to finish by the end of 2018 so that I could get the extra 40 marks for masters. As I type this, while I am done with my course work, I'm yet to defend my project, talk less of results or certificate.
January 2019 - I got married to my girlfriend who was a PR.
January 2019 - I got a new job.
February 27 2019 - Submitted my sponsorship application (Average time of processing is one year)
March 2019- I did my biometrics.
May 16 2019- I got an e-mail that I was eligible for pre-arrival services.
May 16 2019- I got another e-mail to go and do my medicals. I was so excited about this that I was bubbling up and down. People usually do medicals 6 months or more after the application has been submitted.
May 16 2019- I got yet another e-mail from Accra Immigration notifying me that my Visa was ready. So is my COPR. I had just gotten the PPR email. I was behind myself with so much joy and I still can't believe it. But God did it.
I share this to encourage someone. Be patient, keep at it and God would bring your own testimony for you.
I couldn't keep up with the thread from Part 3 because my situation wasn't changing. I am pretty sure that people we started together then are well settled in Canada now. But I am just so glad that God showed up for me this way. It's only him!
