Bubblefairy:
So, WES decided to burst my bubble and fall my hand, faxing my ND and HND Statement of Result to WES was the first thing I did after payment. My status was updated 'we received your documents bla bla bla', numerous emails and two months of inactivity later, I got an update that WES has ACCEPTED my documents save for my statement of Result which has not been RECEIVED. so status was put on hold oh.

Okay, no problem, sent another fax immediately and after about 24hours, my timeline was updated as 'we received your documents bla bla bla' again. Fast forward to 35 days of back and forth emails I got another update that all documents has been accepted except my ND and HND Statement of Result which has not been received.
I don't understand again ohh, please someone should help me out.
I personally faxed Hubby's certificate to WES myself and we are waiting for verification from his school, I don't understand what is going wrong. This matter Don tire me ohh.

LOGAN TI O DE!!!!!

Decision to travel 2017, my husband (PA) wrote IELTS in 2017 and had 6.5 in listening didn't really know much about express entry then he got a job in the UK and we exed Canada and focused on UK. UK now came with their wahala and increased the salary scale for sponsorship and the company couldn't afford the new salary scale, so we exed the whole process and continued with our lives.

CONGRATS MA. I NEED TO KNOW IF MY WIFE NEEDS TO DO WES AND IELTS B4 I ENTER EXPRESS ENTRY POOL OR I SHOLUD JUST BE D ONLY ONE TO DO DAT

Later in the year, I told my husband to let's continue with this our Canada runs o, then I found this thread and started reading from part 1 and registered in part 3. Then in 2018, IELTS struggle began. He wrote IELTS 6 times and even missed an exam because we applied for UK visa and passport wasn't ready before the exam. We called and mailed British Council, but they were not able to help. Chai 68k just like that.

ECA: this was pretty straightforward for us because we evaluated our UK masters degree with WES and it was ready within one month

IELTS: My husband wrote the exam 6 times. We remarked some (BC and Mod) and it came back unchanged. Even though I didn't write, my husband practised with different videos on YouTube and some materials on British Council website few days to the exam.

POF: hmmmm, all I can say is that God showed up. POF was fixed deposit certificate only from first bank. We supported it with screenshot of the exchange rate using XE and we added a summary table of our pof.
No letter in CIC format, no statement of account, no letter of indebtedness, just the fixed deposit certificate.
I was also worried because our fixed deposit was for one year(November) and our medicals expires October 2019 and there was a huge discussion regarding this, but God came through. This pof Ehn, almost every time I want to make payment, mall or delivery, I mostly say pof instead of pos

WORK REFERENCE:this was also straightforward. Reference letter(to whom) in CIC format, ID, 6months payslip
NB: my husband resigned December 2018, so we raised CSE. He resumed with another company in April but we didn't notify cic.

BIOMETRICS: biometrics was after 32days and we completed it January 3. The server was down and we spent almost 3 hours. Only for me to check our profile and realised that my name was misspelt (village people), so I raised CSE and it was corrected after 3wks or so

PCC: my husbands colleague linked us with one inspector like that (a lady). I told my husband that we should use inspector Moshood o, he didn't answer. OK, ask for the price at least we'll know how much to budget before we get there, Oga no answer and I kept quiet. Na so this inspector bill us 15k(7500 each) after we finished. She sha collected 14k. I was so pained.

Our UK PCC was very straightforward. My husband schooled in Scotland, we used same UK PCC for Scotland placeholder.

MEDICALS: we used children practice, everything went well. God bless the guy that swapped dates with me. God bless you real good. (was scared because I felt my blood sample was darker than others ). This journey can make you think plenty things.

We were trusting and praying that our PPR comes in 60days (January) because we didn't want to pay rent in March, pof will reduce but will still be above the required amount. But God's time is always the best. We moved our pof from first bank to arm (no cse raised) because interest made more sense and we can always withdraw the interest at will.

Also, my location on Facebook was UK, I had to edit it. My business page (justwigsng) on instagram can also be linked to my personal page, had to edit it because I didn't mention it (even though I wasn't the PA). Was just trying to be safe.

The waiting is really a test of patience, especially when you can do nothing about it. I checked our profile everyday
Raised CSE weekly when we hit 4 months.
There was even a time they responded that our file has been transferred to Nova Scotia. Called them the following day (9/4/2019) and was told it's still in Ottawa and criminality, background checks and eligibility in progress, security not started.

We raised another CSE and was told eligibility hasn't begun , same thing we were told when we called. CSE can confuse with their responses sha.

POST 6 MONTHS
Anyways sha, we decided to mail Ralph but we got an automated response. An idea struck and we decided to mail another MP, we mailed Ziad Aboultaif and Randy Boissonnault MPs for Edmonton (since we're settling there) and Ziad replied that our file is in for final review, while Randy replied that he'll contact ircc and get back to us. So, I think other MPs can also help with the status of our application, please let's wait till after 6months o.

We sha called them again after we got ghost update and we were told that criminality and eligibility passed while security is yet to start (I doubted it sha ). I was so excited because eligibility is one of the biggest hurdles of this process. The agent also told us if we don't get an update on or before June 15, he'll send a reminder mail to the case officer Abi analyst de ni . We got another ghost update yesterday evening and woke up to the mail this morning. I can't explain the feeling.

5. Searched for jobs, updated our CV to Canadian standard
6. Decided on banks to use, phone network

I'm dedicating this PPR to God and our friend who was also on this journey but lost his life in a ghastly motor accident. He died on the spot, the day his IELTS result was released (October 12) and he was yet to check the result.

Thank God for his sufficient grace. We're moving to Edmonton, Alberta.
