jayifeanyi1234: Except things have changed, in 2019 I was able to register my 2 children in school with visiting visa. All that was required was my documentation as their mother ( I was a graduate student then on study permit). I took them to the school board covering my community and they were given letter to the school close to my address. And that was all. No issues till we got PR. |

Dear All, Please at what point is profile locked from expiring? Is it at ITA or AOR? I asked this question on the express entry thread and got 2 opposing answers, so please for those who have gone through the process, which is it? Thank you |

Pls can someone who is coming into Canada on study permit start a business..like the way we do in Nigeria,rent a store and start a business. Also what type of apartment fits someone who is coming with kids.. Thank you 2 Likes |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by GraciousWords: 1:44pm On May 13, 2022 |
ciwi: Profiles expire after 1 year in the pool. If you get ITA before the 1 year mark and accept it, then you leave the pool and no longer have a profile, instead what you have is the beginning of an application. If you decline your ITA, you return back to the pool. If you do nothing, your profile is removed from the pool at expiry of the ITA. Pls read page 1 of the express entry thread where this is explained in detail with links to the relevant IRCC webpage https://www.nairaland.com/6829885/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled#107239717 For details about when your actual details e.g. CRS, age, IELTS are locked (at ITA or AOR) read FAQ 27, 28 and 29 of page 1 of the Express Entry thread where it is explained in detail, again with links to the relevant IRCC webpage. All the best! 3 Likes |

Papapa1234: Students can rent a store and start a business. Just be careful and clear on what you need to convert that study permit into PR. Most pathways demand work experience, and some pathways blacklist self employment. |

I may have to rephrase.. I do not intend to work for 20 hours talk more of working extra.. I am asking that,is it compulsory to do the 20 hour work?.. if I don't work while schooling.. are there consequences? My program comes with a coop and I am aware that I have to work with my coop But for the 20 hour work..must I work while schooling? ednut1: 1 Like |

Abeg, I need some clarification on a few things. I moved to Canada recently from the US, but I have employment history in Nigeria. When Canadian employers use third parties like Certn to conduct employment checks, do they contact our employers in Nigeria? I'm going through a background check right now which includes employment checks. My experience is a little overstated and I'm worried the employment check will reveal this. Should I be worried? As far as I can read from the website, they say they will contact the HR of the company. |
