Hi Guys,

Thank you so much for sharing your PR entry. I just got my IELTS result L 8.5, R 7.5, W 7 and S 7.5. Using the CRS calculator, I got a score of 475. Please is this a good enough score for me to receive ITA?

Thank you

yup

Emmaesty:
Good morning everyone,

I am about to create my express entry profile but I have an issue with the work history section.

I changed roles in my previous organisation but it is within the same NOC. I only spent about 6 months in one of the roles. Can I fill my experience like this :

Jan 2015 - June 2015 GE Officer..... ABC Plc
Sept 2012 - Dec 2014 XE Officer...... ABC Plc

Or should I use one role to claim the total years I spent in that organisation.

Also, I recently resumed in a new organisation roughly 3 months ago. Should I also include the experience? It is the same NOC.

Please help

fill what you did as above. Using one noc when you did multiple nocs there is misrepresentation and fraud na. Fill the 3 months too as you need to have 3 years to get maximum points

Any one??

Hello Guys, Good afternoon.

Someone advised me to try express entry based on my work experience and skill, although i am processing student visa...

Would a student visa ruin the chances of express entry, If the Answer is No,

I would appreciate you guys if i could get a head start on what i would need to begin the process..

I have over 5years experience in management position (Managerial jobs)

i also have the skill of building projects with aluminum doors and window, i am also a graduate in business management, still under the age 32years.

Please guys, what is the first step i need to take if i wish to pursue an express entry..Thank you and i look forward to helping others as i learn from the guru here....

Pls I need advice.

I applied for Canada study visa last year which was later refused. In the work experience section of the study application, I declared only 3 recent work experiences
Company A: Aug 2020 till date
Company B(Npower): Aug 2018- July 2020
Company C(NYSC): April 2016-April 2017.

While working at company B (I go once a week because of distance and cost). I was also working simultaneously at another company (real estate company) which I didn't declare. I've started my express entry journey, and I would like to use the work experience gained in the real estate company. Will there be a problem if I do this?

Note, I can't get ref letter for the nysc and Npower work experience because of distance.

There won’t be a problem, express entry is different from study visa/application . Just go ahead with you application and back it up with prayer.

Ok, so, I think I should gist you all...
Key points mainly, so it is not too lengthy!
I paid for my WES evaluation Feb 2020.
Evaluation wasn't ready until Oct 2020 due to back and forth for my Poly, I did two degrees.
I wrote IELTS in Nov and result was out in Dec 2020.
I created an express entry profile and received ITA within 3 days for FSW.
I submitted my application and received AOR Feb 5th, 2021.
There was a deafening silence that I had to come to this Nairaland community for solace.
Mind you, I've been running all my package solo through personal study and research.
I realised some things might have been easier if I were here earlier, but we move.
The encouragement from here and people having similar long wait kept my sanity together.
Requested for GCMS notes in Feb 2022 and received an ADR by Feb 24.
I quickly got the PCC, schedule A and medical done within a week.
After waiting for almost two months after documents have been received, I requested for another GCMS notes, so, it won't look like I didnt do anything.
PPR came in the next day! April 26
Apparently, both GCMS notes were needless!
I'm sure you know the joy that comes with PPR, right?
Dropped off my passport the next day with DHL.
Used VFS lagos because I felt I wasn't in a haste to travel.
I felt I needed the time to look for job and make all my plannings.
I changed my location on LinkedIn to Toronto and applied for a job I saw on glassdoor.
In two weeks, I was poached by 4 recruiters.
Thanks to the Canadian number I got using dingtone which I learnt about on this platform.
Phone call was always their first point of contact.
One of the recruiters terminated the process because I told him I was currently in Nigeria and he needed someone urgently.
I had series of interviews with the other 3 companies.
I received a rejection mail from the company I applied directly to from glassdoor.
Two weeks ago, I got an offer from one of the company, 113k per annum.
I withdrew my application for one of the company which was not in Ontario.
Last week, I received a 2nd offer which I had to decline. 96k per annum.
My flight is booked, my passport came back yesterday, 15th June.
Funny enough, I didn't receive any more message from any recruiter apart from those 4.

Why this long story?
Delay isn’t denial!
God's timing is usually the best!
Do not lose hope!
Yes, you can get that dream job of yours!
You don't have to do a menial job first.
You can get a good job from here.

Please, keep hope alive....
One love ❤
Peace

Congratulations!!!!! Your story is so inspiring. Please do you work in tech? You got a job really fast.

I sent my Passport a day before yours to VFS Lagos and I haven’t received it yet. Can you share your COPR timelines?

Ade, Ade, Ade, how many times did I call you........

If you decide to claim WE points for the real estate company, then make sure you include a sound LOE explaining why it was not in your study visa application. IRCC will likely (I'm sure there is always an exception.....that VO that couldn't be bothered to check) cross check what you provided in your study application with what is in your EE application. In all our interactions with IRCC, whether visitor, work, study, EE etc our UCI never changes for a reason, to make it easy for IRCC to look at all the data you have ever given them, GCMS record no dey lie.

Ideally, all your info should be in sync, if there is a reason why they are not, then explain in an LOE. Read this person's experience:

https://www.nairaland.com/6081746/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/165#95624682

See wetin VO tell the guy:

<sub>Specifically, In your current application you declared that you had worked as Territory Pre-Sales Manager for company A Ltd from February 2016 to August 2017. You also provided a Confirmation of Employment Letter from the Human Capital Manager of Coy A, dated August 06 2019, which indicated that you had worked Territory Pre-Sales Manager Coy A Nigeria Ltd from February 2016 to August 2017.

However, in your temporary resident visa applications, S******* (submitted August 01, 2016) and S******(submitted March 09, 2017), you indicated that you were employed during that same period as a Procurement Officer for company B from February 2016. Given these discrepancies, I am concerned that you have not provided a truthful description of your employment activities between 2016 and 2017.</sub>

I'm a project engineer with 6+ years experience in a multinational.
One thing I know gave me an edge is that these recruiters thought I was working with the branch of my company in Toronto. They found out the true picture during my first discussion with them where I try as much as possible to wow them.

Hi future Canadian neighbours, I really need your opinions. My spouse just got his study permit application approved. He is supposed to start studies in September. I also received an NOI from Ontario and already submitted my application a month ago. I am not sure when I will get nomination. My question is since PR is our main goal (he applied for his visa at that time because we weren't sure I would get a NOI ), should I encourage him to wait patiently till I get the PPR and save the school fees money for something else ? Please note that his school is in Nova Scotia and if I receive nomination and eventually PPR we need to stay in Ontario till Citizenship as per my understanding. What do you guys think?

ednut1:
u say wetin They cross check information submitted earlier. Application will be refused

He will be fine, he just needs to explain the reason why he didn’t include it in the initial application.

Please how did your school send your transcript to Wes , is it through mail or postal order?

Good day everyone, I would like to ask; does one’s class of grade affect WES evaluation, let’s for example ; one graduated with a third class, does the person still stand a chance for consideration in express entry pool. Thanks in anticipation as I await replies.
