Good day elders and happy Sunday from here. I want to ask about child benefits for my two kids. When and how can I apply? We arrived Canada November 2023, but someone is saying we can't apply until after 18 months. I need advice on this from senior Canadians. Thanks. |

Hello house, I need a little guidance regarding the PR application; my partner is about to enter the PR pool soon while we are planning our wedding later this year; how best should we approach this since we are not married yet? Should I be included in the application from the beginning or be attached after my partner gets an invitation to apply? Thanks. |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by MayorOfEdmonton: 12:44am On Feb 07 |
Until you are married, he/she can’t add you. After ‘partner’ gets invited & submits a complete application, you’d have to be legally married 1st before she can add you. Some folks do just court wedding first to collect certificate and add their spouse, then plan naija big wedding later. JapaPrince: |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by JapaPrince: 1:16am On Feb 07 |
MayorOfEdmonton:thank you. I appreciate it. |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by GraciousWords: 2:22am On Feb 07 |
JapaPrince: If her PR is via Express Entry then ask her to study page 1 of the EE part 11 thread, link here: https://www.nairaland.com/6829885/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled#107239666 Depending on the impact of marriage on her CRS, the best option may be to marry and add you AFTER she has has submitted her PR application (i.e. after AOR) not after she gets invited (i.e. ITA): https://www.nairaland.com/6081746/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/588#102548277 If her PR is not via Express Entry then ignore everything I just wrote please. |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by JapaPrince: 3:01pm On Feb 07 |
GraciousWords:Thank you Can we apply for EE, PNP and occupation based entries, all at the same time ? |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by GraciousWords: 4:32pm On Feb 07 |
JapaPrince: short answer: EE is the "umbrella" under which EE PNPs and CBDs happen. There are other non EE PNPs (FAQ 8 on the page 1 link below). long answer: please study the page 1 link provided, all aspects of EE are explained fully https://www.nairaland.com/6829885/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled#107239666 Best! 1 Like |

Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by njambert: 5:46pm On Feb 07 |
I thought it was always better for one to add spouse into the pool pre-ITA? What's the logic behind adding after AOR being better? Do the dynamics change if the said person is *already* married and previously stated that the spouse is non-accompanying when they created the EE profile? GraciousWords: |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by GraciousWords: 6:47pm On Feb 07 |
njambert: It's explained in detail here: https://www.nairaland.com/6081746/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/588#102548277 but to put it another way: The aim is to get your PR application approved, which starts with getting as high a CRS as possible, in order to get ITA. Typically, one's CRS will likely be lower with spouse accompanying than spouse unaccompanying, in the same vein, the CRS will likely be lower when married than when single....it's just the maths behind the CRS calculator. There might be instances where this doesn't hold, I guess. If married, one way to increase CRS in desperate times is to make spouse unaccompanying (people with struggling CRS scores do this routinely). If single, one way to increase CRS is to remain single IRCC already told us that the only scenario in which your CRS will not be recalculated as a single applicant is when you marry and add spouse after you already submitted your app (no be say you don already marry before, com lie say na after AOR you marry o). So if you plan to get married, getting married post AOR and adding spouse post AOR is the optimal choice (Canada immigration wise). Pre and post ITA marriages are sub-optimal (CRS will be recalculated).....unless of course the person has a PNP nomination in which case CRS is through the roof and they can do anyhow. If one is already married, then obviously you must always indicate that you are married (pre, post ITA etc) and you must add your spouse (either as accompanying (affects CRS) or not accompanying (does not affect CRS, CRS calculation is done as if you were single)) to your profile and application pre, post and in-between all stages. We should take this to EE thread though and leave Living in Canada for mild winter convo meanwhile you no need this info again nau..... 4 Likes

ednut1: Generally, why do Western leaders, especially the left-leaning ones, love Ukraine so much? The FTA is pointless between both countries and even between Ukraine and the US. Good it was voted down. A country at war has no use signing an FTA of any kind. |
