Hello house,

please i need guidance on my PR path, i recently entered the pool and my score is 404 which i think something is wrong cos a friend of mine with similar qualification has 465.
I am 27 years old
I have 5 years working experience
I have both BSC and ATS result which qualifies as 4 years and 1 year education in Canada.
The only difference with my friend is IELTS, she has 8 in Listening, 8 in Reading, 7 in Writing and 7 in speaking with an overall of 7.5
while i have 8 in Listening, 7.5 in Reading, 6.5 in Writing and 7 in Speaking with an overall of 7.5
I am thinking the issue is my IELTS result

Can anyone shed light as to why we have a different score in the pool even though we have similar credentials and experience

And what can i do to boost my score.

Thanks

Hello House.
Happy Sunday!
I recently came across the information about new expression of interest system for AAIP that is coming up on 30th of Sept, 2024.
I have already stated my interest to Alberta via EEP for PNP since last year but no feedback yet.
Please what do they mean by "As a result of this new system, AAIP will not proceed with the remaining monthly application acceptance dates for 2024 as the new system will allow for ongoing intake of expression of interest"
Do I need to delete my old profile and create a new or what?
Please what do they mean?
Thanks.

Hi Tessy.

The tailor profession can be found under the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST) Express Entry route.

The NOC Code for "Tailor" is: Teer 4
NOC 64200 as seen in the image below.

One of the requirements for this route is to show your qualifying certificate that you obtained in the course of your skill acquisition.

Begin your research here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/skilled-trades.html

Cheers.

Hi,
you can apply as a fashion designer instead of "tailor" in express entry. It is TEER 3 while tailor is TEER 4. just search for the fashion designer noc (53123)and apply.

1. Ircc officials are probably aware of bank policies in the UK. Your statement of account plus the letter you got are sufficient to show proof of funds. For mine, I submitted only online bank statements and I wrote a letter of explanation that I was unable to get the other required documents from the bank. Had no issue getting my PR approved.

2. It's important your reference letter carries your job descriptions. Like someone advised above, get a colleague to write the description and attach their ID card. You might need to write a letter to explain why you are submitting two reference letters for that NOC. Best of luck to you.

Greetings,
Kindly assist with clarification on the below language requirements. My sister obtained B2, C1, B2 and C1 in reading, listening, writing and speaking respectively in the TEF exam. she got 6.5, 6.0, 4.5 and 6.5 for speaking, listening, reading and writing respectively in ielts. Does the ielts qualify to be used as second language?
From ircc website, I extracted the below screenshot. Please elders in the house, kindly clarify. thanks.

To apply for permanent residency through Express Entry, you need to have a minimum language proficiency of CLB 7 (the Canadian Language Benchmarks), which is a minimum of 6.0 for each section of the IELTS.

Hello everyone , please I am trying to understand how express entry works ? I have read through the website but I need more information. What’s the difference between express entry and provincial nominee program ?

What are the requirements please ? What’s the best pathway for someone in Uk with Masters ? And someone with visit visa does it affect the application process and can the visit visa still be used ?

Maria96:


Express entry is now very competitive as they are piking those with high scores ( those who have French TEF) and people of certain occupations. Province nomination give you extra points to get invited. But you must meet the requirements of the province ( you need to read their websites to see if you qualify for any, some are based on have family members in that province, specific occupation etc) .

Some UK people with care experience were picked this year from the pool. Uk masters does not give you any edge as its same points with Nigerian masters. Read more, also visit YouTube.

Hello house,

If on my birth certificate, my middle name is Oghenetejiri but on all of my other documents such as international passport and Degree certificate my middle name appears as Tejiri, what kind of affidavit do l need to submit as part of my application after ITA? Also, do l need to notarize the affidavit?

meljoe:
Okay thank you , I don’t qualify for the family members in province and also no care experience but admin in healthcare , so is it a good idea to start the process ?

Maria96:
has the occupation been chosen in recent times Is it in any province occupation list. To be honest express entry is now 50:50

I am aware of this but my question is if she can used the ielts as a second language to boost her scores since her TEF exceeds the first language requirement. From the screenshot, the minimum score level is stated for second language. I just needed to be sure. Thanks

ITS PR!

I am a very silent reader.

Family of 4.

My First IELTS was in 2020, i had a retake in 2022.

PNP nomination Dec 2022 - SASKATCHWAN

ITA DEC 2022.

AOR - Feb, 2022

Long silence, work took to me Mogadishu, Somalia at some point, i guess that was the reason why my security clearance took time.

We had medicals twice.

To the glory of God, 2nd August 2024, i saw a notification of Final decision, but there was no further comment to clarify it.

I put a call thru to IRCC immediately, it was a Naija(Titi) who took the call.

The IRCC agent was so soothing in her words, she tactically told me everything was fine, i should be expecting the Passports submission letter.

Aunty Titi of IRCC call center God bless you for your kind words that night.

The mail came in 4th of August, got every necessary details and moved our passports to Nairobi the following day (No time)

IRCC Nairobi stamped our passports same day VFS delivered to them as if they were waiting for us.

Passports with Visas got back 19th of August.

We are looking for flights now as we want to get in before the full blown winter.

Please if you have accommodation connect in Saskatoon kindly get in touch (this is highly needed now)

Thanks everyone for your update, especially the guide on the use of Nairobi VFS, i got all the details here.

God bless and grant all our desires here.

My brothers, my Sisters, PLEASE DO NOT GIVE UP!!!
