So true, you can be asked for updated POF with the way dollar and naira is behaving.

I was asked for mine, and given 30 days to submit, thankfully, it was a salary account, and more money had accrued into it.

Initial POF was the salary account and a FD I had for about two years, I just reprinted the statement and for the FD, it spanned for three years, and got PPR within two weeks.

I know of people that got rejected cos of this reason, CIC Would scrutinize your documents, and asking for updated POF is like the norm, they would even tell you to explain any recent lodgement, and mind you, they can go to any end.

Just be safe, I printed my SOA a day before I left Nigeria, because you never know what you would get at the POE.

Old rule. New rule is cumulative of 6 months.

Afamdi12:
Hi, your response very insightful. please your third paragraph you said u got ppr withing two weeks, how? You didnt stay for a total of 6months bfre getting your ppr as others or u mean two weeks after they asked for updated docs? At what stage did they ask for additional docs please, like how many months into ur submission?

Ehrnie:


No ideas bro...that's why I skipped them. Sowie.

I think you made a mistake in Q1 though...did you mean to say "do I need gift deed"? you surely need PoF for you application.

Afamdi12:
Please how about my family house is in Enugu(two different bank accounts bear the Enugu address) postal address is also Enugu. But then I have been working in Abuja for over 1year and thats the address on my EE application. Is it okay to use the Enugu address for my pcc? Even as I've been living in a different State for more than 6months?

SlowlybtSurely:


No address was written in my PCC.

I came to Canada through the old system, paper based application.

The stages ​of assessment have changed, so you can't compare. The whole application took ten months.

Afamdi12:
Really? The pcc from Nigeria dont have address on it but my friends address is on his pcc from UK and thats the state he works and lives.

Does it matter if the address on ur UK pcc isn't the address u currenty live but your old address maybe family house? Please does anyone know?

Hello Guys,

1. Please how long does it take to submit the application after you've generated your checklist? I have not submitted the first application after I received the ITA.

2. Must my funds be exactly how much I indicated I'd be bringing, can it be less but more than the required amount?

3. Where's the closest court I can get my gift deed signed please? I'm in Lekki.

Ehrnie:


The address on your UK PCC can be either (1) a UK address if you are currently living in the UK (2) a Nigerian address if you are currently living in Nigeria. Summary is that the address on you UK PCC will be the address you CURRENTLY live.

The address on your UK pcc has to be the address you currently live that is why they ask you to submit proof of address when applying for the PCC. You have to be careful to ensure all your documents have the same address. You cannot have an old address on your UK PCC, and then have a new/different address on you Statement of Accounts (for e.g.) That doesn't sound right to me & it may be picked up.

You have to be consistent. Hian!

If you're using WES, I strongly suggest you fax them your certificate, wait for them to let you know it has been sent to osu, visit osu and then have them respond to the email. That's all, you don't even need your transcript.
My husband did his that way and his verification is complete.

Till this moment, the transcript has not been sent. We just wasted 50k on that crappy school.

If you're using IQAS though, you need the transcript. Sorry, I don't have a contact.

WolverineLives:


Hi, please did you send the WES form which was meant to be filled in by the school. How did you handle this?

Please advise.

Hello. Pls I have an issue. My husband was told to pay the fees before we submit which we did. On getting to submit we saw that's when we're to pay . So now we can't submit out E-apr and we have paid already we have receipt what do we do. So upset and unhappy

Ehrnie:


Hi -

Q1) "I have not submitted the 1st application after I received ITA". This isn't very clear bro. Kindly explain. You cannot received ITA until your application is submitted so I'm confused here.
When you get your ITA, you have 90 days to complete the eAPR forms (i.e submit finally). Only after all the online biographical information that has been entered is complete will a “personalized” document checklist be generated by the system. You have to upload all documenst and submit within the 90 days which starts counting from when you received ITA.
Q2) If you realise your funds will be less than what you indicated when you were filling your EE profile, I believe you can edit it but make sure it is not lower than the required amount on the CIC website.
Q3) No idea - but I am assuming Lagos Island maybe your closest (not sure though)

My wife's International Passport still carries her maiden name, are there possible challenges we may have with the application due to different names? So we can do change of name before starting the whole process at all... Thanks

elfmann:

Who did u pay to?

Dammiehar:


That should not be a problem, once you have your marriage certificate with you, that is a proof that you guys are married. All the best.

babesummy:


I believe it is not possible to pay the fee in advance. To whom did you pay this fee? If you indeed have paid online, what kind of card did you use? If it was a credit card, call your credit card provider and get your money refunded.

I paid online to IRCC with my dollar Visa card . IRCC sent a receipt for this. But now nowhere to upload this said receipt and so we can't submit our eapr

Penluv:



Thanks. Yes I was referring to the first submission before getting the personalised checklist. So the 90 days is the required duration to complete everything.
Thanks Ehrine.
