[b]“The only thing better than a PPR is another PPR”
-Aristotle 388BCE

MissCee:
Hello house,

I have been through the thread but i couldnt really find answers. I have don my IELTS, with 8 in each compnent, I am 23 years with 2 years experience and a bachelor's degree. My projected CRS is 412, what can i do to boost my score please? I do not have a job offer or family member who is a PR or citizen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

DboyizGood:
Some should clear my doubts abeg.

I intend to apply for EOR in speaking and writing.

I understand EOR is 15k. But I need clarification as to whether this payment will vary since I am want remark for Speaking and writing. Will that amount to me paying 30k for both them?

Thanks

cochtrane:

Your 15k should take care of both speaking and writing.

DboyizGood:
Thanks alot for the tip. Will work on that.

My result LRWS...8.5, 9, 7, 7 but I know I did better than getting a 7 in writing and speaking.

The plan of having an EOR is to see if my scores can improve so I can get maximum points. I just started evaluation with WES to.

I thought of applying for an EOR while working on my evaluation with WES.

I have 4yrs work experience too and possible crs score is 435. But with recent fluctuations in cut offs I might have to wait too long in the pool.

The experienced members here should please advise me on this.

a little help, people...

a friend would like to apply, but she is separated from her husband and would prefer not to involve him in her app for obvious reasons (baba fit spoli ground by not providing her the docs she needs).

1. can she apply without mentioning him at all?

2. if she declares that she is married but husband is not coming, does she need to supply any info about him?

cochtrane:

Actually, depends. Is it "divorce" or "never married"? If it's "Divorce/Separated", I guess she has to mention him, except she likes to get a ban for misrepresentation.


Yes, she'd need to supply info about him and also get him to do medicals.

cochtrane:

Your results are actually pretty decent and you could get ITA sometime this year with 435. However, if you wanna do EOR, you should know you can't use the IELTS results until it's sorted.

Guys, kindly help clarify.

I got a new passport before submitting my application post ITA because the old one had about 5 months to expire and i did not want to go through passport wahala later since i was getting for my kids at that time...and you know naija passport and paper or laminate scarcity could hit at anytime.

Question:

Do i need to notify CIC about the new passport considering the one i submitted application with is different from the one i used Pre ITA.

Experienced inputs would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

balogunsam:


Wow....this has been a long time coming.

1. Yes you can but another thing most folks recommend or have tried is having your spouse send the funds to your account and he writes a letter that its for the immigration program you both are running.

2. A deed of gift is usually a document raised by the giver of funds to support your immigration. Say your mum or friend or father or sibling is sponsoring or financing your immigration, he/she sends the money to your account and then raises a deed of gift which is simply a letter stating the funds is a gift not expected to be returned or repaid. There are samples on page zero and if you don't get, you can send me a PM or use the mail address in my signature so i can send you a draft.

3. Medicals, POF, reference letters or proof of employment, passport photos, passport scan etc. I don't remember others.


For the bolded, are you sure ECA can be ready within te 90 days alloted for application to be submited after ITA?


I Wish you the best.

GlitteringStar:



1. You can scan and upload the issued visas and stamped travel pages for the current passport only. Try to merge the bio-data page (this will be the first page) and stamped pages into a single PDF file.

2. Some do fill the form upfront while others don't. It all depends on you.



* Declare the visa refusal.

Good morning.

I did a holding over last year at law firm but was being paid in cash(that's what happens in most cases in the firms in my city). This therefore means I don't have bank statements related to salary. I want to use the one year as a work experience because it was. Is an employment contract and a reference from my former employer enough to prove the working experience or I must accompany it with a bank Statement?

Option B, should I just be patient and do another one year before doing an EE since the current job which i started this month pays direct to my account.
