Entry requirement:

Your UCI number (the 8 or 10 digit number that’s assigned to individuals by IRCC): Please note that every participant must have this number on hand before being admitted into the session. If you are unable to locate this number, kindly let us know ahead of time.

Is this UCI different from the one generated after submission of EXPRESS entry profile?

Hello, please for those that used Nysc as their work experience, how did your statement of account reflect a 12 months pay since the first pay we receive in camp is in cash? @glitteringstar thanks.

I submitted the bank statement like that since payslips/bank statement and co are all optional documents.

Is it the statement of account for only the period you served?

Yes.

Just received my GCMS note, almost 200 pages. What am I supposed to look out for in it?

The second page is one of the most important, what does the entries say?
Do you have redactions? Part of a page or full page or more? If there are redaction, under what sections? I mean, S15(1)a, 16, 13 and so on?
Check under activities section, how many data entries do you have?

While the case analyst summary(found towards the end of the doc) can give you a fair idea of what is happening in your notes, the main information you are to look for is within the doc itself.

Anyway, don't stress, don't fret, the Eagle would land soon in sha Allah.

I'm not sure how this is done...I hand this over to the seniors

Ok thanks. Wish all the best in the journey ahead.

2. Does anyone have a contact at immigration office Akure?

Yes,I have.Got mine within 5hours. Send a pm..xx

masrapido:


Do you know of anyone who used this reason (spouse has a good job and thus isn't ready to immigrate) and still got PR? Back in 2016 when I first started this process, I was told by an agent that your VO might be hesitant to give you the PR since it will be interpreted as if you only want the PR status as a back-up and you will leave Canada whenever things get tough since you still have such a strong tie back home.
Since I came on this forum, I have learnt to take agents' views with a pinch of salt, but I would still like to know what the consensus on this is. Thanks.

My spouse was not ready to travel (good job also.) I explained in an LOE and mentioned the company. No issues. I got my passport stamped and sent to me.
But I think if wifey is not ready to follow, at least the children should be included in the apllication, because whether they go with you or not, you are going to pay for medicals for them as well as a PCC for your wife, the funds must also allow for all of them, so just include them.

I believe it is the same ma.

▪Collating all safety risk hazards across my cluster and prepare a safety report
▪ Maintaining efficient power availability to clients equipment on all co-location cell sites under my purview
▪ Carrying out routine safe house-keeping measures on power equipment such as PIU, ATS, Generators, rectifiers, etc
▪ Effective troubleshooting process and maintenance of remote monitoring system and its reports
▪ Preparation/Revision of all preventive maintenance routines across my cluster

Monitoring and interpretation of remote monitoring system (RMS) communication tool for informed decision making.

Please kindly help identify what my actual NOC is. I studied Mechanical Engineering with about 5 years experience.

Hello everyone,

Please I’m post ITA and I have an issue that I need opinions on.

When filling my profile I stated that I have an aunt as a “Relative/Family” and who would also be my host. Time to upload documents and I’m seeing that I have to show “Proof of relationship” apart from “Family member proof of status”.

Now here lies the issue, my mum and her sister have different dads and as of now my grandma isn’t married to either of them anymore (I have a third grandpa). How can I show the proof of relationship when my mum and her sister never bore the same last name?

Also, when my grandma was married to my mum’s Dad she was a Muslim but when she married my aunt’s Dad she converted to Christianity and changed her name so her name on their birth certificates (when we eventually find it) isn’t even the same.

My aunt wrote a letter describing the family tree but I don’t know if that would suffice as it’s our word against theirs (VOs).

I want to know how I can go about proving this and if it has any effect on my CRS because I’ve been seeing that people are usually only awarded points for siblings.

Thanks for the response. I have sent a PM

victory4me:




Pm me for a contanct

Thank you so much

Hi Ella,

Combining more than one NOC is fine as long as it falls under category A,B or 0 (Customer service/call centre is category C so it will not count)

Thank you so much

Go to your profile. It could be there already..waiting for you. Had same experience. Got to my profile and saw my ITA staring at me but got the mail the next day.

My chest has stopped hurting me. The mail finally dropped. Also checked my profile and saw that beautiful ITA. Time to face the real task.

Thanks again @fizzile

If you are yet to get your required IELTS score and ECA report that will give you a reasonable point to get ITA, please don't create EE profile.

I created my EE profile July 2017 and got ITA in February 2018. My GCMS note (219 pages) is full of details from the day I created EE profile till the date I requested for GCMS note. I'm just thinking that this is contributing to the PPR delay. Too much comments and notes, no negatives though

Sunmisire:
Happytbaby am sure you didn't see anything like she is next in that post. That's how you people would start stupid arguements again. I said am missing her and not she is next.
Please anybody that don't have anything good to say should leave my post in peace oooo.

" STUPID ARGUEMENTS"? This is so so wrong and uncalled for.

Ella99:
Hello All,

I am new here and have some questions please. I will appreciate any and all responses.

Thing is, i have over 5years of work experience but they are all in different job fields; Customer service/call centre rep, marketing (bank) and currently admin....My marketing experience is 2years 9months and i am not sure IRCC will recognize that as 3years so it may lower my CRS points. Although i had training school before the bank job for 4months and i received stipends during this period but i heard the bank will not issue me a letter for that period.

Now my question is, can i combine 2 different NOCs or do i use 1 NOC for all my experiences so that i can at least have 3years work experience and then i'll just get reference letters from all the employers?

I'll appreciate the responses so i can start planning ahead.

Thank you all.

My good family. God bless our hustle o!

Thankfully, I have been helping my younger sister from deciding whether to come to Canada up till IP2 stage (where she currently is).....but the way I dey get butterflies for my belle and chest pain when I get a GMail notification in her inbox ehn, na serious something. My heart dey skip 10 beats in one second sef.

Personally, I am currently in the pool with 433 (losing 5 points this month). So hoping and praying my sister becomes a PR so I can claim 15 points as a sibling and shoot up to 443.

To those in IELTS/ECA/Pre-ITA/Post-ITA stage, let's keep the faith. Your efforts will pay off and it will surely end in praise.

God bless y'all!

IMO, there are no correlation between those inputs and when your PPR would be issued.
That is what the GCMS does. It tells you every little.details concerning your App.

How far? I hear they got some booklets this week and should clear up till May's backlog latest Friday ie next tomorrow. Any luck with yours yet?

Get a document (letter of attestation) showing they they have same mother. They don't have to have same father. The stuff is that the name of both parents will show on the letter of attestation.

You can back it up explaining the remarriages it will end in praise. To get the letter of attestation done, go to any NPC office. The document is accepted because there was no authentic birth certificate when our parents were born.

Note that you will get the letter of attestation for both your mum and your aunt.
