wealthiest1:I might be able to help, go t a date for 15th with children's practice but not going anymore. If interested pm me, was going to call to cancel before Helpful tip: when booking medicals ask if you can be put on the waiting list, incase an earlier date becomes available. I booked medicals at both CP and Q life, got 15th Oct and 1st Nov dates respectively, asked to be put on waiting list for both, got a call from qlife on 27th Sept that Oct 2 was now available since I asked to be put on a waiting list. I accepted sharply 17 Likes 2 Shares |

joo2018: @joo2018 thanks for this enlightening write up. But I would like to ask.. I am actually concerned about your thoughts on point 1 & 2, because I have an engineering degree both BSc & MSc. I also have and claimed 2yrs experience for NOC 4163 which falls under Skill A. Is there a possibility that there may be additional scrutiny on my application? |

1. No need to be that concerned. The law states (point 1) that the employment requirements may not be strictly adhered to. Anyway, you are a graduate applying for NOC A. A graduate is a graduate. 2. Plenty of people have gotten PPR with NOC employment requirements mismatch including @Newmum0615 (studied engineering and is in finance) and most people claiming NYSC for points. 3. Case officers are human beings too and may apply added scrutiny if they feel something is off with the application. 4. Added scrutiny doesn't necessarily lead to refusal. Procedural fairness demands that the case officer request for ADR or Interview if he/she is not convinced of the facts of an application. doncorleone: 2 Likes |

Thanks for clearing this. Also, the part where you input the date when you first qualify to practise under the chosen NOC doesn’t have anything to do with your points calculation. You will still get a full 25 points even if you enter 2018 as the date inasmuch as your Work Experience spans the required 3 years. joo2018: |

armstead: Very Short Post Alert In another news!!! Apologies this is coming late. It’s PPR!!!! Started this journey in October 2017 after we made a decision to relocate. IELTS showed me pepper as I had to take it three times: 1st - 10 February 2018 LRWS 6,8,8,7.5 2nd - 24 March 2018 LRWS 7.5,8,6.5,8, when I saw this result midnight of 6 April, I quickly registered for the following day’s test without much preparation. 3rd - 7 April 2018 LRWS 8.5,8.5,7,8. As a result of this third IELTS result, our CRS jumped to 450 from 3hundred and sth(don’t ask me questions ). I would say please don’t give up on this journey because I was almost losing confidence in myself after my second IELTS result as I rarely fail exams. I also got encouragement on this forum seeing some people gave (as our Indian brothers will say) IELTS up to 7 times and now in Canada. Hence, I had to quickly re-take the test to avoid losing momentum. Timeline Minimum invited CRS 441 CRS 450 FSWO NOC 1111 ITA 25 April AOR 5 June MEP 18 June IP1 19 June GCMS note request 30 August (had to request as I was scared after reading some comments here about Pension fund not being considered by CIC for POF) IP2 27 September Ghost update 2 October Received GCMS 2 October (everything looks fine and I remember sharing here my PF was considered as POF as minimum required fund was marked met) Then the long awaited golden mail arrived!!!! PPR 3 October 2018 at exactly 3:39am, can’t remember the seconds No ADR Family size 3 Ottawa VO ECA - I used WES but those guys plus our regular naija strike stressed me Walahi; I sha got the completed reports for spouse and myself after 6 months. PCC - Got for U.K. and Nigeria. U.K PCC is pretty easy to get once you follow instructions on their site. For Nigeria PCC, used inspector Moshood for spouse and myself. He charged us N17,000 because we couldn’t go to Alagbon as all correspondence with him was via email. However, I sent a friend to pick the original certificates from him and scan to me. Contrary to what I have read here, I decided to exclude from my eApr the Alagbon stamped fingerprints papers accompanying the PCC because I felt it wasn’t relevant since CIC only requested for PCC; so I only uploaded the Police certificates with our application. Thank God there was no issue with it. Although, I wanted to take style avoid implicating myself as I was in the U.K. when I submitted my application and the procedure for getting fingerprints done was expensive for me and stressful; so I bought ink pad from one shop and did the stuff in my room, then scanned to inspector Moshood. I felt if I had included the fingerprints with my application, any inquisitive VO may flag that “how did he get PCC as the fingerprints were not certified or stamped by U.K. police &/or Nigeria High commission”. Just my thinking though. POF - Hmmm, I had to patch this one o; I used Treasury bills from Stanbic as 55% of POF (didn’t include any bank statements), cash in Dom account with a foreign bank was 28% (only submitted stamped bank statements and a letter from the bank stating when the account was opened as I intentionally didn’t want to get the format letter requested by CIC because I have credit card debt with the bank which I wasn’t sure may affect my POF; God had mercy sha) while my PF was the remaining 17% of POF. I prayed o for them to consider this PF as it was my last resort and only hope at that time as I don’t have anybody that can gift me money. Can’t remember the last time I got money gift again, maybe childhood. As advised on this thread, I prepared a table for the POF and explained each, particularly the PF section, very well as I had initially withdrawn some voluntary contributions in 2017 and this reflected on the Pension statements. Had to let them know the withdrawn amount was a voluntary contribution and does not constitute part of the accessible 25% o before somebody will start running around for money way no loss upon ADR for the balance. Work experience - got over 3 years work experience and getting reference letter was pretty easy. God bless my employer. Although, not necessary, I submitted work experience letter for my wife too since we had it readily available. Medicals - Everything was fine for 3 of us other than the Dr recommending me for a further test because he sighted protein in my urine. God forbid!!! But thank God all was well after the further test although he still included protein something which my Jesus had taken away. Travel history - just US and UK and no Visa refusal history Criminal history - None by His grace other than childhood stealing of pencils and biros; and beating traffic lights in Lagos; which Nigeria PCC did not capture. What again?? Ok lest I forget, I got 15 points for sibling in Canada �� so provided Copies of her PR card, utility bills within 3 months of eApr, marriage certificates and birth certificates showing names of both parents. I included sibling’s marriage certificate and newspaper publication for change of name as sibling is married and utility bill carries husband’s name. My prayer for all still waiting for IELTS, ECA, ITA, POF and PPR is that it will surely come speedily in Jesus’ name. Amen This thread is very informative and is got selfless people always willing to share. May God bless you all. Armstead 106 Likes 8 Shares |

My Uncle got his PPR today. First IELTS: 7.5, 9, 8, 8 Second IELTS: 8.5, 9, 6.5, 8 I advised him to apply for a remark while preparing to re-write the exam, it came back positive. Second IELTS was upgraded to: 8.5,9 ,8, 8 and the money was refunded. The Third IELTS came out as: 8.5, 9, 7, 7 WES was done since 2017. Documents gathering like Employment letters, PCC and MEDS was done from June to July. POF was in USD and untouched for almost 2 years. He's a single applicant. He got an ITA on 8th August with CRS 456. AOR: AUGUST 15 MEP: SEPTEMBER 13 GHOST UPDATES (NOT BY EMAIL): SEPTEMBER 27 & OCTOBER 3 PPR: OCTOBER 5TH MIDNIGHT, DATED OCTOBER 4TH. He is not based in Nigeria but is currently visiting now till december. I assume he can submit the passport to the nearest VAC like lekki or Abuja, am i right? Or it has to be sent to the LVO based in his location abroad? I feel awkward posting this because i have been reading silently for years and see that some people are still waiting for the golden mail after several long months, guys do not despair, what will be yours cannot be denied. For others that are yet to apply, canada awaits you all, goodluck to everyone. 72 Likes |
