Hello Jasmine17.

Congratulations!!!

Please can you advise on how you handled your application. I am available to PM if preferred. My spouse basically abandoned me and the kids and relocated to the US. I want to apply for Express Entry for myself and two kids. Did you use the divorce route or judicial seperation? Please help. Thanks

Divorce route

Debsify:
cc Jasmine17 I didn't know you're a divorcee

Not yet. Still in the process

Hi guys,
Asking for a friend who has got PPR. She is the PA, they got a text today stating that their passports are ready for collection. The issue is that they sent the tracking number of her spouse four times and that of her children once but hers was not sent. Could this be an error? Has anyone experienced this before?

Ifeoma77:

As in! Maybe IRCC agents read this thread and have seen such posts before - moneybags who are looking for young people to 'be the PA'.
Scrutiny has sha increased, everyone should just be careful

The thread is not hidden. A Google search of most express entry questions brings out:

Nairaland (this thread)

How long does it take for results to be released with CBT?

rosepetraa:


I did both PBT & CBT. If you re good at typing ( not necessarily typist skill level); i will say go with CBT. It is so much easier to re-arrange your paragraphs, move some sentences around, and tweak your essays if typed as compared to cleaning with eraser.

In addition, i found thé Reading CBT easier. There's minimal fear of loosing marks due to not obeying instructions. For example, some questions say choose A, B or C. Exam tension may make you write out thé answer in PBT( I know this cos it happened to me) For CBT, na to just click correct alphabet o. You can also just copy thé answer from thé passage and paste in thé given space ( risk of spelling errors eliminated)

Finally, the fact that you get to do thé Speaking component on thé same day is the icing on thé cake

Jennypharb1:


I believe all the details on the soft copy is same as hard copy, so the ref no should suffice. That's what they're asking for anyway and will still confirm the information with CES. In fact it'll probably be the same soft copy you will upload with your application because the hard copy may take some time.

Thanks dear

Me diving into the pool today. At last.

Sthill5:


I think WES will recognize those schools but to be sure check their list of recognized institution on their website. As for being the PA, na who young pass o. Age is also significant

Thank you very much. God bless you

Election has been postponed.... This is Nigeria**

Amen to your prayer !!!

Congratulations Brother, your ITA is near. Na only me remain for ECA issues so.

johnnybravo1990:
Good day peeps. I finally got my unofficial soft copy ECA from CES after 12 weeks, 4 days post- transcript-delivery.
I was about to dive into the pool, but I halted because I need some guidance from those who have used CES (Comparstive Education Services), or anyone who has a general knowledge.

The unofficial soft copy of the ECA emailed to me today has a reference number that starts with CIC-00****. On my Express Entry profile however, there is a column for 'ECA certificate number'. Is ECA certificate number the same as the reference number on the soft copy I received today?

Mamaroon, are you there?

Hi plus I sent you an email

Good morning house. Please I have a little challenge. I paid for Wes early last year, then no waec was needed. Now I want to continue with the process and I don't know how to go about the waec stuff. Please I need guide line. Thanks lovely people.
And a big congratulations to all those that got their PR recently.

AMEN.
But until then, I'd be wishing them well from my condo in Canada.

Write to them and ask them to remove it as it wasn't a requirement when you signed up, I did the same and they removed it after like one week.

Wow never knew this, just searched through your moniker and read all, it's well bro.

It’s PPR!!!!!!

Decision to migrate: July 2018, after trying without success for about 6 months to get an admission for my masters program and emailing all the course supervisors in Canada. I decided to kukuma just go there. I switched threads, best decision I made.

IELTS: 28th July 2018
MOD 1st and only. God was faithful. LRSW 9,8.5,8,7.5
I didn’t have much time to prepare and on the speaking day, I was trembling, in the 2 minutes talk, I just spoke for about 1 minute and told the nice lady I was done, but it went well overall, when I left the room, I was just thinking of the next available date and where to get the funds from. It’s better to be calm.

ECA: 31st July 2018. WES (before all the madness started) already had my transcript, I just applied for the immigration part, took about 2 days. I am a pharmacist but didn’t use PEBC because I wasn’t practicing and didn’t want their wahala.

POF: funds was 100% gift from my dad. Transferred it to my savings account 2 days prior to submitting my application. I got the non indebtedness and reference letters, transfer successful receipt, and still added a 6 months statement (I later realized there was no need for this statement).

EMPLOYMENT:
My application wasn’t perfect at all. There were difficulties, it gave me sleepless nights.

My 1st and current employment was with my Dad’s company, and I was paid in cash. So I had him draft a letter stating both jobs in IRCC format and another letter stating my current salary and that I was paid cash, I also explained it in my LOE. He signed both letters as the MD of the company.
I believe this was really smooth too because we were in the same line of business. Pharmacy.

My 2nd employment was a federal hospital, they didn’t give us payslips and they had a generic reference letter they refused to amend to IRCC format. I just submitted my offer of employment and the supposed reference letter. Luckily, the offer of employment had my salary, job conditions and start date while the other letter had just duration and a brief job description. Another headache. I submitted them like that. (I should have added a letter from my supervisors to help me sleep better at night)

Mediclas: Children’s practice. It was pretty smooth.

Siblings: I claimed siblings points, my sister was well settled a few months earlier, so I attached everything I could get my hands on. But it was very complete.

Schedule A: I have a virgin passport and about 4 US visa rejections. It should be 5, I didn’t get past the gate on one occasion because of a mistake . All were blue letters though, no misrepresentation or anything. Those people just hated my guts .
So I just respected myself and jejely attached the schedule A form and explained in the LOE.

I had an issue with my name, I always use my 4 names in all my documents, with two of the names separated with a hyphen. But my birth certificate was missing one of the names and I had to add it to claim siblings point. I had done an affidavit, but for some reason I decided not to attach it at the last minute. Another sleepless night because I was so tempted to raise a CSE and attach it, but I decided to relax. When I ordered my gcms notes, I realized an officer had a little issue with it but with the hyphen in my name being absent in another document. (Please just attach the affidavit of name change to avoid stories.)

CRS Score: 456. Should have been 470s but CIC didn’t give me professional points. I followed some people’s advice that I’d be given professional degree points because of my degree irrespective of what my ECA says. It’s a lie.

ITA: 22nd August 2018
AOR: 10th September 2018.
MED passed/ BIL: 4th October.
Biometrics submitted: 8th October
VO- Ottawa

Then the wait started.

Biometrics completed: 14th February, 2019.
My biometrics just completed this week, we were a lot that had this issue and initially thought it was an issue but to God be the glory. The only thing that changed in my status was medical. I had raised several CSEs, emailed Ralph and called once.

Ghost update on the 4th of January.
Ordered gcms notes on the 12th of December, received on the 15th January, 2019.
Apart from the name, every other thing was fine. Just Criminality had been passed.

February 14th, got another ghost update, raised another CSE and I was replied the day after that a decision had been made.

PPR mail: February 16th, 3:56am (dated 15th)

Thanks to a lot of people who helped me, shared in my worries, adviced me. It has ended in praise, yours will too.
