Congratulations!! It ended in praise, my wish for you is that you'll find favour in your new home. quote author=Fadia post=76887945]LONG POST AHEAD The Lord is good and His mercies endureth forever. His praises shall continually be in my mouth for He truly is too faithful to fail. It’s finally here, the long awaited COPR! I keep going back to stare it ![]() IELTS – 14th October 2017 ECA – December 2017 1st EE Profile – 5th May 2018 1st ITA – 9th May 2018 2nd EE Profile – 31st May 2018 2nd ITA – 25th June 2018 CRS - 443 AOR – 8th September 2018 MEP/BIL – 4th October 2018 Biometrics completed – 4th October 2018 RPRF – 16th January 2018 (Paid without an official request from CIC and raised CSE with payment receipt) 1st and only CIC Call – 5th February 2018 (The agent said security and criminality were not yet started and I felt really bad and decided I wasn’t going to call again or order GCMS Notes till after the 6-month mark, if PPR wasn’t here by then) PPR – 14th February 2018 (God gave me a wonderful Valentine’s Day gift) Submitted passport – 25th February 2018 COPR – 20th March 2018 No ADR Ottawa Visa Office SINGLE APPLICANT DECISION TO TRAVEL Lol It was initially more of my mum’s decision than mine. I was meant to go for my masters in the U.S. and then work on getting a work permit and staying back after. Lol little did I know I was deceiving myself. My EE journey officially started in July/August 2017 with my mum constantly researching and hammering on the entire process. Some family friends had recently relocated and had advised my mum to use a lawyer to avoid mistakes and blah blah. I was so uninterested initially and constantly felt she was bugging me over unnecessary things and the lawyer’s fees also did not make matters any better. Few days after later, my mum contacted the lawyer and connected us together. She (My mum) would constantly call me at work to ask if I had called the lawyer and insisted on being copied in all email correspondence between the lawyer and I. She even offered to pay the $200 dollars for the initial consultation fees and that was how I kick started the process. IELTS registered with BC and wrote my exam on the 14th of October 2017. I majorly used the free 30 hours of practice and some days before the test I browsed through some study materials the lawyer had sent me. My speaking test was the Monday before my Saturday writing exams and it generally went well. The night before the writing exams, God just led me to one of the videos on the BC Practice page and I learnt some tricks to passing the reading exam without necessarily reading through or wasting much time and that was how I got 8,9,8,7 in LRSW in my first and only attempt. ECA (WES) I started in October 2017 and so I didn’t encounter the WAEC wahala. My aunt is a lecturer at my University and helped apply for my transcripts and covered that aspect. Then I sorted my CIPM transcripts myself. I had to send the CIPM transcript myself though because they won’t do it for you. I sent it in their name sha. Verification was also very easy with my school because they have a proper process in place for all that. ECA came out in December 2017 and was evaluated as two degrees (CIPM certificate was evaluated as equivalent to a 3-year bachelor’s degree) 4-MONTH LONG HIATUS By the time my evaluation was over, I was in the process of moving houses and still had a number of other bills to settle so even if they shook me and threw me up and down, they won’t have found shishi on me to pay the lawyer as processing fee. Unfortunately, because neither myself nor my mum knew that we could successfully continue the process without a lawyer, I felt like I was at a dead end so I completely stopped thinking about the process and went back to reconsidering my U.S. masters. I also started considering schools in Canada sha with the mindset of “at least one must click”. EE PROFILE In May 2018, a close friend, who I had earlier told about EE, called me to ask how far with my process. She said she had entered the pool and gotten ITA the week before and that I should better forget about the lawyer and start my thing myself. (I remember when my mum and I told her about it in 2017 and she said she didn’t have any money for a lawyer and wanted to do it on her own. I Kept discouraging her and saying she shouldn’t use her hand to spoil her application and I even started getting angry in the process). After the call, I called the lawyer and told her to send me all my documents that she had with her, that I was no longer continuing with her. She tried to persuade me and asked if we should come up with a payment plan to make things easier, I haven’t replied that mail till today. I created my first profile that weekend and got ITA the following week, on the 9th of May 2018. Man, that was the beginning of the joy and me starting to take things seriously. After getting ITA, I kick-started my own research and somehow stumbled on this thread in Part 4 and became addicted. *I said first EE profile because I ended up deleting it. I had created it using an additional fake work experience to give me additional points. After ITA, I became so uncomfortable and my conscience couldn’t take it anymore so on the 31st of May I declined the invitation and deleted the profile. Fortunately, I created another profile with a new email and with all the correct details immediately and guess what? I had the EXACT same CRS of 443. I felt so silly and upset with myself because I could have saved myself sleepless nights and unnecessary headache by just using the correct information from the very beginning (I didn’t know about the CRS tool before creating my profile). Unfortunately, I didn’t meet the cut-off for ITA in the next draw and when another draw date came again there was no draw. Then on June 25th, one very fine Monday evening, my friend called me and asked if I had gotten my ITA, that there was a draw that day and it was 442 (so close! Thank God!). A few hours after the call, I got the wonderful mail. Then the main journey began… REFERENCE LETTERS I had worked in 2 other places before my current job (thankfully, I worked in HR in both companies so I had direct access to the people preparing the letters). My current company was the easiest because I was the one to do the letter myself hehe (it’s a very small company and we’re very few). I prepared the letter and gave it to my boss to read and sign. PASSPORT Ikoyi Passport office showed me PEPPER! I had less than 6 months at the time I was to do medicals so I paid for express but still ended up waiting for almost 2 months to get my passport. I started the process with my old passport so I had to upload both. I created a table of contents indicating that there were 2 passports MEDICALS Did this at Children’s practice when my passport came out and it was pretty straightforward. PCC With our very own Inspector Moshood. I paid 4,500 for mine POF I used a gift deed then I bought treasury bills with the money before AOR. After it matured I left the funds in my account for a while then bought T-bills again in January but I didn’t raise any CSE for it. I also wrote an LOE and attached my account statement showing the day the money entered my account and when I bought T-bills. I created a table of contents here as well and attached the gift deed, LOE, account statement, T-bills certificate, Oanda conversion on the date of submission and XE conversion on the date of submission. AFFIDAVITS 1. I had some discrepancies in my name on my certificate and passport so my dad did a “one and same person” affidavit for me and I uploaded it in the “Legal Name Change” placeholder alongside my original birth certificate. 2. I claimed FSW points with my aunt and she didn’t have her birth certificate to show our relationship so my mum swore an affidavit of relationship (if I can call it that) and also went to NPC to do a letter of attestation for my aunt. FAMILY MEMBER PROOF OF STATUS I uploaded my aunt’s Passport, utility bills and 2 employment T4s. With all these my uploading and uploading, I kept telling myself that my application is airtight and I’d get PPR in 2 months max LOOOOOOL. Anyway, COPR is here now and I have almost completely forgotten all the stress and I owe it all to God and the wealth of information on this thread. I thank God for the unusual peace and patience I had during the entire waiting period. MAY GOD CONTINUALLY BLESS EVERYONE FOR THEIR HELP AND INPUT IN EVERY WAY AND I PRAY FOR SPEEDY AND SUCCESSFUL PROCESSING FOR EACH AND EVERYONE IN JESUS NAME. CONGRATULATIONS IN ADVANCE!! [/quote] |

Silent reader here.. Please does anyone know if it is possible to get Passport in Nigeria without physically being there (finger prints and such would be scanned sent)? This might sound silly but after almost 2 months of waiting and the deadline drawing near. I need suggestions please. Or does anyone have any contacts/connections for passport in the US. Please help! |

I struggle to understand how you said the position is not a managerial role but has 'manager' as the title.Choosing 1123 and having to explain to VO with LOE may raise suspicion and ultimately extra scrutiny and perhaps interview. If you must use 1123 then you may have to rephrase the title to Marketing Communication officer or executive and tailor the JDs accordingly My 2cent, as long as your HR or your supervisor can give you a letter bearing Marcom manager and you are certain you have performed those duties listed in 0124, go with it. Only you know it's not a managerial role.Sometimes our fears are unfounded 55emem55: 3 Likes |
