Journey started August last year, my ex and I broke up 2 months before and I remember seeing one Canadian agent’s cArd in his wallet. I sha snapped it and never bothered about it. He wanted to go to Estonia as he was into IT and hoped to get shengien visa. I did my research on Nairaland too and sent him the link, we both read. My dumb ass really wanted to go with him as per the “LOML” when I knew fully well Estonia was never in my bucket list � after the breakup I realized I wanted Canada or Australia instead of the Estonia I was researching on. I carried myself to Nairaland and read the express entry thread for both countries and concluded Canada was easier and left Australia. I called the agency guys and went to their office, I paid 10k and captioned it “Mumu Money” they asked why I did that I said I’m scared if it would worth it. Long and short, all what they told me was what I already knew with the exception of the fact that if I had National Diploma it would earn me extra points (I didn’t know this before that day). I figured it wasn’t a waste afterall as I had gained some confidence in what I already knew And Nairaland wasn’t selling crap to me.

My cousin in the US suggest I come to there as that’s where the money is and leave Canada. I was stucked in a limbo as to whether to chose US and go on a student visa or go for Canada as PR. Canada far outweighed US as this Trump ish was becoming a pain in the ass.

Sometimes in September 2018 or there about another bobo waka come that wan said it was Australia he was going to that he preferred it cos of distance and he won’t have to look back to naija again. Omo na so I borrow myself brain sharp sharp I told him I’m not doing oh before another boy comman ruin my career for me �

WES account created on 27 July 2018, paid August 1 and this was before the WAEC saga but somehow they managed to drag me back to be among those that must verify WAEC. ECA was the longest wait time! Took over 5 months to get it all sorted. My friend in ilorin helping me had exams to write so he couldn’t give it his 100% time, I can’t blame him. asked him to tip the guys in school. Total cost for ECA was N140,285 started 1 August 2018 ready 14 January 2019. I used nipost to send my certificate and AAT Transcript(sent separately it was 4k, the lady use scope to corner my change), my Bsc was delivered but my AAT wasn’t I found out after 2 months wait and sent again with UPS, paid N14,500. Waec cost 10k and paid 9k for courier through UPS. I got the UPS woman’s number begged her to let me include my ATS transcript(which was ready in less than 3 days) alongside my WAEC transcript. She no gree, I tipped her 2k and she was extra nice. I had two or more certificates (BSC and AAT)

IELTS
So I wrote twice both were MOD
First one was for AUG 18 LRWS - 8, 8, 7.5, 6.5 �
Second was Oct 27 LRWS - 8, 8, 7.5, 7 �
My first IELTS experience, I prepared for a month and used mostly Jay’s video from E2 language , I didn’t like Liz then Cos I thought she smiled too much � and I couldn’t concentrate but laugh at her smiling face �

After them nack my 6.5 I paid 46k for remark but “Result remained unchanged” ewww my chest ahh. I wanted to register for another one in that same September but it was too short and I didn’t want to take chances. I registered for October 27 immediately before I left their office. My lazy a$$ didn’t read until 20th of October, reality hit me that I can’t fail this time o. I was to resume a new job, I begged for a month grace and my one month was spent enjoying life and restructuring my new house. I started reading and I visited the ielts thread and saw most people recommended Liz paid video! I mentioned codedplace taya to send me link he say send mail. That was how I left him and resulted to LIZ videos on YouTube, I subscribed for IELTS advantage by Chris Pell. It’s a 5 days course but I took it in 2 days as my exam was already in 3 days time. I went back to the ielts thread the night before my exam and check codedplace profile, his old posts found out he had previously dropped the link. Naso I open am, saw 3 videos of 1 hr plus each. Grim!! My goodness! It’s past 10pm already and I need to sleep. I downloaded the 3 videos and turned off my internet to avoid visiting WhatsApp and Twitter every minute. I was stucked with Liz smiling face for another 3 hours , Took my earpiece and watched the videos till 1am and I slept. I must say, those videos really helped me. I took less water as I went into the exam hall for my paper. The fact that I had to pee in my first attempt and spent 15 minutes been restless before I was allowed to go out was part of what accounted for my poor performance the first time, so I didn’t let it happen again.(lesson, reduce water intake before going to the hall) Result turned out as expected. Glory be to God.

PCC inspector moshood was 4k. I think this was the easiest of all.

Medicals was IOM on 30th January paid 41,400. I had earlier called Qlife to book appointment but they told me the earliest available period was April kilode! Na medicals I wan do, I no kill person. I used google and landed on IOM website. I called to book an appointment then I was asked to send my email. I was booked for the following Wednesday (30th Jan)

POF I uploaded 6 months statement of account with savings.

Work experience
Letter in CIC format, 3 months pay slip and 4 months account statement. I didn’t highlight my salary. I had no idea that was a thing as at then.

Called twice to enquire about VO and if eligibility has started. The last call was 9th of May and was told Eligibility has not been completed. I asked if it was started she responded again “Eligibility has not been completed” if it’s me that don’t understand English or it’s she, I ended the call and swore not to call back till 6 months is passed.

ADR May 11th was for copy of Education degrees. This is when I would say God stood for me. When. I got request letter I jumped out of joy that PPR was here alas it was ADR goosh! I wan slap person. I just said to myself seems this CIC people just want to see my finesse certificates again but unknown to me the fault was from me. I uploaded my passport and captioned it EDUCATION + ECA when I submitted my application. This I only found out when I was to upload the new one, I opened the old one with the intention of seeing what I did wrong to correct it this second grace period. Lo and behold I found my passport all pages inside!!! I uploaded Degrees, IELTS And use Ilovepdf to join my ECA with it. (Lesson here, always double check before uploading)

May 17 about 3am, I found myself awake. I said to myself lemme pray. I checked my work mail like 5 times already a

Congratulations @topsmamen, I'm super happy for you.

Inloveforever:

Honestly? I think you should pack your bags in July and come and be going

Congratulations WhizzyG.

1) kindly highlight the Christian statement in my comment
2) how many times have you read the Quran to be sure I didn't quote it

TWoods:


It’s interesting how christian-sounding Nigerian Muslims have become. You’ve essentially quoted actual bible verses that are not found in the Koran.

Amen!!! Thanks for the prayer.

Edmontonlad:
Mark my word today, before this month finishes, PPR shall come your way in Jesus name, amen.

Don't loose hope ok.

A big Amen to that Ma. We shall all testify.

pejuhazel:

No o you're not the only one, I am also December AOR . My fingers are permanently crossed as I have been waiting tirelessly for PPR. By God's grace it'll get to us soon

Thanks Ma, It is just so darn difficult staying focused.

ladymarshall:
Soon! Soon! It's coming. Stay positive

Omabb:
Greetings everyone. Please has anyone seen or heard of a family of 6 who was given PR.?

even if you are a family of 100. However the requirements cannot be altered. in fact they want your type of family.

Any sample I can adopt please?

bellexa22:
You can but honestly it doesn't matter you still need the consent letter.

it's always a good idea to commence the process

Your MSc could be enough for you guys (depending on other factors like age, years of work experience, IELTS scores etc) have no fear sha.

Taydex198:
I have MSc and my spouse is School Cert holder for now but she will write IELTS with me. Pls I need advice if it a great idea to commence the process.

Thanks in advance of your advise.

Your friend should wake up o. The school has no right whatsoever to tell him/her that her file can't be found, having gone through the rigours of studies. Please, write to the school's registry forthwith. They will find your file.

See o! I knew you were waiting to lash me if I scored him less. I'm sure some silent readers would have come out of hiding

Stencil:
Phew! I was waiting for this.
Well done Lady M, well done.

He deserves the badge. Congrats @topsmamen. May canny land favour you

Yes you can as an FSW outland as long as your work was full time, 40 hours per week. I was working while doing my MA. You will need to attach an LOE to explain time overlaps in your MA and work period under personal history while filling the e-APR form after you get ITA.

Money has to change hands in this case. If the money is good enough, they will find your file.

Hi, shared my IELTS folder with you, hope it helps.

I'm grateful

Seniors in the house, I seriously need your counsel as I'm in a terrible dilemma. I am currently in the pool with 447, I have the chance of boosting my score to 450 if I remark and get an upgrade from 7 to 7.5 for ielts writing. I'm however caught in between whether or not to do that. My birthday is February.

Thanks all.
