Hello. For CPA, it's according to provinces but one thing I can tell you for sure is that Ontario takes time.

You have to complete a tax and law course which costs arounf 670 CAD and this can be bought via a draft in CAD. U can tell someone to help you. You need to fill a work experience form and get letter for good standing from ACCA. U need to evaluate your ACCA transcript from WES. Course by Course.

For the tax and law course. U must score 80 to get the certificate as it is part of your requirements. Let me tell u a trick, u may not read those long lengthy chapter. Just go to the quiz and do tinini tanana, till u pass the 80. Hahahaha. All the best.


Hmm. Now I hope there will not be a problem with the WES evaluation because I plan to use my ACA (ICAN) to get exemptions for ACcA exams.

However I was thinking of doing CIA, although I have no audit experience.

@Youngwolf. To reply messages, delete the words in btw to shorten it and make sure the [..quote in intact.]. That way you quote the reply. I know for CPA Ontario, if you got your ACCA with another qualification, like ICAN. You can't apply for CPAO. Maybe it's different in other provinces.

See this. (members who obtained membership in ACCA through an MRA with another professional body are not eligible under this MRA).

*Someone's timeline*

*Entrepreneurship Testimony*

*Ola's PPR - Nova Scotia Entrepreneur Route*

Hmm, this journey...I would read testimonies and would ask myself, when will it be my turn. I turned that question to prayer to God and He showed up for me.

CRS was initially 326, hubby evaluated his masters and it moved to 327, then I wrote IELTS in August and got a slightly improved score. CRS moved to 340. Then I further evaluated my OND and CRS moved to 359 (OND that I had earlier discarded gave 19 points! Wonders !). Anyways, at this.point, I knew God had to intervene in PNP as best option for me and family.

SINP EE submission - 5th July 2018
AOR - 5th July 2018
IP - August 2018
Septeber 2018 - Wrote to SINP about change in profile

Then the wait....

In January 2019, was led in my spirit to research the business/entrepreneur route. I researched extensively and decided to apply to Nova Scotia as easier for me to meet their requirements.

2 Jan 2019 - NSNP acknowledgement received
8 Jan 2019 - Invitation to apply received from NSNP
9 Jan 2019 - withdrew SINP application ( I just had peace to do this. I had a conviction there may be an issue with work experience matching.

18 Jan 2019 - applied to IRCC for exploratory visit visa
5 Feb 2019 - procedural fairness letter received ( they queried why I didnt state a prior U.S visa refusal. The truth is that at the date of my visa application submission, I had not received correspondence from U.S embassy on my visa renewal. I received correspondence on 22 Jan 2019, in which they asked me and my family ( it was a family application) to come for an interview. I wrote IRCC stating this and God showed up for me ( meanwhile, U.S embassy denied our visa renewal)
12 March 2019 - passport request for visitor visa for the exploratory visit (3 months visa given)
12- 19 May 2019 - exploratory visit to Nova Scotia
26 May 2019 - application sent to NSNP (Paper application)

Under the program, PR is given after landing and successfully running the business for a year.

Revelation 12:11 " and they overcame him by the blood and by the word of their testimony..."I know my PR is sure in a year's time, as stipulated in the program guideline, by God's grace and I will share the testimony in Jesus name

�������dancing my dance, singing my song - � Jesus, you are a wonder (3x) Jesus, you are a wonder to my soul�
shouting Halleluyah �������

... Naija to Nova Scotia...

I give God all the glory. He answers prayers.

Lyrical - thanks for helping me even when you had not met me in person. I asked you lots of questions and you answered me kindly. Such an incredible personality.

Solomon ( now in Nova Scotia) - my brother from another mother that I met on this group. You kept encouraging me.

Ma IG - I would like to thank you specially for replying my DMs at those times when I was so unsure. You have never met me before; I just introduced myself from the group and you were very helpful with honest answers to my questions. And thanks for setting up this excellent group with fine people.

For furniture, you can start out with liquidation stores, Kijiji, Facebook marketplace, etc. You can get good quality for cheap/free or just get cheap. After like 2/3 years and you have stabilized then you can buy new furniture that you'll really like.

Ethelia:


Thank you. Both Kijiji and Marketplace have been highly recommended and so I think it's best I focus my energy on those 2 for now
