Hello guys. I’ll very much appreciate responses to my question.

I have been on this PR journey for a while and now I have PPR.
I have a finance that I would love to have me as quickly as possible. We are not married so, I can’t add her as a dependent.

My question is what is the best way to have her me quickly?
Will I be able to invite her for visit visa if I can prove the relationship ? I really want student visa to be the last resort.

I was in your shoes last year.

I got married after receiving my PPR and I immediately started the process of adding my wife to my application. I submitted a webform with all the required documents, including our marriage certificate and wedding photos, as seen on the IRCC site and Canada Visa.

IRCC later responded that my wife couldn’t be added because my file had been closed. I submitted another webform and received the same response. I even called them, but the representative just reiterated the same thing.

So I bought my ticket, and with just two weeks left before my departure, I received an email from IRCC requesting that my wife should go for her biometrics and medical exams.

So in summary, na 50-50. E fit work, e fit no work. Spousal sponsorship is 29 months now, which is quite a while.

Also, when we thought my wife couldn’t be added to the application, we were also looking at a visa route for spouses that have a spousal sponsorship application in progress. They could get a fast tracked visiting visa and then when they come in, they can apply for an Open Work Permit.

All the best man.

As a family of four(An adult and 3kids all below 14years) residing in Nigeria, I would like to know if PTE or CELPIP exams are acceptable alternatives to IELTS

CELPIP is acceptable.

The dishonesty is crazy. During leetcode contests all the cheaters are always Indians. How are you even cheating for such stuff? Everything is just so cut throat and competitive with them.

You've not seen the ones that lip sync during interviews?

During interviews, they would arrange for someone knowledgeable about the role to be in the same room as them (the candidate being interviewed). When the interviewer asks questions, the knowledgeable person provides/says the answers, while the candidate on camera would be chewing mouth like he's saying something. If the interviewer picks up on something suspicious, they blame it on "network issues" to cover up the situation.

Also Indian being good coders is completely wash. Maybe the top one percent are but majority are completely horrible.

I had an Indian colleague who was hired as a Microsoft Azure Subject Matter Expert (SME). On a few occasions, I reached out to him for assistance with some issues I was facing. Unfortunately, he either wouldn’t respond or seemed unaware of what I was asking. I ended up doing my own research and often discovered that the solutions were quite simple. There are highly skilled engineers among them who do very well at their roles, but there are also many who lack the necessary knowledge or expertise for the positions they were hired for.

God will judge both of them . Check blacktech’s linkedin page and see many of the victims with their bogus work experience from same blacktech.

Eno used my guy to do testimonials meanwhile he had gotten his tech related job before he took her course 😂

Na so most of them dey do. They will tell you that they have partnered with companies and you will land a job after their masterclass/bootcamp. They will even show you various testimonials of “people” that have gone through their programs and are now working.

When you’re done, you’ll now see reality. No partner companies, no jobs. They would work on your CV by adding bogus work experiences at companies you never worked at. Some interview prep here and there and e don finish.

Good day everyone,

My husband has a Masters degree, which is the degree we evaluated. Is that the only education history I need to add to the Express Entry Profile?
Should I add his B.SC to his education history on the Profile?


Yes, you would have to add his BSc. to his education history.

LONG LANDING GIST undecided

I initially bought my ticket for just myself because IRCC informed me that I wouldn't be able to add my spouse after my port had been stamped with the Permanent Residency (PR) visa. We got married after I had received my port back, and I'll be honest—if you're in a similar situation, I highly recommend getting married before you receive your port Request (PPR), ideally even before receiving your Invitation to Apply (ITA) or submitting your Application of Residence (AOR). It would have made things much easier for us.

I got married after my port had been stamped. So, after our wedding, I did the right thing and promptly informed IRCC about the change in my family status. I raised multiple webforms to have my spouse added to my application, hoping for a smooth process. But after weeks of back and forth, they responded, advising me to travel first and then apply for spousal sponsorship for my wife. I can’t lie—that email really hit me hard. Determined not to give up, I raised another webform that same day, resubmitting the same documents I had previously shared with IRCC. To my surprise, I received a response within an hour. Unfortunately, it was more of the same—they informed me that they couldn’t add the documents to my application. I even called IRCC, hoping for a different outcome, but the person I spoke to reiterated the same thing: I’d have to complete the spousal sponsorship process for my wife after I landed in Canada. It was a painful realization, but at that point, I knew I had to move forward.

So, I went ahead and purchased my ticket. I figured the sooner I landed, the sooner I could start the sponsorship process and begin working on reuniting with my wife. I dropped my resignation letter at work, and the countdown to leaving Nigeria officially began. About two weeks later, we received a medical request message from IRCC for my wife. Before that day, I had already accepted the idea of traveling without my wife, so I was in shock. Just like that, we started the process of adding her to my application. IRCC opened placeholders for the required documents, sent a biometrics request, and just like that, things were moving again. I had to push my flight forward to accommodate everything, but I was excited that it was finally happening. Once the process of adding my wife was completed, we received our second port Request (PPR). With that, the excitement kicked in! We started buying the necessary items, saying our goodbyes to family and friends, and doing all the typical preparations before a big move.

When the day of the flight finally arrived, the airport officials were trying to be strict at first, but as soon as we spoke their 'language' (money), they allowed the whole family through without too much hassle. Luckily, three of our 23kg bags were within the weight limit. The fourth one was just 2kg over, but they let us transfer the extra weight into our hand luggage. We declared all our foodstuff and filled out the necessary forms. In all the rush and stress, I even forgot to padlock one of our bags. Once we got through all that, we said our emotional goodbyes to our family and headed to immigration. Customs had us declare our cash even though both of us had less than $10,000 each, which was a bit unexpected but not a big deal. We headed to the Ethiopian Airlines boarding gate and waited to board. I noticed one Naija guy wearing shorts and thought to myself, “Shey this guy no go freeze laidis?” Anyway, we eventually boarded the plane for the first leg of the trip—about five hours to Addis Ababa. The flight was smooth, and the food was okay. Not that I particularly liked it, but man must chop, right?

I paid for in-flight WiFi, only to find out there was none on this flight to Addis! When we landed in Addis, the transit was smooth. We quickly connected to the airport WiFi to give our family an update on our journey. Soon enough, we boarded the next flight from Addis to Toronto, with a quick stop in Rome. The Addis to Rome leg was about 5 hours 30 minutes, and when we got to Rome, we stayed on the plane for about an hour while they refueled. No one was allowed to get off. The Rome to Toronto leg was another 8 hours and some change. I paid for WiFi on this flight too, and while I could see the WiFi endpoint or access point, it didn’t work at all! The air hostess later told all of us to send an email for a refund. Annoying, but at least there was a solution. The food was okay again, nothing special, but when they served breakfast, I made the mistake of choosing waffles instead of eggs. I don’t know who sent me to do that! The amount of sugar in those waffles—I swear, I could use it to drink garri for the whole year. It was just too sweet. Luckily for me, my wife didn’t finish her eggs, so I helped her out with those. Throughout the flight, both the first leg and the second, I barely got any sleep. But when we finally landed in Canada, the excitement hit me hard. I was so happy to finally be here!

We went through the ArriveCAN process, which was really smooth. They had attendants there to help with anything we didn’t understand, so it went by quickly. Then we made our way to immigration.
the guy I mentioned back in Nigeria, the one wearing shorts? The same guy I thought would freeze in the cold? Well, by the time we got to immigration, he was already being attended to. But let me tell you, they weren’t just questioning him—they were grilling him.

Apparently, he was on a visit visa, and the immigration officer asked him what he did for a living. Baba confidently responded, "I’m a businessman." The officer asked again, and he repeated the same thing. Finally, he started listing all the things he supposedly sells—houses, cars, plumbing materials, and so on. I wasn’t even looking at him, but his voice was so loud that I could hear everything. My wife, who was paying more attention, said that when he was listing all the stuff, he was actually reading it off his phone! Haaaaa!!!. He was saying stuff about how he’s been working since January and this is the only time he has for holiday. That he wants to use his 2 weeks holiday here and then leave. I don’t think the immigration officer was having it as he stood up to go talk to someone at some point.

There was also another young guy nearby, who I’m pretty sure was a student. I couldn’t hear what he and the immigration officer were discussing, but based on the officer’s facial expressions and the guy’s body language, it didn’t seem like the news was good. Anyway, our own immigration encounter was smooth—thankfully! We were done in about five minutes, no stress at all. By the time we were done and on our way out, we saw that the guy with the visit visa was still there, being grilled. Poor guy!

After immigration, we headed to baggage claim, exchanged some dollars, and got an eSIM card. We were told to go down one level, where Uber and Lyft pick up engers, so we did. Our first stop was my wife’s friend’s place, where we finally had some good Nigerian food. We made sure to stay awake until 9 p.m. Canadian time to quickly adjust to the time difference from Nigeria. Despite that, I was up by 5:30 the next morning. The next day, we took care of the essentials—did our SIN registration and opened a bank , and went to our Airbnb.

Canada has been pretty chilled so far. Oh, I almost forgot to mention—there’s already a bit of cold, and people keep telling me, “It’s not even winter yet!” Lmao. So, trust me, I always KAK up whenever I leave the house!

Thanks for reading this long post.

Please is this real ??

If you're applying to a Canadian school, this information is incorrect, as Canada doesn't conduct visa interviews for study permits. However, if you're applying to a U.S school, a visa interview is required.

As someone mentioned earlier, there are dedicated study visa threads for major countries like Canada, the U.S, and the UK. You'll find that many of the services agents offer for a fee are things you can handle on your own by reading through these threads and doing some research.

All the best.

Hello, Good evening everyone.
I trust you’ll are doing well. Please I need your guidance in respect to a situation I am in.

So based on my research, I discovered that if you get a NOI from Ontario province, you’ll need to show the first and last pay slip for every work experience you claim you have. Now I want to use my NYSC to claim one year work experience. During my NYSC year, I didn’t get a PPA on time so going by the period I spent in my PPA, it means that I won’t be able to show the pay slip from PPA because the period isn’t a year duration it’s just 9months (keep in mind my PPA paid me). The other option I was thinking about is to use the 33k we were being paid as my salary for a year (reason being that there were also people who their PPA didn’t pay). So my plan is to now show the first and last pay slip using the 33k as salary (this will give me one year) My one year will from the month I went to camp till the month we did pop ( My PPA is willing to help me with that)

Please what would you suggest?

You don’t always need to present a payslip. Instead, you can print your bank statement and highlight the monthly salary deposits from your employer. Some individuals have used their NYSC experience to claim work experience points, so just ensure you get a reference letter that aligns with the NOC code you're using. People who have used NYSC experience can also chip in as I didn't use NYSC experience to claim points.

All the best.

Seems all jobs here require at least a Drivers License G. How do I go about it?

The info I'm seeing online is too ambiguous. I have a drivers license from Nigeria but due to expire in October this year. Do I also need to have a personal car to acquire this license?

Thanks.

Not all jobs require a driver’s license.

If a job does require a driver’s license, it doesn’t necessarily mean you need to own a car. Heard some companies provide work vehicles.

Additionally, owning a car is not a requirement to obtain a driver’s license.

Since the money is in naira, please add a bit more. The rates are still rising, so it’s better to include extra.

IF he can convert it to USD, I’d also recommend he does so, as the rates seem to keep increasing and that would mean more naira to be added. Once converted to dollars, you go just know say you no go dey fear as the rates dey fluctuate.

Please house
A friend had 24k cad pof when he got aor his pof was more than enough cus what he needed was 22500 cad.

Since his profile has not gotten fd yet, but now the worth of his 24k cad is now 23k cad.

Is it legal to top up the pof? If yes, does he have to raise webform and inform ircc or there is no need for that

Your friend still has more than the required 22,500 CAD, so there’s no problem at the moment.

If he's concerned about the amount decreasing further, he can always add more funds and submit a webform with a Letter of Explanation (LOE), bank reference letter, letter of non-indebtedness and bank statements attached.

Overall, I don’t see any issue here since he remains above the required amount.

Well, someone thinking of doing PR before will find it useful. The most shocking for me is the changing of the rule for SOWP for spouse of Masters programme. It must be 16 months (2 years) in length. Then the spouse applying for SOWP must also be in TEER 0 or 1 (Management or Professional) classification of employment or any employment in labour shortage. Canada don vex oh. This regime is trying too much to favour her citizens because of elections.

I used both forms, and this one appears to be the most up-to-date, as it has a "DATE MODIFIED: 2024-02-06" at the bottom of the page. In of response times, I've had experiences where I received a reply within an hour of ing a form, while other times it took over two weeks to get a response.

My question is: would this biometrics information be sent to my mail? Or is it only through sms? And can I just go to the office and do the biometrics on Monday?

I never received an SMS. I just buzzed one inspector Moshood, went to his office at Ikoyi (apongbon) and I did all that was required and got my certificate in my mail.

Why didn't you include your time living in the UK in your application?

According to IRCC, you must disclose any place you've lived for more than 6 months in the past 5 or 10 years (not sure).

Additionally, several countries, including the UK, share information with Canada. So, imagine the visa officer reviewing your application, conducting a background check, and finding out you stayed in the UK for over a year.

Spouse will reduce the score at any point you add them if they don't have ECA and English Test.
You can add a child at any point without reducing your score but spouse will.

I was under the impression that scores are locked after AOR, so adding my spouse afterward shouldn't affect my scores—assuming you got married after the AOR.
