Hi Prettiepearlz, I you were considering the student route at some point earlier this year, did you later proceed with it or you've decided to wait for the draws to resume, since it's certain it'll be back in July.? Me, I'm quite confused right now but this year is our year I believe!

You are right! As we speak I have four issions but I would most likely defer my ission because as it is right now my port will expire on the 31st of May and I want to apply for the 10 years port so I don’t have to worry about these folks for the next 10 years of my life. Also the July news is one to look forward to.

Prettiepearlz:

My sister, Ontario is a good province, you can always change provinces later when you become a citizen. And besides there are high chances of you getting a nomination certification before July. Ontario would have responded to you before then. Just remain strong sis. This year is our year!

Thank you sis..Amen o..it is our year

icehot:


Yes, after ITA, submit documents and you receive AOR. It's a response that they have received your application, and it's usually the same day you send it in.

thank you

Oh, that's great. You have a lot of options already which makes it even better, btw, there's still enough time from now till July to make important decisions... I already took the study route, my decision should come in hopefully before or by next month but I'll still keep up with my PR pursuit regardless. Wish you all the best in this journey. It will end in praise!

When they say above 500, does it mean 520, 530 because by July the people above 500 in the pool may be up to 12 or 15,000.

Already did Tef, have 2 certs and I'm on 496. Maxed ielts too so nothing else to increase the score. God no go shame us o

Good day everyone,I am about to do my evaluation,I intend using CES for my LLB evaluation,I want to know if I can also it for my husband who has a degree in psychology? Is it possible to send our transcript together or do it differently and pay differently?

Finally got RFV email a few days ago.

March 2020: Entered the pool; lockdown started few days or so after and FSW draws stopped

September 2020: ITA received; literally a few weeks before I would lose points due to age and fall below the CRS cut-off at the time, so I was very lucky.

December 2020: AOR received

Then the long silence....

May 2021: Ordered GCMS notes and got them in June 2021. Ottawa VO, eligibility ed, info-sharing started, every other thing not started.

Another long silence.... decided not to pay anymore attention to IRCC for my mental health

March 2022: Saw things had picked up when my friend who got AOR in the same month as I did, informed me they got RFV email. I ordered GCMS notes again. Days later IRCC ed me...

March 2022: ADR received - Updated POF, Schedule A, PCC, Re-medical.
POF was a bit of a surprise ADR as I had ed eligibility in June 2021, according to the GCMS notes. Had to run around a bit for it, but every other ADR was straight forward. Submitted all ADR within two weeks.

April 2022: RFV email received. New GCMS notes haven't even arrived, so they can keep it

Thank you to all of you guys. This forum has been very valuable with reasonable, insightful and measured answers to all my questions. Special thanks to @GraciousWords, @tshtsh, @MrPein.

Just wanted to update that I decided to go with a sales deed of an asset I own and a good LOE. My profile has now been updated to "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information" so I'm guessing I have ed the POF check. Hopefully!!!!

None…my friend paid through gtbank here. International transfer but bear in mind that they may not have exact rates so use online rates and add extra for fluctuation buffer.

Thanks

Good evening,
Thinking of using Lagos VFS but I cant seem to find the biometrics confirmation slip (biometrics was done ins 2018 for a visiting visa). What can i do please. thank you.

Hi. Send Lagos Vfs an email or call to know what they'd advise. But my guess is that you'd have to pay transmission fees.

Congratulations. More wins.

Please I need help! Did upfront medicals on March 18th and ed the emedical printout using webform. Got request for remedicals on the 8th of April and I don’t know what to do now. I have tried calling targeting the exact time they open but have not been able to get through. It’s been over a month of the and no news

If there’s a placeholder, the e medicals sheet there. If not, visit the hospital and have them resend your medicals using the request ircc gave you. Nothing to worry about really. Was it IoM or Qlife?

I don’t know how fast CES is with evaluation but lawyers don’t have a choice than to use CES or IQAS that gives them evaluation result equivalent to a professional degree but your husband can evaluate with WES. They are faster. Furthermore, I don’t think you can evaluate your transcripts together because you are both Mr. and Mrs. You both have to create different s, pay differently and evaluate separately.

Congratulations! I am so happy for you. Glad you overcame the worrisome ADR. I wish you all the best and may the land favour you and yours.

Good day and congratulations to everyone who have gotten PPR.

Please I would like to know ..If a male applicant gets married after AOR, does the female have do a new port to change her last name on her existing port to the man's last name before she can do medicals and PCC ? Or can she use her existing port. Does IRCC need to see port with same last names.

Thanks in advance for you response

The female doesn’t have to do anything with her name or change any documents. Opting to change is a personal preference, there is no law/ regulation requiring it. It’s even illegal in some places. IRCC certainly doesn’t care, a marriage certificate is all that’s needed.

Source? I’m married, didn’t change my name and I’m a PR

I did it in UK. I called the clinic but they said they could not do anything. They had already ed it at that point. Thank you. I’ll just wait

Any help on the best way to pay for WES and CES? Can I use my bank ? Or is there any app I can you? Thanks

Hello Everyone,

Thanks

Unless you have a dollar or foreign card to pay with, your best option might be barter by flutterwave. Their rates are not exactly friendly tbh

Just got RFV mail about an hour ago. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
AOR Jan 2020. The long wait is almost over and the feeling is overwhelming right now. Don't expect the gist now o, it's possible my story won't even be coherent.

Congratulations sis! 26 months.......

Please is there any one who got ADR to submit employment contract and proof of income for a job they didn't claim point for but was just mentioned in personal history?
