Hi Please i need urgent help

Got a letter from CIC that my application was refused cos my wife's police certificate was not uploaded. The process in Nigeria is terrible for obtaining it. I do have the certificate now. I was not given the chance to upload it.

Where do I go from here?
The process for obtaining it in Nigeria is pretty straightforward. Since you have already been refused, you have to re-enter the express entry pool and wait for the next draw,. Hopefully your CRS is high enough. All the best!
 
I can't be sure but you can try raising a CSE and request to reopen file and attach the new PCC. In the meantime can create a new profile and wait for ITA. All the best !!
 
Congrats. Can I ask you what do you mean waiting to send information? Do you mean they are waiting for you to send? I had the experience where the PPR email went only to my old lawyer who forwarded it to me which was peculiar. There was a RCMP request but it went to my email to check CIC and also had the lawyers email printed on it but i dont think they received it, only me. But PPR email only went to them.

Also once you get PPR you just need to send them your passports, visa photographs and a signed form with your address.
Call center person who picked up my call didn't use the term PPR or passport request. He just told that my application is already approved and I'll receive information from them soon with detailed instructions on what to do next. Also, I got to know that my file had both my old lawyer's mail id and my latest mail id which I provided in PR application. He said my old lawyer's mail ID is marked as expired and hence they will NOT send any correspondence to that ID. He asked me to wait till they send more information/instruction to my ID. I did receive PPR in my mail Inbox (not spam or promotions) the next day.

what was the status of background check at that time?
 
I've also been searching but they are in different threads. You would need to provide two pictures for each applicant, submit the passports and also fill in a form for the address. Then it would take about 2 weeks to get it back and I read the passports will have a visa it will come with a COPR (Confirmation of Permanent Residence) letter. You would then use this letter to do the 'landing' process. Immigration officer will then cancel the visa and the process of issuing a PR card will take place (supposedly 45days) mailed to a Canadian address. During that time you will not be allowed back into Canada unless you get a temporary PR travel visa from your home country. The above is assuming you are already in Canada.

Thank you for this. Does it really take two weeks to get back your passport? That makes me nervous lol.

Hi, so that means you already got your PPR email and can proceed to sending your passport(s)
