Hello @legalfalcon

I inquired through MP office and they said that NDV finalized my wife's assessment on March 24th, she's the applicant.
Further they said that it appears all the requirements are met and an officer will do a review and render final decision.
Her security, criminality are also done.
Till now we have not received PA, PPR or DM.
Any idea why how long more it might take.

Dear Legal Falcon,
I'm post AoR waiting for decision on my PR application (outland). I will like to pursue further studies in Canada immediately upon arrival to improve my employability. Is it adviseable to start the application before PPR? Will my admission pop-up in background search and will this affect my chances of getting a PR?
Thank you for your kind contributions, you're affecting lives positively more than you can imagine. I look forward to your response.

You can apply to colleges even before PPR and it will have no impact on your PR application. However, make sure that when you apply, you will have to apply as an international student. Even after you get the PPR, you do not become a PR, unless you land in Canada and are admitted.

I can't give you a time frame, but as per what the MP office informed you, you seem to be at the final stage.

it can be a few more weeks at the most

@legalfalcon Thanks for being of great help on here. I need your help too.

Here's the background and summary of what happened;

Because SouthAfrica issues only 3 months visitors visa to Nigerians, an agent said he could help me obtain a 1yr visa if applied from Ghana and that all I'd need is just to drop my passport. As I was younger and vulnerable, I agreed, paid him the charge and gave him my passport. Weeks later, he returned my passport with the 1yr visa on it. I noticed some stamps on it that shows entry into Ghana and another like a resident permit in Ghana. I believe they needed to put those to be able to apply from Ghana and I didn't think much of it. This was in 2011.

Fast forward to a year after, I applied for UK tourist visa through a different travel agent and was granted. Visited and returned. When the visa expired, I applied for a renewal and was granted 2yrs visa, but when I got to UK airport, the immigration officer saw the Ghana stamps and told me they're fake and that I've never been to Ghana. I claimed I've been to Ghana but eventually I could not defend the stamps and admitted I've never been to Ghana before. The travel agent used my passport to fill the application form and he just listed all the country stamps he saw on the passport under my Travel History. So because Ghana was listed in the visa application as one of the countries I've visited, I was told I misrepresented information in my application, therefore visa was cancelled and entry denied. I was returned to Nigeria the following day.

With a new passport, I applied for Canada TRV in 2014 and 2015 and both approved. This UK denied entry was not mentioned in either of the applications as I thought the statutory questions were referring to just Canada, so I picked NO. Now I want to apply for Canada PR through the express entry and I want to make sure to correct this mistake and mention the denied entry but I really don't know if that's good enough.

What effects can this have on my PR application?
Can they charge me for misrepresentation in previous TRV applications even though there's no misrepresentation in this PR application?
How best can I address this situation?

Please seniors, your invaluable advice is needed. Thanks.

This will not have any impact on your PR application as long as you disclose that your UK visa was once cancelled.

@legalfalcon : Hello Lagalfalcon, I came across your numerous helpful posts on Canadavisa and would like to ask a pressing question: I am in Canada on a visitor visa but recently received an Express Entry ITA. Can I submit a full PR application while still here or do I have to go back to my country of origin in order to do so? Thanks a lot in advance

You can submit your application from Canada, as long as you are in a valid status.

Hey @legalfalcon

Sir, i am a 24 oct AOR. As per my last gcms notes eligibility - met , medical - pass, Criminality & Security - not started and info sharing was complete.

Sir i called cic agents and they narrated the same status to me again.. What should i do to initiate the process.

Its like the officer has not touched my file since December.

Please advise as 70% of Oct batch has already received their passport request.......

Is the eligibility passed by an analyst or an officer, because of your eligibility was passed, then the security should have started immediately.

Have you requested GCMS notes to check and verify?

 

[legalfalcon]

@legalfalcon Although I uploaded the required documents they requested and it shows replacement provided, the status still we need additional documents to continue processing your application, is this normal?

Yes, it takes a few weeks for the documents to be aded to your file and the update to happen.

Hi Everyone !!
I ordered GCMS notes in which I get this below:

"Client did not meet MEC as they did not provide enough evidence of atleast 1 year work experience in the required primary NOC. No duties provided on the employment letters"

I had submitted my application without any referenece letter,as I could not get those while applying .....what should I do??

You have to send reference letters with job duties.

a reference or experience letter from the employer, which

• should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
• should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits

You can send this now via CSE and see if it is considered.

Hi ladies and gentlemen,

Quick question: is it a positive sign that my application has moved to my local visa office? Received the email yesterday from IRCC that my application is now with Pretoria VO...I don't know when it moved to PTA VO though...

Thank you

Much appreciated

Yes, the LVO issues the PPR.

 

[legalfalcon]

I received a request letter from London vo asking me - among other things- to send pcc for countries where I reside in for six months or longer since I submitted my application .
Would you please tell what they mean by that .. I will complete six months tomorrow.. my AOR 2 Nov

Can you please copy and paste the exact language.

 

[legalfalcon]

Dear @legalfalcon , thank you very much for everything you do in this forum.
My AOR was October 9th and I got RPRF request on April 6th (after almost 6 months from AOR). The letter for RPRF request stated that my admissibility was in progress. Does this mean that my eligibility is passed?
I had 3 ghost updates: 1st on November 9th next day after medicals passed; 2nd on March 5th (I called CIC later and asked about this ghost update and the agent told me that SOME background verifications were made and eligibility was in progress); 3rd ghost update was on April 5th (next day I received the RPRF request).
Do you know why I had so many ghost updates? I am very worried that it has already been 24 days after I paid RPRF and I still have no news.
Please share your thoughts about this. I appreciate your help very much!

When a RPRF request is sent, usually the eligibility is pretty much done. But to be sure, you need to see your GCMS notes.

@legalfalcon:- Hello Sir, You are very supportive and give your best views to everyone. I also have something to ask you on my PPR application.

 

[Sandy@1]

Funds appears met. If you wish i can share my summary Notes with you. Lots of hope with your reply. Thanks in advance.

@legalfalcon Thank you for all your help on this platform. I am a PR card holder and my husband would like to immigrate via Express Entry.

When asked about whether I would be accompanying him to Canada we selected yes as I am leaving Canada to be with him during the application process, and will accompany him to Canada. This gives him 15 extra points as my brother is also a PR.

However, the application lists me as a dependent and it's my understanding that we will be asked to pay application fees for both of us, which makes no sense since I am a Permanent Resident.

I have 2 questions:
1) Would you suggest I select yes or no for accompanying spouse?
2) If no, Can my husband say he has a brother who is a PR even though he is technically his brother in law?

Thank you
