FSW 2014 applicants from Nigeria - Let's network

[DeeBruv]

Hi DeeBruv, many applicants including from other VOs have reported this. Apparently, it is a new administrative process with the VOs but surely means your files are currently being processed. It's nothing to worry about but a rather a call to intensify your prayers, God will surely show up for you all, amen

thanks Pipis husband

Hi Pipis Husband, may I tap from your wealth of experience?


A Canadian friend of mine just reminded me I will need to have my spouse's credential evaluated by any of the evaluation bodies designated by CIC, considering that she will have to work also when we get to Canada. As the principal applicant, I used WES for my evaluation, and specifically the fswp evaluation package. On WES site, there are different evaluation packages (for students, for immigrants, for job seekers, for employers, for educators, for professional licensing).

Which evaluation package in your opinion would be best for my spouse who is not the principal applicant, but who is a worker and a job seeker accompanying me the principal applicant? Remember we used the fswp package which was the required option for all principal applicants.

My advice to all principal applicants and correct me if I am wrong, is, it will be easier for us to have our spouses' credentials evaluated while we still dey naija because, imagine contacting any of the Nigerian Universities/Polytechnics from outside to help you process/or authenticate a credential. I do not know what your experiences were, but I experienced hell trying to get my credential evaluated here in Nigeria(despite going down to the campus in person and all the sorting one had to do).

I hope this will help all of us as we navigate into Canada and my prayer is, that we all experience a stressless job/career pursuite.

Hi All,

Quick question please:

In the "Additional Family Information" forms, I inadvertently made some typo errors in the DOB of two of my wife's siblings and completely omitted the details of one of my siblings.

Can I use the CSE form from AVO website to inform them about these omissions and request the necessary changes?

NOC - 2241
App. Received - Dec. 5, 2014
DD - Jan. 29, 2015
PER - Feb. 26, 2015

Will appreciate any useful feedback.

People!!!!!...I need all the assistance in the world now o..cos this cant be happening
, I am going to post below the mail I recieved from AVO on friday the 6th of march...Pls go through and tell me what you think I can do:



I have now completed the assessment of your application and I have determined that you do not meet the requirements of Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.

Subsection 16(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act states that a person who makes an application must answer truthfully all questions put to them for the purpose of the examination and must produce a visa and all relevant evidence and documents that the officer reasonably requires.

You were asked in a letter sent on November 20, 2014 to provide evidence that you had available funds in order to immigrate to Canada. This letter informed you that your application would be assessed on the basis of the information that was already before the officer and we also gave you the opportunity to respond to our concerns. I have received the requested proofs of funds and I have determined that you are not eligible to Canada as a foreign national by virtue of the fact that you do not meet the Financial requirements necessary for a family of 4 persons ($22, 170) as outlined in section R76(1)(b) of the Immigration Refugee Protection Act and the Regulations:

The skilled worker must

(i) have in the form of transferable and available funds, unencumbered by debts or other obligations, an amount equal to one half of the minimum necessary income applicable in respect of the group of persons consisting of the skilled worker and their family members, or
(ii) be awarded points under paragraph 82(2)(a), (b) or (d) for arranged employment, as defined in subsection 82(1), in Canada.

Your bank statements indicate large deposits which are considered questionable and do not reflect your regular income and savings you would have made over the past 3 years. I am not satisfied all those funds belong to you.
Subsection 11(1) of the Act provides that a foreign national must, before entering Canada, apply to an officer for a visa or any other document required by the regulations. The visa or document shall be issued if, following an examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the requirements of this Act.

Based on the information that is available, I am not satisfied that you meet all the requirements under the Federal Skilled Workers Class and I am therefore refusing your application.


Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada.

Sincerely,


Immigration Officer

This is really tough. If possible, can you post the letter you sent to them here so that people can read it to give their opinions. For a period of 3 years that they have mentioned must be the period you have being working and probably feel that with the documentation that you have submitted, you could not have had such a money. Kindly post here and let us reason together.

Hi Gofame,

My bit is this: the immigration officers are more concerned about 'source of inflow' rather than the inflow itself.

Ensure you provide a letter detailing your current gross earnings as well as monthly payslips. This covers your regular source of income.

Per the large deposits....you must provide irrefutable evidence to show sale of property. Also, ensure you have documents to prove you were the initially owner of the property, sale receipts and possibly details of all related sale transactions. Do you have correspondences between yourself and the buyer? Include them.

Please do not be in a hurry to respond to AVO. You must try and reason like them and provide all required documents to make your point, but nsure you respond to them within the time frame. Remember: physical evidence of property ownership, correspondence between yourself and the buyer, sales receipts, corresponding bank entries, etc.

I hope this helps a bit.

Amen My brother, I have already prepared a detailed step by step explanation to resend to them...Pls people pray with me o....
