Hello fellow Nigerians good to see us here. I sent my application on Tuesday 11th via nipost registered mail expecting delivery by next Friday as is 7 to 10 working days.
I have some experience with NSNP cos I applied for community identified stream which this new stream is replacing but was refused since i lack family connections or lived in d province before.
Avoid mailing them and asking frivolous questions, read ur guide and post on forums such as this.
WHAT TO EXPECT
*You get aor and file no within 2-6weeks but could be more bcos of d rush but don't panic and start mailing it will delay ur case more.
* if u re missing any doc Wait for ur file no and u can then u send it by mail quoting ur file no
* Decision wil be made on ur file around 4-6months but might be more now with d volume of RLMDS they received.
NSNP officers are very friendly and helpful but professional so don't expect too much.
I will advise u start researching d province, jobs,schools and houses incase they call u for interview.

Nova Scotia needs us forget all d assumptions about d cap of 150 they are all baseless.
Most important thing is prayer for favour
