Non-Express Entry(PNP) Online Applications Gather here

[bvprajesh]

I have a dobut, Application submitted 10 march 2022 and AOR on 10 August 2022, and Application linked online 11 August 2022 and online shows date received 11 August 2022, so my question is the application process started on 11 august 2022 or will IRCC consider 10 march 2022 the date we submitted Application.
Because after linking the application, there is no update from IRCC

I don't think it's even possible in most countries to get a passport in 2 weeks.

What I would do is apply for it straight away and ask the passport office to fast track it. Make sure you keep your receipts and evidence that you applied for your passport and include this in a letter of explanation to IRCC. As long as you're trying hard to get it done they will likely give you more time.

In response to your request for additional documents which is new passport/travel documents, we have contacted the immigration office (Nigeria Immigration office) and was told that we cannot be issued a new passport within the next 15 days. We have started the process of renew our passports but it will take 10 weeks. Please see the attached documentation for processing of a new passport which involves the capturing date and re-issuance details.

If visa can be processed using the current passports on file we will appreciate it and would be leaving Nigeria for Canada to land as soon as possible. Moreover, we never intended we will still be in Nigeria by now and would ensure we come along with the new passports.

Please advice.

Thank you for your anticipated response.

**That's what the content Letter of Explanation sent to IRCC on Friday.

It starts from the Date you application is received at CPC and when they stamp your application. So in your case is 10th March but 11 August is that they checked your application for completeness and Acknowledged the receipt.

No you won't. You will have the biggest celebration of your life and you will know how to appreciate and enjoy the benefits of PR/citizenship better than many Canadians do.

Remind me again, what's your timeline? I'm AR 8 March & AOR 3 October (SINP Non-EE PNP stream).

Thanks, I know what you mean. My timeline so far is:

OINP inland
AR - 26 Nov 2021

Long journey but got my PR approved 2 days ago! Just need to confirm it in the PR portal to get my card. You can see my history in my signature.

Congratulations!

Send that message along with the receipt you paid for passport fees and any other evidence showing that you went to the passport office in a letter. That's the best you can do. Did you have to get a ticket when you went to the passport office? You know how you pull at ticket that says "155" (and then they call "155! We ready for you). Show them that if you have it.

Yes, and that is a major issue, I think. When IRCC processes applications haphazardly it makes us wonder whether there are issues with our application or if they are just being delayed for IRCC's convenience. They should be transparent in their policy on application processing. I hope you get your AOR soon, I know the wait is crazy.

Is there anyone who applied for open work permit using temporary file number?

i think you have to wait until you have AOR before you can apply for an open work permit. I may be mistaken though

 

[Miss bee]

You can’t apply with temporary Aor . You need actual AOR. However if you don’t have any option, you can submit Letter of explanation that you have temporary AOR and actually waiting. This may work or maybe not .

Hi All,

I have received my nomination from the ONIP master grad stream.

I have a couple of questions and hopefully, some of you may have an answer.

With my nomination, I have to apply for Nonexpress entry ( since I cannot use it for express entry ) and the processing time is at least 24 months, does it actually take that long? Can I apply for a refund?

I am also in the pool for CEC and my point is 470. Should I wait for it to come down ( it is around 500) or Should I go with a Non-express entry?

Any advice is very much appreciated.

Thanks and good luck

Hello - This is very strange. I am puzzled as to why they would want employment letters from you when your application is based on your Ph.D. and not your job. Does not make sense. I received an MR on October 7th but no other requests. Maybe they will request all of this from me too, but they appear not to have gotten to that stage yet. Also, I never submitted a letter of employment since they did not ask for it in the original application, did you? Please keep us updated.

Yes, it is quite unreasonable as the main requirement is my degree and not the job offer/letter of employment. Although I had a permanent job offer at the time of application which I submitted, they requested an "updated letter of employment" and payslips!

Go with what you have in hand alright now. You never know what happens later or with the upcoming changes. Yes, processing time for non-EE is 24~25 months, however it depends from profile to profile.. if you're following this thread, you will know that there some folks who got their PR in 14~15 months and there some who are still waiting to get.

If you were at 485 or say 490~ or above, then its different story.. coz there aren't much app between 490 to 500 (unless ppl create before draw who are completing their studies or work anniversary to gain points) but at 470 and you know the number application in queue for that range of CRS is high, it can take time to clear. So the free internet advice is don't wait, keep going with what you have.
