Hi Basma

Congrats for receiving the nomination and Good Luck!

Can you please let me know how you received nomination? I mean, please clarify whether you received any email from NS stating your nomination or that they have directly updated in your CIC Express Entry Profile?
Thanks
Dear dchazer

I received an email from NS, and they updated my express entry profile with an invitation to accept or reject, then after acceptance they added the point to my EE profile.

Hi,

NSNP is a very slow immigration program. My application package was received by Halifax office on Jun 16, 2015 and they sent me AOR only yesterday.
It's worth mentioning that I applied for SINP on July 3, 2015 and yesterday (what a funny coincidence!!! ;D) I already got my passports back from visa office with visa stamp in there.

After the AOR and submission of document, what is the time frame for nomination?? can someone provide the duration for nomination, because some people got nomintated under 10 days after submission of documents while some took 30 to 60 days. This is all confusing. Anyone with an updated information bcos i noticed nomination has not been coming latetly or it has been rather slow.

Hello everyone,

Is there anyone who knows when the next express entry draw is due?

And when will the NSNP demand express entry stream re-open in 2016?

Thanks and regards,
Basma

During 2015 they almost maintained an interval of 3 weeks between each draw ... here's a reference of the previous rounds page http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/past-rounds.asp

However, beginning of 2016 in January they already made 3 draws .. the last one on January 27th >> http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/mi/index.asp?expand=mi-pr-express#mi-pr-express

Accordingly the next draw should be sometime before February 16th (my expectation).

Hi
Could you p lease help me clarify a few doubts for Nova Scotia PNP:

Funds requirement:
1. Is it so that we need to have the minimum required balance in the accounts/Deposits three months prior to applying like in the case of SINP? If I get the minimum required money transferred to my/spouse's account today and apply immediately (In case it is open) would that be fine?

2. Also is ULIP and Post Office Savings certificates valid?

3. Would the one shot transfer of funds by family members be OK for the purpose?


Appreciate your inputs, Thanks

I had the same issue with my bank statement; when i was asked for an updated bank statement by the NSNP I didn't have any money in my bank account. So I took money from a family member which was owed us and I deposited it one shot into my bank account and printed the bank statement the next day, and submitted it to NSNP. A few days later, the nominee officer asked about the sudden deposit and I explained it by a bank statement from my husband showing that such amount was withdrawn from my husband's bank account (which proves that the amount was originally belonging to my husband and given to the family member, then the family member gave it back to my account). They accepted this proof and nominated me.
So as long as you can prove that it is your money or your husband's money they can accept it.
