NOVA SCOTIA Provincial Nominee Program January 2015
- Thread starter missycreampop22
- Start date
We only know that NS Demand has given around 310 nominations so far. As the 650 nominations are shared between NS Demand and Experience, we don't know how many are left. NS officers may tell if asked politely, but it is unlikely.sanjeev31aug said:
Hi everyone, I submmited my documents yesterday and paid for my application, and received AOR, checked all messages and everything. But today I received an email saying that my account has been updated, but when I checked, everything was the same. What does this mean? what else should I check besides messages, status, etc?
Thanks all
Thanks all
According to the recent update on the NS Demand PNP, NS has received additional spaces and now the cap has increased to 1350. Please see the following statement.sanjeev31aug said:
"The move will allow Nova Scotia to nominate 1,350 immigrants under the Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP) in 2015."
Fingers crossed
My EE profile expires on 10th Jan. I am about to submit additional documents to NSOI. Just wanted to know if it a good idea to create a new EE profile and sending it over so that I don't have to risk the hassle of transferrring stuff between profiles incase the profile expires before the process completes.
What do you guys think ?

Well. You can create a new profile and send details about your new profiles along with the additional documents to NS.kaussa said:
I could be wrong! Could someone else confirm if this can be done?
This is the total nominations available to NS, including those out of EE. Only 650 are available to both EE streams.Inno77 said:According to the recent update on the NS Demand PNP, NS has received additional spaces and now the cap has increased to 1350. Please see the following statement.

I'm posting my question on this page again since it was the last one on the previous page and don't know if anyone saw it.
Hi everyone, I submmited my documents yesterday and paid for my application, and received AOR, read all messages and everything. But today I received an email saying that my account has been updated, but when I checked, everything was the same. What does this mean? what else should I check besides messages, status, etc?

I'm 99% certain you won't get nomination in this year (and 90% certain I won't, as I'm a September applicant). But I believe you shall get your AOR between April and June 2016.Inno77 said:
Yes. This is the same issue with me. My EE profile is going to expire on the 2nd of January 2016. I got the AOR from NS, now waiting for nomination. Should I create a new express entry profile now?kaussa said:
Also, what happens if I get nomination and I accept it, but my EE profile expires before the draw takes place? Will the nomination be transferred to the new EE profile( If I create one)?
Thanks in Advance
You can't be 100% sure. I believe you are basing that assumption on the current 8 months waiting. You must understand that 8 months is not the processing time. Actually, processing occurs usually in less than a month, which is the typical time past between AOR and nomination. The remaining months are the time necessary to process the applicants who come before you in the queue. And here is the first misconception: there are far more applicants from January and February than the rest of the year. Therefore, waiting times increased constantly while NSOI was processing those applicants. Now that they have reached March applications, the waiting time remained constant. As they should start processing April applications beginning next week, the waiting time will suddenly drop to 7 months. I wouldn't be surprised if they start giving AORs to May applicants as early as mid-December.Paulosky said:
While the SS is far from containing all applicants, its current sample rate is around 37%. And that sample, instead of decreasing over time, has increased from less than 30% for January applicants. Currently, I believe the total nominations available this year to NS Demand are between 350-400, but it is even possible that they surpass the 450 mark. So, there must be at least some 40 nominations remaining, but that number might reach even 150. As there are around 60 applicants between the last user to report a nomination number and my position on the SS, there is a considerable possibility if the sample continues to raise.
Obviously, I think it is unlikely for the sample to reach higher figures, such as 50% or more. Still, there is another variable into play: at least 4 applicants, so far, have declined NS nominations, as they have already received from Saskatchewan. Those 4 are the ones who reported their intent to decline here. As most applicants had very little hope of receiving nomination from NS when SK first opened their EE stream, many others might have followed their path, as well as there must be a significant portion that applied to Ontario. It is not exaggerate to estimate that at least 20% of NS applicants have applied to one of those provinces. Some might have even received ITAs directly, as the cutoff dropped 3 more points since April.
Therefore, even though I do believe it is very hard for any post-June applicant to receive AOR this year, no one can be 100% sure.
