Dear Drajppot and Senior Members of the house,
I just registered in the forum last week, I have been monitoring the trend of activities ongoing in the forum since June when I received Pre AOR from NS. I am contacting the experts in the house because I need an advice on my present situation.
Thanks for joining the forum, I hope your details are in excel sheets if not please fill entry form
I applied for MSc programme in Manitoba in 2015 and I got the admission with full funding, I also got my visa in November 2105 but I deferred the admission till Fall (September 2016), I will be traveling to Manitoba by August 29th. At the same time last year, I applied to NS Demand Stream since it was the only provincial programme available then.
My submitted the application together with my wife having to do IELTS as well to give me 5 more points in the adaptability section. My EE profile got expired in April 18, 2015 because it was already I year but my IELTS was still valid. I got a pre-AoR mail from NS on June 6th, 2016 and responded that I have not received any nomination from another province/IRCC.
My IELTS expired in July 2016 and I registered for another test in August 4th, which the result is now out and I passed it (L:7.5, W:7, S:7, R:6.5) my wife IELTS is still vaild.
While waiting for NS to respond with an AOR in october since applications are treated 1 year from the time it is receive as it is presently ongoing in the list/trend shared by members, I need some advice in some areas.
1, Will my study in Manitoba affects my provincial nominee programme in NS. (Are they different platform or routes entirely)
YES, Nominee officer will ask you that why dint you chose Nova scotia for your MSc program, if you want to move and settle in Nova Scotia and also your details(if you show any frds and relative in Manitoba) in your previous application for Study visa may create doubts for your real intention to settle in Nova Scotia. SO make yourself ready to satisfy the officer and justify your situation.
2, When NS will sends a Pre-AOR, do I need to inform Nominee officer of my present situation because I am thinking the might feel reluctant to nominate me once I am already in another province.
You dint get PreAOR ?
3, When submitting PR application to CIC, do I need to update my present address in Manitoba in the forms as I know that IRCC may know that I have entered Manitoba in August.
Of course Yes, when you will submit your PR application you have to provide your present address and according to which CIC will decide your processing center and you would be consider as inland applicant cause you would be inside canada at that time.
Please make a note that do not try to hide any details while submitting your application to CIC, specially when you already applied for any kind of Canada visa cause your they have already generated UCI for your passport and date of birth.
I really need your responses to my case as I am just trying to do my possible best to have all my docs available when NS responds with AOR, that was why I took another IELTS exam.
