Thanks Bro Drajpoot, really appreciate yours and everyone's wishes and comments.
Please advise when is the best time to get my medicals. Do I need to get it done after getting ITA and before I submit my PR application to CIC or I can even do it after submitting PR application, once they ask me to do it Please share some tips bro for the process that I will come across.
Many thanks

Once you get ITA, get your medical done as you can not submit your PR application without Medical in Express Entry. So once you accept the ITA get your medical done. Please check the list of CIC authorized doctor as they will provide you copy of e medical which you need to upload along with your all documents. you would have 60 days to submit your application so Do not rush for anything make sure you upload all documents all your details thats it. Normally Doctors take normally 1 week to complete their process to make report ready for CIC.
Wish you all the best.

i am 4 august applicant i have still not received AOR , i called ns immigration office they told they cannot give any information on phone they will mail , one more thing after checking my application which i have send them i came to kwn that i have forgot to attached FIXED DEPOSIT CERTIFICATES , SO this may be reason i have not recevied aor and it may cause rejection. i want to ask one more question if my application is rejected they will mail me or returned my application pls let me kwn

If you read the guide carefully,
To be eligible to apply under this program you have to meet "eligibility criteria" and "Minimum Requirements" Both.
Eligibility Criteria:
You must come under one of two categories Either "Arranged Employment" OR "Paid work experience in opportunity Occupation"
You fulfil this criteria

Now we come to "Minimum requirements" So there are three requirements which you need to fulfil:
1- Meet minimum requirement: which says you must have 1 year experience, ECA, and IELTS

You are Ok with this

2- Obtain 67 points
You are Ok with this

3- Minimum Funds
You are ok with this but you said you forgot to submit documents to proof you have required funds
It will be "returned as incomplete" if it does not meet any of above things.

To reach in assessment stage application must fulfil the both "eligibility criteria" and all "three minimum requirements"
Once you pass both you get AOR.

Application gets "refused" or "rejected" only after the assessment stage

So in your situation technically as per the guide your application is incomplete and its clearly mentioned on Page16:
A. Eligibility and completion check After your application is received and subject to application volumes, NSOI will review your application to ensure that it is complete and meets eligibility criteria before it is accepted for assessment. If your application is not complete or if you do not meet basic eligibility requirements, your application may be returned.

In this case you are not supposed to get any rejection email or AOR, But I still believe that your application should accept if you send your POF documents when you replied of their preAOR mail.
Cause they will check your reply before they will start review your application and you are almost safe but if you forgot to send them your documents at that time too and you sent it any other day then chances are very less. Because Pre-AOR is kind of something NSOI looking information from your side BEFORE STARTING REVIEW and it was a golden chance for everyone to update missing info or documents who missed something in their application package.

Earlier NSOI was not checking any email communication of us if we missed something in application package or forgot to mention anything in application form

Hi friends
I am waiting when this program will start accepting new applications.
I am preparing my documents for this and have a question regarding proof of funds.
Can I show property documents on my husband's name or bank demand draft on my husband's name?
Or can I attach both documents as a proof of fund or Only One is enough?

Dear People in the house

Congratulations! The Province of Nova Scotia has notified Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) that they wish to nominate you; thus your nomination is currently pending. Please visit your MyCIC account for more information. You have 30 calendar days to accept your nomination from Nova Scotia in your MyCIC account.

Please follow-up with me when you have accepted your nomination. Following your acceptance, a copy of your Certificate of Nomination will be forwarded to you via email. Please ensure your NOC code in your Express Entry profile matches that on your certificate.

If you are offered the opportunity to apply for Permanent Resident status in Canada, please notify me.

This is what I have received just now so thought to share with all of you.
They have started to give nominations. I have accepted the nomination message in my CIC profile and my profile should be updated with 600 points within 24 Hours and in the mean time they will also send me the nomination certificate. I have also intimated the Nominee officer that I have accepted it and would like to know when should I expect to receive my certificate.
Any idea when the next draw will happen.

Good luck guys and thanks for all help and prayers.
I will keep you all posted.

Regards

Congrats fasqi.....

The funds must be in your name or in the name of your accompanying spouse. These funds must be unencumbered by debts or obligations (i.e., not real estate), transferable and available to you. These funds cannot be borrowed. These funds could be in the form of:
 Cash  Documents that show property or capital payable to you (such as stocks, bonds, debentures, treasury bills, etc.) or  Documents that guarantee payment of a set amount of money, which are payable to you (such as bankers’ drafts, cheques, travellers’ cheques or money orders)

Hi D,
So does it mean that the candidate has to update NS within 5 business days as said in pre-aor. What if a candidate replies after those 5 days and update them with POF.

 

[runaway982]

I have one question. Namely, my POF is In euro because euro is the most reliable currency in my country. Should I convert my money or it's OK to send them bank statement in euro currency?

 

[Haadiya]

Thanks Everyone for all your wishes, I thank Almighty for all this blessings and wonders.
Yes my 600 points has already been added in my CIC account and it seems that they have fixed the glitches that previous applicants have faced.
I wish everyone all the very best for the AOR, Nominations, ITA and Visa processed finally.
I will keep everyone posted with all future updates.

Best Regards

Congratulations Faqsi. Hoping my nomination will come in soon to. All the best
