Step 3:
Press 2 to connect to ircc

Step 4: after connection to ircc, you would listen to a message for about 30 seconds just be patient till they tell you the buttons to press.

Although when you connect to the client call center agent he/she will ask you to provide your application details which includes application number, uci number and other relevant information.

JOURNEY EPISTLE
My journey started in Dec 2017 when I wrote the IELTS. I have taken 2 months earlier to prepare for the exam and luckily for me it paid off as I maxed out the result in one single attempt (L9, R9, S 7.5, W 7.5). My spouse was not so lucky as she had to write IELTS 3times before finally giving up the attempt to improve on her reading score especially ( L 7.5, R 5.5, S 7.5, W 6.5). In one of the attempts she applied for re-mark. Her Writing score bumped up by 0.5 hence she got a refund of the N15,000 re-mark fees but the reading score remained notoriously at 5.5 .

Next bus stop was the ECA, which started simultaneously with IELTS in Dec 2017. We both use WES for ECA. Spouse assessed her Master's degree with WES and by Jan 2018 it was ready. I on the other hand have ND, HND and PGD to claim 2 or more degrees, so I decided to assessed HND and PGD. Later I realized that I should have just assessed my ND and HND. This mistake cost me additional N50K in transcripts and logistics fees and 3 months in time extension. WES started the assessment of HND and PGD and after 3 months requested for ND transcripts and certificate to conclude the assessment of the HND, so I ended up assessing all the three degrees. This delay meant my WES report was not ready until April 2018.

April 2018, I dived into the pool with 421 points. I swam in the pool for a whole year and even became an Olympic champion in the pool but no ITA. With my birthday approaching in January, I decided to start learning French in Nov 2018 to compensate for the 5point loss on my approaching birthday though I must confess that learning French sounded like learning Greek in my ears. April 2019, I was notified of profile expiration and I quickly created another profile 2 days after expiration of the first profile. For inexplicably reason, my CRS points dropped to 414 points instead of 416 points. I doubled checked and tripled checked but I could not figure out why, so I lost 7 points for my birthday instead of 5points. (In Hindsight now, I think the other 2 points loss may be for my spouse birthday)

Good thing I created a new profile as Alberta came calling with their Notification of Interest (NOI) in May 2019. Basic criteria was mainly newly created profiles as people with CRS as low as 330 also got their NOIs in May of 2019. We packaged the documents required and sent to them. They did a thorough job in checking on all documents submitted, ed my office to my reference and work experience. Spouse IELTS TRF was somehow omitted while packaging the documents, but Alberta graciously notify me of this omission and allowed me to send a scan copy by email instead of having to send by courier as required. By the end of July 2019 Alberta Nomination Certificate came in without spending a dime other than the cost of sending our documents through courier. I was elated, I accepted immediately and felt giddy when my CRS flew to 1014 points.

I stopped learning or is it pretending to learn French instantly . After a little over 6 months of learning French at Alliance Française, I find myself terribly unqualified and unprepared to attempt TEF due to no fault of Alliance Francaise (as they have very many excellent instructors and robust curriculum) but due to my dullness to grasp a new language fast. I spent no less than 150K on this French adventure but I do not regret it a bit as I improve on my residual knowledge of the language and became very confident to intervene in my children primary school/beginners French studies as the French expert of our family.

The next draw was on Aug 12, 2019 and I clinched ITA, I took a week to arrange my documents and by Aug 19, 2019 I submitted and got AOR same day. The family did upfront medicals in July 2019 and MEP was obtained in Aug 2019. Biometrics was completed by Sept 2019. Everything seems to be in cruise control and I was already dreaming of PPR in Dec 2019 or worst case scenario as my birthday gift in Jan 2020.

Interestingly in Oct 2019, Saskatchewan Nomination of Interest came in and I was informed I have up to Dec 16, 2019 to Accept or it will expire but since I have already accepted Alberta NOI, I could not take up the offer. I was secretly praying that PPR or even rejection comes before Dec 16 2019 so that I can take up Saskatchewan NOI offer before it expires, even though I prefer Alberta to Saskatchewan and its NOI application process will cost 300CAD unlike Alberta NOI that was free of charge.

Out of curiosity, I ordered the first GCMS notes in Dec 2019, I discovered that my file was moved to the notorious Accra Visa Office (AVO) after initial processing at CIO in Ottawa. I immediately started weaning myself mentally off the process but wifey was becoming emotionally and mentally attached and agitated as the process dragged on. By Feb 2020, AOR clocked 6 months but no PPR, By this time our IELTS results had expired, Alberta Nomination certificate had expired (it had validity of 6months) and Saskatchewan NOI too had expired, so any problem with the application at this time will mean going back to re-write IELTS and ing the pool to initiate the whole process all over again. A very scary thought to contemplate.

COVID19 global pandemic heightened in March 2020 and IRCC started sending delay emails to applicant as a result of COVID 19, I waited till July 2020 and ordered the 2nd GCMS, notes, Medical ed since Aug 2019, Biometrics Completed since Sept 2019 but Review Required (RR) on Eligibility while Security and Criminality yet to start. The case analyst mentioned that my reference letter had the same JD for the two companies submitted and was 100% similar to my NOC as stated on IRCC website. This was a mistake on my part as I copied the JD for my NOC on IRCC website (since I carried out all these functions and more at work anyway) and added a few more before getting my current Manager (Paddy of life) and former HR (Another paddy of life) to put on the company letter head and sign off on it.

At this point there was nothing to be done but to wait it out. I waited and waited but long silence. sometime in Aug 2020 and Sep 2020, I noticed a flurry of ghost updates (GU) so I ordered the 3rd GCMS notes in Oct 2020. I discovered my files was moved to Hong Kong at some point and then to Beijing, and to then to Shanghai. My LinkedIn profile was checked around this time as well. Eligibility has moved to Recommend Interview (RI), Medical expired July 2020. Criminality and Security yet to start.
I emailed over 10 MPs to check my application update and why it is taking such a long time. only 2 or 3 replied saying they won't be able to help giving one excuse or the other. it is either I am not living in province they represent, not in Canada or their office has been inundated with similar requests and they are now overwhelmed to assist again.

I ed Qlife to pick a date for Re-medical, I was told the earliest date is Nov 19 2020, so I booked. Nov 19 2020 came, but I did not go as I start seeing that people were getting medical extension. Flurry of GUs was noticed again and on Nov 27, 2020 I got medical extension as well saving me well over N120K for re-med. At this stage my wife was checking our profile at an average of 7times daily and raising web-form weekly. People were speculating that PPR should come latest 2 weeks after medical extension but no PPR. On Dec 14, another web-form was raised to Hong Kong (Secondary VO) and Accra (Primary VO). Hong Kong replied that our profile had been approved and that we should have received port Request letter. Accra of course did not reply as they hardly ever reply web-form nor can you reach them by Phone.

I was happy and angry at the same time. Why is AVO being wicked like this?. Hong Kong had cleared Review required and Recommend Interview yet AVO is still sitting pretty on my PPR. I copied Hong Kong VO mail stating that my application had been approved and send another webform to them, AVO and copied CIO. 2 days later on Dec 17 PPR mail dropped by AVO in my mail around 2am. On checking the letter I saw the PPR mail was dated Dec 11 2020 but AVO decided to sit on it, but for Hong Kong who exposed them, only God knows how long AVO would have sat on the PPR.
The next day I packaged the required documents with ports, got a UK friend to assist in paying for VFS transmission fees in Pounds Sterling while I refund in Naira then couriered the documents to London UK for COPR (I can't deal with the wickedness of AVO any longer )

It was a very long roller coaster journey but we thank God it ended in praise. Awaiting port return from London. From AOR to PPR took 16months (1 year 4 months), it was mentally draining but well worth it at the end. I appreciate everyone on this forum and the plethora of Whatsapp Groups that my spouse belongs to (I refused to any WhatSapp Group for my sanity ) for the and comradeship offered so freely.

Landing gist loading for 2021 by the grace of God.

Open a new profile and send a mail to SINP with your details, explaining what happened.

Your hubby must have made a mistake while reviewing the profile which caused same saved data to get lost. The EE system does not keep data. Once you open a form you have submitted before, it immediately opens it for editing. If you leave the form without cross-checking that all your information as still intact, the data might be lost.

Bonne chance.

Thank you so much.

Please am a silence reader i really need help as soon as possible.My husband was just nominated for sinp but his IRRC profile turn to ineligible and locked . Please what can we do. Thanks

That's not true Mr Justwise is right.The maintenance fees for the main applicants is different from the dependents(Both spouse and children).

RalphJean:



You are WRONG.
The maintenance money for a 1 year old T4 child dependant is EXACTLY the same for a 15 Year old child dependant. And is exactly the same for a 100 year old Spouse dependant.

Ha accommodation was sorted but getting here,i was informed that due to my child it won't be granted anymore.

imnotconfused:



Hiya, unfortunately I don't know Manchester at all so can't be of any help.
Have you looked at spare room website?
I've always rented from Rightmove where you can put in your location and all houses for rent will pop up.

You may just have to perch in a b&b till you sort yourself out? How did you leave Naija without accommodation sorted?

Maybe a church will help?
Sorry o

Fatima and other able mothers in the house please help me. Some of the the accommodation i saw they keep saying no child but accept couple.
