Early July is the time that most candidates for the Canada immigration program; Express Entry has been waiting for. Why? Canada immigration minister, Sean Fraser, announced that he would be selecting applicants from the long-awaiting pool of eligible candidates starting from that period. Do you know you can be among them? If not, yes, you can even if you have not started any processing at all till now! Let me explain how exactly that is possible for you and your family.
The Normal Timeline
Since the time Express Entry started way back around the early 2000s, the average processing time it took Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to process the multitude of applications was six (6) months. And, many of these applicants were to land in Canada within the 6 months period their Permanent Residency (PR) status was issued to them. Just like one of my family members who was given his Confirmation of Permanent Residence (CoPR) last two years and moved into Canada just barely a week ago – Sunday 22nd May 2022.
The Story Behind it
He was not so fortunate initially like the rest of you who would take this as a sign and start your own processing now. As at the time he started his own processing, the dreadful Coronavirus had struck the world. And, he had his CoPR since 2020 but had to wait to be cleared for departure by April 2022. In order words, he spent two years condoling the hardship and corruption in Nigeria. He complained about his job but had to continue with it just to pass by. Thank God he didn’t already quit his job like many people do when they get a glimpse of their applications working out.Act like a Nigerian
Here comes my advice, don’t be like someone who just saw the clouds darkening and poured out all his reserved water thinking that the rain will fall but alas it didn’t later on. Back to the point, he and one of my master’s degree friends stayed back in their jobs up until they got approval to relocate from IRCC.In fact, my other friend has not left Nigeria yet. She still loves her job and wants to earn more before leaving. At least, now she has a foreign land as insurance in case the upcoming Gubernatorial and Presidential elections of Nigeria in 2023 becomes too bloody that she cannot afford to wait. She has the full Canadian permanent residency right to JAPA now.
Covid19 Pandemic Lockdown
Similarly, many Nigerian-Canadians and permanent residents of Canada I know did just that when the pandemic was out there. They were in Nigeria around December 2019 but when they heard of it potentially entering Nigeria, many of them flew out of the country around February and March 2020 when it was already present already and got their palliative pack from the Canadian government when they landed here. How come? Canada prioritize their citizens and permanent residents just like the Americans do and will assist their evacuation from a country that threatens their citizens and permanent residents’ lives and properties period.Permanent Residency is Difficult
No one should doubt it, the process to attain such status in a country that is not your birth country is hard. You cannot be given such rights on a platter of gold, come on except of course you really do have some platter of gold either in lots of cash or rare talents that you really have harnessed and will yield great dividends for the owner and managers of such gem but let’s face it in the real world, you have to really work or pay the price to get such privileges. So, I would not sugarcoat this issue. To get PR in Canada, either do it yourself through thick and thin or just consult an immigration agency to take the stress of you.
Other Routes Available
It may please you to know that there are other pathways you can use to move to Canada like it is always been advertised. Some are legit while others are not. Some are costly while others aren’t. Some take more time while others take lesser. To put in perspective, there is always a tradeoff in immigration just like in everything in life. You cannot get what you want without having to let either your freedom go, sanity go, money go, time go, leisure go, and so on. Study visa is one of those pathways for the rich and/or brilliant and/or talented. Have none of this? You may as well be chasing shadows and still get rejected or disapproved legally like I know of applicants who did it themselves and others who used agents but still get their applications refused.The many PR bonuses
As a permanent resident, you move from your home country to Canada and have all the rights a citizen has apart from voting. You can study as much as you want, work any job in any company you get employed, move in and out of the country as much as you like, travel within the country without any restriction, even buy a house, land and other properties without any prohibitions, start or join a business while working, studying or just living there, plus even live there for 5 years and renew your status every 5 years if you wish or better still become a Canadian after physically staying in Canada for 1095 days (approximately 3 whole not consecutive years). What else do you want? No other pathway can afford you that luxury, not even early asylum seeking.

Now, I just want to tell you how you can take just 6 major steps and find yourself and family members chosen to move into Canada as soon as the selection process starts in early July.
