Sunnytheshine. Thanks for sharing BUT i may be a little slow here. CIC says, "you can go with both" and "withdraw one" ? sounds contradictory to me

Tenkrun10, i agree with you. It is not only contradictory but worrisome and i will state my reasons.

The first guide we got on this RLMD program stated two clear things that eventually served as pitfall for so many of us.

1. it was clearly stated that we can apply with IELTS Academic General , but along the line the rule was modified to align with CIC rules.

2. They also said you can apply to more than one province provided you show enough plan to settle in NS, this has also been used to disqualify people honest enough to state such having relied on the FAQs.

These are written rules that suddenly changed and no one can hold them responsible for it talkless of a telephone conversation probably picked by a customer service staff and not the back door staff doing the nitty gritty of the work.

My brother, just thread on the side of caution, congrats once again.

To refresh our memory, these are the extracts:

Do applicants need to take the IELTS General test if they have already passed the IELTS Academic test?
No. A passing score on the IELTS Academic test will be sufficient to prove English language proficiency.

Can applicants apply to the NSNP if they have already applied to another Provincial Nominee Program?
Yes, this is possible. However, applicants must meet all necessary requirements and demonstrate a genuine intention to make a life in Nova Scotia.

I called this number. It's not valid for outside canada calls either. I wonder how you got through it.
Please shed some light.

If you want to call Nova Scotia IO here it is: +1 (902) 424 5230
And here is the link for source: http://novascotiaimmigration.ca/

If you want to call CIC -> it is really hard!!!
You should input a lot of efforts, but it isn't guaranteed...
 
Call CIC on 1-888-242-2100 press 121 then enter UCI# & your birth year when asked if you have already applied it under PNP program and got AOR. It is automated machine telling status of your application.

Otherwise press 0 . you can directly talk with representative.

Dear Senior,

Please share Employment and Settlement plan who received pre-screening email or Nomination letter from NSNP . My e-mail address is royamitbd@yahoo.com
 
Hi everyone,

I just want to share that I called NSOI maybe around 2 weeks ago, the lady said that my file is already for pickup by the officer who will do the pre-screening and that I should wait for a few days until I receive an e-mail from them but until now I haven't received anything yet. Also, she also sounded like she saw my papers physically and found my name.

Anyone had the same response from calling the NSOI? esp those who already have pre-screening e-mail.

Thank you again!

Its strange that I can never get past 1-888-242-2100 number. It rings and the call gets disconnected. I don't even get
a chance to press any number. I tried many times.
I was able to talk with a lady on that other 613 number. She said she cannot help with immigration related questions
and that there is no number where people from outside Canada can call CIC. She said only way is to email them at
question@cic.gc.ca and wait for the reply.
 
Sorry, it is only accessible in Canada. Let me find out something for you.
