My first ever opinion essay here - It's kinda hard writing my thought as a formal writing

Day 3

Choose an online article and write an opinion essay about the topic, including some ideas from the original article.

You Need These 3 Ingredients to Build Stress Resilience (click the title to read the article)

I believe that we should not avoid stress and any other negative emotions. Rather than avoiding them, we should "befriend" them by realising, welcoming, understanding, and managing them. (Read my article (in Indonesian language) Menyadari, Menerima, Memahami dan Mengelola Personal Branding Layaknya Perasaan)

This article represent what I believe in simpler way. It tells us to practice resilience, which includes awareness, equanimity, and flexible coping.

Being aware is the same with realising what is going on with our emotion. Do we perhaps feels like we cannot breath easily? Then it might be that we're angry. When we're angry, chest is the most area that will feel burdened, like it is fired by flame. Recognising or being aware to our emotion is the first step or becoming resilience.

Then, equanimity is the same as welcoming and understanding. It won't be any better if we only recognising our emotion without trying to do anything about it. Do not chase away our negative emotion. Instead, we should welcome them, then understand them. If we're stopping right at welcoming, then it is the same as bringing back a stray kitten without any care of maintaining its health and behaviour. And that is not good.

After that is flexible coping. In my opinion, it is the same as managing emotions. Note it: managing, not avoiding. According to the article, avoiding our negative emotions (avoidant coping) 'can reduce distress, often immediately'. Therefore, the need to be flexible toward our negative emotions is necessary. Try to do something meaningful, such as helping other people, cleaning our home, doing our hobbies, et cetera without indulging it toward the negative side.

I strongly disagree that people should hide their feeling all the time, even with their family and close people. That build up negative emotions could lead to distress (depression, anxiety, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder). In the end, we should be aware of our emotions, approach it with equanimity, and cope them with flexibility.

How to Apply for a Canada Permanent Residence Visa

If you’re a Canadian citizen, you already know the value of permanent residence in this country. But if you’re from another country, your journey to becoming a Canadian resident can be quite daunting. With so many forms and applications to sift through, it can be difficult to know where to begin.

But don’t worry! In this article, I’ll take you through the entire process of apply for a Canada PR visa. I’ll explain everything from eligibility criteria to required paperwork to application fees. This guide will help make your transition into life in Canada as smooth and stress-free as possible!

Determine Your Eligibility for a Canada PR Visa

An important part of your permanent residence visa application is to make sure you meet the criteria for approval. Generally, you must prove that you can become economically established in Canada. This means demonstrating that:

You have sufficient English or French language proficiency to live and work in Canada

You have relevant experience and education as determined by Canadian standards

You pass a medical exam, background check, and security clearance

You possess an employment offer from a Canadian company or be self-employed in Canada

All applicants must go through the same processes, regardless of country of origin. It is important to make sure that all the required documents are submitted with your application so that it can be processed in a timely manner. Applicants may be asked for additional documentation as part of their application process.

Choose a Canada Immigration Program

Once you decide that you want to make Canada your permanent home, the first step is to choose the right immigration program. Canada has a number of immigration programs that offer different pathways to permanent residence. You need to research each one and find the one that best fits your goals and qualifications.

Here are some of the most popular programs:

Express Entry: The Express Entry system allows skilled workers from around the world to immigrate to Canada with their families in as little as six months. This system is points-based and applicants are selected based on their skills, education, work experience, language proficiency and other factors.

Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs): Each Canadian province and territory has its own PNP program. These allow provinces and territories to select skilled workers for immigration based on their own criteria.

Family Sponsorship: Canadian citizens or permanent residents can sponsor family members who would like to live in Canada permanently.

Take some time to research each program and determine which one is right for you. Once you have chosen a program and assessed your eligibility, you can start the application process!

Gather the Required Documents to Apply for PR Visa

You'll need to have all the documents ready in order to proceed with your application for a Canada permanent residence visa. To make sure you have everything ready, here's a checklist of the documents you'll need:

Proof of Funds

Proof of funds could come in the form of a bank statement or investment portfolio that shows enough money to support yourself and family while living in Canada. Generally, you should have enough money to cover living expenses and your family’s travel costs for 6 months after arriving in Canada.

Language Ability

You need to prove language ability — either English or French — by providing an IELTS (International English Language Testing System) test report or CAEL (Canadian Academic English Language) test report, issued within two years of your application.

Education Credential Assessment

The Education Credential Assessment (ECA) is necessary if you’re applying under the Federal Skilled Worker Program or Canadian Experience Class programs. The assessment compares your foreign educational credentials to those earned in Canada and must be issued by one of three organizations approved by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Police Certificate

If you’re 18 years old or over, you need a police certificate from any country where you’ve lived for more than six months since turning 18 years old. You may also be asked to provide police certificates from other countries where you've lived since turning 18 years old even if it was for less than six months. These certificates show that you don't have a criminal record and must be up-to-date — issued within six months before submitting an application — and if not available, IRCC may accept older certificates as long as

Submit Your Application for Canada PR Visa

Getting ready to apply for your Canada PR Visa? You're in the right place! Applying for a Canada Permanent Residence Visa can seem like a daunting process, but it doesn't have to be.

Here's what you'll need to do to submit your application:

Complete the application form. This will include all of your personal information, as well as information about your family members and any other dependents who will be traveling with you.

Collect all required documents. This includes proof of identity and other documents verifying the information on your application form, such as proof of employment, education, and any other supporting papers that may be requested by the Canadian government (such as a police clearance certificate).

Send in your application package along with all supporting documents and the applicable fees. Fees can vary depending on the type of application you’re submitting and how many family members are traveling with you, so make sure you have enough funds ready to cover the cost of apply for a Canada PR visa.

Wait for an answer from Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). You should receive an answer within six months after submitting your application - though sometimes it may take longer if CIC needs additional information or if there is any other issue that needs to be resolved before they can grant you permanent residence status in Canada.

Following these steps will ensure that you get approved for a Canada PR visa in less time!

Prepare for the Medical Examination

The next step of applying for a Canada Permanent Residence Visa is to get ready for the medical examination. This is an important part of the application process and must be taken seriously. 

Attend an Interview and Get the PR Visa Decision

The next step in the Canadian PR Visa application process is to attend an interview with a Canadian visa officer. At the interview, you'll need to provide evidence that you are eligible for a permanent residence visa and answer any questions the visa officer may have about your application.

At the end of the interview, the visa officer will make a decision on your PR Visa application. Your decision could be one of three outcomes:

Approved – if approved, you will get a letter in the mail that outlines when and how you should arrive in Canada as a Permanent Resident.

Refused – if refused, you will receive a letter in the mail that outlines why your application was denied and what steps you can take if you wish to appeal your decision.

Put on hold – if put on hold, it means that the visa officer needs more time to review your application before they make their final decision. In this case, they may request additional documents or further clarification before making their final decision.

No matter what outcome is reached at the end of your interview, it's important to remember that applying for a Canada Permanent Residence Visa can be a long process but with proper preparation and understanding of requirements it can be done successfully!

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Canadian permanent residence visa application process is complex, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. With the right guidance and resources, you can maximize your chances of success and make your Canadian visa journey easier.

By taking the time to research, consult experts, and prepare all the necessary documents, you can put yourself in the best position to obtain your Canadian PR visa. Though the process may be lengthy, the outcome could be life-changing and worth the effort.

That post that 50% of US population can't read is shocking. I am studying english as a second language an IELTS test includes such tasks as reading for gist, reading for main ideas, reading for detail, skimming, understanding logical argument and recognising writers' opinions, attitudes and purpose. Isn't it a part of native reading education?

Original post referred to (read the reblogs)

When I was first learning to read (3-5 yrs old) in school, there were no courses or lessons at my private Catholic school that was named so specifically as the ones you listed just now, but they were pretty much included in "reading comprehension". So yes, they are here in the U.S., the problem is that the importance and focus placed on this all might have changed since I went to kindergarten. Catholic/private/religious schools don't reallycount, because the curriculum isn't decided by official school administrators by the state but a private board for the community.

Another thing is that my dad sometimes taught me with books he bought, and I also read independently because I was a bookworm who didn't go anywhere. So that also put me ahead of other people--I noticed--as I grew up. I can't be used as a measure of the average or indicator of it unless you ask my parents how I learned to read.

So the steady decline in teaching "reading comprehension" to children in America, I suppose, has been happening for at least 30-40 years? This is a number I personally guess, considering how old I am (26).

What are the requirements for the UK Spouse Visa?

To apply for a UK Spouse Visa, you and your spouse must be at least eighteen years old. Your partner must be a British or Irish citizen, have a certain type of visa, or have made the UK their home. 

To apply as a spouse, your relationship must be legally recognized in the UK. You need to provide a marriage certificate. If you're not married but have lived together in a relationship similar to marriage for at least two years, you can apply for an Unmarried Partner Visa.

You’ll need to demonstrate that you meet the following requirements:

Financial: 

The sponsoring partner must prove they can support you both without relying on public funds. The minimum income requirement is currently £29,000. You can meet the financial requirement with income from various sources, including employment, savings over £16,000, or pensions. Income from employment before tax and National Insurance, self-employment, serving as a director of a limited company in the UK, dividends, and rent are all acceptable income sources.

Accommodation: 

If you and your partner want to live together in the UK, you must show proof of appropriate housing. It will be your responsibility to demonstrate that the lodging is fit for living, safe, and not overcrowded.

English Language: 

You’ll need to prove your knowledge of English, usually by passing an approved English language test at CEFR level A1. You have to show that you can communicate well in English. If you are over 65, from a nation where English is the primary language, or have a degree that was taught in English, you may be excluded from this requirement.

You may show that you are proficient in the English language by completing tests like the IELTS UKVI Life Skills exam. The necessary English proficiency level for individuals asking for an extension who are already in the UK is CEFR A2.  

For settlement, it's CEFR B1.

Suitability and Other: 

You also need to meet suitability requirements regarding your character and immigration history. You may also need to provide a tuberculosis test certificate, depending on your country of origin.

If you are unable to pay the application cost because of a variety of circumstances, the UK government offers fee exemptions. You can apply to get your visa extended before it expires. Extending your family visa allows you to stay in the UK for an additional two years and six months. 

After five years on a spouse visa, you can apply for indefinite leave to remain, sometimes known as settlement. This would allow you to live in the UK permanently.

You must apply for the Spouse Visa online. Those applying from outside the UK will usually get a decision within 12 weeks. For those applying from inside the UK, if you meet the financial requirements and English language requirements, you’ll usually get a decision within 8 weeks. 

However, if you don’t meet these requirements, it can take about 12 months to make a decision. There is a faster decision option available for an additional fee.

It is strongly recommended to consult with an immigration lawyer, such as The Smartmove2UK, for expert guidance on your specific situation.

They can streamline the application procedure, assist you in obtaining the required paperwork, and clarify what is needed. Even though immigration processes are complicated, knowledgeable immigration advisers can help you understand the financial, language, and other criteria as well as help you avoid frequent mistakes made throughout the application process.

New Leaf on Tumblr - This Tumblr is now officially an actual blog V:

Day 1

Start writing a blog – it can be about anything: your hobbies, life goals or favourite films or music.

I am starting a new life here on Tumblr. To be honest, I have one other blog -- which actually a more legit blog than this, lol -- but I do not really care with that one. This blog is funnier and there's more freedom.

So! Hello (again?). I now am officially a job seeker and also a scholarship hunter (for master degree).

Wait. My timer's up. I need to pause this for 10 minutes.

I found a seven days IELTS writing challenge from British Council (here's the link: https://www.britishcouncil.org.tr/en/blog/nine-tips-to-improve-your-ielts-writing-score), and I think I need to do this challenge as a start. I have done a free IELTS mock up test by E2 before (here's the link: https://youtu.be/NXJa7GFjY3U), yet other than that mock up test, I've never actually practice IELTS, let alone the writing.

By the way, i just learnt a new... preposition. It is "let alone". It's said that "let alone" used to indicate that something is far less likely, possible, or suitable than something else already mentioned. For example: He was incapable of leading a bowling team, let alone a country.

I also just learnt that "preposition" means a word or group of words, such as in, from, to, out of and on behalf of, used before a noun or pronoun to show place, position, time and method. Honestly, I understand what is preposition, but never actually know the name. Hehe. Typical me. This time, I will be honest with my incapability.

Let me wrap this post with my IELTS listening and reading scores (mock up test). Listening: 6. Reading: 7. I've done both of them in an extremely noisy house (I remember it was when my sister and mum got into a fight), thus giving me a lot more confidence for both parts (because i know the test place will not be that noisy). I am also confident with the speaking part, yet only for the first and third part (Jay from E2 said the second part is kind of weird, and I have to admit, yes).

I will write something again tomorrow, and that is going to be writing from the National Library~! As I wrote before, I would like to use this blog to share anything Broadcasting, thus I think will be the next topic I write here ^^

Corrections:

Red: Incorrect; Green: The correction; Yellow: Should add this

I've done both of them in an extremely noisy house (I remember it was when my sister and mum got into a fight), thus giving me a lot more confidence for both parts (because I know the test place will not be that noisy). I am also confident with the speaking part, yet only for the first and third parts (Jay from E2 said the second part is kind of weird, and I have to admit, yes).

I will write something again tomorrow, and that is going to be writing from the National Library~! As I wrote before, I would like to use this blog to share anything Broadcasting, thus I think this will be the next topic I write here ^^
