Hello guys

Pls I am trying to do my credential assessment with WES for both my bachelor and masters degree. I am required to post both certificates to them. I have the certificate for my bachelor degree but statement of result for my masters program. But my school can make the transcript available.

My question is if I can submit the statement of result.
Certificate would be issued whenever the school does convocation.

Just looking to increase my points.

Yes, he needs the employment reference.

Whatever you submit at the time of your application(or claim to have) will be the same to be presented at the time of your visa application(after the issuance of ITA). If there is any contradiction between your work reference and what is submitted (especially the date),you stand the risk of being rejected and being banned for 5 years.

The date the reference letter was issued is not requested while registering for EE, it's only employment duration dates that are requested and as such, what is important is to ensure that the letter reflects those dates, when your company issues you the letter is not an issue

Whatever will make you have your ECA result and IELTS result handy at the time of your application should make you have all other documents ready except of course Police Clearance Certificate which expire after 3 months of issuance.

To guide against "Innocent mistakes",it is advisable you have all your details (including work references) ready at the time of submitting your details on EE.

•You must make sure that the information in your profile stays true and accurate at all times. ◦If your situation changes (for example, if you start a new career, you get a new language test, get married, or have a new baby), you must update your profile.


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Be sure that your profile is fully up-to-date and accurate.

If you are invited to apply, you will be responsible for any information in your profile and application for permanent residence.

If we find that you misrepresented yourself (gave us false information or left out important details), we will refuse your application. In that case:
•your application could be refused,
•you could be found inadmissible, and
•you could be barred for five years from applying for permanent resident status.

Let me help you..

Nobody talks about the date the employment reference was issued but there must not be any discrepancy between dates of employment. There are bound to be discrepancies regarding actual date of employment and the dates filled in the EE application portal. The resultant effect is for the CRS to award points that is not well deserved.

If you have all documents handy at the time of applying, you save yourself the headache of making "innocent" mistakes! Many people will not remember the actual date (month, year) of employment at the time of registration especially past employment so it cost next to nothing to have the documents handy.

JesusDWay:


I see your point but really, it's not exactly needed now. Not everybody makes such mistakes

I had my OND and Degree credentials verified by WES. What I submitted was the degree certificate and the OND Statement of result, and both were honour them. Provided your school provides verification and transcript when required by them, I don't think you should have any issues.

solomonwis:


Since you are an expert in shooting/hitting a target in the dark, I wish you luck!

JesusDWay:


I don't think that comment is necessary. Kindly be respectful of opinions that differ from yours, i respected yours and i wasn't condescending when addressing you.

Sleekjaguar:


I used both and the experiences are as follows:

WES will send a verification of credential request back to the Nigerian institution. If your school is the unresponsive type, it will delay your report because without that WES will not conclude nor issue it. If your school is foreign, e.g. UK or US, then no worries, they'll accept their transcript submissions and deliver to you when they're through.

ICAS on the other hand, will not send a verification of credential request back to the Nigerian institution but their timeline is very long.
I applied sometime in September/ October 2014 but got my report just last week, Feb 20, 2015.

WES' process is usually about 2 months or slightly more. This also depends on how quick you're to act, type of postage used (courier in this case).


Thank you.....

I also learnt that one can use ICAS to apply for jobs, academics and other assessments when in Canada, but not with WES. If it is a question of time, I'm not in a hurry, so I think ICAS will work for me.....

From the foregoing, if time is of the essence, I'll suggest you use WES, otherwise ICAS.

Yes, you do. Even though you are not required to send physical documents at the time of your registration, you should endeavor to have documentary evidence of your claim at the time of registration.

Hello solomonwis,
My certificate of service carries the duration of my service with the company , my job title, my department ,and my staff cadre level.
My company says, it would only release more info about my service with them under confidentiality.
Can i use this as it doesn't contain info about my job responsibilities, and number of hours worked per week.

I want to apply for the express entry as the principal applicant but hubby is not ready to
write IELTS because he has s thriving business
here. Is it compulsory ? Though I have a sibling in Canada to give me additional point on adaptability . I'm thinking of going ahead with application without his IELTS . Please advise

JesusDWay:
6Years and upwards is the highest no of years of work that is needed to get you the highest score allocated for work experience. Going by what you posted here, your work experience from 2008 till present is sufficient and as such, for me o, you may not bother disclosing what you did before 2008.

As touching Digiprint, I will suggest you quickly go and get the reference letter for the period you were with them before the unwanted happens. I don't know if Cic contacts the employers we provide information about but even if they do and the company has folded up by then, I will expect them to get back to you while you then update them on what the circumstances may be then.

2000 - 2004 : Please get attestation from the clients you worked for/with during the period. Please get up to 2 or 3 attestation regarding the assignment carried out during the period.

Digiprint Int'l : Ensure you receive a work reference before the company finally close down. You don't need to bring this to the notice of CIC except of course questions arises as to the going concern of the organization. As long as you get work reference regarding the company,CIC can always get the details of the organization from the corporate affairs commission (CAC) if the need arises.

Hello Gurus,

I applied for FSWP 2014. In the liabilities section, I did not state a certain loan amount as part of my liabilities because there is debate regarding the loan amount owed. So I did not know what amount to put there. I am yet to meet the creditors and agree what the loan amount really is and come up with a repayment plan. Do you think this could affect my application? I need your advice? Thanks.

helloCanada:
@Solomonwis,

Thanks for your response. What are your reasons.

Can they find out? And would they not say I omitted important information or misrepresented?

Thanks.
