Jojolet:


Thanks Cochtrane. But I am still a little confused. So WES evaluated only my spouse' HND as 3 years diploma and 1 year pg cert without receiving the transcripts for the OND transcripts. So in this case do I have to duplicate the HND in ee profile and put the 2 certs? Please help clarify
I'm not sure, but I believe this should correspond to:
1. Bachelor's degree or other programs (three or more years)
2. One-year postgraduate diploma

please whats the alternative for lawyers as regards this IQAS delays i need those points o cry

Thanks for sharing this.

In view of this development, intending applicants may consider ICES as an alternative to IQAS. Those who attended universities that are known for responding swiftly to verification may consider WES.

Habab just google them naaa.
You have the names and even knw the specific info you need. Just read and jot down your findings then compare and contrast.
You could also either check @ Cockranes summary on page 0, or use d search bar at the top of this page.

Let us try to put in our own individual research so that people wont enter "jump and pass" mode upon seeing questions.

Hello MsLEE: you can get Indian PCC from the embassy at Abuja, that is where they can get it done for you.
However, its not immediately issued, so if you want to travel to Abuja prepare for a trip of 3-5days.
Wishing Goodluck...

Hi guys, finally application approved, COPR and Visas on hand. The journey came with its delays, from waiting to get medical passed to BG status changing to IP2 and the wait for the Golden email to the finally getting passports on hand but God saw us through it all. Hallelujah!

Initially the journey started with an application to SNP in December 2016, because we never thought that the draws will fall below 450 (which nobody anticipated following earlier trends). Lo and behold, 2017 ushered in a new dawn and we are grateful to God and scores dropped like the walls of jerico (those that knew scores in 2015/2016 will understand) and there it was ITA. I immediately withdrew the SNP application and commenced gathering of documents.

Areas that gave me sleepless nights:

1. Marriage certificate uploaded was a black and white photocopy (for some weird reason I was worried it wasn't uploaded in color) and Rank/Profession discrepancy, thanks to the registry. angry

2. Used 90% gift deed from father with proper letter of explanation and supporting documents.

3. GTB Bank statement were in black and white except front and back pages that had stamps (reason for this was to shrink the document to fit 4MB as the statement was voluminous)....and I used gift deed....I know right. grin

But at the end of the day....the rest is history!!!

The timeline goes thus:

Family size -----------------------Principal + 4 dependants
ITA ------------------------------- 22 Feb
AOR - ---------------------------- 11 Apr
Meds passed -------------------- 14 June
BGC: IP1 --- ---------------------15 June
BGC: NA ------------------------- 19 June
ADR(1) -------------------------- 12 July - Schedule A (IMM5669) - PA .... I submitted 13th July
ADR(2) -------------------------- 17 July - Schedule A (IMM5669) - Spouse.....I submitted 18 July
BGC: IP 2 ----------------------- 27 July
PPR------------------------------- 4 Aug (Email received Aug 5 - 4.41am.....i saw d email 8am)
Passports sent to Accra --------- 7 Aug
Delivered ------------ ------------9 Aug
Additional Passport Request ----18 Aug
Passport sent to Accra - -------- 18 Aug
Delivered------------------------- 21 Aug
Application Approved-------------31 Aug
Pick up mail sent -----------------11 Sep (mysteriously it was sent to my spouse's email after sending mails and calling) undecided
COPR & VOH ----------------------15 Sep


AOR - PPR - 116 days
PPR - COPR - 42 days ....delayed partly because I did not send my kids US passport initially (sent only data color page), they later requested for it which you saw in the timeline and also Pick up mail wasn't sent out the next day.

Pls what are d have job opportunities in Canada and prospects of making good money.

You can assess job opportunities by checking job sites to see vacancies available in your occupation. Try the Job Bank, LinkedIn, Monster.ca, indeed.ca, Workopolis, Glassdoor.ca etc

The prospects of good money depends on your work experience, skillset and level of preparation for job search. The good jobs are there, that can't be denied but it is wether you can convince an employer that you are a proper fit is the 'koko' as our people say. All the best ahead.

You can send the copy of your certificate to WES via fax. Their fax no is 416-972-9004.

Good day all,

Please I need clarifications in sending the copy of my degree certificate to WES.
I understand my school will send the transcripts to WES, which I have already started.

Concerning the copy of my degree certificate, will I send it via post to WES or by Email?

I appreciate your help on this matter

Thanks

Hi Belushi,

I just applied for UNILAG transcript and I want to seek clarifications on a few things.

1. When I applied online, there was provision to attach only one document so I could upload only the reciept of payment from remita. I could not attach the WES form for transcript request. Pls how did you give unilag your wes form?
2. How long did it take from the day you applied online before UNILAG sent your transcript to WES?

Please kindly respond

belushi7:
Good day all.

WES received response on verification from Unilag on Monday 11/9/2017. They still went ahead to state the evaluation will be due for completion on 29/9/2017. This is after receiving transcripts and certificates since mid August.
Question is, does it take that long for WES to complete ECA after receiving response to their verification from schools? That's like another 18days.

I wonder why they'll wait that long before transferring it if they decide to. Have you had any visa refusals before?
It would appear that they do that mostly to people who have had prior visa refusals. Maybe they just want to conduct more thorough checks.

Why does applications for PR through PNP route take such a long time. I was worried that since August 28, there has been no update on my application, not even medical, until I checked on myimmitracker.com and saw that while direct ITAs are progressing swiftly, their counterparts from PNP are crawling. Can somebody please help me explain the rationale?
