Good nairalanders, I have been following this forum and I must say that am impressed.

My question is, my husband is a civil engineer but works in an oil servicing firm as a petroleum engineer and mechanical engineer. Is he eligible to apply as a petroleum engineer under FSW. Since mechanical is filled up
Also, his international passport will expire august 2014, any effect on that.

Our proof of fund will be share certificate of his and mine and lands, together with a little cash of 500k. We are family of 3.
Are we eligible to apply for this FSW

Thanks

Nklove

NYSC experience counts only if it is paid work experience and you work for a minimum of approximately 40 hours per week.

Well like I said again....based on my personal experience with cic........I am saying what I know.....and how I sent my app...this was not 2 far .....just last yr .....since u feel I too know......will quietly stay mute n watch u guys do ur thing..........I wish u all gudluck in ur quest.

Tranquill:

It is simply a paper that you write your own address on so that should there be any need to send a paper mail to you, they just paste it on an evelope and then put it in the post so that it goes to the address that you wrote down by urself. In this case any mistake in the mailing address will purely be ur own fault. I dont know if in Nigeria you can get these plain address stickers but alternatively, type you mailing address on a plain white sheet and then cut the sheet into size that can be 'gummed' to an envelope.

pickabeau1: In my opinion you do not need to send a pcc now as it is valid for 6 months..

You may need to still obtain another pcc upon request exceptyou are sure u wwill be thru by 6 mths time

Send in ur application quickly

Tranquill:

Not sure of PH but certainly at the police headquater in Abuja. If the requirements are same as in Lagos, all you need is passport photos. Cant remember how many exactly but go with 2. You can not do it by proxy as they will need your finger print.

IMPORTANT- I understand you shouldnt pay more than 5k. I spent up to 16k in Lagos but felt really foolish when I realised I was used. They will 1st evaluate how naive you are about the whole thing then try to get as much money from you as possible. So bear in mind that you dont spend more than 5k. Good luck.

From the website as at october 4th, it says 3211 3211 Medical laboratory technologists has 107 applications http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/complete-applications.asp

It is believed that this data is correct for applications received in the first week of July

At the correct rate which is about 45 per month(for May n June) you may be lucky and scale in

However u can also consider 3212 which is less agrressive

BUT you need to get your IELTS sorted out and your ECA done

IS your transcript ready to be sent...
