Hello house
Please i need information on how I can pay for my wes fee using my gt card.
I keep getting error message that I should fill in the details of my card correctly. Gt bank also sending me a mail of declined transaction due to insufficient fund, says, N90,841 is the equivalent of 230cad but I have more than that in my acc.
How safe is paying via the western union option on WES website?
Help please

Sorry about the ECA wahala.

Doesn't seem like some Benin Republic Unis are Internationally recognised. See links below, some people have had similar issues with CES and IQAS.

Maybe explore:

1) check if your school is accredited by the Benin Republic Ministry of Education

2) sending your Benin docs to other ECA bodies: ICAS, ICES etc and see what happens. Expensive option

3) do you have another Bachelor's from a different country e.g. Nigeria?

Rejection story and judicial case. NOC related. PNP scaled through, IRCC didn't. Sad. Cross the "t"s and dot the "i"s for PNP but also do same for IRCC also.

Thank you. I don't have another except that BCS.
Please do you have any idea how CES charges or any other evaluating body.

Hello, please I have a masters degree from Unilag and want it evaluated for WES. I have sent my transcript but I have issues getting my certificate as I am not residing in Nigeria presently. Can statement of results or letter of attestation be sent to WES for evaluation in place of certificate?

Hello
I think you just have to be honest with yourself and identify the ties; it can be family, school network, Naija community in Ontario.... I explained my ties in 5 bullet points or so and got approved, yet I didn't have any family member in Canada.
Good luck.

If you travel by air a lot, beware of over friendly chatty seat neighbours

The older lady comes and sits next to me inside the plane. She asked me to help her put her bag in the overhead luggage compartment. But a gentleman sitting across quickly came through. (I am not very tall and the overhead luggage compartment is something I try to avoid at all costs.

Immediately she sits down she strikes up a conversation. She was very pleasant and well spoken. So we chatted all through the flight to Dubai.
Suddenly, when the pilot announced that we were now proceeding to begin our descent into DXB, my good friend 'developed' stomach pains. Me with my good heart, I pressed the stewards button, and the stewardess came to find out what the problem was. I told her my seat mate was not feeling well. And this lady, she suddenly began to address me as 'my daughter'.

The stewardess told me that there was nothing they could do except give her some painkillers and wait until we landed. The pilot announced that we had a medical emergency on board and advised us all to stay calm. My new friend was crying and sweating like crazy. And she refused to let go of my hand... everyone assumed we knew each other.

So we landed at DXB and the same gentleman who helped put up her luggage in the overhead compartment removed her luggage. But as he removed the luggage, he advised me to distance myself from this lady and make it clear to the cabin crew that we were NOT travelling together. He was a godsend!

So indeed, the cabin crew came and asked me if we were related, I categorically told them we had met on the plane. I didn't know her at all. So we began to deplane and as I said goodbye she kept begging me to carry her handbag. I was so torn... but the gentleman looked me in the eye and emphatically shook his head. He passed me a note telling me to let the cabin crew handle her.

So I exit the aircraft and leave my 'new friend' to wait for the wheelchair and be handled by the cabin crew feeling very guilty.

As we waited for our luggage to come through, I hear this commotion. My 'new friend' was running, trying to escape the cabin crew, having gotten out of the wheelchair! She left the stewardess with her handbag and just ran towards the exit with the rest of her hand luggage! Luckily the airport police were faster than her. They got hold of her and brought her back in handcuffs.

This lady starts calling out to me.. my daughter... my daughter!.. how could you do this to me..... that's when I caught on. She was carrying drugs and she was trying to implicate me!

Luckily for me, the gentleman who had helped her with her luggage came forward and told the airport police that me and her had just met on the plane. The police took my passport and asked her to reveal my full names if it was true we were travelling together. By God's grace, I had not even told her my first name! I was still asked to follow the police to a little room where I was questioned extensively. Where did I meet her?... where did I board... where did she board. Etc... And my luggage was extensively searched and dusted for fingerprints.

They dusted all her luggage and my fingerprints were not found anywhere on her luggage or on her handbag!
I was let go with advice never ever to touch anyone's luggage either in flight or at the airport. So from that day, I don't care how much luggage you have, you will deal with it yourself. I will not even offer you a trolley to put your luggage on! Your luggage... your problem.... is my policy. And if you can't reach the overhead compartment, and I am the nearest person, please call the cabin crew because all I will do is give you a blank stare and then look away!

A lesson to glean therein for intending air travelers.

I don't think he was rejected because he made changes to his profile pre-ITA.

Lools like he was rejected because he didn't add work history details for 1114 e.g. Jan 2000 to Dec 2017 Bookeeper at Leventis Ltd...... even though he had changed his primary NOC to 1114.

Perhaps he forgot or didn't even realise the omission or thought it didn't matter.

The lesson for us is to ensure profiles are accurate and we pay attention to detail. Having someone else look at what you have completed is never a bad idea.

Please I need advice, I don't know if possible for me to create my express entry application and enter the pool before my 5 year ban will elapsed next year February middle.

Adebayo82:
Mispresentation was due to mistaken to tick yes instead of no when i got to the page whether I refused a visa to any country. Meanwhile I was refused a visa to USA twice. I requested for Gcms then to see the full details.

For those that may respond to people here looking for travel mates.

I paid for myself and my wife on Tuesday through flutter wave dollar card. The exchange rate was 579.
It cost about N108,000.

This person claimed CES didn't recognise their school in Benin Republic: https://www.nairaland.com/6081746/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/504#100361203

The list of all ECA organisations is on page 1, you'll need to check their websites for more details. Maybe check ICES and ICAS, you can even email them to ask first if they recognise your Uni.

What was your BCS evaluated as? Are you willing and able to do TEF....... since you lived in a francophone country? Play around with the CRS calculator and see if TEF can make up for the unrecognised Bachelor's.

All the best.
