Kirri: This varies depending on the institution. Some schools don't ask for anything and just do the needful. Others like mine (uniben) asked me to pay the same amount for verification which I did |

Bcolah: You need to submit your medicals and Pcc accordingly once you get your ITA.. It's required, and not uploading them will cause a delay with your app 1 Like |

GboyegaD: What about the NOC, WES? There is bound to be a rate-limiting step. And I would need a Canadian practicing license to proceed at the clauses put on regulated professions. Except if there is any other way I would be evaluated as a non-professional, then proceed to do the needful upon landing. So, I just want to take my time and figure things out, while praying for favorable immigration policy statuos ante. Finally, thank you for your passion and compassion. |

iphie25:What are the challenges you have with filling the form? You have two options , either 322.05 CAD or 235 CAD. The latter is cheaper because that option means WES will send the ECA report using normal post like NIPOST to your specified address, this could take over a month to get to you, unlike the former option that offers express delivery via courier , and it should get to you in 5 days. I think the value of 1 CAD would have dropped from 275naira, 1 USD = ~1.37 CAD so, i implore you to seize this moment when Naira is appreciating and get it done. 1 Like |

irondome: Thanks for your suggestions, I appreciate. She scored the following in December 2014 Listening-6.5, Reading-7, Writing-7, Speaking-7.5. Overall score-7 In October 2015, she attempted it again and got the following Listening-8.5, Reading-7.5, Writing-6.5, Speaking-7.5. Overall score-7.5 We have been fiddling with the thought of Australia but hesitated because of the reported higher costs of living and seemingly lower childcare benefits for immigrants. With the above recommendations, we shall consider it seriously. Thanks again ![]() |

40manlappy: Try and re-evaluate (modified: you can't re-evaluate again, as the review period has elapsed ) your writing, you may just get it reviewed upward to band 7, which fetches you additional 50 CRS points. Honestly, she is almost there, in fact, I see IELTS as an easier route for her than MSc. You would also need an IELTS score of band 7 across all modules for Australian Migration program which fetches you 10 points. It would be difficult to get in without the 10 points. |

irondome: You mean a score of 7 across board could fetch us additional 50 CRS points? Wow! ![]() I will encourage and support her to rewrite IELTS while keeping our eyes on Australia and maybe, New Zealand too ![]() The only snag is that Australia prefers IELTS Academic ![]() Thanks for the insightful information ![]() |

40manlappy: For IELTS Australia prefer General not Academic, however, you would still need to score 7 band in each of the modules to stand a chance of migrating. This is because your wife's occupation (Accountant and financial auditor) is highly competitive for Australia with applicants in the 65 points range stuck in the pool for several months. Bottom line, you need all the points you can get, and a 7.0 band in each module fetches you an extra 10 points, 25 for age (she is 33), 10 points for experience (8 years would have fetched her 15 points, but she has got 7 years), 15 points for degree. To shore up your point, you may also lean on state sponsorship to get additional 5 points. The 50 point I wrote about was for Canadian PR. Applicants with a minimum of 2 or more degree ECA and a CLB band of 9 in IELTS are entitle to the 50 additional points under transferable skill. Bringing this home to your spouse situation; she has got a Masters and a CLB of (10 in listening and speaking, 9 in reading, but 8 in writing). Because of her CLB of 8 in writing (IELTS of 6.5), you guys lost 50 points. If she re-attempts IELTS now and scored (L-R-W-S --8-7-7-7), your CRS would jump to 400+ and you can easily go the PNP route. Personally, I think the best option is for her to re-write the IELTS, considering her performance in the last attempt. She got pretty close. In fact, you guys should have considered re-evaluation before the expiration of the review window; apparently, it's too late. In summary, which ever option you settle for (Australia or Canada), she would have to re-sit for IELTS. Honestly, with your wife's ielts result, don't give up on Canada yet. if |

Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by SlowlybtSurely: 4:49am On Feb 25, 2016 |
noblealuu: Let me come in here. I'm in a regulated medical profession too and had to make enquiries. You do not need to be licenced to apply for PR (except you are going through the PNP route). You only need it before you can get employed in your profession when you get to Canada. I'm the principle applicant and plan to start the registration process for licencing from Nigeria once I submit my application post ITA. That way, I will be left with the bridging program and final exams on landing. I suggest you apply. Try to max out on your IELTS scores, so you can get a good CRS, enough to receive direct ITA without going through the PNP route. 3 Likes |
