This CIC people sef.
I am an FSW 2014 applicant. Medical results received since Sept 2015.

I didn't hear from them untill this week. I got a mail on Tuesday asking me to resend my statement of account along with the update form 5669 (background declaration)

This will be the third time am submitting acct statement.

First in 2014 along with initial application, secondly in Sept when I sent my medical results, the statement was requested for again. At that time (sept), I had almost double the required amount in my acct (Acct A).

After I submitted in sept, I didn't hear from them again. So I transferred some of the money out (for personal reasons) around January 2016. The remaining balance was still above the required amount. Later on when the money returned, I had it paid into another of my bank accounts (Acct B)

Now I got a mail from them on Tuesday asking for a bank statement and updated form 5669.

The remaining balance in the original acct (Acct A) is still more than the required amount by abt 100k even after using marked up figures

$12, 000 * 150 = 1.8m

(Actual amount required is $11, 931 & CAD rate is less than 150)

The question is : Should I use the Acct A statement as it is or should I transfer from Acct B acct into Acct A to consolidate and double the amount required?

So ican is irrelevant here... Only acca then.
But I am still combining the ACCA with my Bsc and you said it's equivalent to 3 years Bsc. What's the essence of the acca then if it's the same as Bsc. Sorry for my questions o.

Thank you so much

Hello Everyone.
Sorry for bringing you all back with this question.

To be Eligible for the E.E do you need to follow the result given to you by the CRS link or the ''Come to Canada'' [check your eligibility] Express Entry Pool link on their website.

I do hope you understand what I mean.
The CRS gives a number, mine is sadly 389. But when i answer the questions on the E.E. link, it says that ''Based on your answers, you appear to be eligible for Express Entry''

Please explain, so i know if I should forget this based on my CRS Score and face my miserable job here! Or continue with trying for the E.E



Thank you all

Tried sending Zandora a personal message but that didn't work

I am not sure I have the accurate dates in my head but I'll try.

I received an ITA in July and submitted my first application in September. 3rd of September. My application was rejected on the 9th of September because I murked up my police report. The police report from when I lived in the UK was outdated. Lol if I had been more diligent in my research I won't have made that error.

Got back into the pool and received another ITA the following week or thereabouts.

Submitted New application 1st October. Received AOR a couple of days after.
Medical passed a few days after that.

Then the long silence. BG check in progress on February 28. PPR March 2.

Yay! Still on the journey so the experience continues.


This forum as well as Canadavisa.com -very useful and helped me keep calm. Lol Pretty much confirmed the 5month Mark for EE Outland applicants.

All the best.make sure you have all your ducks in a row before you apply.

Oh one more thing.... it takes about 8 weeks to have your money refunded after you've been rejected. So just be patient.

ssemire:
Good morning guys. Please I have not yet paid my RPRF. can this affect my application? Was not able to pay all fees at the point of submitting my application due to limits. I want to pay but don't know how to go about it.

primeson1:
Guys please help o. I want to confrim again if I can include my OND certificate and transcript for evaluation by WES. I entered University through direct entry (OND).

I saw this on their faq page :

I was exempted from part of my program (e.g. year 1) due to prior study completed. Do I need to provide transcripts for all prior study as well?
Yes. WES will require academic transcripts for all study leading to your qualification, including prior study that granted you study exemptions. WES will not issue an evaluation report that does not include a complete record of your study.

And how long does it take WES to issue a reference number if I pay by Monday 7th, March.

Thank you

It can be a daunting task taking a decision in the situation you are in but, the pros are more than the cons. Yeah, the fear of the unknown may be there but don't forget, the greatest risk is not to take a risk at all.

Don't know what your level of education is but if your husband were to assess his own, it's deemed the equivalent of Masters and helps one to have a higher score overall than someone with a Bsc however, age also determines your score and you have an edge there. Besides, if the school your hubby graduated from is in Nigeria, getting his MCC done can really take time and it's also costly but, he doesn't have a choice as it's needed for him to even be able to register and take the qualifying exams.

From my assessment, if you have a Masters, you are better as the Principal Applicant and using WES to do evaluation of your qualification will be faster than waiting for hubby's own which can only be done with MCC but if it's a Bsc you have, hubby will be better as PA but you will need to be proactive in finding a way by which you can get his MCC done very fast so that you can apply this year.

There are 3 stages of the qualifying exams to be able to practice as a doctor in Canada and from what I've heard, if you pass stage 1, you can use it to get a job. This stage 1 can be done remotely(don't need to explain what I mean here, a lawyer knows bigger grammar than an average person ) which can help him get a job faster so, no need fearing a future in Canada.

Finally, concentrate very much on your IELTS, whoever will be the PA between you two must score 8.5L, 8R, 7.5S&W, that's what will ensure you guys can score above 400 which may be necessary. Meanwhile, what kind of job are you doing? If it's something other than practicing law, one might be able to see if you can apply for provincial nomination

vcole:
Hi. You can google the crs tool and use it to calculate an estimated maximum possible score for you and for your hubby to decide who would be best as a principal applicant. Express entry usually favours applicants 30yrs or less with a professional or master's degree and clb level 9 and above on ielts. so, when you use the tool, fill in "proposed" ielts scores and see if y'all can hit 400 minimum (as that would guarantee an invitation by Ontario to apply for their PNP and a possible 600 points if it's successful) whoever has the highest "possible" points should be the principal applicant.
I do not know any medic who has successfully immigrated to Canada via EE or FSW. it will be great if any here can share their experience.

zandora:


I don't really know because I haven't heard of anyone submitting anything apart from their certificate. Nevertheless it may fly since he'll also be submitting his ECA however I'm not sure.

ZannyShasha:


Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate the help.and im devouring it all up. I'm trying to read up all I can and I'm just learning the abbreviations and the lingo on here. You guys are doing such an amazing job.

I have a Masters degree and No, I'm not in litigation practice. I work in healthcare. So do you think provincial nomination might be the way to go? How does that work? Which province is best? How long does it take generally. Or should we stick with the FSW. I'm just trying to weigh all options available.

Also, I have a sister I'm presently seeing thru Uni, can I add her as my primary dependent and go with her even though she's 20?

Thanks and Happy Sunday

Good day house,

Well done to the brain behind this particular forum, as well as all the contributors. It has been very enlightening.

Please, do assist me with answers to the following questions:

1. I have a National Diploma (ND) & Higher National Diploma (HND). Do I need to submit both to WES for verification as a request for my Canadian FSWP application or can I forgo the ND and get the HND alone verified?

2. If I am to use both the ND & HND, will WES, charge me separately for both transcripts or do I get billed once, since they are coming from the same applicant?

3. Also, I know I will need a reference number when submitting my transcripts through my school; Do I need to pay the application fee to WES before I receive the reference number, or can I go ahead and apply on WES webpage to get the reference number and pay later on?

4. How much does WES charge for the verification of applicant's transcripts? Also, what is the turn around time to get feedback from WES?

Thank you HOUSE...

edababa007:


WES will issue you a reference number immediately you register and you can pay later.

JesusDWay:


You will need to send both ND and HND to WES for the evaluation and they wont bill you separately, its just the single amount they charge everyone. Meanwhile, what you will be doing at the moment is not verification, verification is done by WES after you have initially sent them copy of your certificate and transcript sent by school. WES then sends verification request to your school to confirm the transcript came from them and when school responds, thats when WES eventually does the evaluation.

You will get the reference number after you have paid to WES and the amount is either 233 or 322 CAD, depending on whether you want them to send the result to you via normal mail or courier.

Turnaround time depends on when WES gets verification response from your school, which is definitely after they must have first gotten the transcript. They stated on their website that they process the evaluation in 20days or business days(cant say precisely now, check their website) after they have gotten the verification response from school.

Hello, what I saw while registering was 200 CAD and not 233 CAD. Please note

Bcolah:


Hi Zandora. He didn't assess his credentials. Is it compulsory for him to do so? The only place we claimed points for him was IELTS.
Is he meant to also evaluate his credentials?

XavierCad:
Thank you for the response.

Do I need to send both the transcripts and certificates to WES? I already have my certificate at hand and schools don't issue certificates more than once.

Thank you.

primeson1:


Please guys I need answers... JesusDWay, zondora, everybody. I need to go to my school on Tuesday

zandora:


If you entered using your OND and started from 200 level then yes you have to include your OND credentials since you entered through direct entry otherwise you won't be assessed as having a Canadian BSc since you only spent 3 yrs at uni. However if you used your OND to enter and started from 100 level then you do not need to include it since you would've spent 4 years at uni.
