1. No, it is even advisable you initiate evaluation of your credential alongside your IELTS
2. It must be sent directly from the institution
3. In fact, evaluating only your MSc. will suffice
4. Different surnames do not matter. I used my maiden name and it did not matter. However, it will be better if all the documents you will be submitting have the same name. For instance, is your bank account still in your maiden name?

My documents have different names.

I've my maiden name on WES, IELTS, bank accounts, employment letters, certificates and even entered the pool with my maiden name but got employers' reference letters in my married name (with reference to my maiden name though) and intend changing my passport to my married name and use that for eAPR post ITA as i would prefer to have my married name as a PR later on.

Foresee any problems?

Good day all, we have an issue and need your opinion. My husband's middle name was written as his first name and first name as middle name in his passport (as in a twist of names)
pls will that be an issue in the processing of our PR starting from academics credentials evaluation?
Can a note of explanation cover this? Or should he Go for correction?

Pls can anyone help with an immigration officer that can be of help with the names correction without cutting our neck at Abuja? I learnt official price is 7k but they charge as high as 70k. Pls help a sister. Thk u

pls are we supposed to upload our ECA results on the e-APR??

If you are the Principal Applicant, I do not think it will be necessary for your spouse to submit a detailed work experience reference.

Hello House,i just finished filling and submitting the express entry form, and the message i get is Profile Ineligible. Did i make a mistake somewhere? Or is it because i have not registered with the job bank? And there is an EE application number. What do i do?

I think i have seen where i made the mistake. In the place of work history i made a mistake in the NOC which is different from her NOC. I am having difficulty changing it,what do i do? Do i delete the profile and create another one?

Hello House......

Thanks for the Info Y'all have been putting up here......Really helpful.

I have applied for the EE Pool. My CRS is at 441. I have a BSC. (WES approved), perfect age bracket, Scored Perfect scores in IELTS (Cant be any better) and over 4 years work experience in an approved NOC work.

I am trying really hard to improve my score, because the cut off has never being lower than 453 CRS.

Question: Can I use other professional certificates such as IWCF or other work related certificates I may have obtained during the course of my numerous work trainings? If I choose 2 or more certificates in EE, my score goes up to as high as 474+. I want to be sure so as not to be misrepresented.

I have also tried contacting WES. Their website only says School Certifications........How about professional certificates? How can I get those accredited? I even tried calling WES........ I was on a queue and the next agent was to be available in 45 mins (Non Toll Free Call)........ In this hard economy......(No fuel, High Dollar....lolz)

Please anyone with useful information about professional certificates in Oil and Gas that may be used should advice.

If there are other ways to improve my scores, I would appreciate those as well.

NB: Working on PNP and Job offers (Long thing).......Any advices on any of these would be greatly appreciated too.

Thanchu (smiles)

Good morning house,

Please guide me. My exam is in 3wks and i need to jack up my performance on writing and reading skills (especially Reading). Please tell me EXACTLY what i need to do/materials i need to use and if possible the no of hours you think i need to put in daily to get the best scores, my target is 8.5 in both Reading and Writing.Thank you all for the good job you are doing here. BTW, i am preparing for the General Training exam. Also, are the Cambridge practice questions for Academic or GT, i am finding the Cambridge Reading questions there very CHALLENGING and is my 3wks timeline unreasonable? PLEASE HELP A SOUL. Thanks y'all

The only international certification I've seen favourably assessed by WES is ACCA.

You might have to do Masters or go the PNP route.

Thank you sir! Just wanted to be sure.

"To Whom it may concern" is better but my bank insisted the ref has to be addressed so I used.

Well I haven't seen any Nigerian that indicated attending the information session, So I guess example it is for us. Lol.
My noc code and yours is the same,mine is in a law firm.
I wil still need to get my ielts done before I can email them. But do update me on their reply when you do email them.
I'm looking at attending either the US or Dubai one. But Dubai will surely be less expensive since I and my family might go together. I heard spouse of principal applicants might need to attend too. I'm not sure abt this though.

Apply for a remark in reading maybe you can get 7.0 which will automatically give you a CLB of 9

What do you think about uploading the same ref letter at the 2 different spaces for job ref? because the PA worked in the same organization 2 periods (masters inbtw) and the 2 periods are explicitly stated on the ref. it is also the same NOC
