its well....God will perfect that concerning you

Thanks. I called the contact in my school's record office today. She said they did receive a paper mail, but the sent the verification by email. She claims that's how they have always done it. You think WES is not acknowledging their email and wants a paper reply instead?

My school sent the verification to WES via email. I checked the online portal for about two weeks after the email was sent but the status did not change to reflect that they have received the verification. We then sent it via courier and after about 3 working days of receiving the doc, my status change to ''documents received, evaluation in progress''. i think you should send it via courier. The school should put it in their branded envelope and stamp the envelope flap at the back(please check wes website for more details about this).

This is new to me, email reply to WES? Well, in my case it was a 'paper mail' reply to WES. And I paid to DHL it to WES.

I'll advise you to wait for another month, see if WES will acknowledge their email and update your evaluation. If not, arrange with your school to reply by paper mail. Tell them you'll pay for express mail so you can track the delivery to WES.

Goodluck!

Good morning people, please how long does it take to get the ielts report sent to u? I wrote in PH and I stay in Calabar. is there any number I can reach them on? please help.

Hello Guys,

My MBA certificate is not ready though I have completed the degree. Is it acceptable to use "Letter of Attestation" for WES application?

Please respond

Thanks

from my knowledge, it is impossible and will not be acceptable. you must submit your transcript to WES

Your transcript need to be sent directly from your school.
To apply for your transcript, you will need to go to your school and write a formal application of request. In the letter you will need to indicate the address where you want your transcript sent.
Since you are out of the country,you will need to ask someone here in Nigeria to help you out.

Most federal institutions in Nigeria now have an online transcript system,whereby you just make your transcript order online and its sent via courier within a week of request. @ least am sure of OAU's. It costs 19k dhl service charge inclusive.
So simply find out online if your school too has gone digital.All i did was google oau nigeria transcript.
Hope this helps

Hi Morgan2006

I will request for a transcriptand that will be sent to WES by my school. The letter of attestation is in place of a certificate that isnt ready.

This is good.
I hope other schools follow suit soon.

Hi. Transcript will be sent free so you have nothing to lose by trying. Give York your registration details from WES website so WES can identify transcript as yours.

The rules are sometimes not cast in stone. I did my wife's WES evaluation, i could not pay unilag for the transcript due to TSA but sent the certificate copy through a friend in Canada. Before i knew it her evaluation was completed without sending the transcript.

Hello house,

Thank you so much to everyone here supporting and encouraging one another via sharing of information,guiding,praying and encouraging its an amazing job you are all doing giving so much of your time.

I have been a silent reader for a couple of months now,Please if anyone has gone through the process of getting a University of Calabar transcript and verification i will be super glad to read from you.

Lastly,I assume Alberta does not roll with the PNP thingy please correct me if am wrong as i have been to their site and cannot find any useful guide for foreigners theirs seemed to be geared towards people already living in Alberta. We definitely have to go the PNP route Hubby is the PA[On basis of highest educational qualification]B.sc EE,Msc,Oil and gas,Finding a province that suits us is one of our major challenges now,useful suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Since your husband is an engineer, any province will do. For oil, you can target sasketchwan but you should know that engineering is a regulated profession in Canada and your husband has to go through some trainings and take some professional exams here before he can work as an engineer. In the meantime, if he has work experience, he can work as a technician till he is able to get his qualification.

At walexlo and all. Am doing a Masters Program here in York University. but am not done until next year. Is it advisable to wait to finish and use the masters degree in which case I wouldn't need evaluation. or should I just proceed with my first degree evaluation with WES. does masters carry more points.

At walexlo and all. Am doing my masters degree here at York University, Toronto. but I won't be done unail next year. Do u think it's advisable to wait to finish the program first in which case I wouldnthink need WES evaluation. or should I just proceed to do WES evaluation with my first degree. does masters carry more points ? Thank you.

Sure, a masters degree carries more marks. But whether you currently have enough points to receive an ITA depends on other factors like age, English language ability etc.

Kindly refer to the link below.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp

The current ITA marks hovers around 468 - 470.

Cheers!

Hiyah,

Do these 3 things:
1. Send the required POF via CSE and let them know that there was no place to upload the POF
2. From your MyCIC account, click on "report technical issue" on the top of your profile page and report the issue.
3. Send an email to cpc-ctd-ottawa@cic.gc.ca with the POF as attachment to let them know that a new POF was requested with no place to upload it. This will work if your visa office is Ottawa. You will need to include your name, date of birth, category of immigration and AOR date in the body of the email.
Who requested for the document? Was it Ottawa VO or Accra VO? Have you requested for GCMS note before? If you have, you will know where your application is being processed. If it is being processed in Accra, then you need to send the email to Accra VO. Unfortunately, I don't have the Accra VO email address

Thank you so much @dupyshoo!! God bless you!!
Ive done exactly what you advised and i searched and got the email on their website. so now i wait hear from them. Any idea how long it takes to respond to mails sent?

Thank you for your response,May i kindly ask if you live in Canada?I have always assumed Alberta to be the oil city so mentioning Sas as well is a huge relive even though we are open to other province by regulated i assume this applies to those with a UK degree as well.We will love to read this up if you could pls give any particular sites we can get detailed information from.Thank you

If attestation is : To whom it may concern, then forget it it wont fly.

If what you have is notification of result, then pls feel free that was what i sent to Wes and they contacted my school for transcript. Samething i used for my sinp.

I wanna believe they understand d naija factor with excessive delay in certificate after graduation.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/eca-conversion.asp

I was wondering if one gets additional points ( in my case 22 points ) for one or more certificates/diploma with a valid ECA?
i.e 119+ 22(FSW skills)

I stumbled across the link pasted above and saw this clause
Federal Skilled Worker Program factor points (if this applies) the allocated points for this criteria varies with qualification gain

Summary of my question?
Will I get 119+22 ( because I am going through the FSW into the EE pool ) for education qualification? I have a Bsc and a PGD both from the UK

@ejirostephen

I have been on the look out for any Naija on SINP PNP and I am happy to see you here.

My SINP EE Stream application was on 5th January 2016 and now ''In process''.

Do you know how long it will take for this status to change?

I know is a patience game and I have enough.

Hello @superchi pls did the SINP open for submission this April 2016?

superchi:

Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program is now OPEN.

650 applications to be accepted. I bet you, this slots will be over in 3 days.

Our Indian friends are good with this thing.

So hurry guys!

ZannyShasha:
Pls gurus, I just used the CRS tool and my score was 449... What can I do to increase it?

Alternatively, should we just bone this EE and pursue PNP?
Considering I'm a lawyer, if we go the PNP route, can it possibly favour us?
Any one here on info about PNP or we should forge ahead with EE...do we really stand a chance?

Thank y'all so much

Pls house, Still waiting for answers. Kindly assist

If you want to go the pnp route, since you have over 400 you can wait for when Ontario start issuing PT again. There are rumors that they might resume around June might be before then, but if you are invited to apply with them their application fee is 1500 $.

Since you are a Lawyer I don't think it is in demand noc in other Province. ( I might be wrong please do your own research)

If you don't already have the highest band score ielts then that might be your next step.

Is the maximum score you can get 449 or is it possible to improve on your IELTS?

If it is the maximum, then you might have to use PNP. Please note that, in most situations, you will still need to go via Express Entry even after obtaining provincial nomination.

I don't know so much about PNP so I might not be able to give you substantial information about it. The best way to go about it is to check the website for all the provinces and see which ones you will be eligible for. However, these are what I know about the PNP route:
Ontario used to invite people in the pool with scores above 400 but it seems they have reached their quota and they are no longer sending out invites.
Also, Saskatchewan has reached the quota as well.
I heard that New Brunswick opens from day 1-10 every month but I think it only takes specific professions (mostly IT)
Manitoba requires you to know someone from the province.
That's about all I know.
Forum members who have more info should please help out.

I heard it may open in June and I'll advise you to create an account now and attach documents.

The window is always too short whenever it opens because most people are just ready and standing by.

Hello all, I was wondering how to calculate my Academic IELTS

L 8.5 (CLB 10) 32pts
Reading 7.0 (CLB 9) 29points
Writing 6.0 (CLB 7) 16 points
Speaking 8.0 (CLB 10) 32 points

overall 7.5

will it be correct to claim 32+29+16+32 = 109 , for my CRS score in this section?

Which CLB level will i use for transferability (foreign work experience and foreign education)P CLB 7 i guess?

I intend to write the General IELTS version this time around ( if required)
