If you wish to claim points for your work experience in your current work place, then yes - you will need a 'Letter of Experience' from your employer. The letter must follow a specific format, which can be found on the CIC website, and can be addressed to Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

Thank you very much. I am studying medicine in the Caribbean (will finish this year). I used my B.Sc. and M.Sc. obtained in Nigeria for the application and the work experience I got in Nigeria. The grey areas for me are the fact that 1) I don't have any pay slip for that job cos its been a while so I submitted a reference letter from my former boss and my employment contract. Will that be sufficient? 2) To prove my financial status, my mum sent the money to my account and swore affidavit that its a gift which would not be taken back. I hope this will not work against me cos I couldn't build my account as required (I am just a student).
Finally, I woke up this morning to see a mail saying myCIC account has been updated, but when I logged into the account, nothing was updated. everything was exactly the way it was. Please has anyone experienced this before?

First, do you know you can request for information on your file? But you need someone in Canada to that for you.
It's called GCMS (Global Case Management System), the report has valuable information on the current status and future processing of your application. Find the link here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-atip.asp
To your question 1. They may ask you for it and account statement showing salary will do 2. Affidavit is fine & 3. That mail is called 'Ghost mail'. Nothing special, lots of people got it.

Just in case you don't have anyone in Canada, you can request your GCMS from www.visafile.info or gcmsnow.com but it costs $23-$25

Thanks for your response. i really appreciate it. My problem now is I don't have that account anymore. Infact I don't have any Nigerian account at all. I can't remember any detail of the account apart from the fact that it was a GTB account. It was an e-account and was useless to me when I left Nigeria in 2012. I never knew I was gonna need it. chai.

mehn I just want to know if going to canada via the student route (maybe masters in pub.health etc) has any swift advantage for PR waka? I know the programmes change there, like we have Canadian experience and all but can you actually continue the same application started before entering Canada for study?

Thanks.

Hello house,

I don't have my degree certificate yet. Does IQAS process ECA with statement of result?

I av had much interest in relocating to Canada but my constraint is that when I checked through cig.com, I realized that the experience they are talking about is canada experience. I haven't traveled out of this country Nigeria before, how can I have Canada experience. It shows that I can't apply. Can anyone please advise me how I can go abut it even without canada experience except 7 years of experience in my profession which among the listed profession for the federal skilled workers, express entry. I will appreciate ur contributions. Thanks

There are no constraints With your work experience. If your job experience in Nigeria fits into Noc A, B, or 0 you are good to go. You can go ahead and start the process.

Your statement of result should be fine. If you are not sure you can check their website to confirm.
I used my statement of result for Wes and had no trouble.

Hello all. It's nice meeting you guys and I'm so excited to be here. I have started my processing as well as written the English proficiency test but i will like to involve a consultant now. I was introduced to one but would like to find out if anyone knows him and if he's genuine. His name is Rich Global travels in Ibadan. Any info on him. I'm also open to suggestions. How bless you all

ugoiyke79e:



first of all, i be woman abeg. make una change d bros to sis jorrr @ ebho and esosa
1) wen u register on physicianapply, u will be given some documents to download and take to a lawyer or notary public. u will also have to notarize a photocopy of your mbbs, data page of your international passport and a passport size photograph.
2) u will post all d above to canada by mail not by scan pls.( except if they recently changed d procedure shaa)
3) they will look through these documents and either accept or reject it. if accepted, they will scan and upload it into your profile and u or any other person will be able o see it online.
4) one of d documents u will fill, sign, and send is a consent/authorization for them (through ECFMG) to request verification from your univ that u completed and graduated there as u claim. for me, my registrar was contacted. if no response frm your schl, u will be informed on who to contact at ur schl to reply them.

5) once your verification scales thru, u can then request for an eca report- at a cost... u will be given both an e-copy and a hard copy posted by mail.
6) regarding time line, frm opening a physicianapply.ca account to receiving ma eca report took about 4-5mnths. most of d delay came from me.
hope these help u and anyone concerned.

Thanks for this info @ugokiye, how are you doing and how is your waka going at the moment? (what stage are you now).

I finally started MCC in terms of making an account and paid the 278 dolls. I have filled up my profile and even the Source Verification request!
I haven't clicked "finalize" because I want to confirm from you if its possible for me to do my notarisation from Nigeria even though I currently reside in Saudi Arabia!(that shouldn't be a problem right?)

I say this because this place ehn, I have accessibility issues and takes time to do anything official. So i think it will be faster if I scan all the documents (certificate, passport data page, passport photo and signed consent/release form to Naija).

Lastly, if i choose Naija, must the originals be cited? because my international passport is with me. Anyways my certificate sef is in Naija, and I can scan my passport photograph right?

Pleas what do you think/advice.

Thanks!!

You will not need a consultant if you follow the thread thoroughly.

My opinion.

You don't need an agent,the gurus on this thread know far more about the whole process than most agents. Read through and then go ahead to ask questions

Pls house,how do I evaluate my B.Pharmacy for express entry,is it through WES or a licensing body?

hi. i think you should notarise your documents in Saudi. you currently reside there and would obviously be claiming points for your current period of employment there as your EE app progresses so i don't see that as a problem. All you need is to locate a notary public. it takes only a few minutes. they view the original and then stamp and sign the photocopy.
