Hi guys!

I finally got ITA.

I was wondering, when filling my application; travel history specifically: I travelled to Ghana by road 4 years ago with my old passport, passed through Benin and Togo boarders to get there and of course my passport was stamped anyhow.

Will I need to include Togo and Benin in countries I have been to? Even though all these stamps are on my old passport and Ghana was the destination?

Do i need to include scanned pages of stamps and travel history on my old passport?

Thanks

Jugdement:


You need to include all travel in the last 10 years, so include it and quote reason/purpose as “In-Transit”.

Scan only Data page, markings and visas on your current passport. The VO will request if additional information is required.

Best Wishes.

Good morning everyone. Please can experienced ICAN people provide advice? A colleague’s wife evaluated her ICAN (2013) with WES and the result is below-

Canadian Equivalency: 2 years professional study in accounting

Remark: The credential is not comparable to a completed Canadian education credential

Does this remark make this evaluation invalid? Has anyone else evaluated with WES but did not have this additional remark? Or has anyone with this additional remark successfully used the ECA and got PPR?

Would appreciate your help. Thank you.

Macy4real200:
Good day everyone. Am glad to be here. Pls I need clarifications from the gurus in the house. Am about to start the process. I just finished my MBA with open university. I have a BSc (geology) from Nnamdi Azikiwe University. I wish to send my MBA to WES. Do u guys think NOUN certificate will be accepted by WES? Has anyone ever used NOUN? Besides I work in a bank and my noc is 6314. Hope I won't be rejected based on the fact that my first degree does not match my work. Pls I need ur input

No time wasting embark on your MBA evaluation with WES.I did mine with IQAS and it was evaluated.

Your degree does not matter.Do the needful your evaluation,write your IELTS and dive into the pool.l read chemistry and l have an MBA too from NOUN which was evaluated like l said and l also worked in a bank like many others.l was in the pool.The ITA net come and l was inside now l am at Post ITA=AOR.

Santino1:


Yes. You need to. Not to confuse you, you have to enter those details in your travel history but you don't have to scan you old passport. They only require current "valid" passport.

ITABABE:
it is not comparable meaning it won't count into points for you as far as education is concerned. Bottomline pretend she does not have the certification. Hope this helps

Bimpsy99:
Please when was this evaluation done? Asking because someone on this thread once posted a screen shot of a favourable evaluation by WES for ICAN which is what changed my mindset about whether it leads to a favourable result.

Some school of thought even has it that WES gives favourable assessment to people who assessed ICAN post 2011 under the new syllabus.

Please has any one recently evaluated ICAN? What year did you finish, when was the evaluation done and what was the outcome??

We need to know what is truly obtainable so that people can be rightly guided.

From what your friend has..it can't be regarded As a Canadian certificate and no point can be earned.

Thanks, I figured as much that it can’t be used but needed confirmation. To answer your questions, she just did the evaluation, actually just got the result in the last few days I believe and she says her ICAN is 2013.

IQAS has become really slowwwwwww...

Over 12 weeks in reality. If you know your school can respond fast to verification please go with WES o.

Guitarlife:
Good people, I am in the process of evaluating my masters but I just got information from the school that my certificate is not yet ready.
As we all know that the process of wes evaluation involves submiting the transcript together with the certificate,
Can I send my statement of result i.e notification of result that was given immediately we finished the programme ?
Will WES evaluate my degree using this notification of result and transcript before I waste alot of money sending same to wes.
Please assist all .

Bimpsy99:
Whao.. so this gist about ICAN giving a favourable evaluation is probably dependent on the officer in charge.. until we see more people come up with thier evaluation results so we can know if it's a particular year upwards that get the favourable result.

Ladon7:
Good mng , please i need help oooo. I have written ielts 3 times . the last time i had 7 in listening and 6 in reading, i have identified my problem in listening to be the multiple question, pls is their any technique i can apply ? will be writing in two weeks time
i av practised over 40 listening but still not getting this part right
pls help.

Santino1:


Sorry man, the PM thing doesn't work for me.

Well, you're gonna have to check again. Also, you have to check the other parts of your forms. For instance, you can't say you are unemployed Between May to July in personal history whereas other parts of the form e.g education or work history says you were in school/working until the end of May. Just go over all parts of the form (not just personal activities) and ensure there are no discrepancies.

Thanks again to everyone!

cuteguy201:
Hello, how about if one actually worked at the same time when running a masters program. E.g May - July, Work & May - July, M.Sc would that mean issues while filling form

MummyJaygirls:


Congrats

enocoded4life:
Congratulations @glitteringstar, may ITA and speedy PPR fall on you.

So, I got my ECA report yesterday from WES. I had asked them about a week ago to cancel the evaluation of my Bsc and evaluate only the msc as advised by @elfman, @glitteringstar and others. I sent them a fax and email for the cancellation.

Express entry profile has been created, I am now swimming in the pool, waiting for the next draw and ITA.

Wishing everyone their expected end.

Ladon7:
