Please if someones NOC requires Completion of secondary school and the person has a masters, will that be any issue?

Emmasonic4me:

Finally, I have escaped the snares of BC after 3 attempts.

Thanks to everyone here for the time and effort expended to assist each other.

I return all the Glory to God.

Saintp:
Thank God for his mercies. We didn't Max out our language scores but I guess this should be enough for ITA.
Spouse (PA): LRWS 8,8.5,7.5,7
Me: LRWS 7,7,7.5,6

This is our first attempt and I think we have to go with it instead of me rewriting to get 8777.Our CRS is 448 but my ECA is not yet out, so our CRS as at today is 440.
I don't know if it is best to wait till my ECA comes out hopefully ending of next month so that we enter with 448 or just enter straight away with 440.

Thank you Jesus, I have been praying for a Christmas gift. And God gave me a lovely ielts result
Listening - 9
Reading - 7.5
Writing - 7.5
Speaking - 7
My speaking test was terrible, my part 2 I spoke for just 1 minute I had already run out of ideas, my part 3 felt like jamb questions , examiner was asking me questions like how environmental problems affected the use of land, and plenty questions that didn't even make sense to me . I only mustered few words I could barely speak fluently because the questions were strange unlike my first speaking test.
I just thank God
This is my second and final attempt (for general ielts).

happytbaby:
No ma/sir. However, check that the NOC is O, A or B. If not, it will not be eligible for Express Entry

Emerson500:
Hello guys, I've been silently follwing this thread for a while now. Want to thank you guys for the good job you are doing here.

Just got my IELTS now. First attempt LRSW - 8.5, 8.5, 7, 7. All thanks to God for the success. @einsteino and @yetunde84 thank you for the materials you shared. Was really helpful.

I have concluded my ECA for my MSc alone. Submitted my application on the 11th of october, my Uni requested a copy of my certificate and sent it along with my transcript to WES the following day as it was a UK institution and the process was seamless. Got my report on the 7th of November. Just getting ready to dive into the pool now. I should be swimming in lane 450

Licious07:
And my ielts result is out...L8 R9 S8 W6.5. Can't explain how I feel right now .

einsteino:
I understand everyone wishes for his case to be different, to be that one that has grace written all over his story.. but we must understand for the large majority, this wouldn't be the case and that doesnt make the story any less glorious. Not everyone's journey would be a cakewalk, that's life.

Yes we wish everyone the best and exceptional speed but we know it can't materialize for everyone regardless of how much we pray, else the operational word wouldn't be "exceptional".

We would not all have IELTS in our first shot, not everyone would have POF before ITA, some would have PPR in 18days and some after several months, PUM for some would be 14days and some 6weeks... but by God, so long as there is any chance at all, we gear up and keep on, till we achieve our goal.. we are not faintheart!

PR is PR regardless of the timelines and hurdles, we have lived through worse already.. having the opportunity and means at all is all that matters. So please and please expect hurdles as much as you anticipate grace, that way nothing shocks you.

May the odds be in our favour, but if it isnt, we shall not despair! we shall weather whatever storm it brings.

DereI:
I'm so happy right now.... My fourth IELTS attempt.

DatechMan:
I am sorry guys for my absence.

Settling in Canada during this winter after all, may not be one of the best decisions I have ever made.
If anyone must come here in winter, make sure you gather enough liver o.
It takes time to get used to it. It's -10c today. It could be worse.

Emmasonic4me:

Kpele the Lord is ur strenght

bigbroda:
Guyz, I got Nova Scotia province nomination on tuesday and relaxing in the pool with a CRS of 900+expecting ITA next week wednesday by God's grace.

I have the following post ITA questions to ask:
1. Where should each/all documents be addressed to. Documents like PoF, employer reference letter, etc.
2. Has anyone successfully paid the application fee with a naira mastercard before especially someone with a family size of 4(considering the amount)
3. The issue of passport photograph, will I be required to upload for every member of the family(including toddlers) or just that of my spouse and I? Also, do I need to resnap another passport at PPR stage after snapping now for submission? Considering the fact that dates and some other info. have to be written at the back of the passports. If PPR comes like 4-6 months, hope the passport won't be too old since they usually say recent passport. How many copies of passports are required?
4. If a substantial amount of money(say 2M) is transferred from spouse's account to PA's account, is there any need to explain it or do gift deed especially when the narrative is something like "spouse immigration support"
5. What item(s) do I need to take to Alagbon, Lagos to obtain police clearance? Will I get it that same day? Who is required to do clearance? Only the PA or with spouse and children?
6. What items to I need to take along for medicals? What will be issued after the medicals at the hospital? Can we(including kids) eat before going for it as it's not advised if sugar level has to be checked?
7. What options do I have in terms of hospitals? The names and locations.
8. Can someone please describe how to drive down to Alagbon and the hospitals?


So sorry for the numerous questions. Just trying to avoid stories that touch ni. lol


Wish everyone here success in this pursuit.


One luv!

You need to go to the bank, raise a bank draft of N15,000 in favour of British Council.
When you get there, your ask for your TRF and tell them you want to apply for EOR, you’d be given a form then asked to hand over the result and the bank draft.

einsteino:


here you go. May the odds be in your favour.
