Canadianfly:
Lol. Most of the information and responses to questions on this page are INCORRECT. This is why we tell people to read through the past threads. All the questions asked here, have scenarios played out in the previous threads.

However if you don't read or research you'll take the incorrect responses on here and run with it. I won't go into deciphering what ones are incorrect but most of the answers on this page are false. Good luck to the folks asking the question. You're better off reading through the previous parts and page 0 to get CORRECT answers.

Saintp:


You don make me fear ooo. I asked a question about removing spouse work experience in EE profile. I had already included it while creating the profile even though it added no point and I was told to remove it on the profile else I would have to provide references for it post ITA. I have already removed it from the profile. Is it correct? It wasn't specifically mentioned anywhere that is why I'm asking.

fantababy:
Thank you @mcstan18.

This is exactly my case. Hubby & I's ECA was estimated to be out January 8th. Surprisingly, hubby's ECA was ready the next day (Dec 15th) after acceptance of all certificates. I thought mine will also be ready soon as my certificates have also been accepted. I jumped into pool and got ITA (Dec 20th).

But people are confusing me, people like you say, it doesnt matter as long as ECA will be out before 3mths expiration. But another set is saying I should decline, that chnage in ECA date is misrepresentation.

Please seniors in the house, can you shed your view on this matter.

Hubby & I have similar qualifications (UK masters). So I am sure mine will also be evaluated as equivalent Canadian Masters. I do not see change in ECA date as misrepresentation.

Please advice further. Thank you.

Emmasonic4me:
Please where did all these ideas of getting ITA before ECA come from? Over and over, it's been advised to start ECA earlier before sitting for IELTS.

Let's try and remove the "get-it-quick" syndrome before someone gets 5 years ban for misrepresentation.

Again, it pays to read. Folks read!!

stonecoldcafe:


Oga sir, I'm still reading the 2nd part of this thread while following up with the 3rd anytime I get the chance. Besides someone already responded to me. Don't try to shame anyone here cos they asked what you may term silly question.

You may choose to evaluate both your bsc & msc degree as it will give you more points improving your chances of ITA.

mcstan18:


One needs to be shrewd when doing stuff such as this. It is noteworthy that during evaluation (by WES particularly) you get an estimated date of completion of evaluation after verification is done. With that, ECA shouldn't be a limitation to creating/maintaining a profile. At least have that profile up and running in case you're caught in the web of a CRS cut-off tie breaker.

You may still create your profile as soon as you have a reference number from WES. All you need to do is add the 'IMM' suffix to your WES reference number and you're fine.
Assuming your WES reference number is 1234567, that means in the field for your ECA report number, you should fill in 1234567IMM.

Where it is certain that ECA won't be ready 3 months after ITA is gotten, kindly decline ITA and get back into the pool ASAP to be eligible for another draw.

Happy boxing day

bbaby84:


Wrong information sir. This is basic misrepresentation.

Canadianfly:


@ bolded, what do you see it as? Why do you think CIC bothered to include a placeholder for date of evaluation report? If the date is irrelevant, it won't be there.

Aunty Fanta, I saw the mini testimony you gave a few pages back on how far you've come and giving God glory. Only for you to get ITA without His glory? So you wan help God give you the PPR? Does He need your help by you cutting corners?

Ask yourself these questions, you will know the right thing to do.

Canadianfly:


How can you post a link yet write an incorrect answer on here? You didn't understand the post in the link abi wetin

I guess now we should also ask folks to comprehend what they read. Na wa. This part 3 is full of incorrect information.

Canadianfly:


The guy has guyman spirit in him

kunmi5:
Nothing incorrect here, we don't form our conditions/rules, its clearly stated on the official immigration website.

Please check this link - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/criteria-comprehensive-ranking-system/grid.html

Someone with an evaluated masters degree has more points than one with just an evaluated bachelors degree.

Copying it out for you again!!!
From that link, a married applicant if with masters can attain 126 point towards express entry while if with Bachelors - 112 points, if with 2 or more degrees/diploma - 119. If for a Single applicant, it is 135, 120, 128 points respectively.

Do not confuse people here. Comprehending what we read, isn't it good he/she evaluates the Masters and get more points than leaving it out
Na simple english here na!!

mcstan18:


lol. It's no guyman spirit sister. My former colleague who has already landed did exactly the same thing and I'm very certain he did. Only thing is that he already knew when his ECA report would be ready, as WES advised. That date didn't change, he used it and the rest is his Canadian PR history. Like I said earlier on, decline ITA if you do not know the date your report would be ready. I do not see misrepresentation in this. Worst case, you receive ECA before the estimated date which isn't a big deal on its own.

Inasmuch as it's not advisable to cut corners, we can also seek for more efficient ways of achieving the same result. Especially where it's been tested and it worked. I already did same for myself and that's why I'm cool with making it public. If anyone thinks it's not worth it, they had better left it out.

kunmi5:
Bro,
No vex. I'll advise you chose to ignore some responses as long as you get answers to your questions.
Nigeria is such a place that reading culture isn't the in-thing, you really don't need to have a reading culture or be an excellent reader to be successful, wealthy or fulfilled, you even get to pay readers as a business owner while you manage or supervise BUT that shouldn't draw us back to read when the need arises.

Canadianfly:


Is this the fancy word for FRAUD?

Bros, Igbo people will say...chi mmadu ni'ine di iche find out what that means. Good luck.

mcstan18:


What is fraudulent about "your report will be ready on January 33, 2099" and then you create an EE profile using same information? I'm ready to learn here so please help me.

I am Igbo and I understand what that means

CanadianEnginee:








Abeg, make Una let me chop my Christmas snake meat in peace.

Chai, but Nigerians can cut corners eh

MSc and Bsc now evaluated as 2 or more certificates??
Omo, na fuel scarcity dey cause this one.

elfmann:

It doesn't affect CRS score after AOR... That is why pple whose future spouses can't contribute or don't want them stressed exclude then.. Marry them after AOR, bring in photos, marriage cert, payments and updated pof. Arabian doc did it. But if she not contributing points doesn't take u away from possible ITA threshold, marry and do everything at once.

Guitarlife:

Canadianfly what is your take on this ?

Na this same way you dey argue that 25% of pension fund couldn't be used, and you posted all your links...only to be proved wrong. Lol.

Na your type dey argue blindly. You posted Dupyshoo's post as a link where she clearly says evaluating MSc alone suffices for an applicant with BSc and MSc. You now added your own interpretation to mean one can evaluate both of them to get more points. How Biko? Lol

Bros, abeg before you argue anything again on here and mislead folks, understand.

If one has MSc and BSc: Evaluate ONLY MSc.
If one has BSc, PGD, HND and/or OND: Evaluate both to claim "two or more certificates"

MSc whether single or married carries more points than "two or more certificates"

Hope you finally understand it, and stop misleading folks.

kunmi5:
We shouldn't treat contrasting views as an act of war.
Kindly stop refering to irrelevant past post especially when its been trashed, back-up with references, accepted by every party (EVEN ME)

Further to the ECA issue in question. Dupsychoo is correct, but is it the only way possible?
Even though single evaluation of Masters gives you what you want, I dont see any reason why one should leave out other degrees when you wont get charged per degree (For WES ECA though). At least for mine, I wasnt charged extra for MBA, BSc in a single evaluation. You only get charged when you update a new degree after evaluation certificate/statement has been finalised.
(You might want to leave it out such if facing problems getting transcripts for lower degrees)
Whats your take on this?

Kindly, lets reply without flaring tempers. Its not my intention to insult, have a tussle of words or have the last say. We're all here to learn.
Hoping to hear from you.
