No reason oo. I was the one that advised him to use IQAS after I read what you wrote. You think ICES is better? Please I need your candid opinion. Thank you.

They will just go straight to his house using his application details and unfortunately, he may be deported.

Hello, any idea of time of completion with ices after receiving all docs?

COPR:


If the institution that issued the MBA cert is not a Nigerian institution, use WES and you wont need to evaluate your WAEC/NECO but if otherwise use ICES.

IQAS is shit right now. It takes them weeks to open your transcript after receiving it, plus another 12 weeks or more.

If you use ICES, you can ask the institution to send your transcript via their official email, to save cost and time. The only drawback here is that ICES report is ONLY hardcopy and must be sent by post which costs about CAD$75.

In the US, unlawful presence itself, such as overstaying a visa, is not a criminal offense, but only a civil ground of inadmissibility. However, in the UK where your friend currently resides, overstaying one's visa is a criminal offence at any time and it is crucial for "overstayers" to seek immediate legal advice. There are serious consequences for overstaying your visa in the UK.

Since this is the case, your friend's UK-PCC might likely return unfavorable especially now that his overstay stretches back to 3 long years. I am not certain about this but from what the UK law says, he could likely have questions to answer with the home office and maybe the police.

Hello guys,

Also please whenever we see a long post, like PPR announcement posts, we don’t need to quote the whole long post, we can cut out (delete) major parts of the post and quote maybe just the first paragraph, as this will not only make the thread look tidy but it will also help with the thread not running too fast in my opinion.

Cheers

Thanks bro. It will be difficult for him to go ahead

Hello my e-fam,

Please I'm seeking advice for a friend who got her Masters degree from Edinburgh University in Scotland.

While creating her profile on the WES site, I see - "If you have completed less than one year full-time, post-secondary study, WES recommends that you also include your secondary education credential."

It says "less than one year full-time". Just to clearly understand this, does this mean she has to submit WAEC despite the fact that her country of education is Scotland?

Please advise. Thanks.

Compu001:


Thanks bro. It will be difficult for him to go ahead

darlingdadon:


Kindly read through for those having worries on how to go about getting their WAEC results Verification as required by WES.

Remaining illegal sure pass!

The first step your friend should take is to apply for UK PCC.

The content of the PCC will tell him if overstaying in the UK would affect his Canada journey or not.

In other news, WAEC don vex. See highlighted below:

You see all these European countries are not straightforward. Na xo dey will talk, enter there first you will be hearing stories. One thing I am sure of is that the number of foreign graduates that studied in Germany, is enough to fill whatever space they have. Instead of them to give them job, they will be requesting for Language skills.

Tippex my sister, I no get your message o.

Your friend overstayed in the UK and now wants to get out? That depends on how long he has overstayed (less than 90 days have little or no consequences) or reasons for his overstay (medical, visa extension etc) https://www.freemovement.org.uk/overstaying-applying-leave/
To answer your question, we both know that this "your friend" has overstayed more than 90 days and he has no genuine reasons (other than economic reason) for doing so. This is a flagrant abuse of a previous immigration rules in another country which must be disclosed in travel history. Your friend cannot eat his cake and have it. He/she should return to Nigeria before submitting ITA. I believe the overstay could be overlooked if he returns and apply from Nigeria. By the way, what's he overstaying for in the UK, running like a cockroach, collecting payments by cash with employers undercutting him every now and then because they know he can't go to the police. He has no access to social services, even his bank account can be frozen at anytime so he's probably keeping money under the bed. If I were him I'll be home since tay tay.

Dear All,

Thank you for the good work. I have been following this thread with keen interest and it has been helpful to me in my preparations.

I first did the IELTS in 2015. I got a decent overall band level of 8.0, but my listening was only 7.0, with the others as R - 8.5, S - 8.5, W - 7.0

I lost interest after that because my score was around 382. Fast forward and precisely 3 years later, motivated by my spouse, I sat for IELTS again. This time too, my overall band level is 8.0, but with much improved score in listening of 8.5, with the others as R - 9.0, S - 8.0, W - 7.0

Only yesterday, I tried creating an EE profile and realized that my CRS is 440, without my spouse as accompanying dependent. If she is to accompany me, it drops my score far lower, to 416, because she is yet to do the WES and also take the English test.

What do you advise? Should I wait until she does her WES and IELTS?

My thoughts - I do think that since the last draw closed at 440, it is better that I take my chance now, before the CRS inches higher!

I will appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you.

Evening people of God. I moved my POF from foreign account to naija account, while still maintaining the required POF.

Should I inform IRCC about this move or until they request for it?

adolfdenis:
Yea I actually have tried calling them severally but they don’t ever put me through to an agent instead telling me they can’t take calls at the moment.
