I am using 31 here, just in case ECA delays you till after your birthday.
Your family's CRS without stressing wifey with ECA or IELTS = 432
CRS with wife doing ECA alone (bachelor's degree), no IELTS = 440
CRS with your wife writing IELTS alone, no ECA and scoring 6 in all modules = 444
CRS with wife doing both ECA (Bachelor's) and IELTS (6 across the board) = 452

My Opinion:
1. If you or wifey has a sibling in Canada that you can claim points from, then she should not bother with ECA or IELTS.
2. If there's no sibling in the equation, she should write IELTS alone and not bother about ECA. I'm pretty sure she will score better than 6 each in LRWS and 444+ is a very good score to fetch ITA. Besides, 75k (68k with MOD) is cheaper than the cost of ECA fee + school transcript request + courier fees. Also two weeks wait for IELTS result (or 3 days with CBT) is shorter than months for ECA.

Walahi I could have done anything to avoid hubby writing ielts but birthday is on 14th so CRS will be so bad. If u see how am praying for 6666 across board from him ehn. Hubby no like exam at all
75k is too much in this dispensation but what can one do. Anything to move this ministry forward o jare

Ifeoma77:

Hubby might shock you with an excellent result. Izz not today that men started doing IELTS submarine studying while their wives will be thinking that they are not interested.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you, the ministry must move to the permanent site

Happy Sunday everyone, I recently applied for a remark with British Council and someone advised on this platform that one should send a mail to info@cambridgeassessment.org.uk and copy BC Nigeria. I sent the follow-up mail but I received a reply from the former that they have nothing to do with remark. Please is there another way I can follow up on the remark?

Thanks Fam

Thanks a great deal. I am better informed of what to do now!
On the issue of having 5 years work experience from 4 different establishments but same job designation, Will it be an issue for me?

misspriceless:
Hello everyone, please I need help. I want to try for this express entry thing, I have written ielts yesterday and I am waiting for my result but I don't have any valid work experience in my field, I only have NYSC, does anybody know how possible it is to use that as work experience? I would have found a way to get work experience but I have been travelling a lot in and out of african countries and my passports have been stamped, what can I do please?

Mummychichi:



Hi @pyruvateluv, i really don't think you should stress over it. I sent mails and even called. Those guys will keep referring you back to BC Nigeria. When i called, the call centre agent was not even aware of anything called EOR. They're not like MOD that respond positively to EOR enquiry.

Just pray and keep your fingers crossed.

Good evening guyz,
I just decided to start the Canada express entry process. I have a BSC in accounting, am a chartered account and also have a diploma in IFRS(ACCA). Actually confused where to start from and which of the qualification I should use.

paulista:
Pardon my curiosity as am well aware this would have been answered in the previous thread..I don search tire

Just started this journey today and as a fresh applicant, do I have a chance with only my degree in Engineering and four years experience in banking or any need for PGD to supplement my degree cert as I don't have masters?

Jennypharb1:
thank you, I just did it and it's 431, I don't think it's enough, what else can I do?

A number of people here have used NYSC work experience and gotten permanent residency. But that may not be your only problem. Why don't you search for CRS calculator on Google and try to simulate points with your degree, ielts results, age and work experience etc or better still, just go to the first page of this thread so you'll be better informed.

Ifeoma77:

I might be wrong but I think it's the hours/week.

Stencil:


Okay but the minimum is 30 hours per week right? I'm so confused

Amandacanny:
Ifeoma, you are way too kind. It's your type of people that this country need to get better. So selfless. May your path shine brighter each day and may you be highly favored in this journey.
