There is no issue the transcript has been sorted out. Just that ICES said I have to wait for another 12 weeks. Started this process on the 17th of November 2018. They just informed me that they did not get the transcript second week of Feb 2019. I was able to resend it on the 11th of February and they said I have to wait for another 12 weeks! Should I switch to WES now? just confused. Come May we loose 5 Marks and drop to 437. Hubby is considering applying alone... jummolami: |

For PNP applicants, if you’re in the Express Entry pool, these provincial immigration streams may be looking for you. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Hello people. Has anyone written IELTS in Ogudu recently. Please, how is their listening organised? Speaker or headset? (I need to know so I can simulate for either or both) Is the environment organised and calm? |

Debsify: Amen. It will change. You've waited it out. People should now consider dumping ICES for WES unless if the person graduated from a school like LAUTECH and the likes. 1 Like |

Or do Certificate level in CIMA. Just BA1 to BA4. With your accounting background, it will be an easier option than French. DexterousOne: |

Chicagomum: I think you should send them mail and express your dissatisfaction. I believe God will favour you. starting another process with WES might be an option if you can afford it. Also remember verification issue except you have someone standby to assist you. U can send me PM. 2 Likes |

Decision to migrate: November 2017: At this point, it dawned on me that my stay in the UK was coming to an end. I possibly couldn't believe my eyes until i got a mail from Home Office reminding me that i had some months left on my Visa. I was like na so this people wan thank me for spending millions running a Masters programme? At this point, i pinched myself and i was like..."oboy wetin u wan go do for naija"? To start from the scratch? Mbanu !!! I thought of applying for scholarships in the UK and US but for the UK, i was like never!!!.. not after breaking my back all in d name of warehouse jobs...lolzz omor i huzzle shaaa oooo. Options like residency in Australia and Canada became my best bets but I rather chose the Canada route and came across this thread..the rest is history. IELTS: My first IELTS test was in the UK, and i prepared for two weeks. First IELTS was LRWS: 7.5, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5...I was so excited thinking that was gonna fetch me a good CRS not knowing i needed atleast an 8.0 in the listening band. I really appreciate the great guys here who encouraged me to retake the test. Got back to Nigeria in January 2018 and decided to retake IELTS, this time around in March. Had ample time to prepare and was very much relaxed in the hall. My second IELTS test was LRWS: 8.0, 7.0, 7.5, 7.5 which was enough for me. As for the materials i used, i basically used online platforms like ieltliz, ieltsbuddy.com and ielts-up.com. ECA This was straightforward as i evaluated just my Masters degree. WES was at my service and did the needful. Being a foreign degree, it was a smooth process for me, and i had my evaluation done within a month or thereabout. MEDICALS This was quite straightforward. Had mine at Prime Medicals in Port Harcourt. Unfortunately, they are no longer part of the process. PROOF OF FUNDS(POF) Used 100% gift deed from my dad. This was transferred to my savings account and transfer document for that was secured. Many have been of the opinion that notarizing the gift deed isn't necessary. Personally i notarized mine. For the gift deed, i simply followed the format put up by wakanowdotcom. His post was really helpful. Other documents i submitted are: >6-month bank statement showing inflow of cash and transfer of POF. >Also got a printout of currency converter (oanda and xe.com) as at day of submission, >LOE explaining source of funds and bulk sum and, > bank reference letter. NO PAYSLIPS WAS INCLUDED. I contemplated including one, but when i got necessary advice from the likes of Tojued and Newmum0615, i had to submit my application without including payslips. Happytbaby, glitteringstar, ugoiyke79e, thanks for all your mails. I so disturbed these guys and trust me, they were of great help. EMPLOYMENT: This was the point i needed my God to step into the matter...lolzzzz.. I actually worked in a firm where i was paid in cash, and all i did was to get a reference letter from my boss in CIC format. I also included an LOE stating the reason i was paid in cash. It was indicated on the letter that i was paid in cash. As for online presence, the firm had no online presence like a website, and i had to including a screenshot of the firm's registration page on the CAC's website. Lastly, i included my boss's complimentary card just incase they decide to reach him directly. In all, i committed everything to God. One prayer i kept praying was, God please blind them from all my inadequacies and trust me this prayer worked like magic..hahahahha. PCC: I applied for Nigeria and UK PCC. Mr Moshood was of great help when i applied for the Nigeria PCC. Though he made some errors on my PCC, but Lucia was very helpful as she helped me apply for another and scanned it to me. ADRs: I recieved my first ADR on Sept 20th and it was to fill Schedule A form, of which i did immediately and submitted. Second ADR came in October, which was to make payment for RPRF. Made this payment immediately. Third ADR came in and lo and behold, i thought it was PPR not knowing i had another form to fill up. This time around, it had to do with filling the IMM5406 form (additional family information). As usual, i responded swiftly. GCMS NOTES: Ordered first set of gcms notes on the 24th of November, 2018, and for over 60days it wasn't delivered. Mailed them severally and kept getting all sort of excuses. Atlast, had to re-order and it arrived on the 9th of Feb, 2019. Everything look cool. The wait continued In all these, it's been a long wait...some will say long overdue but i must say it is worth the wait. At some point i almost lost it 'cos i was beginning to get fed up with responses from CIC agents. Disturbing CIC agents became a hobby to me, as i kept calling and calling...dats how i spoke to one agent thrice on different occassions..lolz...but shun, this lady's voice is something else...often felt at home each time i got connected to her. Will miss her though...hope we get to meet in Cannyland. Psychologically, this process drained me..imagine friends always wanting to know wats going on in this life of dis dude who just got back from UK...enemies at the gate i must say...but God pass them. I no wan mention all dos "cats" (babes) wey don chop my UK money run....lolzzz.. dey go soon come back to chop Canny money...Chop keee una there...hahahahaha... Emotionally, it was hard for me...thinking about the whole process and thinking about a sick dad who keeps asking..."my son, when are they gonna send the mail?...are you sure this thing will work out?...it became a regular thing that each time i watched his face and have the thoughts of FSW Express Entry, i simply got weak. One thing is for sure, he gave me a big smile early this morning when i got the golden mail..been a while i saw him smile though. One thing is for sure, i am happy he is strong to see this become a reality....no worry, na canny doctors go treat u las las. Maybe all those great doctors on this thread. I must say a huge thank you to everyone who chipped in one info or the other, you guys were of great help. Smslive, indeed you are a great oracle. Fresty, we global now !!!! Cheee !!! thanks for being a buddy indeed...God bless you real good. To my family...u know yourselves, AOR August Whatsapp group and August ITA whatsapp group, you guys rock.. Love y'all.. Mo, u aiit? init? To the newbies or those in the process, stay strong, stay focused, asked questions, i repeat ask questions.. read...read...read too...this journey is one that requires even the smallest person beside u.. Throw away pride and ego, and be humble enough to seek information. It is key. ABOVE ALL, BE CLOSE TO YOUR GOD...IT MIGHT SOUND FUNNY, BUT TRUST ME NOT EVERYONE WHO SEES YOU GOING TRU DIS PROCESS WISH U WELL...HENCE, BE CLOSE TO YOUR GOD. TIMELINE: One funny thing that happened prior to when i got the ghost update yesterday morning was that, i ordered for second GCMS notes in the morning, and after some minutes i got the ghost update, trust igbo guy like me naa.. i hurriedly mailed gcmsbuddy to cancel my order and initiate a refund. Indeed God was ahead of me. ITA: June 11, 2018 AOR: August 28, 2018. 1st ADR: September 20, 2018 MED passed/ BIL: September 24, 2018.

As far as am concerned, there is no issue with WES, it all depends on individual uni, UI gave me zero wahala, ECA was done in 6weeks (plus transcript sending to WES), that of my spouse was just 4weeks (private school). aside the expense of sending O'level to WES, for me they are fast, Naija Universities are just the problem people face when it comes to verification.

Chicagomum: Madame, if you have money, apply to WES for evaluation too ASAP. WES won't take more than 6weeks if there's no delay from your school. Better to part with some extra cash than wait till you drop points. 3 Likes |
