Awsssh.... my 7k is about to go down the drain

Tosaned:
Gather around my people.... It's COPR!!!!!!!

I have to mention @newmum0615, she is the real MVP. God bless you immensely. She helped with NOC because I picked the wrong one, tweaked every and without knowing me from Adam. I don't know how she does it but May Grace and Favor speak for you and yours. May your seeds be great and might forever... You are one in a billion.


The wait was horrible, I would like to say I waited with Grace but that would be a lie. There was a lot of tantrums and God whys! I didn't experience any delay during the verification/IELTS process but I learnt patience after AOR. My profile didn't change till the 18th of March when I woke up to the PPR Mail. then I logged into my account and saw: We are processing your background.. I looked at my phone, called hubby and went back to bed. I woke up and saw that some other people got PPR mail that same day but the worry and anxiety have robbed me of excitement. But now, ayam excited!

For two major life projects that I have done in my life, Nairaland has helped immensely, I hope Seun Osewa is immensely proud of what he has achieved and the fact that this forum hasn't been sold yet is a testimony to the fact that the guy is a real MVP, God bless you lots..

To anyone and everyone on this journey, I wish you God's speed, Favor, Grace and Patience...

@ifeoma, @wassey @joo2018 all you guys making greatness common on this thread, I appreciate you all, God bless you loads

Topsmamen:


Yes boss. Sure, you have sent your certificate to WES, your school will send your transcripts to WES. WES will communicate to you through your email and/or WES account.

kingspaco:

WES will update your account when they receive your documents. All you need to do is to be checking your WES account to see if there is any update.

Remember to make use of your WES Reference number when you contact your school for your transcript.

Topsmamen:


Your NYSC JD best fits with NOC 4214 (Early childhood educators and assistants). This is skill level B, so you're fine with this.

Topsmamen:


Hmm. Unfortunately, both NOCs 6521 and 6523 are in the NOC C skill type. To be eligible for the Federal Skilled Workers stream, your work experience must be in skill type 0, A or B.

Topsmamen:


Birthday gift indeed. Plenty congrats Tosaned.

DrMrsCK:


How does abandoning medicine or not concern CIC?

Tosaned:
Gather around my people.... It's COPR!!!!!!!

I know, I know, I should have announced PPR but when I got the golden mail, I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be because of the 'long wait'. But I am thankful and grateful that it is ending in praise!!!

Novel alert, please skip and then skip some more to the timeline:

My Canadian journey started way back in 2011 when Canada application was still via the paper route. I wanted to relocate but my then fiancée wasn't interested and my father wasn't going to finance my Canadian dream if my fiancée wasn't on board with the relocation plan. I was heartbroken but I guess my dad wanted me to get married less I become an old maid **insert eye roll here** So while Canadian dream kaput, The then fiancee wanted us to both register for a Masters degree. We both did, wrote the exams, I passed, he failed. I started the Masters programme, started planning the wedding and I opted out of the whole thing two months before the wedding.... This will be a sequel.. Moving on...

While running the Masters, I got married, loving my career, got pregnant and I saw the inadequacy of the Nigerian health care system. My 7 weeks old baby was almost aborted at L****n hospital because I was spotting and the doctor concluded it was a miscarriage without a scan. Using Just a speculum, he said he saw the baby hence evacuation straight! We had paid for the evacuation, waiting for an available operating room when my husband randomly asked if they did a scan. I said No, he asked why, we were told the hospital doesn't do scans on that particular day, my husband was livid. He insisted we had to do a scan before the surgery and the hospital gave us a scan centre like 35 minutes drive away. Hubby didn't mind, I was bundled into the car with drips and all to go do a scan and lo and behold, It was the baby's heart beat.. It was just a threatened abortion.. We went back to the hospital and give them the results and strangely enough none of the doctors were available, even the medical director that told me to accept God's plan that my baby was dead! So give us our money back, na lie o, we had to wait for weeks to get a refund! My people shine your eyes o!

So I though L*****n was rubbish, moved to R********n, I loved the service until delivery when everything started turningoninown and it led to emergency CS. I had to wait for like an hour to get epidural while they look for a particular size of needle to give me epidural meanwhile after 24 hours of Labor, baby's heart beat was already failing.. My people, my eyes have seen!!!! Lol!

After all these, I told hubby we needed to leave, that was 2012 but he believed in the dream that was Nigeria. Our friends, colleagues and neighbors were leaving but still, he believed. 4 years later to second baby, I told him I am not going through all the Nigerian hospital drama again, he agreed and we decided to go have the baby in the US. I started my research and stumbled on Nairaland. The givingbirthintheusa thread. By the way, I was TLKMama on that thread. Before then US wasn't even a country I was interested in as I was a 'UK Person'. US was too far and I hate flying. Siblings and friends were all in the UK but I wanted citizenship if we were going to spend all that money, Nairaland came through... I got back and decided I have had it with Naija. But then promotions came for hubby and I, things got better and we fell for it so the idea to relocate was shelved again.

January 2018, I just got tired of Nigeria, everything was still going on well but I saw the handwriting on the wall. Before things would get better, it's likely to get much worse and I don't want to be around to witness that. I discussed with hubby and we decided the kids and I go while he will be visiting and maintain his PR.

WES
Hubby and I started in March. His UI, mine Unilag and God used people for us. Divine favor from transcript to verification. I used statement of result with Wes and by June we were done.

IELTS
Eh, yours truly was principal applicant. First result was village people things LRSW was 8,8,8,6 in May. EOR with BC, writing was upgraded to 7 after 2-3weeks. Registered for another IELTS before the result of the first EOR was due. Second IELTS was 9, 9, 8, 6.5. with BC in June. Another EOR upgraded my writing to 7. Hubby gave me max points for IELTS and degree. For speaking, I practiced questions from Liz ielts, writing was Jay the first time, LIZ paid classes the second time. Reading, didn't practice at all. Listening, IELTS page on YouTube and minieilts.com

I didn't wait for the 2nd EOR as I wanted to enter the pool before the 2nd July 2018 draw so used the first IELTS result. Entered the pool July 23rd and got ITA July 24th.

Proof of funds
Proof of funds was in my name and my account. Used naira and USD. Banks didn't give me the letters in teh CIC format so I attached 6 months statements

Reference letters
I used one reference letters for 2 job roles that have the same NOC from previous employment as I didn't want my current colleagues to know I am relocating. Thank you for this @newmum0615

OTHERS
Medicals was straightforward, we used Q-Life. Inspector Moshood for PC.

I have to mention @newmum0615, she is the real MVP. God bless you immensely. She helped with NOC because I picked the wrong one, tweaked every and without knowing me from Adam. I don't know how she does it but May Grace and Favor speak for you and yours. May your seeds be great and might forever... You are one in a billion.

Topsmamen:


Lmao! Worry no more my sister. I have confused them. Let them try again. They will meet Page 1 of this thread

Topsmamen:


Hmm. Unfortunately, both NOCs 6521 and 6523 are in the NOC C skill type. To be eligible for the Federal Skilled Workers stream, your work experience must be in skill type 0, A or B.

4214 Early childhood educators and assistants

http://noc.esdc.gc.ca/English/noc/Profile.aspx?val=4&val1=4214&ver=16


Je m'appelle NOC

sharon2015:


Or can I use the NOC 4214 as my primary Noc and then Noc 6521 or 6523 to make it 3years since I have up-to 2years experience in Noc 6521. Or I should use only my NYSC experience which is 1yr.

Please help me reason the above. Thank you

DrMrsCK:
Congratulations to all the PPR clinchers. We patiently await ours. E be like say CIC never remember Nigerian February AOR crew

Topsmamen:


No, 6521 is under skill type C so you cannot claim points with it. You are expected to have at least one-year of full-time work experience in skill type 0, A or B. This means you can only use your 1-year NYSC experience (with NOC 4214).

Boss Ifeoma, if you looking for your number one fan, it's xplorezee i tell youuuuuu!

Ok my people, this is the REMIX..........

Decision to travel has been since after my OND days. Actually delayed HND for few years as man had to hustle. This was born out of the advise from one of my lecturers back in 2005 at MAPOLY, that as a prospective Engineer, it's really important one go in search of core practical experience. And today, i thank God i followed the beautiful and life saving advise. More so, I have always learnt from my DAD that a man needs to be self sufficient.The support of the wifey should only be an added point .

Tosaned:


Thank you Topsmamen. How is Ifeoma?

Worldcitizen1:
Big congrats to the PPR clinchers. I am new here and I need some advice on the best ECA to use for my BSC. I had used WES, the ECA report recognized my degree but states that it is from an unrecognized institution. I obtained this degree from a university in Benin Republic. Anyone have any advice on which I should go with? Someone suggested ICES. Who has used ICES? Do anyone know if they rejects schools too? Also, I am worried about using IQAS, though they don't reject schools as WES, their processing time is long. My IELTS expires this August and I really hope i can sort this out soonest
