Topsmamen:


Hi. I see you posted the NOC 1223 duties. Please send your actual duties so we compare and advise. Thanks.

For me, I coach one-on-one. I have a soft spot for candidates who have attempted IELTS before, because I can imagine the pain they have experienced in not getting their desired scores. For first-timers, I may however find time to assist.

Topsmamen:


Send your JD.

Wow! Big congratulations, may you prosper in Canada!!

I am so gutted to read this.If you have money I think you can contact a reputable immigration firm/lawyer. The LP Group on
Youtube should suffice-they claim to help people with similar cases as yours.

P.S:Cases of rejection due to wrong choice of NOC is giving cause for concerns. I think we all owe it to our selves to help people review their NOC Code and ultimately confirm it where we possess such skill. One cannot afford to come this far and get a rejection letter, it's shattering to say the least.The mental, physical, emotional, financial burden is exhausting.

Newmum has done her 'bestest', we can't over burden her with every NOC requests as she graples with her new reality.(God bless her soul by the way).

As much as we have people who volunteer to help people with IELTS issues, we should also have for NOC.

I am volunteering to help people whose NOC falls under 1123/0124(Marketing,Advertising and Public Relations).

If you have special skills in deciphering NOC in your field I think you should reach out to these people when they post their NOC for review.

And to all newbie out there ensure you review your NOC before submitting your application.
@all :Please note this message is not borne out of compulsion but rather a passionate plea to help people achieve their dreams.

There is non. I am still trying to lay my hands on it. It happens to be this govt NAgro program.

Can I contact you directly if I get one.

ans123:
You fall under NOC 1123......note Senior account manager is not a managerial role, it' s a Senior Executive role. Account Manager here means you act as a liaison between your agency and the client and not in supervisory capacity. Usually the hierarchy in Agencies follows this order: assistant executive, Executive, senior executive, assistant manager, manager etc in that order.

1123 is majorly for people on the agency side of the marketing/communications industry while 0124 is a mix of both.

Under 1123 you will find your category(event marketing specialists) but this is not categorized under 0124..

Please post your JD here let us review.

Guys please I just realised that when filling in my application for evaluation for WES I filled in a wrong date for 'year degree was awarded '. I interchanged it with the year I finished my exams..Although it is still being processed and I don't know if this will be an issue as my school is yet to receive a verification mail from them.
Although the tracking number I got from the courier company says my document has been received by WES. Thanks

ITA

I was not comfortable with the way the job descriptions on my reference letter were listed in one of my roles that I claimed point for. So I consulted a few people on this platform (newmum and happytbaby, God will bless you both abundantly), and they agreed with me. I immediately declined the ITA and discounted that particular experience from my profile, this dropped my CRS to 439. I was initially hopeful that scores would drop to 439, but after about 2 or 3 draws, it dawned on me that scores might never drop below 440 so I reached out to newmum and happytbaby again and explained my intention to reclaim the point for that experience and support it with a detailed LOE and a lot of documentations since I actually performed the JD. They agreed with me and happytbaby volunteered to look at my LOE once drafted. After a few back and forth between happytbaby and I, we came up with a really detailed LOE which referenced a lot of additional documents. God bless you mama, I really appreciate it. I updated my profile and I was back to 464. A few days later, ITA 2 came.


POST-AOR

I submitted in June 2018 and like everyone else I prayed and was hopeful for a speedy processing. I remember the day I logged into my profile and saw that I had passed medicals, it was the best feeling in the world. Unfortunately, I was not prepared for what was coming. After, I passed medicals, I was pumped up and I immediately initiated the process of renewing my passport which was to expire in November 2018, I got the new passport about 2 days after and raised CSE to update accordingly. About two weeks later, I got a mail saying that my updated information has been passed on to the responsible office and that since my application is being processed at the Accra Visa Office, I should take note to contact them directly next time. I initially thought Accra shouldn’t be so bad as long as it’s not London. Oh was I wrong? I ordered GCMS note a few weeks after, everything appeared to be in order except of course for the fact that AVO had not touched it. By this time, I had already done a lot of research and knew what AVO was capable of. It was complete silence after this until February 2019 when the 4 famous ADR showed up (not 5 because I had submitted pay slip with my initial application). I submitted the ADR the following day and thought PPR would come shortly after. In their usual manner, AVO had other plans and PPR didn't come until almost 2 months after.

I honestly can’t thank everyone on the various AVO whatsapp groups enough. You guys are the real MVPs. All the support, encouragement and banters helped to keep me sane during the waiting period. I pray that everyone still waiting shall receive their good news soon.


SOME THINGS TO NOTE FOR FUTURE "AVORIANS"

1. AVO is not the VO for "crooked" applications like people think. so if you ever find yourself there, don't over-think it, they just like to work at
their own pace.
2. Support groups are great, try to join at least one of these groups. If it becomes too much (sometimes it can be), remove yourself from the
group(s) and go back after taking some fresh air.
3. A good idea is to do a certification while waiting (might not be that easy as the wait can be daunting, but just try).
4. Try not to put yourself under pressure by putting a timeline to the whole thing (PPR, departure). Trust me, AVO has a mind of their own.
5. Don't try to analyse "AVO trends" or what you think is trend, there's no one size fits all with AVO.
6. Finally, pray while waiting. This is the most important point.
