For those in ABUJA who already got PR visa and COPR and wish to buy some winter coats/jacket/gloves/beanie /thermal wears and or sweater before leaving, you can get from Onyema in Wuse Market 0803 450 1632.

He has extremely neat things.

Madam continue with the process, while doing it keep praying earnestly to God to touch his heart (after all the hearts of kings are in His hands). Write IELTS, evaluate your degree and his, keep being proactive and have absolute faith in God to bring the desires of your heart to reality. Your husband won't be the first or the last husband who started off kicking against the idea and later catches the Canny bug. Good luck to you and may God's perfect will be done.

My fellow nairalanders. I appreciate your help so far despite the fact that I haven't really gone too far. I am just at the ECA stage and registered for ielts next month. It's with a very great sadness that I might have to pull out of this canny dream. Really sad for me.���� hubby has seriously been reluctant. Says he loves his Naija and God has not instructed him to leave Nigeria and until he receives his heavenly dream from God, he is not going anywhere. He actually said if I want to go badly, I should. But here's the problem, with 3 kids ages 5 3, and 1.5 years old. How do I cope with daycare, job search, mobility, picking up from schools, groceries, and upkeep alone in Canada. To worsen it, he isn't supporting financially. I even offered and begged to have him sit for ielts and his eca with my monthly pay he reluctantly said yes but I thought, one can only force a horse to the river but not to drink. Without his help how will I survive with 3 beautiful kids alone in Canada. He is not even batting an eye concerning the benefits. He's a speedy driver, says cars are meant for speed how will such a person cope with Canadian traffic rules. These and some little others have just weakened me especially my children and the highest I can even leave them is a week. We are that close that they have never gone to bed without my hug and kisses. I dont have any family over there to help with. Good night.

Be also there to advise her when her marriage ends in divorce o. Let’s call a spade a spade. Abeg, forget that, ‘you can survive in Canada as a single mother’. She may go ahead with the Express Entry process for now, but finally, going to Canada without her husband’s approval and company is simply asking for a divorce. Who in Canada will want to marry a single mother with 3 kids when their father is still alive? Loneliness is real o! There is a kind of loneliness that your kids cannot solve, and that only a partner can quench. So it is a simple but difficult choice — Canada/divorce or continued marriage/love. You must point this to her when you advice: ‘so when your PR comes, will you want to risk your marriage because of Canada if your husband still refuses to agree to only you going?’

Even though I am also in the race to land in Canada, I will always reiterate that Canada is not everything; everything in this life is vanity. In some situations, one needs to weigh their options properly before they decide any action, and they need to be prepared to face the consequences.

Guess you missed the part where I said ‘carry your husband along every step of the way. Let him know you can’t do anything without his permission’

My suggestion is based on the assumption that when Oga sees ITA/BIL/PPR, he will have a change of mind.

It’s better to have ur PPR and say you are not going than to wonder ‘what if’. From most experiences shared, na fear of the unknown abeg.

Please, I am currently rounding up with my diploma in education which is entirely different from my job as a Document Controller in oil & gas, just that is a family thing to get Edu background.

My question now is can I also evaluate the diploma in education together with my BSC in Business Admin (Accounting and Finance option) considering the fact that is entirely different from my job experience.

yes you can use it

Ologunsunny:

My school recently replied to Wes through email and my profile changed from verification required to we are reviewing your documents, please it takes like how many days before they send me estimated completion date email?

35 days

WES is gradually becoming slow.
You need to call them if not they will forget you.
They have received my wife's credentials since 3 weeks now. I have been begging them to send verification to her school all to no avail.

So if you can call to ascertain how long you should wait, please do. Oge adiro. (Time no dey)

ladymarshall:
@Abti Much has been said about structure by our able guru @johnnybravo1990 and others, now let's focus on grammar. I hope you are not heartbroken by your many mistakes. Pardon me if my corrections were harsh, but I'd rather be harsh with you here than the examiner on your exam scripts. 75k must not waste. To make you feel better, I have put the niceties about your essay in bold in my comments The bolded in your essay are your errors.

PARAGRAPH 1 (Introduction)
"These days", not "this days" (subject+verb agreement rule). But "These days" is an informal adverb, you are writing a formal essay, "Currently", "At present" are good formal substitutes.

"are of little use to us", is too wordy, "irrelevant" is a more concise substitute.

I am not sure if "continuously" is appropriate here, I would have used "continually". But you decide. Read more about the difference here https://www.dailywritingtips.com/continuous-or-continual/

"that" (not "and" ) are constantly flooding... "

"which" or "that" not "who" ("who" always refer to person or humans, never use it for non-humans, things or objects)

"of benefit to us" is too wordy. "beneficial" is a better substitute. Be careful of being too wordy or verbose, else you lose points for cohesion. Your introduction is nice in terms of vocabulary but too wordy, make it more concise.

A little note on structure: Make your introduction stronger by signposting. End the introduction with "In this essay, I will examine why production of waste is on the rise and effective solution by the government to curb this menance" (or "The following paragraphs in this essay will explain..." ). This helps you flow smoothly into your next paragraph and scores you points for coherence. Also the examiner knows what to expect in the coming paragraphs.

PARAGRAPH 2
Sentence 1 is an epic no no!!! First, you repeat the exact first sentence you wrote in the introduction, which gives the examiner the impression that you are seriously struggling for words and you would lose points for vocabulary range. Second, that sentence also repeats the question and is an absolute waste of space. The body paragraph is the substance of your essay, just like the carbohydrate of a meal. This is where you prove to the examiner you know what you are saying. You have only 250 words at least, every sentence must add value to your essay.

Sentence 2: what is the role of the word "civilized" in the context of the sentence, paragraph, essay and ielts question? What exactly do you mean? Avoid ambiguous words, words that have relative meaning. When you use contexual words (although I would strongly advise you avoid them to avoid wordiness), ensure you explain them, rather than assuming the examiner would automatically understand.

Still on sentence 2: The question did not ask you about the consequences of production of waste, which would then makes sense that waste damages our health and well-being. The question asked you about the reasons for the increased production of waste e.g consumerism, ignorance, lack of effective environmental laws, lack of disposal systems in society, greed of manufacturing businesses etc. Thus, you lose points for task achievement. At this point, your examiner is unimpressed and expects less from you in the subsequent paragraphs. The marking of writing is subjective. Your examiner is human and has feelings. Your goal should be to make your examiner happy from the first word of your essay to the last. One of the best ways to do this is to stick to the question. Do not derail.

Sentence 3 would have been a perfect first sentence for that paragraph because it answers the question of why. Packaging of food and drinks in plastic and its subsequent dumping is a reason for increased waste production, very good. Unfortunately, you used it as an example. At this point the examiner is sure that you do not understand English language or you are confused by the question, because you just used a "causal" sentence to exemplify your prior sentence "effect". So you would lose more points for task achievement and coherence. Ensure your examples are appropriate.

PARAGRAPH 3
Use "Furthermore" You have used "firstly" in your first paragraph, using "secondly" would appear as if you are bulleting your points, which is not really sophisticated for an essay (this is my subjective opinion, you can decide otherwise)

Again you repeated "there has been an increase" for the third time. The examiner at this point would assume you have crammed this phrase for your essay and is already preparing his/her mind on your beautiful score

I also can't believe you created a paragraph of just two sentences! What? The examiner would assume you are stuck and didn't know what else to write. Don't do this in exams. A paragraph should comprise at least 3 to 5 sentences.

In terms of content, you did a good job. That paragraph answered the question. Wasteful habits of purchasing more than what we need is a good reason for the increased production of waste. But you need to flesh up that paragraph. The question allows you to add your experience. Was there a time you or your children bought too many canned or plastic things from Ikeja City Mall or The Palms (assuming you live in Lagos) and had to throw them away? You can add that. Experiences and examples are great ways of fleshing up your paragraph if you ever get stuck while writing.


PARAGRAPH 4
This is the best paragraph of your essay. Sentence 1 especially answers the second part of the question and has great vocabulary. Sentence 2 is a good example but has a very weak connection to your point in Sentence 1. Note that the example should buttress the laws and policies, not just production. You can make it better by rewriting it this way: "An example is the 2017 directive by the Manufacturing Association of Association (MAN) that orders the side production of paper bags and paper cups for the packaging of food and drinks by companies." (that MAN directive does not exist, but the examiner does not care, it is an appropriate example that suits your point and that is all that matters, I'm not sure if MAN is a government agency, but even your examiner might be as ignorant in that aspect as me and does not care, your essay is not judged for factual or statistical accuracy).

add an 's' to government. Note that the question says "governments". As you write your essay, always refer back to the question from time to time to ensure you are on the right track.

How "clear" can an example be? Can examples be unclear, yes. But have you ever seen any essay that writes "an 'unclear' example is...", no. Because it is assumed that all examples in formal essays should be clear. So delete. Avoid redundant words, you need all the points you can get for cohesion.

PARAGRAPH 5 (Conclusion)
Sentence 1 should be added to paragraph 4 as it is part of the solutions.

Sentence 2 is good as a wrap up.

Your conclusion is a summary and should perform that function. Rewrite the conclusion as "In conclusion, this essay has examined the reasons why there is an incremental production of waste and the measures that can be taken by governments to reduce it. Indeed, the practice of waste reduction should be a joint effort by both governments, manufacturers and the consumers alike, in order to successfully create a healthy environment for all."

Overall, I like your use of transitional words, although it can be improved. Your structure is ok in terms of content. With the exception of paragraph 2, each paragraph contains the right content as demanded by the question, but you need to strengthen them by beefing them up (don't write "beef up" in your essay o, too informal ). But your mistakes overall are too many and would have a damaging effect on your score. By the time the examiner is done with your script, you might be lucky to get a 5. But thank God, this is just practice and you can perfect your skills. When you write and edit during your practice, always imagine the examiner is reading your scripts. After every sentence and paragraph, ask yourself, "is this grammatically accurate, logical and coherent"? "Does it answer the question?" etc

In addition to watching Jay's videos as have been recommended by previous responses, spend some time understanding the IELTS writing marking scheme https://www.examenglish.com/IELTS/IELTS_Writing_MarkSchemes.html

This detailed edit took me a little bit over an hour. For each IELTS draft I edit, I lose $35 per hour away from work. While I try to be 'selfless', I need to make the money I will spend in my new country So this is why I have turned down (and still turning down) editing many scripts via pm as I work overtime these days. In other words, don't ask me to edit more via pm My conscience just didn't allow me to overlook your essay as I am duty bound (by choice) to respond to help publicly here.

Luckily, @johnnybravo1990 is available for one-on-one coaching and @RHEMA offered to help (I hope I got her monika right). @jjohndoe83 is on honeymoon, I guess but he will provide his service very soon

All the best in your practice and exams.

Ladymarshall reviewed my essay?... yaay! . Thank you so much for the detailed feedback. Thanks to everyone for their input ,you guys have been awesome. I will work on the corrected areas. Meanwhile, I need a coach on this matter @RHEMA, @johnnybravo1990, @ topsmamen, and everyother coach in the house. Please I humbly ask . Thank you.

All you need to do is pay for verification 5k through remitta. Change it to receipt at cash office and attach with the mail you were sent from Wes. Go to transcript office for submission, it will be verified

Thank you!
Do they check their mails frequently? Because my certifying body (MCC) will send a copy of my certificate by mail through ECFMG and they’re expected to reply within a specific period.

thanks for response, will they evaluate highest qualification only , i want to evaluate my HND

I really do not know much about them, except that their processing time is really long. After the delay, I lost interest so I do not have much information

Good day, please how can an error in attestation of birth be corrected? As an example, Mr A hopes to claim sibling points from Mrs B but while Mrs B was filling her application for attestation of birth she stated she was from Lekki Phase 1 and stated her LGA as Epe (which is clearly incorrect) ,Mr A is about to do his attestation of birth and is going to state he is from Lekki Phase 1 and the LGA is Eti-Osa (the correct info). Will this complicate the PR application? Can the initial error be corrected? What steps can be taken to correct it? Thanks.

Congrats. May you be fruitful in your new home.

It has ended in praise.

Will this complicate the PR application? I'm not sure. It seems a minor thing.
Can the initial error be corrected? You might need to go to a NPC office.
What steps can be taken to correct it? Refer to above.

Hello House


Is it possible for WES to send verification mail before one sends all the required documents. We are still awaiting Unilag's Statememnt of Result, every other document? (Transcript & WAEC )has been sent since 16th of April.

Topsmamen:


Don't be worried. It's normal that adding spouse after PPR would require extra checks. Your application will eventually be approved. Read the post here.

Thanks alot. From her timeline she has her ppr now. And she added her husband in November. I added my husband around the same time too. Please how do i reach Ralph?

@Topsmamen

Congratulations...please when did you submit the Eor? And what date did you get the confirmation email that your request had been sent to BC?

THE STORY SO FAR

Hey guys!

It has been a long while since I visited this thread (or is it called trend?), and today, I felt I should share en opped one tip or the other when I needed it most.

I wish you all the best.

I doubt the statement alone with suffice. You will need to include a LOE explaining that you have access to the 25% and include a link to the law on the web.

Something like this:
"The balance in my Pension account as at 23rd May, 2019 is N4,000,000. 25% of this amount which is N1,000,000 will be accessible to me within 4 months of resignation.

I will have to resign my employment for the purpose of relocating to Canada to take up my Permanent Residency.

Part III, Section 7 – (2) of the Nigerian Pension Reform Act 2014 authorizes this:
' Where an employee voluntarily retires, disengages or is disengaged from employment as provided for under section 16·(2) and (5) of this Act, the employee may with the approval of the Commission, withdraw an amount of money not exceeding 25 per cent of the total amount credited to his retirement savings account, provided that such withdrawals shall only be made after four months of such retirement or cessation of employment and the employee does not secure another employment.'

Please refer to the link below to access the Pension Reform Act 2014 (http://lawnigeria.com/LawsoftheFederation/Pension-Reform-Act,-2011-%28Repeal-and-Re-enactment%29-Act,-2014.html)."

You can use any other web link in place of this one if you choose.

onyexx:
Hello everyone,

Please has anyone here used a statement of account from premium pensions? The customer service lady I spoke to just said they cannot include any letter explaining that I have access to 25% of the funds 6 months after retirement. Will the statement alone suffice?

[quote author=ceyrahtlk post=78615081]THE STORY SO FAR

Hey guys!

It has been a long while since I visited this thread (or is it called trend?), and today, I felt I should share what has been going on at my end with the hope of encouraging someone.

So, when I started this journey November, I was so excited, and I felt passing IELTS and getting ITA was going to be a breeze until IELTS 'jammed me'.

My first attempt was January 19, and I was so sure of getting nothing less than 8 in writing, but, alas, I had L-9, R-8.5, W-6.5, S-7, and I didn't even stop there because I asked for EOR, but it came back unchanged.

However, I didn't give up, and I booked the next available date, April 9th, and the test was computer delivered, and yay! I passed!
L-9, R-9, W-7, S-7, but it did not end there, and in fact, that is where my story begins because I asked for EOR again. Actually, at this point, my score was 444, and I had been hoping to at least get 450.

You see, after my first attempt, I came to this forum for assistance, and I joined Wasseynewest's writing group to familiarise myself with the essay structures, @bunmioluwa also introduced me to writeandimprove.com, a wonderful site for IELTS. Furthermore, I downloaded Grammarly app on my laptop, from the Microsoft store, and that made me realise some of my writing mistakes, and I worked on these by watching some youtube videos.

When I started practising with writeandimprove.com, my score was 6.5, but, before the test, I was consistently getting 8, sometimes 8.5, under examination conditions. So, that prompted me to ask for a remark when my results came out because I badly needed 3 extra points at least.

Fortunately, as God would have it, I got 6 points extra because I received my EOR report today.

L-9, R-9, W-7.5, S-8. Halleluyah somebody!

I guess what I am trying to say is that you should seek assistance when you need it because in this journey, being full of yourself isn't going to help you one bit, and secondly, even if you 'pass' the test, and you need extra points, consider asking for a remark first before rewriting the test. You might be surprised!

Thank you @wasseynewest @bunmioluwa and every other person that dropped one tip or the other when I needed it most.

I wish you all the best.

I tap into this testimony o. I got 9, 8.5, 7, 7.5. I requested EOR just yesterday for writing and speaking. A 7.5 in writing will land me a 450. Congrats and The Lord who did yours will perfect mine.

Congrats. May you excel in your new land.
