DboyizGood: My Timeline Pardon my long gist and ignore all errors- I don pass my IELTS ![]() ![]() 1st ielts- Feb 20, 2018....LRWS- 6.5,8.5,7,7 2nd ielts- Mar 3, 2018 !st Eca report: June 2018 2nd ECA report: Aug 2018 3rd ECA report: March 2019 1st ITA: October 2019 (declined bcs of fear of denial from using one-semester evaluation)-wrong move 1st Medical: Nov 2, 2018 2nd ITA: April 3 AOR: April 10 NOC: 1111 MEP/BIL: May 18 Biometrics completed: May 23 Ordered GCMS: Not at all 1st ghost: Oct. 21 (re-med request) 2nd Medical: Oct. 31 2nd MEP: Oct 8 PPR: Nov 13 VO: Ottawa No calls to CIC, No GCMS notes ordered(babu kudi) ![]() ![]() Single Applicant MY STORY DECISION TO MIGRATE Growing up and coming from my kind of humble background, I have always wished to go abroad but how was that going to happen (local man had no clue). During my NYSC days back in 2014 in IB, I remember how myself and my guy Chris would talk about saving money and running to Dubai just in a bid to japa any which way. After NYSC, got a job that paid local man 25k in IB (the joy in my heart that i got a job ehn...chai..I even forgot about travel plans, may be bcs money was too small). Left the job and moved to Lagos 5months later (in my mind I don blow until our naira got devalued again) Fast forward to sept 2017 was preparing for my final ICAN exam when a friend hinted and briefed me on this canny waka and how his brother was leaving in 2months and that he was already in the race to japa...Local man was in shock (but pushed it aside to prepare for my exams I had in November 2017 but there and then I knew this was my way out). In the course of my research I stumbled on this thread in part3 when the likes of @Newmum (NOC matching specialist who was expecting PPR at the time) and @McStan visibly active. The information here is “nmua”. Even my friend was shocked at how much I came to know in such a short while. Got my passport in Jan 2018 and also registered for my first IELTS for Feb 20, 2018 IELTS Booked my ielts with MOD and preparation began. Used ielts Liz, ielts studybuddy basically to see sample essays, watched youtube videos for speaking to get an idea of what to expect, used cambridge materials for listening and also practiced lots of Maps and Diagram questions on youtube. After my exam, I booked another one with BC for March 3, 2018 because I knew my listening didn’t go so well because I never expected a loud speaker would be used for the test. LRWS-6.5,8.5,7,7 Second test was in Abeokuta. LRWS-8.5,9,7,7. CRS was in the 440’s at this time and because I was still expecting ECA report, I applied for remark hoping for a 0.5 increase in Writing and Speaking (waste of 15k after waiting over 3months and nothing happened. I doubt if a remark was even done on my exam sef...I felt these guys just repacked my TRF for me after plenty calls from me). I remember I had to sit for like 20mins to catch my breath and regain strength to go home because even my legs immediately grew weak immediately I opened my report and saw nothing changed. Local man wanted to cry...Chai ECA I started working on this in December 2017 but because of NASU strike, not much could be done. Fast forward to June 2018, ECA report was ready and I dived into the pool at 435 (scores refused to crash and the hustle for a second certificate began) I remember back then in 2018, the constant questions about “if ICAN positively evaluated” and deliberation about “the evaluation outcome of F1-F3 with WES”. I was able to contact someone from my findings who had evaluated the same, even claimed exemption for one paper and got a 1year canadian equivalent. I was so excited and I shared that info here but it didn't take long before WES craze started and evaluating same certificate as one-semester (Chai see panic everywhere). I was particularly devastated by the development but local man cannot can what he can’t make to can. At this point, a whatsapp group had to be created for those who needed a second certificate. THE STRUGGLE FOR ADDITIONAL CERTIFICATE A group-(ACCA/CIMA/UNILAG HRDC) was created by our boss lady HALBOND(dont know her moniker here) and my pakistan friend @AYUB I met here who can panic for the whole of his continent added me to the group and everyone started to brainstorm on possible options we had. It dint take long and group was full to capacity. Along the line just like the plantashun boyz crew, another group (PR Dream) was birthed and some go solo and others too follow (long story) ![]() ![]() ![]() We all wanted to go the open university route, unilag hrdc came up at some point, we deliberated about CIMA and how it might fly but we dint have success stories to back this up, ACCA FIA to the rescue for @smslive2 (very resourceful sombori), we all dived in (but this dint go well for all of us who did. some were flashed with one-semester others got 3yrs evaluation outcome), BTEC & QUALIFI came up too, a lot of others opted for this, BCS too...and finally CIMA seemed to be the easiest route to go as of now. I wrote four ACCA foundation papers in about 3weeks in July 2018 but the outcome was one-semester in sept 2018. There was a lot of controversy around using it but I made up my mind to use it in Oct 2018. I had all doc's and ready for submission in Nov. 2018 but chickened out last minute and decided to go the extra mile to get an ACCA advanced diploma certificate by writing more papers in the Nov 2018 diet exam (those I did not write, I claimed exemption for using my ICAN certificate). NB- using the one-semester would have still worked. I know over 6 success stories of comrades on this trip. If you have it and with no other option in sight, please use it. 3rd ECA report came out in March 2019 and I got ITA April 3. PCC First was done in Oct 2018 I called inspector moshood but on getting to Alagbon, a junior inspector (cant remember his name) hijacked me and offered to help. He works with the legal office that is just by the entrance on the left. Paid 3.5k Second was done March 2019 and used the same guy but paid like 2k this time since it was just renewal. Dude wished me well and prayed I get what I was looking for. Nice guy MEDICAL IOM to the rescue in November 2018, even though i didn’t go ahead to submit my application, it was the same medical I used in April 2019 for my application. Got re-medical request in Oct 2019 and decided to go with Q-Life this time. I had a better experience with Q-Life (spent less time at the clinic) POF Used investment certificate with FBN quest, 6months bank statement and 25% of pension (shikini money) Family and friends (I least expected came through for me here too and I am most grateful). Make I no talk put plenty for here, it was a struggle meeting up with expected funds but am glad it ended well PROOF OF WORK EXPERIENCE Ended up using one employer because as at April 2019, I had 3yrs+1month with my employer (but was also able to get reference letter from my IB employer but I moved this experience to personal history). I don't like to complicate things. Got it in required format without stress, there was already a max exodus of staff at the time and HR already knew what they needed to do. DOCUMENT COLLATION FOR SUBMISSION I used camscanner to scan all my docs, named them properly as appropriate. Took photograph with my phone used for submission (learnt that here). Everything was in place, did my reviews and pushed everything over to CIC April 10, 2019. I was 95% certain I filled a good error free application. THE LONG WAIT POST AOR I was going to bet my POF that PPR will come in 4months max ![]() ![]() After submission of my application, 6days later, I resigned and moved somewhere else (I was vexing for them because for 3yrs, no growth and no pay raise...nothing. I also did not get a promotion I earned even after like a yr of waiting and hoping) At my new employment, for the first 3months I was overwhelmed with work but somehow I loved the challenge (I dint also join a post AOR group until after my biometrics because worked somehow made me forget that) Finally got to join one (April/May AOR) and that was where my panic attack started o (I wanted to leave at some point but the group turned out to be a great and resourceful one at the end) Analysis here and there from members, how to know when you get to the fake/real ip1 and ip2, sticker fights here and there (thanks to our legendary sticker king @seye...dont know his moniker here), you will wake up and see like 1000 messages and after going through it, you find out say na jokes and sticker fights full am (wetin concern me, I was enjoying the journey, the fun and sarcasm). I raised a couple of CSE’s (to update CIC that i was a member of ICAN- this was when a story came up about someone who was denied because he did not declare that he was a BOD with a company, raised CSE to know my VO, to persuade them not to forget my file o, told them how excited I was about my plans to move to canny, raised CSE for updated POF when the story of denial because of mutual fund was flying upandan, raised CSE to remind them my medical was going to expire and that I have booked an appointment for a new one. All to blow dust on my application. Did this all work? I don’t know o) When people started in PPR once they see a GU, It didn't take long and I got an update for re-med and I knew my too was around the corner. Re-med was done and it didn't take long before an email with the subject “Ready for Visa / Prêt pour Visa” was sitting in my inbox (In-fact I had woken up at 3am to check for it. I did see it and that was the end of my sleep for the night) SPECIAL SHOUT-OUT To my friend and colleague who first hinted me about this waka (I dobale for you), to everyone on this thread (active contributors and silent readers), to the members of all my canny waka groups, to my family and friends that did one or two (much love). To Baba God, Oluwa o, Olisa bi n’igwe ogodo ya na akpu n’ala, chukwu abiama, chukwu nmuo nso (that have made a local man like me to can on this journey) -I thank you. To encourage everyone here who is still pushing for what they want. If a direct iTA does not happen, PNP could save the day. It will all make sense in its time and season. Stumbled on this thread in Part 3 early 2018 and now its Part 9. I just got PPR, close to 2yrs hustle o. Everybody go chop breakfast, but na time fit no be the same (if you get the gist) ![]() This is my story (I hustled to make sure I could tell this story- like my life depended on it, I wrote exams like no man's business) and it has been told the best way I could think of, be encouraged guys cos It will end in praise. Thank you for reading (if you actually read o) ![]() ![]() 127 Likes 10 Shares |

And I like the way you organized your script, you must know a thing or two about editing on NL. For that, you score 10/10. Congratulations on your success!

@iaatmguy! See what I said about ACCA evaluation. The thing is that for someone who just wants to attempt any of the exams now, it's best to go with CIMA. But if a person already has ACCA, it's best to go-ahead with it. DboyizGood: 1 Like |
