Please kindly reconsider and unban her. I'd think she would get a warning first before the ban, just like you did sometime ago for someone else on this platform.

You are from Delta State. You only provide letters for the points claimed. For example , if you are an engineer and that's your NOC. you provide the ref for that. Even though you worked in an engineering firm before and you are somewhere else now. It doesn't matter.

Another example, if you have been practicing the same NOC for say 6 years and you have worked in 2 places, you don't need your current employers reference if you can get the 3 yrs from somewhere else. Shalom.

Is it possible for one to prepare for ielts within two weeks
yes. I prepared for just 2weeks and maxed out. In fact, I paid just 3days before exam so I did LRW before speaking.

But one part leads to the other. Also, I didn't really pass summary in school so it will dilute the essence but I get your point.

Please can a BNSC holder evaluate public health transcript with WES to get 2 or more certificates for Canada's express entry?
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 9 by DeeCan: 9:49pm On Feb 29, 2020
[quote] It's PPR and COPR.
Before I proceed, please indulge me to plug in this powerful prayer from godG:

"Thank you, Jesus! This wouldn't have been possible without you. You keep bringing opportunities my way. This is beyond me. Heavenly Father, I really don’t know what Canada will bring because You have been teaching me not to be rigid with my plans. However, let this be the beginning of a fulfilling journey for me and mine. When the road gets rough, please straighten me, hold me, and abide with me. I put my trust in You. Plug me into Your purpose for my life there. In Canada, let only Your will for me be done. I'm going to Canada by the power of Your might. You are my hope. You are my all in all. No lack. No loss. No limitation."

God has really come through for me in so many ways that I have lost count. I wouldn't even be able to write this if it wasn't for God. Thank you Lord for finding me worthy of this great privilege. To summarise, this is an abridged version of the story:

NOC - 4021
CRS - 470
ITA- 12th August, 2019
Medicals at Q Life - 3rd September, 2019
PCC at Alagbon - 3rd September, 2019
Application fee and RPRF - 6th September, 2019
AOR- 6th September
ADR (Schedule A) - 20th September. This was due to overlap in my work and study history. I didn't submit a LOE initially. Schedule A didn't validate so I submitted like that with LOE.
MEP/BIL- 25th September
Biometrics completed - 27th September
1st Ghost update - 28th September
1st October 2019 - Raised CSE to inform IRCC of different name on my birth certificate, though none of my credentials had the name. To explain, my name is Ciroma, Chukwuma Adekunle but my birth certificate had the names Ciroma, Olaide Chukwuma. I just needed my peace of mind to declare all, not like I submitted my birth certificate with my application.
4th December - Raised a CSE requesting to know my Visa Office
10th December - CSE was replied with Visa Office being Ottawa.
Call to IRCC - 30th December, 2019 (The long silence finally got to me and I developed this anxiety about wanting information about my application. Totally pointless as I got no meaningful information; Dingtone app and number were useless thereafter. Waste of my time and money to be honest. Not something I'll recommend as it has no effect on the application and only increases your tension)
2nd Ghost Update - 8th January, 2020. Additional documents (Schedule A) changed to "Not Applicable"
PPR - 9th January, 2020
Passport Submission at VFS - 13th January, 2020
Application approved in profile - 29th January, 2020
Mail received from "Accra Immigration" on Visa affixed to Passport - 7th February, 2020 (I was actually on my way to VFS Lagos when I got the mail)
COPR picked up at VFS - 7th February, 2020
Single applicant (na only me waka come)
Stream- FSW-O

Document to upload
Prior to submission, I created a folder on my laptop labelled "Express Entry 2019", an idea I got here on the thread.

I labelled each sub-folders as follows:
1. Digital Photograph (contained the digital photograph in jpeg format alone)
2. Education Document (contained WES Evaluation Report, IELTS Test Report Form, Masters degree statement of result, Bachelors degree certificate and WAEC certificate; all merged together and appropriately labelled using ilovepdf.com)
3. Employment Document (contained Employment Reference Letter, Offer of Employment Letter, Confirmation of Appointment Letter, Promotion Letter, Personal Emoluments Cards showing salary payments from January to August, 2019, Work Identity Card front and back, Bank statement from January to August with salary payments highlighted with pdf highlighter; all merged together and appropriately labelled using ilovepdf.com)
4. Letter of Explanation (LOE) - I had no need for this so the folder was empty.
5. Medical Certificate - The e-medical information sheet I was given at Q Life. It was rightly labelled "Medical form" so there is no mistake when uploading.
6. Passport - The data page and other page of my International Passport in pdf format.
7. Police Certificate - The pink police character certificate, The page with applicant name and fingerprints, the second page with my passport photograph and "reason for enquiry" being Canada; all merged together and appropriately labelled using ilovepdf.com)
8. Proof of Funds - Proof of funds summary with conversion from Nigerian Naira to Canadian Dollar and 25% of Pension funds calculation, Bank Reference Letter addressed to IRCC, Nigerian Treasury Bills Investment Certificate (soft copy sent from the bank to me), Bank statement highlighting Treasury bill investment and re-investment from January to August, Retirement Savings Account Statement (also soft copy sent to me), oanda.com screenshot of Nigerian Naira to Canadian Dollar as at day of submission; all merged together and appropriately labelled using ilovepdf.com)
Note: I was of the opinion that it was better to submit all relevant document without holding back any than to hold

Post-AOR and Waiting for PPR
Prior to uploading and submission of all the document, I checked and re-checked to make sure the labellings were correct and there were no mistakes. I uploaded all document on the 6th of September and paid using Sterling Visa card same day. I paid all fees upfront (CAD$ 1125) which was a little above 300k and got the AOR mail almost immediately.
On the 8th of January, I checked messages on the OVO group and noticed someone with an AOR date close to mine got a "miracle update". Immediately, I logged in to my account half expecting to see "submitted". I jumped from the bed when I saw "Application/Profile updated". I took a screenshot of it and kept staring at the screen for some time before I opened the profile to see that the ADR had changed to "Not Applicable". I was so happy but anxious at the same time, I didn't want to imagine what it could mean. I logged in to my LinkedIn to see that my profile was viewed the previous day by two people in "Private mode".
The next day, being the 9th, I just couldn't wait for 11pm as that was the time the mails seemed to drop. Around 8pm, I got carried away in an interesting conversation and didn't take cognisance of the time. I dropped the call around 10:50pm and realized my mobile network wasn't available. I switched to my other line and immediately the data connected, I got a mail in my box. My brothers and sisters, I just knew in my mind it was THE GOLDEN MAIL. I scrolled down without opening and saw "Ready for Visa". Jesus is Lord. Thank you Lord. God bless Canada and may Canada always be a blessed country. May Canada always be a leader in the comity of nations. Oh, you beautiful and blessed country.

Appreciation and Advice
Thank you all for having read this far. Thank you to the people who started this great thread, it is an information database on this journey and every question you could think of has been answered. I joined this thread around part 5 and I can say for a fact it simplified the journey for me. Thank you to all members of August/September/October WhatsApp group and OVO (Baddest) group. You guys made the wait worthwhile. Thank you to justwise, topsmamen, ladymarshall, yemblaze, bankyh1905, ednut1, tina26 (I call you Margaret Thatcher), iaatmguy, stencil and the other numerous people who give selflessly to make this thread an information trove. God bless you all. To everyone on this journey, please take your own future in your hands and take charge. Read and read whatever information you can lay your hands on. This is your future and I can assure you it will be worth the effort. With God on your side, you can totally accomplish this without the help of any agent. This thread is your "agent". To those of us post-PPR, let us not get carried away and lose sight of why we had to leave Nigeria in the first place. We are going to a society that works and it is our job to be the best we can be over there. We have a duty of care to change the perception of Nigerians by being our best. Let's endeavour to leave any bad habits here in Nigeria and be prepared to live with a respect of other people's cultures and an open mind. I'm sure that having come this far, we are willing to give what it takes to make a success of our life in Canada. There are people counting on our good behaviours, we can't afford to disappoint them. God bless us all. Like we say here, "It has truly ended in praise". See you all on the other side of the Atlantic. Stay blessed everyone, cheers. [quote]

Naah, please don't be like that. He had his reasons for telling me to adjust and he didn't ban me, only told me to summarise. Please let's be fair. He seems to be a great guy and there was no malice or prejudice intended. All love.

I think you should delete this, I don't see any sense in it. PPR or leaving Nigeria is not "success". The human being u are referring to is a PPR of a more powerful and better country.
I don't support deleting people's post cos is too long, that's petty.
