Hello All.please I have two questions and I need urgent answers to them:

1.who among us has successfully used his/her statement of result instead of certificate for the wes evaluation?

2.After sending the statement of result to wes for evaluation,that is if they accept it,what is the response I should expect concerning transcript.

I need urgent answers guys.please

Saintp:


I read on hellofax that it is only free for 5 pages. But if you are faxing all the required docs to IQAS, it exceeds 5 pages. For example the signed application document alone is 3 pages, then put degree certificate, checklist, ID and payment receipt shoots it up 7 pages. I'm confused , i don't know if there is something I'm not doing right.

Osemigho:


Don't bug yourself, unilag has a way of answering them with ease. You can visit records office if they don't respond in 1-2wks. I am not sure if it will cost you anything though.

I think that if u have a long term(eg 6-12 mnths) fixed deposit, u can go ahead and use it alongside ur bank reference letter......
I favor treasury bills cos d interest is far better....and will increase ur funds while saving it for u..
concerning account statement, the VO reserves d right to demand further proof if in doubt at any point so just knw that an acct statement profiling recent(6mnths) transaction can be requested.
Cheers.

Hello all,

WES updated my profile yesterday to reviewing documents after the receipt of my transcript from Unilag. I received the email below today:

DOCUMENT VERIFICATION NOTIFICATION

Thank you for submitting your credentials for evaluation to World Education Services (WES). We are committed to preparing evaluations based on documents that are accurate and valid. After an initial review of your documents, we have determined that they must be verified by the institution that issued them.

This is to advise you that photocopies of your documents have been sent to University of Lagos for verification and that your file has been placed on hold until we receive their written response. For more information regarding the verification process please visit our website at: https://www.wes.org/required-documents/

If you are applying to a Canadian college or university, and are waiting for your WES evaluation, we encourage you to share this letter with them to inform them that WES is in the process of verifying your credentials.


Please who knows the process for Unilag? Will they be responding via email or through courier

AwesomeGod:
Please can i send you an email?

Osemigho:
Edited version brought forward. everyone kindly advise me


Thanks. My main bank is the one that doesn't issue cic specified format. The other one that I opened just the week gives letter but there is no way I can't wait for its history to get to six month.

Can I submit savings on GTB and First bank Fixed deposit cert only? she answered this already

Also, I have a 7 year old account with a registered investment company. Will letter or treasury bill from them be acceptable? Treasure certificate yes

Edited: About time, my prayer is to get ITA by 23/08/2017. So I can submit before 31/08/2017.

I have proof of employment ready.

I did medical test for my student visa around March but I'm not sure I can use it for EE. If I need to do another, I will call next week Monday to book an appointment or just use any consultant in Lagos that doesn't require a reservation. I need CIC verifiable opinion on this.

For Passport, I have the one for my student visa, but, I can snap another. To do this, a successful EE applicant should pls recommend an organization in Lagos.

For PCC, I'm in Lagos, PCC can be done in few hours. This is the major reason for my set deadline of submission. I don't know how to obtain valid Nigeria PCC from Canada as school resumes in September. I will like to know how I can. Help!

U can do it before u go like collect and fill d forms then someone helps u submit it when u want it submitted and scans it to u. Or u can do it before going... If u get Ita before end of August.. U wld attach these documents.. So u can actually do it before traveling

I'm working on my POF and need advice too. Elders, Kindly advise. tot u already have that

Thank you.

That was my total bill. Although I'm sending to a Canadian address

I guess that explains it. On their site, it's an additional 85CAD charge for international shipment

Hephgirl:
compared to $7
I noticed cad to usd is a better rate if u use ur American account than naija dom account

Temas:


Delivery Method: Standard Mail via Canada Post - $7.00

I think they will send it to through canadian post to any address in the world... Just that this not an express service.

I chose this option though.(cutting cost).. i hope to get the post mail through our local post office.

Long post alert!!

Although my result is not 100% perfect, below were My IELTS strategy, tips, materials used, etc.

Hello Hephgirl,
I have interest in Canadian PR program, but i don't know how to go by it, can you please help me with the process flow?
I will appreciate you swift response.
Thanks babe.

Starter Pack for newcomers on thread


Step -1
(a). Evaluate your credentials with WES or IQAS
https://www.nairaland.com/2624318/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/45#41743704

(b). You are in the medical profession and are applying as a pharmacist?
https://www.nairaland.com/2624318/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/124#46005448

(c). You are in the medical profession and are applying as a specialist physician?
https://www.nairaland.com/2624318/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/75#43438726

(d). You are not interested in being evaluated as a specialist (or professional in a licenced profession) and just want WES to evaluate your degree as a normal 4-year study? (applicable to medicine, veterinary medicine, dentistry, podiatry, optometry, law, chiropractic medicine, or pharmacy)
Revert back to (a)

Step-2
Register for IELTS and try to get CLB-7 and above.
Register here - https://ielts.britishcouncil.org/nigeria

CLB 7 = Speaking - 6, Listening - 6 to 7, Reading - 6, Writing - 6.
However, in order to score more points, you need to aim for CLB-9 and above, i.e. Speaking - 7, Listening - 8, Reading - 7, Writing - 7

Step-3
Do you have work experience of 1 year or more in Nigeria or your resident country? Good. If yes, then you are on your way to qualifying under the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) program.
Do you have a relation in Canada, related to your by marriage, adoption, blood? Brillant! If yes, more points for you.
But there is the next step!

Step-4
Calculate your CRS score, using your credential evaluation results (known as ECA) and your IELTS score.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp
Did you get a score above or in the range of 440-450? Then your chances are quite bright.
Check here to see the scores of previous rounds. Should give you an idea where you fall
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/past-rounds.asp

What's CRS score? Qualifies you for invitation to apply as a federal skilled worker.
However, make sure that you indeed qualify as a federal skilled worker by taking this eligibility test here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

You will be applying for express entry (immigation) under the federal skilled worker program.

Step-5
Create an account and fill up your Express Entry profile. Your profile will consist of all the information above.

Then, you could be on your way to getting ITA.

What you should read next:

By this time, you should be able to understand the discussion on the thread and then follow the train

Osemigho:


1. For Nigeria PCC when inland, Is there no other process, like verification, than someone getting it and scanning to me?

2. The fund is available but I'm trying to avoid cash lodgement. Current GTB turnover is over 5m but the balance is about 1m. Also, I am aware of GTB CIC letter issues.

3. My First Bank account is less than a week old. I would be glad to use their FD rather than GTB if only FD cert is required. GTB can be frustrating in terms of customer service, I am trying to change fully to FirstBank. Too bad I made the change decision at this late period.

So, to avoid stories, can I just use my investment company account of over 5 years?.

yimiton:
I chose this option when I did mine and received the letter in my house (Lagos) in less than 2 weeks.

yimiton:
Do you know what the exchange rate is from Nigerian Dom account to CAD? I'll be paying my application fee through my Dom account and wondering what the exchange rate is.
