What do you mean by not being a bonafide student please? Was there a misrepresentation in your application back then? Well, I do not think that would adversely affect your present application but you need to make mention of that refusal where need be.

Hello guys,

Who recently used GT Bank Naira card for transaction? How much did they charge per canadian dollar?

Thanks.

Emmasonic4me:
Please can folks here who used WES for ECA confirm if harmonized sales tax (HST) was part of the charge.

Maxxyfruit:


Yes it is one of the charges, outside the 200CAD. They would show you the breakdown of the charges before and after your payment.

sweetrie:
have you passed Medicals

victor83:

for GT through internet transfer it was N301 per Canadian dollar

I hope the info will be useful

Did you know you can get a refund of the harmonized sales tax (HST) after evaluating your credentials with WES??

I just stumbled on this(attached screenshots) and some people who tried it have recorded successful refund of $37.05.
It was discussed that the HST is paid by Canadians and since we are not (at this point), it shouldn't have been part of the bill.

I used IQAS for my ECA so it doesn't apply. Please let's explore this and see what happens for those who used WES.

Caveat: I do not know yet if there's a time frame or validity period to ask for a refund.

Hi, This is true but I would like to make some clarifications on some parts not totally true as I have gotten the mail for my HST refund.

1. The refund is not at a fixed at $37.05 as mentioned.
I want to believe that's the amount to be refunded if you paid $322 (International Courier of ECA).

I got a refund of $26.91 because I paid $233 (Standard Shipping of ECA)

2. The HST is not only paid by Canadians, it is paid by anyone who does a transaction within Canada either Canadian or Nigerian or Indian.
However, a Non-Canadian who does not live within Canada can request for a refund of the HST after such transaction has been successfully carried out upon evidence that he does not live in Canada - in this case, the mailing address of where the ECA was sent to or the mailing address on the card of payment.

I hope this helps. Thanks.
N.B.
I applied for the refund first week of January and just got a response 2 days ago.

will try it. Thanks

Thanks for the clarification. However, I'm just curious to know why you have hidden this information from this forum until I found and posted it here.

I thought we are all helping each other with vital information here. Anyways, now that it has come to bare, let those who are affected explore it.
