I dont know what you mean by post. If its post as in NIPOST, i dont know, but courier service takes 3 days.

Yes I mean by mail like NIPOST. Someone here mentioned that his took 15days. That puts mine to around ending of the month. I'll just keep cross checking my forms till them. I should send them, God willing, by 31st Oct. God be my strength.

Hi, that's quite high, thats N153/cad. I saw that the exchange rate on oanda.com is N145/cad, why is it so high?
It's high but u didn't include Gtb bank charges for international transaction.
For others who are yet to be charged just make sure u have at least 86k in that CC.

If the both certificates/degrees are from same school and you're sure you can realistically follow it to a logical conclusion,evaluate both.
But if you're sure it will be difficult to follow both at the same time,I will advice you should evaluate the highest degree at of the two.
Nonetheless,evaluating both will give you an additional one point even though it may take longer to finish evaluation if you are not able to follow it on your side.
Cheers.

1.The main difference is how long it will take you to receive the evaluation when completed.Regular mail may take up to a month while international courier will be received within a week.
All is down to the urgency with which you need the evaluated result and the cash at hand......its all your choice and your call.
2.Its their standard procure duration of processing that makes the difference.

A diploma won't give a B.Sc or B.Sn any one point oh. It is 21 points based on the highest degree only.

Wished I had known about this page earlier. I seems to be having some difficulties and will appreciate people's comment/advise.o
I have a BsC and a masters in Petroleum Geology but have 8 years experience in Banking (responsibilities more like a Bank Clerk supervisor) and writing my ACCA presently (have a diploma certificate from ACCA).

I have my WES report for my BsC and Msc and had an average of 7.5 in IELTS (Listening 8, Reading 7.5, Writing 7, Speaking 7) while my wife has an average of 7.

I have a job reference letter in the approved format from my bank ( 6 years of my experience relating Bank Clerks Supervisor)

Now the issue is my academics does not have anything to do with finance. Can I still apply for it? I have a diploma from ACCA in finance, can I add that as a qualification even though it was not included in WES verification.

will appreciate u r urgent help. Thank you

Well, I did. I was able to. In other for you to get this, you might have to attach that page of the checklist to you application letter to your previous employers. Not only that, you have to follow up with calls and build a relationship, stressing the need for the format to be adhered to.
Not only that, pray for God's favor.

All in the name of having a perfect processing.
I did my diploma and Bsc in the same university. The diploma (satelite campus) had to be done to gain the admission then. Though it was done as a direct entry to the university.
I only sent my BSc to WES and it has been evaluated to four years equivalent. Mind you, I started from 200level in the university (3yrs in all).
Now, do I include my diploma along with my BSc with ECA in the package?
If yes, can I use notification of result? As I don't have a ceritficate
OR should I omit the diploma?

Thanks

Dear All....with humility and thankful heart,I notify my fellow colleagues in the house that I just receive my medical request from Accra Visa office.
Not to worry,I'm FSw2013/2014 ...not the current stream so don't panic.

For those of us just starting now,please persist and forge ahead...the journey of a thousand years starts with just a step.

But today, i got a phone call from one Mr. Henry claiming to be working on my file. After asking me some questions, he then said there are some technical errors with my application and that i need to settle him to waive it away. i have asked him to mention the errors, but he refuse.
please i want to know if 1. Accra do call on phone? 2. How do i handle this situation. [I have informed him that i'm NOT going to settle anything, He can take his decision. But then i'm confused].

Scam..someone definitely has your details, someone who is aware that you applied for FSW. Could be friend or family.
The only people i know that try blackmailing applicants are some staff at one of the designated centers for medicals.

Re: Canadian Federal Skilled Worker Program-timelines Here by scrollmeout(m): 9:06pm On Oct 22, 2014
Hello House,

Damkollins, Solomonwis, and others, please I need your honest advice. I think i need to act fast to avert possible decline or delay. My application was received on June 30 and I'm yet to be debited.
I have been monitoring the order of CC charging on another forum since its "first cone first served" and found out some hours ago that July 7 applications are being charged at the moment. I assumed the charging was done on a week by week basis, June 30-July 4 being in the same week.

I am now guessing they are having difficulty charging my card since my app hasn't been returned. I use a First Bank MasterCard. I contacted my closest branch but he guy i met seemed clueless. Is it possible to contact Interswitch directly? What should I do pls? I do not want to more miss the chance having waited for so long. I know CIC will only try 3 rimes before they return your app. Pls help!!!
