I have read on this thread of someone that did it and it worked. Just ensure the transcript envelope is sealed and stamped by your school.

Another option is to send a scanned copy of your certificate via email to a friend/family in Canada to help you post it. I don't think it will cost more than 10 CAD to post locally as it costs from £1 - £6 to post to Canada from the UK.

The application form and checklist is not necessary. I did not include it in my transcripts and there was no issue. In fact, a friend included it and her transcript was rejected as WES claimed it was not sent directly from school. She had to instruct her school to resend it again and without the checklist before it was accepted. I am not sure if the checklist was the cause though.

Nievel:
Hello house. Please has anyone tried sending application form and checklist to your school to include in your transcript package instead of sending another seperate package I.e double cost.
Can one scan the signed application form and checklist to the school to print out and include in your package? Has anyone tried this. Pls let me know your thoughts.
Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by dupyshoo: 12:07pm On Nov 30, 2016
I have posted the address before so check my previous posts for it.

More importantly, I don't think you have to get the address exactly right, Since they accept "To Whom It May Concern", I believe if you just address it to the Visa Officer, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) as shown below, it will be accepted. There is no need stressing yourself too much about it.

Visa Officer,
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)

Good day All,

Where I currently work do not address Reference Letters to "Whom it may concern". I am confused of the address they can use other than "whom it might concern". I have seen lots of address, Please help clarify the alternative address they can use for immigration.

Please help, it is actually delaying my reference letter.

Thanks

Hello All, thanks to everyone keeping the thread alive with valuable information.
Please I need clarity. We were asked to send some documents which account statement is part of.
Thing is money in my husband account is currently not up to the required amount so I transferred money from my account to his account to make up the required amount.
My question is do we need to write the letter(gift something- not really sure what it is)? I am asking because the money is from husband to wife and the wife has proof of having the money.

Vcole, dupyshoo, Jesustheway and every other person on this thread, please respond.

Thanks

Hello dtk,


Pls did you eventually obtain a contact in OOU.I need one too?

Thanks.

Or anyone else in the house who can help pls.


dtk:
Hello House,

Pls anyone with any contact in OOU Ago Iwoye that can assist for transcript purposes ? Or if you have gotten yours, how did you go about getting the transcript? Out of 4 schools, that's the only one left at the moment. Thanks.

Then, for those that evaluated their first and masters degree with IQAS, my transcript for masters has already been delivered on Monday to IQAS but they are yet to send a mail to confirm receipt as stated on their site. Are they waiting to get my first degree transcript as well before they confirm receipt since they are to evaluate the two degrees or what exactly ? My wife masters degree transcript ought to have been delivered to IQAS from the UK school. The school did not provide us with the courier tracking details and we need confirmation they have received the document while we work on the OOU first degree transcript. Pls assist gurus. Thanks.

Hello house,

My understanding of this item is in 2ways and I would like some clarity pls.

I) the number of years of work experience the applicant has spent working in Canada OR

2) the number of years of work experience the applicant has worked in any country but must be in the NOC categories recongnised in Canada's labour market.


Opinions pls,especially from those that have scaled beyond this step.

Thanks a lot.

You're right sis,costs 3CAD to post it locally within Canada, normal mail and they receive it in less than 5days regardless of which part of the country its posted from

Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by Gymme(m): 8:30pm On Nov 30, 2016
Just what i was explaining to some friends. The new EE changes is not looking favorable to those outside Canada except they go through PNP.

Hopefully, the cut off point comes down soon.

Thanks Duppysho. I am using IQAS. It seems they are particular about the application form, checklist and also sending notorised copies of certificates. I guess WES requirement is different.

Hello Gurus,

I have taken my time to read through for weeks, or months now on here though I'm off .I like to salute the efforts and brains behind the forum, God bless you!
My situation is as follows: married with one child, have about 5yrs work experience though I can only get reference from recent employer, have bsc n MBA but both schools have k leg- 1 OOU says it's 50k, since then no response. 2 lautech has been on strike since. This implies I can't get my documents verified or transcript sent.currently writing ielts and I really don't know my chances with this new draw of 7hundred plus!
Would appreciate if someone can take me through the calculation thing perhaps we can just talk or chat through them once and for all. Meanwhile I wish that we all achieve what we have devoted our time,money and so on for...

I used WES so I don't know so much about IQAS requirements. A lot of people have used IQAS on this thread. Specifically, Iphie25 might be able to give first hand information as she used IQAS.

Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by vcole: 11:38am On Dec 01, 2016
Used IQAS for my hubby's ECA.
Send the application form and checklist and copies of your credential(s) and passport biodata page via courier to their address while your school sends your transcript and the completed form (can't remember what its called) to IQAS. No need trying the option of giving it to your school, they would reject the application stating that it was not sent by the school directly.

I do not think a gift deed is necessary. Just a simple letter of explanation stating that you did transfer the funds (your personal funds) to meet the funds requirement for your family size.

Good afternoon house,

I just saw that today's draw was 786, well if you ask me, I will say that is expected.

Please read: http://www.cicnews.com/2016/11/express-entry-human-capital-skills-experience-more-prominent-under-new-system-118705.html

David Cohen in his blog/newsletter predicted that this would happen because of the drop in point from 600 to 200 for people that have job offers but he also said that it would eventually get low after a while in about 6-7 draws.

So be hopeful and look forward to the next 3-4months, give or take and you could be on your way to getting an ITA.

God bless our hustle. wink wink wink smiley

@BabaArmani: OOU transcript now goes for 50k. You also have to pay 1k for Alumni.

However, you can get Lautech transcript and evaluate the MBA alone, especially if it complements your nominated occupation.
