This is for all waiting for ECA report from IQAS.
I called their customer service some mins ago and the information the lady gave me shocked and decide to inform others too in order to make a good decision.
The rep.told me that they are still working on transcripts received up to July 18th while 19th and above still on queue. More over, the 9 to 10 weeks processing period starts when they send u acknowledgement mail.
Also, for fresh applications that are yet to receive the first mail, they are still on July 28th. So if your application is yet to be keyed into their system, we are free to apply for refund of the of application fee excluding the courier fees.
Thought it's worth sharing as I am applying for the refund asap.
before u do... Remember schools are going on strike. How do u verify when WES sends transcript to ur school.?

Thanks for your response.

So I will send the two transcripts to ICES differently from the same schools? How to I reference it?

2. But is it adviceable I choose that path where I add my spouse after I must have gotten AOR?

Thank you

I dislike to be a party pooper but if you're at the stage of requesting transcript from your alma mater, you might want to do all within your reach to have it sorted ASAP as the three non-academic unions of universities (SSANU, NASU and NAT) might be joining ASUU's strike come next week Wednesday. Outcome of a referendum from the three bodies is expected to be submitted on Wednesday, that will decide their course of action.

@Issyman @codebrew85 @Saintp

Maybe you should wait for the outcome of their meeting/get updates before you cancel your pending application with IQAS.

Better to have a delayed assessment than none at all due to transcript.

You may wish to go ahead if transcripts have been obtained for ICES already.

Good morning Fam, please is there anyone here who has processed his transcript for Masters from Unilag. I need relevant information/guidance.
It also appears Iqas and WES are not favourable to use at this time.
Anyone used ICES recently? Please share your experience

codebrew85:
My preference wasn't based on any long standing name or prestige that WES might have other than the fact that WES and schools 'in the abroad' roll well together. As in , there won't be any delay in verification by the school as cochtrane pointed out. Also, they tend to process ECA within 21 working days.
WES processing time is now 7 working days! With that, a UK degree will sure receive ECA in about 2 weeks well ahead of ICES 4 - 5 weeks.

Congratulations to you and all other PPR recipients smiley

Few takeaways from and comments on your testimony:

LOE is necessary when you have something to explain e.g. a seeming inconsistency that could be easily picked by a reviewer and which may lead to ADR, cancellation or a rejection.

If you don't have an ironclad explanation for an issue or if it would be lies (which they may eventually pick out), it may be better to just submit required documents and hope for the best just like you did.

Your hubby already had the maximum points required for EE (3 years) so the work reference appears okay. Could have been seen as a minor error.

That you forgot your visa denial was an omission. Applicants should not think this is a norm but rather an exception. Many have gotten away with this or simply get ADRs while some were not so fortunate.

Every application is unique. What works for one person may not work for another. Once again, I rejoice with you. Congrats!

Thanks for the correction.... Guess most people mis-interpreted my last post and for clarity sake cos sometimes words don't just come out right the way you want them to. The importance of LOE" can't be over emphasized. It helps explain discrepancies and makes an application easily understandable. So I'm not discouraging this. The point I'm trying to make is what you've stated in ur second paragraph, ones lies is what you have to explain just let it be and pray for favour. I just feel lies complicate things especially when trying to cover the source of funds used as pof.
Please note, I'm only speaking from what I have experienced so other people who have pending application with discrepancies can have a refreshed hope. May God make it easy for us all.

Good job here.
How long does it take ICAS to prepare a comprehensive post secondary assessment report. They stated 20weeks on their site but I was wondering if by anyone here's experience it'd been shorter!

Am wondering if could be added to any WhatsApp group on Canada or immigration

Hey guys, its been a while we heard from our PM @Justin Trudeau. Any info on if and how he was able to resolve his IELTS ish? #bringbackourPM
True, our PM has been MIA for a while, though it takes 2 weeks for results held for QA/QC to be released.

Your post also brings to memory @optionese - he suspended his PR pursuit almost two months ago. If you read this optionese, our thoughts are with you as you try getting your concerns sorted.

Please guys, someone who wants to migrate asked me a question and I didn't know the answer.
He works in a family owned company as an accountant. His dad is the owner and his brother is the HR manager. His experience matches with one of the NOCs and age is good but the problem is that his elder brother who is the head of HR will have to sign his reference. The answer the same surname. He does not have another experience outside it.
Is this a problem?

I don't think you need to worry about the template. If you go to the High Court in your locality, you will see those that will prepare it for you for a small fee.
