Please I need advice on this.

I submitted a request for a reference letter to the HR in my organization through my director and he returned it, telling me to state where the letter would be addressed to and for what purpose I needed one. The problem is, I dont intend to reveal my intention to obtain a Canadian PR. Is there anyway around this? For instance, can I state that I intend to apply for a Canadian visa and as such have them address it to the Deputy High Commission in Lagos? But then will IRCC have a problem seeing the reference letter addressed to the High Commission?

Please advice

thank you!

Absolutely yes. To me, preparing for IELTS isn't really much of improving what is already known rather mastering what is needed to pass the exams. Time needed to prepare however depends on individual skills/strenght.
You and this word.

Good news to people residing in Abeokuta:

You can now take your IELTS in Abeokuta

https://www.britishcouncil.org.ng/british-council-ielts-now-abeokuta

Yeah. This has been on for about a month now but unfortunately it's just once in a month as against other centres.

I was thinking I'll take advantage of this but for my two weeks time target. Guess I'll have to go for Ibadan

Thanks @ mrsjustveryok and kontagious for the encouragement and link. God bless the remaining part of our journey

1. Calculate ur CRS points with u as the principal, with spouse OND/HND evaluation but without spouse IELTS. If you're okay with your points, fine.

2. If your points are not okay enough, its either u try further to appease your spouse to do IELTS or you simply tell him you will fill him as an un-accompanying spouse and if he agrees to it, fine as well.

Like I told mine when he was forming busy at work that no time to write IELTS, I said no problem, I cannot come and select married and accompanying and u won't make efforts to support me to beef up my CRS. When he knew I had an option of 'un-accompanying spouse, he quickly found time out of no time for d IELTS.

CRS with him but without his IELTS was 419,
CRS without him (un accompanying) was 435
CRS with him after IELTS was 433. That was how I chopped ITA last week.

In fact all those times when CRS was 434, 435 he was just making jest of me upandan that so if he had 'unaccompanied' me na so I for don chop ITA since.

Orisa boo le gbemi; shemi bo shey bami... I need translation please.

Hello guys, please I would like to get your opinion on this especially those who have done it already. Do you think that two weeks is enough time to prepare, write and pass IELTS excellently?

Cheers

You can even prepare in one day, it depends on your English Language Level. Do an assessment of where you are and where you need to be. Analyse your weak areas, for some its writing. Your weak area is what will determine the time-frame, writing for example will require more practice than the rest. Listening too could require frequent practice, in summary there is no 'one size fits all cap'

Hi TTTTTolu, apologies for the "attack". My Visa Office is London, file just moved there, so you can imagine my tension. Really looking for hope,
if you understand what i mean. Your timeline is not bad, five months. Congratulations and enjoy the moment.

Thanks for the update.

They need PROOF of funds and not a letter. A letter proves nothing as the writer can renege on his promises. The funds must be readily available to you...your cousin's funds are not readily available.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp

What we accept as proof

Funds must be readily available to you. For example, you can't use equity on real property as proof of settlement funds.

The funds must be available both when you apply and when (if) we issue you a permanent resident visa. You must prove to an immigration officer that you can legally access them to use to settle here when you arrive.

For proof, you must get official letters from any banks or financial institutions where you are keeping money.

Letter(s) must:
•be printed on the financial institution’s letterhead
•include their contact information (address, telephone number and email address)
•include your name
•list outstanding debts such as credit card debts and loans
•include, for each current bank and investment account: ◦account numbers
◦the date each account was opened
◦the current balance of each account
◦the average balance for the past six months



Thanks so much smslive2 and ajiifixing. Is it true that they verify your POF at the point of entry? If true, how? Will they tell me to log on to my internet banking account or what?

Hi,

Truth be told, for two reasons your CRS will be low if your husband does not take the IELTS. 1. You have only BSc and 2. You're a bit advanced in age. You've lost significant points in those two factors then another 20 lost with your spouse not writing IELTS. The system does not really favour BSc alone, your age then coupled with spouse not writing IELTS.

As a fact, if your husband is not too far off you in age, he is a much better candidate at being PA because of his two or more certificates.

Use the CRS tool to permutate your scores but it will be good if you both write. You'd get to make up points lost in age.
