Etfash:


Thank you for the response. However, i'm finding it difficult to modify the list of documents that i should submit.

I actually intend to expunge my First degree since Unilag already sent my Masters document.

@ddestiny

to write WES, send mail to: inquiryca@wes.org not autosender@wes.org

zandora:


Don't expunge your first degree because since you did your Master's in Unilag there's no guarantee that it would be assessed as a Canadian Master's. Evaluate both Bachelor's and Master's.

Etfash:


This is a little disturbing. My MSc in Unilag ran for about 2 years and the pre-evaluation i did on their website equated it to an MSc in Canada.

Has any one who obtained a Unilag MSc been evaluated as having a qualification less than a Canadian MSc?

Now, my first degree was in U.I. and getting there is an issue right now.. I left there more than 7 years ago, my links may not be as strong.

Is there anyone who already evaluated a Unilag PG degree alone and had it equated to a Canadian MSc in the house?

bosypumpin:
Hi everyone, nice work going on here and Ive learnt sooo much.

I just saw my IELTS result of the test written on August 1st, now and i had a
7.0 viz Listening=7.5 Reading= 7.0 Writing= 7.0 Speaking= 6.5

My question goes thus: as per WES should I evaluate my first degree and leave out the secondary school aspect?(getting a transcript is not a problem from my school at all.)

If i include Secondary school leaving certificate, am i buying a WAEC scratch card and giving details?
If WAEC would delay me, kindly advise whether to strike it out or ?

My NOC IS 4112, I'M A lawyer

Shyee, and berexio1. i PMed u,since yesterday.
Thank you my gurus, Jesus Dway et al

@ ddestiny, please any update?

...
However, having lived in the West (America) I know that as an Immigrant your chances start the moment you become a permanent resident. Conversely, to be a permanent resident (for my visa status) I need at least to stay legal in the US for eight years - many of my friends don't mind staying that long - but for me; I don't see myself staying in the states for eight straight years just to be a permanent resident...

Thank you.

Can my spouse still be the principal applicant?

WoodcrestMayor:
AceOak,your input would be much appreciated here.

Bahaushiya:
Good evening.
Please my husband and I are interested in applying, we contacted an expert and the charge is much. A friend applied to another country and with the help of people in this section they were guided on how to go about the application and it was a success.
The person we contacted said he has never failed anyone since he started, and that he will give us proper formats for the application and all, but the money is a lot.
Please if anyone here can help us with guidance for the express entry application I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.

Thanks everyone. I'm willing to give any information that would help.

cherie24:
@Bahaushiya...I am also interested just as you. But house please, does it mean that you do not have any chance if
1) You do not have any relative in Canada
2) You do not get a job offer.

I understand these two gives very high points.

Please help help us...

Evening great nairalanders,
I once applied for FSWP 2013 through and agent whom i submitted my IELTS result,all my credentials for evaluation and all that to,paid him as well but nothing came out of it. I intend processing the EE my self now but need some clarifications;
1) I studied chem. Engr as my first degree and have gotten an MBA now,how do i chose an occupation in the NOIC list as i do not have any work experience in my first degree of study but have over 5yrs experience in the financial industry.
2) how do i get my IELTS result from BC again as i can't contact the agent i gave the first one to in 2013.
3) can i get a step by step approach on the EE as for to know what to do next at the right time.
4) I am now married,does my wife have to write the IELTS too as i will now be including her in my application.
I'd really appreciate anyone's response on this.

superchi:


You cannot edit the not eligible one. Just start with the online tool ''Come to Canada''. Complete it and copy the reference number at the end. Go to your existing ''MyCIC'' profile sign in and start a new EE form. The first thing you will need is the ref.number you copied. Try it.

Reasons you would not be eligible for Express Entry include:
• not having a valid language test (IELTS)
• language test results that are more than two years old (NOT TRUE-December 2014)
• a language test score that is too low (NOT TRUE-Principal applicant:Listening-6.5, Reading-7, Writing-7, Speaking-7.5. Overall score-7 Me: Listening-8, Reading-8, Writing-7, Speaking-6.5. Overall score-7.5)
• not having enough relevant work experience (NOT LIKELY=Principal applicant:6 years, a chartered accountant; Me-9 years, banker)
• not having the required education level (NOT LIKELY-Principal applicant:Bsc, ACA; Me-Bsc, ACIB, MBA)
• not having enough funds (NOT LIKELY-22,000 CAD)

We are all here to help one another..Start by acquainting ursef with loads of info here and abbreviations..Start reading...we will be here to answer ur specific questions when u decide to ask.We simply do it ourselves here..U don't need an agent

Thanks very much superchi and also JesusDWay but at this point, I do not know what else to do.

We created another profile and reviewed it very carefully before submission, taking note of superchi's advice but on checking our status this morning, it was disappointing to see "Not eligible for Express Entry" AGAIN on our MyCIC status.

What we saw is the usual generic response in a PDF letter:



Kindly proffer suggestions again because I am not giving up easily. I intend to create another profile today.

Looping: Slimmsyyetty, damkollins, solomonwis, dupyshoo, Tola73, RedCapChief, unibadan, Taiwoabo

Did you add all your education from primary school till date in the education history?

Etfash:
Good day house.
I am a little curious:

1) Why does IELTS coordinators seek to know where one intends to migrate to?

2) Why is it that people score a band of 7 and above in three of the modules and then score slightly less than 7 in one of the modules? Is this done to test takers deliberately?

3) Is IELTS also working with CIC to check the influx of people to Canada?

These are just a few thoughts i have... Check out the scores in this page alone, for 40manlappy, his wife and even the poster before him in this page; mine wasn't any different: 8.5, 8, 8 and 6.5. I lost over 50 points on account of this.

I would have enquired but, having read the experience of many, it may just be better to write another one.

slimmsyyetty:


Have you evaluated your credentials

JesusDWay:


You know, the one that baffles me most is how Indians with poor English seem to do better than us. You look at the way some of them write and yet, when they highlight their IELTS result, you wonder how they made such grade.

40manlappy:


Yes, we did. Thanks for responding

zandora:


Very strange. Kindly answer the following questions.
How many years did your education come up to? Was it up to 17 years? Yes, Principal Applicant (PA)=17, Me=20

What is your IELTS individual band score? PA:Listening-6.5, Reading-7, Writing-7, Speaking-7.5. Overall score-7 Me: Listening-8, Reading-8, Writing-7, Speaking-6.5. Overall score-7.5)
How many years experience do you have and from which NOC? PA=6 NOC 1111, Me=0122
Finally were you able to get through the Come to Canada tool and receive a code? Yes
