Hey guys,

I need your advice. Few days ago, I had to get my reference letter from my former employer. The company no longer exist but I had to meet with the CEO to give me a reference letter with the company letterhead. He did not include his website and official email address because they are no longer functional. However, he included his personal email and phone number. I wish to explain all these in my LOE ( letter of explanation). Is there something else I need to do?

BTW, I worked there for 2 years immediately after
my NYSC. I've been in my present place of work for 7 years and can easily get reference letter from them.

I did not get mine in Abuja in 2016. I got it in Lagos at the passport office in Festac. It however took over a month before I got my new passport (in my husband's name) because they had to scan my documents to Abuja and wait for their authorization before proceeding with the scanning and the rest of it. They said it was their procedure for "change of name" passports - Abuja needs to authorise it . I don't know if the situation has changed now.

Get reference letter for the present place of work only to save you all the explanations. It's 7yrs and you just need 3yrs to get max score so you are good. Put the former experience(s) in your personal history.

Goodluck.

Hi guys.
Please, i need your advice.
I have been hearing about Canadian PR. I am really confused on what to do in relocating.
Am an Accounting graduate with second class upper degree who started training in an international audit firm in lagos in 2010 as an Audit Associate, after three and half years went to further my studies in forensic accounting in United Kingdom where I gained a master degree and had a merit. After study joined back my firm and was an Audit Senior Associate till i left end of 2016.
Having in total close to 5 years experience in Financial Audit. Moved as an Accountant reporting to the Financial controller in a growing energy servicing firm from late 2016 till date. My wife is a graduate of law and called to bar with over two years experience in Law practice as a legal practitioner also with a masters degree in Management in United Kingdom. We presently have a kid and am 31 years old.
I have researched my eyes out and read everything there is to read. I think I am even more confused. I need to start the process and also want to know our chances on which one gives us a better chance of getting the PR. For those that have done this before, what is your opinion and how long will the process take as am just about to start.

Thanks

Hi guys.
Please, i need your advice.
I empathize with you... You hear about New Zealand, Canada, Australia among others and you try to read but get discouraged when you don't have the right content or guidance.

You have come to the right place if only you'd invest time, to read. If you will, please read page 0 of this part 3, then do more time on part 2 and 1. You'd find the links on page 0

See that long story you put up there, it's simply put as you're 31, have a masters and over three years experience. You are a hot cake. If there's any at all, it's just a little more Canada desires more than you... Canada awaits you!

Hi, thank you for your help but the problem is this:
1. My sister is a contracted staff to the company so her employment letter is carrying her contractor's letter head not the Company she has been contracted out to work with.
2. Her job description has evolved to another role since she started working there but the Contractor(which is her direct employer) has failed to include this updated job description in her reference letter.
The role that's included cannot fetch her any point as it is not relatable to her job description.
Her job description now is NOC 1225 but what is written in her reference letter is 1221
please what can she do? cc @glitteringstar @einsteino, @cochtrane, @40manlappy. Please i need your help
Hi, I see no issues with #1. When filling name of employer, let her fill the Contractor's name. That's her real employer not where she's working.

#2. Did she ever work as 1221? If yes, for how long? If under 3years and that will give her ITA score, let her use the reference letter as it is and move her 1225 to personal history. If the 1221 is less than 3 years but needs the 1225 to shore up ITA score, then LOE to the rescue plus all smslive2 earlier listed. If the 1221 is however 3 years or more, do same as bolded.

#1. N71k+ is in order. 68k is for IELTS and not ECA.

#2. Some edits are allowed, you can edit your mailing address and login details for starters. You may need to contact WES (maybe with proof) for other edits.

#3. A number of ways.
i. Rename the document(s) to be sent to show your Name, WES Reference Number and Degree.
ii. Add a cover page (either by adding additional page to be sent or through the hellofax cover page) detailing your reference number.
iii. Attach a very small piece of paper on your certificate(s) with your reference number written on the paper, then scan. Fix the piece on a corner but make sure no lettering or logo on the document is covered.
iv. Combination of some or all of i - iii grin

Hello,

Does anyone know if paid internships after Nysc count towards work experience for Express Entry(FSW)
Any work experience where you are supervised does not count. Whether paid or unpaid.
This is one reason people in the medical profession cannot quote their highly paid internships as a work experience.
