depends. If your HOD will sign the ref letter if you state otherwise fine. if not, you can always use this sample.

***sample***
this is to certify that Mr Nelronaldo worked as an Intern Medical doctor (or medical officer, whichever) in the department of medicine from 23rd January 2050 to .........

Thanks. I just sent a PM.

Another question. You know Nigerian universities usually award degree a year after graduation, automatically making the day degree was awarded as your graduation date. What do I do because I started housemaship in January while my degree was award November that year? Should I leave out the housemanship because of this?

Officially, it takes 2 to 21 days, max 28 days, but I have read some here waiting for about 2 months. After 28 days, you should begin to follow up with BC.

Hello everyone,
Please I want to clarify something. I heard the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada all share database. During my application for visiting visa to UK in 2017, I was wrongly advised to fill married (I was and still single) to aid the application.

Has anyone seen anyone who had this same issue before? The closest I've seen is someone who filled married while applying for US but at the point of applying for Canada PR, he was genuinely married, so that kinda sorted everything out.

What is the best and safest option to follow in my case? Single/never married or Separated/divorce?

Thanks for your response and the yabbing grin grin

Yabbing will come later angry, but let’s fix this first grin

It’s best to be safe than sorry. Be transparent. Write a letter of explanation and inform them as it really is. Don’t hold back any information. Every detail matters. It was a case of misrepresentation. You are applying for Canadian PR while you’re still single, so leave it as single and explain yourself. Reverse the roles and put your position in the Visa Officer’s. How would you want the applicant to convince you?

Great! One tip I will give though is to study the past questions very well. The good thing too is that they provide answer scripts to the questions. You can then see how to answer the questions correctly

Hi from the thread on Canada visa I noticed you evaluated three different certificates. I.e Diploma in IT, Certificate in IT and post graduate diploma in IT. Was it the three certs that was equated to a three year program? I.e one per year?

Its professional graduate diploma which is evaluated to a three year degree

Apart from filling in your personal history post-ita, i don't think there's a scenario where that could be a problem.
Besides, you qualify to practice the very moment you pass all prescribed examination in your school. The rest that follows is just ceremony. that's why you were even given the opportunity to start your internship before the certificate was issued, in the first place. You can always write a letter of explanation if it'll raise some red flags post-ITA. till then, you are good to go.

but then, that's just my opinion.

I couldn't find anyone who had exact same qualifications so I went ahead, got a positive evaluation and left a feedback
PPR where are you?? sad

@Sthill5, may I ask how long(program duration) it took to complete either/each of the 3? I have a BIL who is in the I.T. field, his CRS is presently 426 so we're looking for a way to increase his score.

1. Certificate in IT (https://www.bcs.org/category/18082)
2. Diploma in IT (https://www.bcs.org/category/18083)
3. Professional Graduate Diploma in IT (https://www.bcs.org/category/18084)

Thanks.

Congratulations to those who got PPR @tojued and @canadasGOAT. May Canada be favourable to you and yours.
My spouse and I are post ITA and we were expecting our biometrics request. Instead, we noticed that our profile changed showing different UCI numbers, with our old biometrics numbers(issued for previous Canadian tourist visa) with the biometrics date and expiration (10yrs). Has anyone experienced this before?
What is the way forward now? I'm a bit surprised.
Thank you.

Brotherly, please do not give up or be dispirited. You have come a long way already. As I am now, I don't know how to raise my own POF (although I'm not there yet), but I know that something will show up. I have plans here and there but nothing is guaranteed, I trust in God nonetheless. If a total stranger could pay my law school fees years ago, what else can God not do? Nothing! And what he has done for people like me, he will do for you too. Only believe. That you shall succeed in this task is as sure as God reigns!
If my memory serves me well, does this person believe in God? Cos I remember a post where he was against those praying to pass IELTS. Pls don't mind my aproko o grin. Truly, there's nothing God can't do, I'm a living proof and I'll definitely share my testimony soon. Congrats @Ramj, class prefect of Nov AOR group. I'm so happy for you bro smiley.

Yeah, I am aware that your post ITA details have to tally with the details on the Express entry. That's why I want to clarify this at least
