The NOC 0124 is it at least 1yr? If not, use the NOC 1123 as your primary NOC.

Both NOCs are more than 1 year.
I'm glad that I can pick anyone as my Primary NOC.
Thanks Joo.

Jennypharb1:
They are both under NOC 0 and A so I think you're good to go

Okay. Many thanks

Hello guys.
With your solid advice, I've settled for Noc 0124 and 1123. Is it okay if I make any of these Noc my primary noc?

Noc 0124 was from 2016 - 2017
Noc 1123 was from 2017 - present.

Thank you and congratulations to everyone!

kiari:
aww
send me a PM, i will would share my library with you.
let's work together so we can achieve your desired score.
Don't give up...

Thank you.
I've sent you a PM.

I'm sorry guys, I'm not one to express what I'm going through, but I just needed to air my frustrations.

I've had 6.5 in reading on two occasions.
This other modules are fine.

Is it safe to say I need help of some sort?
Any reading expert willing to help me overcome this enigma?

Congratulations to everyone!!
PPR & ITA Clinchers

ladymarshall:
Hmm! Interesting. This is my professional field too, NOC 1123 to be precise.

Since you were not in a managerial position, I think you should stick to NOC 1123 but attach an LOE explaining why this NOC is the best for you, since you were not a manager, despite what the title says. If you want to do "effizzi" and bambooze the VO , provide a breakdown of the career paths in Corp. Comms in Nigerian and explain that it is a common practice to assign "manager" portfolios to non-managerial staff in our industry for whatever reason perhaps to make the title more appealing to potential recruitees, industry policy etc. You are the expert here, so make your case convincingly.

I remembered a lady who had to go to Accra for an interview because her JD was managerial but the title wasn't. She got PPR.

Thank you for this.
I'd be sure to include a well detailed LOE, and intensify my prayers against the most dreaded, Accra.

ans123:
Your NOC is def 0124.....1123 is for non managers in marketing communications(PR,Advertising,Marketing). If anyone is having issues choosing these two NOCs(0124/1123 ONLY) they may contact me.

[qquote author=55emem55 post=76870693]Please,
Second Job title is Social Media Manager, same NOC 1123

Am I on the right path please?

@newmum0615 @ifeoma77 @joo2018

Thanks for your response.
I'm still a bit unclear

I wasn't a manager, It wasn't even a managerial position. I reported directly to the Sales Manager.
It's just like someone who is a customer service manager, but reports to the operations manager.

My 2nd job title also has a Manager in it.
I haven't gotten to any managerial position before.

Please you guys should help me analyze this NOC issue

ladymarshall:
No you are not. Your actual NOC is 0124. Your title and JD are managerial positions.

NOC 1123 are for non-managerial positions in Corporate Comms (look below the NOC on the site, managerial positions are clearly excluded from the NOC).

What stage are you in your app? If its AOR, please raise a CSE asap and attach an LOE stating your mistake. If you are post-ITA but not AOR, I think an LOE would suffice. If you are pre-EE profile, perfect, good that you asked.

Thank you very much. Although I wasnt working as a Manager at the time. I was reporting drirectly to the Sales & Marketing Manager.

When I went through the JD for 0124, it stated that only Managers like, Sales Managers, Marketing Managers fit this NOC, that was why I didn't pick it.


Please can others shed more light on this?
I'm Pre-ITA.

Please, with respect to choice of NOC, let me just share my duties so you guys can share more insights. Though I've settled for NOC 1123

Title: Marketing Communications Manager

Second Job title is Social Media Manager, same NOC 1123

Am I on the right path please?

@newmum0915 @ifeoma77 @joo2018

What goes up most surely come down.

Topsmamen:
How far with your profile? Successfully created it?

No oh
I wanted to try with 8777, but someone here said he/she successfully created a profile with 7.5 in Listening. So I dont really know.
Well, I've decided to chill till when I rewrite IELTS.

Modified:
I just calculated my eligibility points. It's 64, which is lower than the recommended 67. With a better IELTS score, it would improve. So, I'd be preparing towards that.

Many thanks!

Congrats to everyone who just got PPR. May God continue to crown all your efforts to success.

vcole:
Congrats @Tojued! In my mind you were already in Canada oh!
Congrats @bukzie, what a ride!

@55emem55, check the answers you filled in your questionnaire. Specifically the question “how many years do you have in any of these professions” that comes after they mention and list out the trades occupations. If you filled any answer in that column, the system would assume that you should be in the federal skilled trades category and not FSW, hence rendering your profile ineligible.

I filled 'none' in that category.
When creating my profile, there's this alphanumeric number at the top right of my eca that Ices asked me to use in my application, that's what I used and not the client number. I hope that's correct

Topsmamen:
The problem is your listening in IELTS. You got a score of 7.5. You need at least an 8.

Wow. Okay I'd just chill till I retake the IELTS exam.
Thank you for your time!

Ifeoma77:
Double-check that the hours is 45/week and not 45/month

Yes, its 45/week
I just tried to create another profile.
Is it normal that before I can create an EE profile on the CIC page, I'm requested to first fill the questionaire to know if I'm eligible? Plus even after filling the questionnaire, I still get the ineligible message.

I'm confused.
I just want to create a profile to avoid the tie breaking rule.

I have my IELTS, ECA and NOC is 1123.

uche13:
@ 55emem55,

check your NOC. i received same message until @ifeoma77 mentioned that to me. cheers

Okay thanks a lot.
My NOC is 1123
I'm a Social Media Expert.
And the duties outlined on the CIC site, correlates with what I do

Please what else could be the issue?
Do I have to create a profile afresh?
@ifeoma77 please your opinion would be helpful.

Topsmamen:
What changes did you just make in your profile?

After the ineligible message, I have not made any changes. I just created a profile now.

55emem55:
Yes, ECA in the bag.
Thanks a lot for your time.

Modified:
I just got an ineligible message.
Why?
My ielts is LRWS 7.5, 6.5, 7.5, 7.5
POF 12,800
Work experience 3yrs, and 45hrs/week.

Edakun oh, what am I doing wrong?

Topsmamen:
For sure, you can submit now and update later with your new IELTS score. All the best.

Have you done your ECA?

Yes, ECA in the bag.
Thanks a lot for your time.

Topsmamen:
Profile submission.

Thank you.
So, if I submit my profile now can I edit it later when I rewrite IELTS and get a better score?

Guys, so to understand better what date is being used for the tie-breaking rule. Is it the date of profile creation or date of profile submission?

Princessfad:
Good evening everyone,
I have a certain concern, I'm seeing on ICES website that we need to submit out secondary school certificate,did this just start? Or I'm not understanding properly? I chose ICES because of this WAEC scratch card issue. Please can anyone help clarify.

ICES doesn't require WAEC please.
Check the Post-secondary requirements on their website. It's very clear and understandable.

The fact that its showing complete doesn't mean its been dispatched.
If she/he didn't pay the 75CAD for delivery, it won't be sent.

@ceyrahtlk kindly send an email to ices and ask them how you can make the payment for courier.

DonTee07:
if its showing completed, they already dispatched your copies. How did you pay initially? or you want to request additional copies? If you didn't pay for the courier option before or you want more copies, the latter amount you stated is what you will pay.

All the best.

Wow. Joined this thread in part 4.
Got my ECA in part 6
Now we are in part 7.
The race is not for the swift...pray for grace my people!!!

Ologunsunny:
I will like to have the reference letter sample as well ologundep@gmail.com

Ehen, before you know it now they'd start clogging this thread with email addresses.

PLEASE visit page 1. Everything you need is there.
Sample of reference letter, sample of gift deed, etc.

My dear, I don't know oh. Right now, Nigeria is just turnioniown. Please call the body you registered with to get more info.

Wishing you success in your exams.

larrypha:
We that have ielts on the new date (23rd Feb) nko? Do you think it will be postponed?

AMEN.
But until then, I'd be wishing them well from my condo in Canada.

Trueigbo:
Nigeria will be great again by God's grace

Election that they've postponed.
Can't wait to zap out of this shithole of a country.
I'm tired!

didentus678:
Happy voting everyone! This would be the very last election for us in Nigeria in the mighty name of Jesus Christ,Amen!!!!!!!

Yes they did. Without that reply, my ECA was on hold.
They replied on Monday, ECA was completed today.

pyruvateluv:
Did your school reply them? Congratulations and success in IELTS

Nothing difficult. Just ensure your school is proactive in sending the transcript via mail and responding to queries from ICES if it arises.

You can learn more from their website and read page 1.

AdetonaDami:
Pls I am planning to use ICES for my ECA
Is there anything I should know concerning the process...I wouldnt mind enlightening me more...

Congrats in advance.

EyesondPrize:
So after a very long wait from MOD on the outcome of my EOR, I finally got a mail to come pick up. I Know I got an upgrade because It was stated in the mail I will get a refund in 10 working days but I need 7 to scale through.

Fingers crossed.
