Congratulations @Eklektoss, @Emerson500 and @upgrade.

Kudos to IRCC for making all our 'Friends' realize that they are actually younger than they presently are.

NikyO:
Good evening house, a friend of mine did ECA with MCC and it’s ready. His passport is expired and want to reduce his age in the new one cos he has been using a wrong age since secondary sch, he sent email to MCC informing them this disparity that will occur in the passport and also stated reasons and they replied no qualms and how he ll go about it et all , my question is if he enters the pool will this new age hope it won’t raise an eyebrow of the CIC ppl ?

I will advise you to read carefully from Page 0 especially the section on proof of funds. You can't just ask your friends to send you money. You can get banned for misrepresentation. Please to avoid stories that touch.

MeemLowlah:
Hello all!

I just joined this forum and i have a slight issue. i have 60 days before my application expires. all other documents are complete except for medicals and Proof of funds.
do i need to print a bank statement or can i just request a letter from the bank stating my average bank balance and also stating my current bank balance. is there also any other way that i can show proof of funds. i don't even have the money yet. i was just planning to get my friends to send me money and then i just print my bank balance.

thanks.

As in eh mine is 9weeks today. I was even at BC today, still no show

Olha:
Hi, i notice that people are no more talking about EOR anymore, what is wrong?

Nooo please don't. ICAS takes a minimum of 20weeks from the day they receive all your documents. It's there on the website and there ain't any Express application. Or maybe you mean ICES. Do yourself a favor and stick with WES. Someone here mentioned that she wrote to WES to proceed with her evaluation without the 1st year results and it still came out positive. So you can evaluate your OND with IQAS or ICES and the BSc with WES. But stay clear of ICAS that's my advice.

prost80:



Thank you very much. We have decided to go with another ECA...ICAS as IQAS takes too long. Anybody have any feedback from ICAS ?my wife has a Diploma which you use to gain direct entry to 200level for a B.Sc in Computer Science

Please can you share your experience so as to help others in future

Being following this thread since April last year and am glad to announce that ITA arrived like a thief in the night yesterday. I did medicals at prime medical consultants in PH yesterday in anticipation of Wednesday draw but IRCC had other plans.
Although my experience at prime medicals was not the best waking up to getting ITA has rejuvenated me.

That is not correct a lot of people never even see their original report. Many applicants used only the softcopy and have gotten their COPRs.

JonJon2017:
.

Hi, thanx for ur input on this. But I read somewhere on this thread that I need to upload a scanned copy of the original ECA report post ITA. Please, is that correct?

Your first Report was perfectly fine and would've sufficed for the EE process as you only needed to evaluate your highest degree (MSc). But i wouldn't say the upgraded report is a waste as it may come in handy for employment or educational purposes when you finally arrive Canada. So no need to panic. You can make use of anyone.

N.B: You don't need the hardcopy before you can create or submit your profile the softcopy will do just fine.

JonJon2017:
Dear All,

Please advice...
Thanks alot.

You have to contact the school to find out if you are to pay. Some schools charge for verification while some don't.

sipsip:
Good morning everyone. Lovely and insightful thread here. Please I have an issue with WES. My school sent my transcript to them and I've Enterprise my certificate. I got a message some two weeks ago saying copies of NY transcript and certificate has been sent to my school for a written verification and I don't need to do anything, but knowing Nigeria, I don't know. My school hasn't responded to them as I can see on the status. What do I do please? Who else has been on this?

Did you send your hard copy to a Canadian Address? If yes, you have your answer.

bolarinnwa:
Hello everyone,
I tried asking for refund of my eca I did with Wes and the response is go to a particular website. Please is there a particular format apart from the ones that has been mentioned on the thread? Please can someone kindly drop a format he/she used and got the refund. I know the money is small but every penny counts. Find attached a screenshot of the message received

You are to send your certificate yourself. Use hellofax.com to send a scanned clear copy of your certificate (preferably coloured). It's completely free.

dapreal:
hello house, after applying for my wes evaluation through my university i waited a month then i was sent a mail from wes that my trancript has been sent to them but they have not yet recieved my degree certificate... going back to my university they said nothing can be done ,Please house how do i get my degree certificate across to wes

Wow sorry about that and yes i do have people you can call. Send me a pm I will advise you on what to do and provide you with the necessary phone numbers.

Otydallas123:
Please do you have any contact I can call?

UNN hasn't sent my wife's transcript since April 28th after we made the payment.

And we can't travel to Enugu due to our schedules in Lagos.

Sorry you didn't need to verify the Certificate. Verifying only the transcript would've sufficed. Paid only 10k each for myself and wifey and we both have our ECAs.

Bubuyaya2015:

UNN
Paid 35k to send transcript
Paid 20k to verify certificate and the same transcript they sent. I was amazed. I went there myself with my dad. I had to make calls first before paying cos I didn't believe it. But my friends confirmed and I was given a receipt.

Good Morning, Please how much did you spend in total? I'm based in PH

Threemg:


Ma'am why waste such money? I'm not in Lagos also but I trusted Inspector M to do it for me from Niger Delta where I'm based and he didn't let me down. FedEx sealed the deal. All the best

I'm sorry but are you sure she's telling you the truth? I ask because most ECA bodies will use the DOB on the identification document you provided (i.e. International passport or National ID) while WES will use the DOB on your Transcripts. As for IELTS, they will most likely use the DOB on your International passport so I don't see how the error could have come from her 'Uncle'.

efueh:
My People my people!
A family friend I told about EE same time I got to know about EE in April, just got off the phone now, asking me the date of birth CIC uses.
She is done with her ECA and IELTS, with her CRS standing at 450. The problem she has now is that her age in her ECA & IELTS report is different from her real age that is in her passport. The age used by her uncle to create ECA/IELTS account was 3yrs over her real age. If she uses this wrong age captured in both her ECA/IELTS report, her CRS will drop by 15points to 435, which is not comfortable with.
So she is asking me on what to do and how best to address this challenges, before she enters the pool, as she doesn't want anything that will make her case to be that of "misrepresentation".

Can she write to both ECA body and IELTS body she used to correct her date of birth with proof and also ask them to reissue the reports when they oblige?
Or she should go with the option of preparing her LOE on where the mix up came from, get affidavit, birth certificate and enter the pool and hope for the best with prayers?
I need experience opinions as she is so so worried.

I think you can as long as they can generate transcripts with your grades

MsLane:
Hello All,
Who knows if i can evaluate my Professional Certificate from CIM UK to improve it to 2 degrees in combination with my Bsc?
Its just a professional certificate but takes a year to complete.

If I were in your shoes I would replace it with an LOE stating again that the degree was by correspondence and that you never resided in the UK during your studies. You may also attach any other evidence indicating that it was a distance/online program.

Newbeecey:
Yeah, i tried this later but the placeholder pop-up for UK still remained there, I even uploaded my naij PCC there in error and cant seem to remove it as I am required to replace it with another document. Dont know what I will do about that yet

Congrats!!!

Hello Nairalanders, please has anyone successfully evaluated National Institute of Management (Chartered) Certificate. Your answers will much appreciated. Thanks

He's trying to pay for WES

Elfmannisback:

Make that guy go do draft. Make him no go pay give someone else oh.

GT Card works just make sure you input the exact address you have registered on your account. If you're not sure, try accessing your account statement through online banking your address should be there.

adeptonlin:
I've been trying to pay online for WES fee using GTBank naira MasterCard and it's not going through. Someone to please suggest the bank to use and method. Regards

They have already updated their website. This is good news. Sorry for the unchanged result.

kriyobt:
I applied for EOR with BC, and received my result without an upgrade after 9 days (7 working days). I doubted it considering the duration, so I sent a mail to them and got the response in the attachment below. I can also confirmed that I have met 4 persons whose EOR was completed in less than 2 weeks. As stated the EOR processing time will be updated.

It's fine you don't have to be worried. It just means that they've received your verification and it's under review. Probably later today or Monday your profile should be updated and a date of completion given.

ceechedah:
Hi guys

I don't no if anyone has experienced this, last two weeks my WES evaluation page changed from "we have received your documents, you are required to do nothing at this time" to "received document awaiting verification". This week, it changed back to "we have received documents, you are required to do anything at this time". It didn't show that they have accepted my documents before changing back (the attached is not mine, I just attached it to show the change from the verification page and back to the initial page). I don't know if anyone experienced this, please assist to explain. Thanks

Whoever advised you to use ICAS has done you a great disservice. It is clearly stated on their website that processing times for Canada immigration Assessment is 20weeks (which is not a guarantee) from the day they receive all the required documents. So you just have to be patient. You can check here to read up yourself.

Jennypharb1:
Please who else is using ICAS for ECA? I am evaluating my masters certificate and they received my documents since April 6th yet my status is still in queue for assessment.

Is it advisable to get into the pool while waiting for ECA because I got an email from them that they are currently attending to applicants from February

Yes they do

Olha:
Please, does WES need certificate/statement of result before they send verification mail to higher institution??
This has been on my profile for about two weeks now.

''We received your document(s). We are reviewing your document(s).
Status last updated: 5/24/2018''

I wouldn't advice that if I were you. I don't know if it has been mentioned here before but I know for a fact that sometimes the result you see online may be different from what is in your TRF. It happened with a friend the good thing is that in her case the outcome was a positive one. So please go and collect your TRF.

NB: This happened in MOD Abuja

nuelful:
Is there anyone here that wrote his/her IELTS test on 12th May 2018 with MOD in Nigeria, please what is the test result release date written on your TRF. I need it because I want to complete my express entry profile so I might get ITA on Wednesday. I am yet to receive my own TRF.
Also If you took your test on any other date with IDP and you have received your trf and you didn't take the test in the Asia pacific region, could you also share the date of test result written on your trf . From that I would be able to correctly predict the date of test result that would be on my trf.
Thank you

As long as you opened your WES account with your married name then you don't have anything to worry about. However, please note that they will mention the difference in names in your credentials and your WES account. This is what you will see "The names on one or more of the academic credentials submitted for evaluation differ from the name indicated above".

MummyO24:
Please I have gone through this thread and previous ones and didnt see the answer to my question.

The BSc certificate I sent to WES bears my maiden name, this will be same for my transcript, all other documents I have are in my married name, please how do i make them give my result in my married name?

Thanks a lot for the support here.

That's Kilimanjaro not Genesis.
