Nairalanders, been helping others since 1805, why is no one responding nah? Any implications? Did u put any association in urs? No fall

Kontagious:
Yooku's point is valid, you get a 12 points addition with the increased band regardless if you're married or not though max for married applicant stays at 128 point.

Difference between LRSW of 8777 and 8.5,8,7.5,7.5 is 12 point regardless of your marital status.

@ Yooku, 8777 is usually encouraged as anything short of that technically renders the result useless, even by 0.5 in just one component takes off 50 - 60 points.

Yooku:
I had wanted to make a post concerning the maximum points obtainable from IELTS for language skills. We mostly recommend for people to get a minimum 8777 in the LRWS. I was playing with the CRS tool for a friend and the results seem to support this 8777 asa being the safe threshold for English skills above 124 with maximum being 136. To start off, the CRS does not give absolute scores for some of the sections so in trying to get as close to 8777 the below is what results. That might contribute for a little difference in the expected results.


Listening - 8.0
Reading - 7.0 - 7.5
Speaking - 7.0
Writing - 7.0

This above combination gives 124 points for English Language skills which is not the maximum points obtainable

When your Listening is bumped up to 8.5 - 9.0 as below, you get 127 points....still not the max points available

Listening - 8.5 - 9.0
Reading - 7.0 - 7.5
Speaking - 7.0
Writing - 7.0

From the minimum 8777 in LRWS as recommended here the points increase by about 3 points for every 0.5 increment in scores for each section. So you might want to analyze your test results to see if you can get some extra 3 or 6 points for the 0.5 increase to be obtained from going in for EOR or retaking the IELTS.

Max points of 136 is obtained from getting the below score ranges

Listening - 8.5 - 9.0
Reading - 8.0 - 9.0
Speaking - 7.5 - 9.0
Writing - 7.5 - 9.0

So in conclusion, to max out your 136 IELTS points any test taker should seek the below matrix at a minimum or better.

Listening - 8.5
Reading - 8.0
Speaking - 7.5
Writing - 7.5

Hi GoldenJem,
[b]
You cannot. CIC specifically stated degree certificate, [/b]read the question mark beside the files you are to upload before submitting to get the required documents.

Saintp:
I read on hellofax that it is only free for 5 pages. But if you are faxing all the required docs to IQAS, it exceeds 5 pages. For example the signed application document alone is 3 pages, then put degree certificate, checklist, ID and payment receipt shoots it up 7 pages. I'm confused , i don't know if there is something I'm not doing right.

nairacrusader:
A very good morning to you guys

i haven't been sleeping these days as I do not know how I and DH will go about this process. A brief history of what we have done so far....

1- We have both written IELTS...DH had 9, 8.5,8.5,8.5 while i had 7, 5.5,5.5,5.5 ( I intend to apply for a re-mark though)

2- Education.....DH has Bachelors degree, while I have both bachelors and Masters from the UK

3-Do we send only certificates or transcripts to WES? Either way everything is gonna be sent through our different universities

4- Employment- Hubby works for an oil company and has more than 5 years professional experience, while I have more than 3 years UK working experience but I came back to Nigeria in 2015, and i only just got a part-time job in an admin office in a local govt council here in Lagos.

5- Can we start our application process if DH is the principal applicant? Or do i need to write IELTS again for better points for us?

We intend applying this weekend....we dont want to make any errors whatsoever...please I will need you guys help....any advise would be welcomed...

I don't know why i am scared though....but i am.

God Bless you all and grants all your heart's desires.... Thank you again.

Hephgirl:
So I got confused at d attached.

But these other points I'm reading below got me lost... So glad it's not ielts

ebho:
No of Dependants 4. Wifey was the primary applicant (Medical Doctor). I (Lecturer). [b]We haven't travelled anywhere before. [/b]POF was a joint account. I believe POF is locked at the day of submission/AOR. But above all it was God that granted us Grace.
