Yes, you are right.
Getting a job offer when you are outside Canada is the problem. It's easier for inland applicants.

azpekuliar:
E be like say na job offer be the problem

Best advise is to evaluate both diploma and degree. Otherwise, how do you prove to the evaluation body your 100 level courses? Law degree in Nigeria is 5 years and 4 years through Direct entry.

luxis:
Hello everyone, Please I need assistance with this.
I did diploma in law then gained direct entry admission into Law. Do I need to also evaluate my diploma in law with my bachelor in law degree with CES or just my bachelor in law degree would suffice. Thank you.

Congratulations! May the land favour you.

Landing Gist

I arrived in Australia on Monday evening Aussie time .. I was so happy and excited ..

We left home for the airport at 4am on Sunday ... My flight was by 8 am so we had to leave early..

When we arrived at MMIA, the airport was not filled and we quickly did our check-in.. then we went back to take pics with family..

It was an emotional moment but I wasn't moved. ... I'm a man of violence... So we boarded the plane which was Qatar airways ... Quickly said my goodbye wishes to my friends on whatsapp before network lost... A lot of people were surprised tho.. and I expected that...

At that point in the plane, I was heavily anxious... I didn't know what to expect.. I've never been on a plane nor have I been in a large association of foreigners .. when the plane started to move,my anxiety rose and I became very paranoid praying that this plane doesn't crash ...

Well ,take off was smooth sha... Then they served food.. God!!! This was the worst food I've ever eaten in my life.. no taste at all.. I'm pretty sure that the food I cooked in ekosodin was 59x better than that shit ... I nearly cried because I was hungry and I told my parents before leaving that it's best I eat now than relying on airplane food .

The only thing I enjoyed was the apple juice.. the rest were below the bar... Then I watch some films like Encanto and Fatherhood... Later, I slept off sha because I didn't sleep the past night due to anxiety of the flight..

Soon, we arrived at Doha... Guy.. Doha is so beautiful sha.. Nigeria is such a complete mess sha.. .. we walked from where we came down from airport to where we'll wait to board the next plane. ..

It was a long walk sha... I jokingly told my cousin that this was our long walk to freedom .. There we waited at the airport till it was time to board..

we boarded the second flight. This one was a bit bigger.. but with little leg space... And it was for 13 hrs

I was in a tight position throughout.. I couldn't even manage myself ... Then they served us food which was a little bit better sha... I rewatched Harry Potter again sha but I didn't finish it because of sleep sha..

When we touched down Sydney, I was so happy.. I had finally touchdown the city that I had so dreamer of.. I was finally here

My happiness knew no bounds... immigration was quick and then we went to get our baggages.. a little bit stressful but we crossed that hurdle

My family members came to pick us and we took pictures to send home... Then my cousin drove me to some of my other family members place where we ate and talked... Later on we moved to another of my family's place where we are to stay temporarily..

I had to find time to write this sha.. I've just been sleeping and watching Netflix.... I've never seen this kain enjoyment before ..

Today I did my Medicare stuff, opened a new bank account and got a new Sim...

Thanks for your response

Rwanda is one of the best African countries to live in at the moment, its clean peaceful and has good governance with loads of infrastructure. You will be amazed at the number of foreigners living there.[/quote]

If it is the professional diploma, it will be evaluated as 3 years bachelor's degree.

I started this journey in 2013 before express entry when we use to send paper mail through accra. 2015 express entry started and i was devastated. started gathering documents and fund. funds no gree complete but I didn't give up. In 2018 money was almost complete, wrote IELTS LSWR 8877 one sitting, hubby did the same and did WES. no MSC for me but hubby had MSC but he was above 40 so i had to do principal applicant. Applied in september 2019, 14days after application , nomination came. got approved nomination in december 6 2019. got ITA in december 14, 2019. i rolled on the floor that day in public.
persistency is key. dont give up. put all your trust in God.
This group gave me the ultimate guide all through. I give God all the glory

BoldassBadasser:
thanks for your input sir!
now how and where do I start with Canada sir?

please sir can I get your email for further assistance sir?

You can get a professional diploma in HRM if you go through examination route. As a B.sc holder, you are expected to take Intermediate 2, PE-1 and PE-2 to qualify for the certificate. The duration is 3 diet (18 months program). WES evaluate it as equivalent to 3 years canadian bachelors degree

serA25:
Please who can explain more on CIPM

Sure he can. Just give him your WES account details
so that your payment can reflect in your profile

Shespeaks:
Hello house please, can my cousin who lives in Canada help me make my WES payment with his credit card? Has anyone experienced this? Please help, it's urgent!

Have you done your ECA and IELTS? these are the credentials you need to create an account with ircc. Please, ensure you are on the correct site.
I hope you have read this thread from page 1 so you understand the process well.
Regards.

UmmuYusroh:
No, I mean I just sign up to the Canada site, to have an account for the application.

Which site did you create an account? Are you referring to credentials evaluation body? If yes, you have to make payment to generate reference number for all your correspondence with them.

UmmuYusroh:
Thanks for referring me here. It seems I will be asking lot of questions because I don't want to make any mistake in my application. Have created an account in their site and have chosen the program that am interested in. After this, is it payment that I have to make or what is the next procedure?

For Aipp, see the thread..

For express entry, see the thread
https://www.nairaland.com/5471101/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled

UmmuYusroh:
Thank you for this. Is there a link on nairaland on details on AIPP application.

Also to get started, what are the things to have in standby and important fees to pay first after creating an account on the website.

You didn't name the school in question.
However, WES is not the only evaluation body in Canada. You may check with other bodies like ICES, ICAS, IQAS and CES and make your choice.

Theonlywan:
Hello everyone, i have 3 years experience as a Customer Support executive in Nigeria and wanna opt in for this program. I contacted wes and was told my intuition isn't recognized for my Bsc. That means i only have to evaluate my o level results but i don't know what chance i stand knowing that the least requirement if education is high school. Sigh

If you are using WES, evaluate both ND and HND. It will cost you the same amount- CAD$220

SpicyMimi:
How much did you do the overall evaluation please?

I want to evaluate ND and HND? Am I paying one fee for both or separately and how much?

Thank you.

Only the primary applicant needs to evaluate his/her credentials. However, evaluating your spouse credentials may become useful should there be need to switch the primary applicant .

SpicyMimi:
Do I need to evaluate my spouse's credentials on WES or I the applicant alone?

There is no functional whatsapp group.
Let's help ourselves with relevant informations on this forum rather than promoting whatsapp group please.

Luckybelt:
Is there really a WhatsApp group on this discussion because nobody seems to be answering or joining us. How can I reach OP for a one on one consultation?

Yes you can evaluate it and have two or more certificate. Just reach out to the evaluation body you used for your Bsc and request to add additional certificate. it will attract extra cost though.

Diane92:
Hi guys
Please guys I really need help with this, I just got my PGD result, my question is can I evaluate it in order to get additional points as I have evaluated my BSC last year.
Please l really need an answer to this
Thank you all

It's very possible for your transcript to be rejected on the ground that the school location is different from where the parcel was posted. Sometimes, they consider the location, which must be close to your school.

My honest advice? Ensure it's posted from Ife or nearest city/town and not far away Lagos.

[author=Ebuncrown post=86304957]Good morning everyone and happy Sunday. Please I need some sort of advice.

I have been processing my transcript in OAU via etx since 2018 even before I bought the canny vision all to no avail. Over 30k gone down the drain.

Long story short I was introduced to someone in transcript office who has helped so far. I paid for courier service to send to CES as well extra PR for his own work since October 2019 and up till now My transcript has still not been sent.

I gave him a piece of my mind last night and woke up to his text now saying he wants to sent the transcript to me in Lagos and I’d send to Canada myself if I don’t mind the extra cost again. I don’t mind o but the questions are

Should I accept to do that cos I have been waiting for IFe to send it for the past 4months all to no avail.

If I accept should I send it from Lagos or travel to Ife to use DHL on campus to send it?

What if CES decides to verify and they discover I sent it myself though in the official envelope and seal, would it create any problems for me?

Since the school wants to frustrate my efforts, should I go ahead and send it by myself?

Thank you guys.[/quote]

Go to SO Petrol station at Rumuodara along East/West road before Omega House if you are coming from Eliozu. Notary Public firm is there.

Please do you know where one can notatize a document in port harcourt?

Congratulations on the positive step so far. This journey indeed requires alot of patience. Please, keep us updated as you progress as that will energize so many of us to keep moving until we all succeed.

Canadachick:
Thanks.

So I started the journey in 2016 with the hope of migrating through the Express Entry. I evaluated my credentials with IQAS and sat for IELTS in 2016. I could not make the cut-off. I was 33 years with just a kid then. The AIPP program just was introduced then. I became interested in using that route, however, the hurdle of getting an employer was very high to climb. Fast word to 2019, still in the process but my IELTS has expired, I started applying widely to employers who were designated in the 4 provinces in the Atlantic. It was tedious but at last, an employer from NB came to the rescue.

After 2 rounds of online interviews after assessing my CV, they decided to sponsor my application. Since they were designated, it was quite easy for them. I got the offer in September 2019 and had to rewrite the IELTS in October since the previous one was expired. Submitted to them when the result came out ( I had a band of 7.5). My ECA was still valid. So presently waiting for endorsement. Sector- Marketing

Simple google search would have answered this your question.

However, let me give you the response you seek. AIPP is employment driven. You need a job offer from canadian employer from any of the 4 atlantic provinces--New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland & Labrador. Once you get an offer, your employer will sponsor your PR application. The requirement is mild compared to express entry. e.g, low IELTS score, low Proof of fund and age requirement. But you must live in the province that nominate you for the first 3 years. For details, check (https://www.nairaland.com/5273969/re-immigrate-canada-through-aipp)

Conversely, Express entry is point based system with CRS score and high proof of fund. And you are free to live anywhere in Canada once you receive your PR. This thread where you asked your question has all the information you seek for express entry.

Hope that helps.

smartkester:
Aww!! So no one can help me out with the difference between AIPP and express entry??

Please, anyone who has a rigid knowledge of the both programs should help clarify a brother na.

Congratulations brother. I remember your moniker very well when you announced your IELTS break through in part 5. Infact, the whole thread was elated, as everyone kept asking for IELTS tips from you.
May canada favour you and your family!

Honestly, I don't understand this WhatsApp group thing.
Everyone kept dropping numbers. What is the use of this thread? Is it not to share information and help ourselves?
This should stop please.

DAramis:
maybe, na to close the thread since everyone is migrating to whatsapp group.

Contact your school to reply the mail. If you have someone in your school to monitor the response for you, better.

Mosesmik:
Good day guys i am evaluating my ECA through WES, WES sent a mail to me that they have sent an email to my school for verification since oct 15th my status have nt change pls guys wht should i do at this point. AIPP

Good you have done it again.
However, the score is not enough for EE, but can go for PNP. Just enter the pool once you have your ECA and IELTS. You might get picked for PNP by any of the provinces.

GreatManBee:
Thanks I have done the eligibility test again and my score is 423. Is this enough for the EE application?

You can't have 240 with your Ms.c and 8 years experience. There must be something you didn't do right. Did you include your language test result?
Go back and redo.

GreatManBee:
I have used an eligibility simulator but my score is 240.
Age - 36
Degree - BSc and MSc Computer Science
Work experience 8 years
Can I still be eligible?

@Haysamo, Sorry I included RNIP in my response. RNIP is employment driven just like AIPP

quote author=Haysamo post=83660846]

Is RNIP a point based program??[/quote]

You can start the process at anytime and if she gives birth along the line, you can always notify IRCC and add your baby to your application.

damble:
SHOULD I ALLOW MY WIFE TO GIVE BIRTH OF HER PREGNANCY BEFORE I START THE PROCESS SO DAT THE BABY CAN BE INCLUDED?

As the primary applicant, you need both ECA and IELTS for this journey.
Your wife may write IELTS and have her ECA done if you are going through point based route like Express entry, PNP or RNIP as her points will increase your total score.

damble:
SORRY FOR BUGGING U WITH QUESTIONS. CAN I DO ECA WHILE MY WIFE DOES IELTS TO BETTER SCORE?
