Congrats Oga @40manlappy, everyone knows you are a correct person (thanks for your help and attitude). I'm definitely next in line *sends spiritual bombs to WES, hurryup.*

40manlappy:
Finally, ITA arrived for my wife!

Just when we were gradually accepting the reality of waiting for the next draw, God showed us His favour. For a journey that started with our first IELTS in December 2014, we give Him all the glory.

Thanks to this wonderful e-family for the encouragement, kind words and support. May God grant all your wholesome hearts' desires in Jesus' name, Amen!

Like Bimpsy99 stated earlier, still feels like a dream...

NLders do not call this person(s). They are scammers and will not credit you. Buy from certified or recommended re-sellers only. You have been warned. His partner in crime uses other numbers eg 09066474484 and claim to be based in Abuja

Hey people, Apparently WES decided to verify my BSc degree by INTERNATIONAL EXPRESS MAIL despite my request to withdraw the evaluation. Is that where the BILL 96.05 dollars came from (i had previously paid the 233.91 dollars)? I guess i have no option but to PAY? Not very convenient

Yes You can send a statement of result, be sure you have a contact in the school for verification purposes (assuming he schooled in Nigeria)

lacord5:
Please could someone reply me urgently.

My husband's degree certificate is not available yet from his school, can we send Statement of result and transcript to WES or IQAS for evaluation? Does anyone know if they accept Statement of result in lieu of Degree certificate?

Kindly CAREFULLY re-read the first pages of the thread again, it still remains relevant on the first steps you need to take. You can start with this (filling in your educational background and proposed language test scores)...then re-read the first pages again!

Good afternoon everyone, I have been trying through express entry without full understanding on what to do until a friend recommended i check this trend. I have learnt alot from all of you. My question is how do i start this journey with my BSc in business administration age 32yrs

Turn around time, IQAS is faster than WES as witnessed by several people in the house

Farefare:
Hello house,
Kindly advice : WES or IQAS; Am quite confused.need to make a decision today and pay the fees.

Many thxxx

I believe so, according to a few people that have sent attestation letters and have since completed ECA. I've just recently sent a letter of attestation to WES, waiting for the change in status

Alekhine:
Good Evening. I will like to ask if it is possible to do WES certificate assessment with Statement of result instead of School certificate cause i have not collected my certificate from my University.
Thanks.

Hi @40manlappy

Can i PM you and get that 'contact' too Sir? I don't know why things are so difficult with most Nigerian Universities. I have to get my transcripts and "letter in lieu" asap so my ECA can be completed. Thank You.

Also, i listed my MSc. and BEng. degrees to be assessed by WES because I wasn't sure about getting UNILAG's MSc certificate. I already faxed by BSc certificate to WES and my status has changed to awaiting BSc school/institution's verification and awaiting MSc Certificate AND transcript (I'm not sure UNAAB will not ordinarily respond to WES without me approaching them).
Can i send a letter/mail to WES asking them to disregard the BSc evaluation as i can't afford sending transcripts from UNAAB (BSc) and UNILAG(MSc) presently. Besides MSc will give better points than BSc. Thanks.

40manlappy:
Sorry I missed this earlier.

Please send me a PM. Will give you the contact that my wife used to follow-up.

@esosa4real this is a prayer from the gods o... @jodegua , read slowly BUT surely from page one of the thread, its not that hard

Bros/Madam, You will not make Heaven

Lol... i remember all too well. Though i did not prepare adequately for the exams, but your confidence that my scores would be upgraded (without knowing me from ADAM) spurred me to ask for a remark @vcole. Hell if i regret not asking for an EOR for my wife too. I clearly believe that BC purposely limits some scores so people can resit the exams....68k

vcole:
Remember when I was arguing with you that listening and reading can get upgraded especially for this bc naija.

Hello House,

I would like to thank @vcole @dupyshoo and other members that offered advice especially concerning my IELTS test i took on 29th October 2016. After EOR which took exactly 10 weeks, my scores increased by a band.

Former Scores: LRWS- 7.5,7.5,7.5,8
After EOR: LRWS- 8.5,7.5,7.5,8

Here's my issue, my name was not included among the convocation list, so i can't get my Masters certificate OFFICIALLY till next year January (so annoying cos i fulfilled all graduating conditions well before the list was drawn). They promised me a letter "in lieu of" which i don't think will suffice for ECA.

This sets my score at 426 (instead of 465) without the Masters (i'll be 31 years in 2 weeks, married with over 7 years experience). Should i go ahead with the ECA with my B.Eng. OR/AND try for a PNP?

Wifey's IELTS scores were lower, going to clock 30 in April, doesn't have a Masters degree/2 certificates either, so i guess she's not a better PA.

Thanks in anticipation everyone.

Hi @lumzy, did you get a mail from them or you went directly to their office to check? My EOR request is just 8 weeks now, i'm wondering if it might be ready besides there is no platform for checking processed EOR on their website.

@House, is there any possibility of WES accepting a "in lieu of" document in place of certificate? Unfortunately i might not be able to get my MSc certificate from the school due to lapses on their part which will cost me a lot of points.

lumzy1:
Hello Peeps,
Finally got my IELTS EOR yesterday after over 12 weeks, my result was upgraded from LRWS 87.576.5 to 87.577. I updated my express entry profile, but I didn't see any improvement with my score, is this normal?
Also, are we to notarize all the scanned documents to be uploaded when submitting ITA.

Try and Link Up with an uber car owner, Sir.

Oocc:
I am a BSc holder with a second class upper. I don't have a job. My last job as a driver, came with a salary of about 30k. I worked hard and happily too, tho I lost it. Back to joblessness.

80k salary for OND qualification is very fantastic! Your friend is very lucky and favoured by God. He should grab it fast.

#I hope I'm not offending God, but I think he has favourites!

God bless you @dupyshoo , @vcole and @Adiahabasi .
I'll try the EOR for now (while preparing for another IELTS exams) and get my wife's ECA ready(She also has a diploma for a partially completed Uk online Masters degree, but i guess it is equivalent to her Bachelors). I'm through with the Masters programme, just waiting for the official certificate/transcript in January.
Thank you all for your dedication to this thread. Knowledge is truly LIGHT!

Adiahabasi:
If she rewrites she'll only get 2-3marks extra,so not necessary.

We both have over 6 years work experience individually. I'll attempt the IELTS exam one more time, and ace it too. I infer that she does not need to re-attempt the IELTS (she's already demotivated anyway)
Thanks a lot @dupyshoo.

dupyshoo:
You did not provide any information about the no of years of experience you both have.

I will however base my advice on the assumption that you have over 3 years of work experience.

As you are almost done with MSc., you will get higher CRS score with you as the principal applicant.

Therefore, I will suggest you wait till your MSc. is concluded before arranging for your ECA. While waiting for MSc., you should rewrite IELTS and target 8.5, 8, 7.5 and 7.5 in LRSW.

Your wife will also have to do her ECA, if she is yet to do it.

If you ace your IELTS, evaluate your MSc, get your wife's ECA done and have 3 year work experience under NOC 0, A or B, your CRS score will be about 470ish which is good.

Hello All, though i've read through the previous posts, I'm sorry i still have to post this here to get the candid advice of already/near successful applicants for the FSW programme.

Did the IELTS exam 29th October - Results (browsed online) are
(ME) L-7.5 R-7.5 S-8 W-7.5 {i will be 31yrs by Feb 2017, B.Eng (Civil Engr), will get my MSc Construction Mgmt (UNILAG) certificate by Jan 2017}

[b](WIFEY)[/b]L-7.5 R-7.5 S-7 W-6.5 She will be 30yrs by April 2017, BSc (Biochemistry)

We have a 1 year son (that would mean we need about $18500 POF).
What options do you think are feasible now, considering
-No foreign educations to boost score (considering the new rules)
-No job offer
-No PNP yet
-Credentials have not been assessed (i'm wondering if i should wait for Jan to get my MSc Cert before submitting for ECA)
- i seriously believe that our IELTS results should be better.

A sponsor of mine was suggesting we use an agent (based in SA) which i'm partially against because they only seem to offer what proper individual research can do.

Thanks for your time.

Festywum:
Hmm that sounds ironic, pls any info, kindly illuminate better. Thanks

Sorry for the delay.
first encounter: job fair
second encounter: scarlet lounge hotel, VI (INTERVIEW with ExPat Man) He changed my job role from TelcoEngr to Civil Engr (said im more suited for the CE role)
yesterday's encounter: IHS building, Idejo (2 Nigerians conducted another interview for role of SAQ Coordinator, though i informed front desk of my earlier interviews)

You really don't know what to expect!
Candid Advice: Just know everything you say you know well (i got tested asides SAQ questions on my skill level for Microsoft Excel)

Another day, another role offer, more suspense!

Wonder what 'Dangote' needs your passport number and voters ID for?
