I don't think BCS will increase my point when I already have Masters degree. I think all these exams are for someone with either Bsc or ND to upgrade to 2 or more certificates. Msc is already bigger than 2 or more certificates. No point registering for BCS or other diplomas. Am I making sense?

My e-family, please help me look into this. I want to be sure I'm saying the right thing or with my Masters, can I still enrol for BCS?

oluwareni:
One quick question please.

I have 2 more paper left for my ACCA qualification. Can I get any point on the back of this?

*fingers crossed*

ladymarshall:
I am overjoyed for you

Your script is amazing and funny. What am I marking? Without looking at the marking scheme, you score 10/10

Thank you for selfless service to this thread. We award you a special badge of honour.

Congrats again

Has anyone here used the regular post with no tracking to receive their ECA Report from WES Successfully? The cost difference is $7 (regular) and $85 (Courier with Tracking) is making me think it. Thanks

johnnybravo1990:
I beg to disagree. I don’t think that could be the reason for the person’s rejection. Clarify if the person imputed their ECA number correctly. There is a column somewhere in the application where we are to put down our ECA report number. Or are you saying the ECA number we wrote does not count? Please don’t give people unnecessary anxiety. I uploaded only degree certificate, and I am not going to panic, because the instruction for uploading document for education clearly said ‘degrees/diplomas’, and not ’degrees/diplomas + ECA certificate’. The ECA number we put should take care of the ECA. However you can also upload ECA certificate if you wish.

Chynwey:
Good day to every selfless member on this thread. I am post-AOR, currently. I came across this thread not too long ago and it has indeed been informative. God bless you all once again.
In the placeholder for education, I only uploaded my certificates without including my WES report form and IELTS TRF. But from the stories I have seen so far, every PPR clincher seemed to have included the reports. Is there likely to be a problem with my approach? Do I need to raise a CSE and attach the omitted forms?
Kindly advise a confused me.

This is a bit dicey. For PNP, there is an expectation of spending at least some time in the province that does the nomination first before you move to another province. There's no hard and fast law, but there is definitely an expectation.

If it is the regular Express Entry, I see no problem in going ahead with EE while on a study permit if you meet the necessary requirements. However, the person is going the PNP route while they are in school in a presumably different province. How will you convince the visa officer of intent to reside in the nominating province? Unless perhaps, the program of study is expected to be complete towards the end of the PNP processing time...

Maybe others should weigh in

ADR: none
VO: Ottawa
POF: Fixed deposit (from gift deed and deed of sale). Expired on the 1 March 2019


The decision to migrate was made in early 2017.

Evaluated my master degree with IQAS and hubby's ND/HND with WES.

We wrote IELTS 9 times (mine 8 and hubby 1)

I passed IELTS at the 5th attempt with LRSW - 9777

Unfortunately, this placed us at 439 and went for two more with 0.5 deficiencies in writing.

I then took the last test on 1st December 2018 and had LRSW - 8.5, 7.5, 7.5, 7.5.
This breakthrough in writing came when Dr Benson offered to teach and review my write-ups. Our CRS score then moved to 445

I never got tired of writing the exam as it was the only mountain before me that needs to be leveled for us to have ITA.

My utmost thanks goes to the God Almighty !!!

I also thank my friends Oby, @Zinggi and @Wasseynet for always being there to listen to my silly talks and unnecessary worry at odd hours of the day (you all will rest now).

Thank you so much Doc Benson for bringing the breakthrough in my writing.

To as many as are looking unto God for PPR, the Lord will grant it.

adebee16:
Hi, please I need the WhatsApp group link for CIMA. Anyone that has it should please quote this and I'd send a PM. Thanks a lot.

Topsmamen:
1. Yes. You can send a PM to @Avidreader748 and discuss with him on WAEC processing.
2. See this link.
3. You pay the Application Fee before you submit your application. The Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) can be paid before you submit your application or you can choose to pay after. It's up to you to decide.

Congratulations!!!

Hi,

Please, could you assist with these few questions?

Did it take you 7weeks to cover the syllabus i.e. You mean the BA1 to BA4 to write the exam?

Did you also write all the 4 papers in one sitting?

How many points will CIMA Cert in BA give towards the CRS?

I am an Engineering graduate, so can I do the CIMA also?

Will appreciate any information you can provide.

Thank you,

cc @Danianne

olamse:
pls did u write cima exams? Can u give me more hints as to the duration. Looking for ways to boost my crs

adenikeO:
Good evening everyone, For those that want to increase their CRS points using BCS (Certificate in IT) examination, I have good news for you.

My evaluation with WES finally came out today, see screenshot below.

I also want to use this opportunity to thank @kemzyebony for drawing my attention to a post here about the BCS exam sometime last year. Trust me I was ready to go to NOUN or study for ACCA even though I don't have any background in accounting, lol.

See link below to join the BCS(Certificate in IT) Whatsapp group for more info.

Hello House,

I need an advise here. Having completed the IELTS exam with a score good enough for FSW application. I understand that I need to do ECA with WES. Here is my question. I have OND from YABATECH, and HND from Federal Polytechnic Ede. Would I need to submit the two certifications to WES, or the highest certification, which is HND. Thanks.

CnCstore:
Hello everyone,please i would like to know if anyone has evaluated B.sc plus CIMA with WES?

Will both be considered as 2 or more certificates by WES?

For CIMA,can i use just certificate in business accounting or i need a professional level for WES evaluation?

kfrosh:
Hi, please do you think CIMA is advisable for someone with an Engineering background. Will I be able to scale through with efficient self study and hard Work?

Nollywoodlove:
Hello. Thanks for bringing this up. I went through their website and it seems like a perfect program. I have a few questions, and I hope someone has answers.

I checked the total costs I would need to spend and I arrived at approximately GBP 300. However, adding study costs, brings an additional GBP 900 to the cost. So I want to know if it is compulsory to get their study materials and register at their tutor centres. Or can I just register for the exams and get good study materials for free online?

Finally and most importantly, can you (and others here) please confirm if WES and ICES actually assess a bachelors degree and CIMA's "Certificate in Business Accounting" as 2 or more certificates? There's another professional diploma from CIMA that gets assessed as 3 years bachelors degree, but I haven't seen any info online on how ECA guys assess this their certificate program.

I hope to get better info from all the ogas here. Please.
