Hi everyone, please I need a quick advice. I stated in my LOE for my POF that I have a small business aside my job although my POF was not raised from it. I just had to state it due to the influx of the deposit from customers. I was adviced to add it to my personal history but I have been finding it difficult to add due to the options available. The only option that seem ok is employment and it requires employer name or company and even Position.

Please your advice will be highly appreciated

I am in this situation as well.

My former colleagues no longer work for the company and the company is not really functional. Plus it was a one man business.

Do you think a former colleague (who no longer works there) can write a reference letter for me and attach their previous work ID card?

I only have resignation letter and bank statement to show that I actually worked there.

In this case, what's the best way to handle this?

mamaroon, ednut and other seniors, please share your thoughts.

Rerin:
I tried making payment for 32pages standard e passport yesterday via online through netpost or so which i saw at NIS website, it was requesting for my Card pin which is unusual. Pls is it normal? Can someone advise with alternative

fadeofresh:
Hey Guys,

Please share some dependable sites to order gcms notes?

Mamaroon:
You have said it all senior Dimple.

1.Gold Standard- ref letter in IRCC format signed by HR or supervisor on letter head

2.Next Best Thing - ref letter on plain paper signed by supervisor or colleague with business card/ID

Adding goals, appraisals, promotion letter, pay slips with LOE in the absence of 1 and 2 above is a gamble, #personalopinion. I also don't think affidavits are permitted. Someone just showed us his GCMS notes with review required, he did not submit his ref letter.

You may also check this old post, the docs suggested may show you work in XYZ company but I'm not sure they show the duties performed:

Go and look for any former owners, supervisors or colleagues would be my suggestion.

franzyod:
I don't know anyone that works there. The business is more or less not functional again.

Uriel12:
I'm only allowed to write the exam with the proof of identification I registered with.

How do I forfeit?
Do I cancel the order somewhere? Or I just go to the office and let them know about the decision.

Prudento:
From my former application (trv), AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt?) usually comes a day or a few days after application. So, does that invariably mean once your application is received it is no longer impacted by spouse's profile?

Uriel12:
Yes. But unlike you, mine is so urgent.
I'm on the verge of losing an opportunity with no where to turn to now...

Serious waiting

It's finished rn

vitrendy4eva:
Guys please I need help. In a dilemma. Already booked medicals for Wednesday only to misplace my passport today(still searching for it. Pls does anyone have a contact at NIS Abuja that can fast track passport replacement process(possibly same day)? This is urgent plsssss.

franzyod:
Hi guys,

What can I do when my past employers refused to give reference letters? The both jobs were one man businesses and they have totally ignored my emails.

These reference letters are the only things holding me back now.

Please anyone who has been in this situation or knew someone who was, kindly let me know the way forward.

Prudento:
If you get married after submitting e-APR (is that e-application?), will your wife's profile still count towards your crs score and could you be denied if it falls way below the cut of for the round of invitations? At what point may you add your spouse without impacting your application?


Thanks.

darlinvalerie:
OMG!!!
Dimple10 thank you sooooooo very much.
I have been looking over my original post over and over again to see if I didnt explain myself well cos previous replies were not even answering the questions I asked. thank you!

Thank you again Dimple10!!!! :-)

darlinvalerie:
The question was not answered.
In the Education section, they ask how many years spent for the WAEC degree and they also ask name of school.
I wrote WAEC twice and at different schools, so I am asking what the RIGHT thing to fill is, which is the basis of my original question (pls read it again)
Its not about how many points it will fetch me.

OlakunmiSMELTD:
Please guy, where is the place for me to change my Naira to euro?
It is possible I change it at my bank ( GTB)

Secondly, I planned to use use local flight from Abuja to Lagos first, before talking the international flight.
My worries now is that, local flight is 20k
While international flight is 23kg * 2
My luggage is about 35kg *1

Will the local flight accept the 35kg or charge me ?
What could likely be the charge of the 15kg extra

Thirdly, international flight says 23kg * 2
But am only Carrying 35kg * 1
And 1 school bag
Will that be a problem or I must have 23kg and 12kg in another luagage

darlinvalerie:
Can anyone answer this question for me? please and thank you.

LuckBrother:
Hello family, been following this thread as a guest and I appreciate the work everyone is doing to help each other. I have a small issue I want to clarify.

My POF has been complete since last year when I thought I'll get ITA from back to back draws of dec. Anyway, fast forward to this year and I decided to use some money for business to earn more funds during Covid19. Now I've gotten ITA, I'm expecting the balance of 400k from a colleague I did the business with to be returned back to my account which will bring my funds back to being above the minimum. Hope it wouldn't be a problem when I submit my bank statement? Pls I need your advice

Debbieeeeeee:
Looks like the proper account though , maybe explore the other payment options like going to their office if you’re not comfortable paying online , but that account number is the number

Influential101:
Anyone ?

Hi everyone,

I just checked my IELTS result and had

Overall
8.0

Listening
8.0
Reading
9.0
Writing
7.0
Speaking
7.5

I'm thinking of remarking my writing and hopefully get a 7.5. I'm worried that the mark could decrease after reevaluation.

Is this possible? can the score reduce?

Please help

Prudento:
Consider a scenereo where someone has experiences as 1. Agric. Extension Advisor (NOC A) - 1year, 2. Food Service Supervisor (NOC B) - 1yr, and Baker (NOC B) - 1yr. Is it acceptable as 3yrs experience?

Prudento:
Hello my people, please I'm confused about the work experience requirement. Please what do they mean by this:
" ii. In the last 10 years, how many total years of foreign skilled work experience do you have?
It must have been paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation"

Does one occupation mean you should be, for example, a Baker, or Teacher... for the entire period? What if you have three different jobs under the same NOC within the ten years; is it acceptable?

Thank you o

lasignor:
471 is a longshot in present clime. While he keeps the score, there's no harm in trying to max out IELTS. He stands a better chance with 474.

mobenjackson:
Congrats... They photocopied my result for you, bt as i still dey 471, man gaz rewrite in few days to attain 474, make me sef fit clinch ITA.

Chukwuemekatehi:
Somebody should help oooo. Ieltsonlinetest's practice are too fast and the highest I have gotten is 30. I'm worried, can someone suggest an online practice site I can practice with.

bezimo:
I used NYSC and got my PR no issues.All you mentioned are not necessary..LOE..payslips..bank statement(except its to satisfy POF requirement) etc

Anybody using NYSC must provide the reference letter on the school letter headed paper and MUST indicate the period worked as at least precisely 1 year or more...not less. Hours worked per week must also be stated and not less than 30hrs. Remuneration on a per month or per annum basis must be indicated on the letter. Responsibilities also must be clearly stated.
This should be fine. The letter is enough to stand on its own to justify your eligibility under the FSW stream...

If you had gotten the right counsel before your first submission you would not have been dismissed..

youngwolf:
In my case here I have checked my result online with idp and my speaking changed now my crs score will be 474. Now I’m worried because I don’t know if the TRF number will change. I just called MODs office and the told me the print out is not ready. And I really wanted to take advantage of the draws today.
