Career / Re: Basic Medical Science In Nigeria - The Way Forward? by drdams: 3:37am On Aug 24, 2021
The share triggered my attention.
I can't believe I wrote with so much abbreviations that I am even pissed at myself. Lol.

Blackberry days...

drdams:

In d good old days, graduates of anatomy, physio, medical mic, med parasitology, et al ar entitled to d licensce of d Medical Laboratory Science Society of Nigeria only if u offer a post graduate dip. Course in med. Lab science and write and pass d subsequent professional exams.
Now, smtyms in 2008/2009, d constitution changed.
Why, ? Med Lab Science Major believe they wud soon bcom extinct cos oda bms grad wit d licence ar more diverse than them.,
politics entered, d new constitution stipulates u must av a BMLS either through utme or Direct Entry ( they xpect oda BMS 2 start frm 200L after 5yrs B.Sc. N NYSC, Imagine?)
This alone pose a threat to d dreams of most cos u canneva xtablish and control a Med Lab without this liscence..
They left most pple hopes in Shambles!!

Thats not d norms inAdvance Countries...

Av seen Zoology, Mcb and even BcH grad xtablish a lab with full accreditation and license (when d constitution was still favourable)..

High Point : Nigerians are the problems of Nigerians.

D best thing for BMS now is to increase their research prowess, go into academics or deviate into d corporate field by acquiring d required professional certification.

Good evening house.
my fiancée is finishing her studies in Toronto next month and we will be getting married in july.
she will be applying for her post graduate 3 years work permit also.
Is it possible she files for temporary work permit for me based on spousal grounds after we are legally married?
We are trying to put up all options since i have 455 score in the pool based on high age after maxing out ielts.
i will be grateful for any inputs.

She should be able

Also , when you marry, update your application to reflect your spouse is a CEC. Your score should jump

Congratulations on your PPR!

Do you mean you received a mail to submit your passport but want to do medicals before submitting your passport for stamping and COPR?

Depends on so many factors, I think:
* on how long you have been given to send your passport
* on the VO you plan to send to and how quickly it will take your passport to get there
* on how long it will take your medicals to be updated on your profile

You could give it a try, but the question is will your medicals be passed quickly enough by IRCC for the new date to be incorporated on your visa and COPR when issued.

Please what was your VO? I actually thought IRCC were not issuing PPRs any longer because of the travel restrictions...interesting times...

PS: people do remedicals all the time, without being asked.

1. About two months and been pending with lvo

2. Been in lvo for close to 2 months

3. I dont know long. Learnt it can be up to 10days because I will have to give them my app number since no imei

Be careful what you wish for.

Stay out of London.

People have been stuck for 2 months post PPR no visa yet.

Be careful, her case is strange and can only be called favour.

Thanks so much for sharing!
Congratulations Queen!!....manage this photo please.

I love PPR gists, always something to learn e.g. London VFS still working with faster turnaround than Lagos VFS even with lockdown!

I will share my PPR gist on this NL by the grace of God...not for culture sake but to play it forward.

Good Evening Seniors,

Quick question on POF.

1. Please is it acceptable to show POF as Mutual Fund Letter only without the statement that comes with the letter. I am using gift deed covering 100% of the amount.

2. I part liquidated the funds (N1m) and returned it within a week. If I submit the statement showing this transaction, could this be an issue for me?

I haven't gotten ITA but expect to by the next draw.

If there is not fishy, you are fine. Keep it simple though. Reduce need for more paper works

Been unable to reach them from Nigeria. Only time I was able to reach them, it was via third party phone call.


Download Skype and subscribe to free calls to Canada for one month. Try from 1 to 2pm naija time and also between 9pm and 10pm naija time. However this is not cast in stone. You gotta keep trying till they pick, some of us have been there before.

Just keep trying and trying. When they pick, go straight to the point:

1. Narrate you situation and make your request
2. Specifically ask for the VO treating your file.
3. Irrespective of their feedback, shoot a mail to the VO

Dear House,
Please help look into this:
I started my application alone.
ITA was received in September 2019. Age 30, birthday in May.
Medicals and Biometrics done in October 2019.
PPR was finally issued in February 2020.
I decided to add spouse to avoid boredom in strange land and hurdles of sponsoring spouse later on. Marriage took place first week in March and notification sent to CIC.
All the documents for the spouse( Medicals and Police report) were also prepared immediately after marriage as we expected this would be submitted.
We submitted all documents and added spouse to application by 3rd week in March, including police report and medicals.
Till date, CIC has not responded to enquiries or provided update for spouse or requested for her biometrics. All web forms keep getting the same response that it is being processed and that additional information will be asked if required. We requested for GCMS notes and the last update on it stated April 2020.
Please what could be causing the hold up, do we keep raising web forms or just wait and hope for the best?
I will be 32 in 2021. Is age going to be a factor?
Lest I forget, my passport even expired during this process on my birthday. I have gotten a new passport, and added it to my application. Needless to say, my medicals is also over a year.

Please call IRCC on telephone and cry for help. This will work.

You also need to know where your visa office is so you can shoot mail directly to this office

MamaHeaven:
Hello all, please I have 2 questions:
1. Must one have all your POF before ITA or can funds still come in after ITA?
2. I have about 5 accounts with 5 different banks. Would I need to get bank statements and non-indebtedness letter from all of them, or would I just need to provide for just my Proof of funds account and salary account.


Thanks

5 account is too much though not a spoken rule. Just keep your application concise. Start consolidating your account to avoid multiple paper works.

Reference letter and statement is sufficient

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
You maxed out speaking and reading by CIC standard and listening is obective and never changes so dont stress yourself, remark writing. Worse case is your score remain same

Thanks a lot Bro.

I ordered GCMS yesterday - no time to waste anymore cheesy. Hopefully, the feedback from GCMS will bring more clarity into understanding the delay.

My VO is actually Montreal but whenever I try to send a webform, Montreal VO doesn't pop up in the dropdown. I only see Accra, Lagos etc.


How dis you find yourself in montreal? Married post AOR or inland?

Since I'm not an authority in this field, I may not argue with her submission. Someone I'm very closed to who's also working in First bank told me yesterday that CBN policy says even though you buy dollar from Aboki and deposit it in your dorm account, you can transfer a maximum of 10k electronically every two weeks.

Forget the bews, I have dom account with diff banks and been unable to transfer (want to take advantage of the rates since I bought the dols N350 per doll since 2018) as they came in through cash deposit. Not had time to visit the branch amidst this covid and closure of branches closest to me. I suggest your read through the docs. This should be subject to availability of dollars and I bet you banks would hold on to that clause. It is apparent dollar is scarce hence reason for reducing limits. How then do you expect them to allow you transfer funds that were gotten via deposit.

You have passed eligibility and security comes immediately after that.

Criminality is you PCC and should have been passed.

Security and criminality is not an issue provided you are and were not a terrorist or national probs and you also provided valid police reports for all countries you have lived up to 6months in

Mr non proverbial reading black man.... below is the quote from the information provided regarding capacity.

Limited to 50 people..... multiple services can be held.... but only on one day..... Fridays for Muslims.... Sundays for Christians.

Let me chew on this.

Limited to 50 people. So the guy with the stadium like church .... 50 people..... and the noise maker next door in house turn church .... 50 people. Same with the masjid.

Fridays for Muslims ... Sundays for Christians. What about the "Sabbath/Saturday worshippers?

....and if multiple services can be held on one day... why can't services be held on other days? If numbers are limited in places of worship why aren't numbers limited in other places... such as markets?
Can someone who supports this directive please explain?

After all the ranting, it is obvious you dont read and you are an epitome of the proverbial black man who miss out of information because it has been hidden in a book.

There is a sharp contrast between 50% capacity and 50 people. Listen /read before ranting and passing the wrong info further.. He also addressed sabath day church concern.

Come on! You suck!!!!!

You missed it at the point you mentioned EXECUTIVE TRAINEE ROLE. ETs are core staff and mostly take up roles in NOC B.

Have you seen any ET as Teller or customer service rep?

amaya21:
If her work experience isn't eligible, then it won't matter if her IELTS is perfect. The problem with her being the PA is that some of those entry level teller / executive trainee roles at the bank are classified as NOC type C, which is NOT eligible for Express Entry.

She should still take IELTS, but it is better if she takes it to add points to the application with you as the PA.

Also you don't need a background in education to use your teaching experience as eligible work experience.

Evening guys, Good Job you are doing here...

My Details

Married
Age- 31years (May 1)
wife -26years (June 4) her sister is in Saskatchewan as PR
Education - Both of Us has Masters
wife's work experience - 2years frontline internship in ACCESS Bank (work duties is majorly that of Teller and other Executive Trainee). she Works in almost all the Units in the Bank within the two years.
Principal Applicant - Wife will Definitely be the Principal Applicant

so My Question is this.
1. Can she use the 2years Work Experience for Express Entry. If yes, what will be the NOC?
2. for ECA, do WES considers the CGPA when evaluating Master or they Just Evaluate Master as Canada Equivalent of masters

You must be the PA. You guys ll still claim 15 marks siblings point. Ensur you max out ielts 8.5 7.5 8.0 7.5 lsrw whilst your wife gets 7 in all so she ll gain the max point for ielts for accompanying spouse.

Ensure you both evaluate your masters and viola! Your score ll definately be more than most singles.

FL NOC is not eligible. Belongs to skill category C
