lasignor: IRCC sees IT as internship and they don't generally reckon with internships, especially in Nigeria.
That being said, if it was a paid internship and the pay was considerably good, then the responsibilities that comes with that would definitely not be of internship levels so you may be in the clear here.

miolad20: My Timeline Apr 2018 - IELTS - LRWS 7.5, 9, 6.5, 8 First attempt (BC) July 2018 - WES - BSc July 2018 - CRS Score 398 Dec 2019 - Finished MBA Mar 2020 - IELTS - LRWS 9,9,7.5,7.5 Second attempt (MOD) - I used ieltsliz and ieltsonlinetests to prepare. Apr 2020 - WES Evaluation for MBA July - Got married and jumped into the pool next day CRS - 482 ITA - Aug 5
Medicals were done at Qlife Lagos, quite seamless. I booked via a phone call to the phone number on their website. We got there before 8 am and left around 11 am. PCC was at Alagbon. Wifey did one and same person affidavit at Ikoyi High Court same day. Education - I attached BSc and MBA certs and WES
Marriage - I attached the wedding cert and a collage of pictures from our wedding. Employment - got reference letters from my previous and current employer - same NOC, 5+ years in total. The former did not state salary earned so I added my employment offer letter which shows the salary breakdown. Thanks to Mamaroon for helping to check how my JDs match the NOC 6235 POF - 80% in Mutual Funds and remaining in spouse's account. I attached reference letters from SIAML for the mutual funds, from spouse's bank and a simple letter from her stating that I have access to the fund in her account. I also created a word document showing a breakdown of the POF accounts, the equivalent in CAD and screenshot from XE for the conversion rate used. All put together in a single PDF file.
I used icecream pdf for all merging and splitting. Saved all document and screenshots on the cloud too just in case.
LOE - I did a letter explaining each document uploaded at the major placeholders and why. AOR - Aug 30 - all fees paid with a family friend's Canadian bank card. The rate was at 305 (super low - he just decided to help us) ADR - Sep 22 - Schedule A Background Declaration form (IMM 5669) bearing an original signature. Had to submit my spouse's details all over again. BIL - Sep 30, completed Oct 16. I asked about visa office and application status via webform. The response came about a week later that our file was in Accra VO and that I could contact them directly if I so desire. Rude shock, but we took it with faith. PPR - Nov 9. I don't know the word to describe how I felt. I am yet to recover from it even.
I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed valuable information on this thread series. You guys are heroes!
Congrats! Did your wife also evaluate with WES and did she write IELTS?
Good afternoon everyone. I am thinking since last week whether I should remark my IELTS MOD. Please find below. Does listening every change? Any experience of such?
horlorbah: Good day house. I am done with my WES evaluation already but I recently sat for the IELTS exams. Although, the result isn't ready yet but can I create an EE profile right now?
punchyy: Hello house, please I received my evaluation from WES recently, I noticed that the year my degree was awarded is 2016 instead of 2015, I then decided to check all forms I filled , even the application I sent to my school, and it's 2015 I wrote. I sent a mail to WES, though they ve not replied. Will this error have a negative impact if left unresolved now or in the near future.
I have the same issue. On my ECA the year stated is 2016 whereas I graduated in 2019 because I had some courses I deferred. I hope it would not affect my EE application in the future..
Shed4peace: A time is coming when Men/Women will wish they were Nigerians
John Elton prophesied it about forty years ago. In his words which I'll paraphrase. "Nigeria will be known for corruption all over the world. The name Nigeria will be synonymous to corruption. But in a short while, Nigeria will rise again, anyone who lays hold of a Nigerian will say I will go with you...............
Good morning everyone. I dont know who have experienced this before. WES has sent verification to UNILAG about three weeks ago now but no response yet from the school. Can you please help on what to do?

Hi everyone, I acquired two plots of land in Ogun state late last year but I've not had enough funds to develop it. I have done the survey plan already.
Now I hear the omonile's are busy selling people land there so I need to do something fast! I am thinking of two options:
1. whether I should fence it round and put a gate there ( like 4 block level) 2. Use the funds to build shops in front of the plots
Please based on your experience what shoud I do as I dont want to lose my hard earned money. Does the survey plan cover it from omonile?
Jayboi: Try and raise ur self esteem. physical body features tho may be a major factor but the inbuilt stuff is the most important. Take up on responsibilities. Don't run away from the small leadership roles assigned to u. Watch movies that boost ur confidence. Never be scared to fail. Don't even visualise failure scenario before u do something. just do it and tell ursef that u can. The best of confident people at some point get scared too but their experience help them pull thru. You can even stay in ur room and practice. Take ur phone and record a ten minute monologue and listen to it again and again. These help. Mind I ask, how did u do ur final year defence?
Minister of Transportation, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, and the officials from NRC&NPA inspected the Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge rail project on Saturday,15 August, 2020.
The inspection, which commenced at Ebute-Metta Junction (EBJ) Rail Station at 7:30am, then ride on the narrow gauge corridor to Apapa port to monitor the ongoing work inside the port.
After returned to EBJ, the inspection team boarded the new train at Tejuosho, Yaba, embarked on a ride to Ibadan in Oyo State, and stop at all the railway stations. The stations along the corridor are Apapa, EBJ, Agege, Agbado, Kajola, Papalanto, Abeokuta, Olodo, Omi-Adio and Ibadan. The 10 major and minor stations on the 156km rail line were at various stages of completion but the rail track has been almost completed to EBJ from Ibadan.
The minister said that the CCECC needed to overcome the Covid-19 pandemic, give the personnel enough protection materials and work harder to deliver this project before January 2021.
ednut1: because PNP is not straight forward. for now you can only apply to Saskatchewan without a job offer and their requirements and pnp points are not easy to meet. your degree must match occupation, to score high you need 9 years experience or relative there. only a few would qualify.
British Columbia, new-foundland land and most of the northern territories - job offer needed Manitoba- since July 2019 only students, job offer of work permit holders already there qualify. Alberta- since COVID only those already in Alberta or with Canada experience qualify Ontario - some selected NOC are chosen randomly from the pool CRS 460 to 500 range this year. Nova scotia -chosen randomly from the pool based on NOC in demand there( accountants, carpenters, nurses, advertisers, french speakers, early childhood educators, social workers etc have been picked since last year). New Brunswick- people with french, forestry noc, customer service supervisors etc have been picked at random.
summary: PNP is not as easy and its based mostly on luck. i waited a year for PNP and never got it. only got when I didn't need it anymore from Ontario with 465 crs.
