I heard about this sad news from a reliable source yesterday but the story here is quite far from the truth

You could share your own version.

Hmmmm
My girlfriend gisted me about this sad event just this morning when i woke up. It happened just beside her in-law's house in Ogudu GRA.
Infact she claimed u could still see some on the lady's blood in front of the inlaw's house.

According to my gf, the lady and the guy who live in the same compound. She, in the BQ, while the guy in the main house with the landlord who is the guy's uncle. The guy is one unemployed rogue who was brought to Lagos to see what he could make out from his life.
Whenever the girl goes out, he breaks her padlock and steal her stuffs. She caught in one day and the uncle, who was the landlord sent him packing. I guess the guy blamed the lady for his misfortune.

There was an occasion at the house on saturday where the guy was supposed to attend. Whether he attended or not, she didn't know. But he took advantage of the event to lay ambush for the lady.

He attacked her very close to the house and stabbed her severally to the extent that her kidney spilled out. It was the uncle who came out first and saw the incident. He attacked the guy and called for help. When people came out, incredibly the guy pointed to the uncle as the killer.
At that time, the police had come. Unknown to the guy, a security guy saw the incident from afar. He initially thought it was a couple arguing.
It was the security who revealed that it was the guy that killed her.

Guy awaiting sentence.

Heard she was the only child of her parents.

The story spoiled my day before it began

verrady:

Verrady, can you help with passport issues?
A brother has some issues with his passport. His passport was kind of seized by the British embassy but was sent to Nigeria. He was told be the embassy that they have sent the passport to Nigeria, but he has not been able to locate the passport. He has tried several people who only took his money without result. He even tried applying for another one but was told the present one hasn't expired. Any help you can render?

Gurus in the house, pls I need your help
When I applied for my fsw, I used fixed deposit as my pof. As it is now, am in need of cash and would like to cancel the fixed deposit. Is it okay to later use a combination of fixed deposit and statement of savings acct as my pof update later or must the pof remain the fixed deposit I have used for the appl initially, thank u you all.

I think you can go ahead and teminate you investment. But make sure you have a readily available funds to provide whenever you are called on to show pof. Also, you can use a combination of fixed deposit and savings acct as pof, as long as they add up to the required minimum sum.

Cheers!

Does WES accepts transcript posted by applicants. it was stated on the website that the transcript should be posted by the awarding institution.
please shed more light on this.

Bissiejoe,

Although it is advisable for your institution to send your transcript directly to WES, you can send it yourself if you can get it from the institution.
Let me explain my case to you.
When I was processing my ECAS, I printed the request form online and i took it directly to my institution. Knowing that my institution could delay in sending the transcript, I paid for the necessary things and pleaded with the person in charge to give me the package to be sent so I can send it myself through courier. I had to do this because Firstly, i wasnt expecting my school to send on time and even when they would send, they would use the regular mail which could take a month or more to get to WES.
I was working with time. I collected the stamped and sealed envelope from my institution myself and sent it through DHL.
I waited a day to send photocopies of my certificate.
Both were received and certified good to go.
My evaluation didn't take more than 7days.

hello house, I NEED HELP

I applied for the federal skill immigration programme since November 2014 before the new programm; express entry. up till now i have not got any response from the immigration office neither has my application fee $550 has been deducted from my acct. Its almost 3 months now and this has got me worried. Does it take so long before one gets response? I will like some clarification if anyone had experienced this.

Regards,
okdyn2001

What mode did you use to mail your application? by post mail or courier?

toksys:
PLS CAN I USE MY MASTERCARD DEBIT CARD TO PAY FOR MY WES OR DO I NEED TO APPLY FOR CREDIT CARD

CAN ANOTHER PERSON WITH A CREDIT CARD PAY FOR ME AND WILL GIVE HIM THE NAIRA EQUVALENT

PLEASE URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED

Go ahead and use your mastercard. But inform your bank before you do the transaction. Most people here used their mastercard for WES.

EJINNE:
Tnx Solo for ur swift response. But wat am sayin is dat my schl issues transcript in person handy and I have applied and have it with me to avoid delay. Is there no way I could mail this transcript and degree electronically to Wes? Tnx.

You can send your transcript and ur degree certificate to WES differently by courier, since you are time conscious.. But u must use your school official envelope to send your transcript so that it would look like your school sent it. The envelope much be stamped too.
Remember, send them differently.

Chill bro. Sebi na to charge u? They will charge u.

unibadan:
I applied under NOC 1114

App received date is 9th Dec

Fee method is CC

I could see in other forum that dec 9th applicant was charged yesterday.

Any hope for me?

mcphems123:
Just got charged.
Dec 3 application
NOC 1212

Con-congratulations! Oya join the queue

For those of you who would like to know, the naira equivalent charged is N87,644.55.

Thanks guys, I just received the other alert of the naira equivalent. Benik, Tola and Damkollins, really appreciate your assurance.
Now I can relax.

damkollins:
Congrats in advance .
Sometimes ,it may take up to a week or more for it to be cleared.
The most important thing is that CIC has been granted access to remove the cash from your account.
All is well as you're in good hands .
Cheers .

Thanks for your assurance

benik:
relax that is the normal process, it will clear. just give it few more days. its not likely you get any other alert though. i have in the past used gtb card for international transaction and all i get is more like a notification. so pally relax

I am a bit confused here. I got an alert from gtb on the 21st Jan 2015 that "the naira equivalent of CAD550.00 has been authorized for the transaction done on CITIZENSHIP & IMM FS SYDNEY CA". Usually, I was supposed to receive another alert informing me of the naira equivalent and the balance on my account but it didn't come.
I went to check my balance at the ATM. There were 2 different balances; Ledger Balance and Available Balance. A closer look at the balances showed that the available balance is my net balance after deducting what was supposed to be the naira equivalent of CAD 550.
I called GTCONNET to find out what was wrong. The officer said the transaction has been authorised but CIC haven't come for settlement. That is why they are holding a lien on my balance. He said they usually allow for 30days, failing which the transaction will be cancelled. He told me to contact CIC to complete the transaction.
Today is 26th and I am yet to receive the alert for the conclusion of the transaction.
I would like to know if anyone is experiencing this too, and how this affects my application

solomonwis:
Congratulations!

Thanks bro!

Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to inform you that I just got the alert from gtbank on the charge on my account this evening.
I represent November 26th (NOC 0111).
Awaiting PER.

shabbey09:
They've started debiting those that their applications were received on 24th November.
Hope those using CC have informed their bank ahead incase therez a limit on your card.

Okay. On my knees now praying. Represent Nov 26, NOC 0111

Does anyone have an idea of what day is being charged presently. I am a November 26th applicant. NOC 0111.
Or has anyone around that day been charged?

loriaidah:
Hi merry Xmas and a prosperous. new year in advanced everyone. pls when should someone whos application was recieved on the 3rd november get his per and encashed?

From my calculations and judging from recent updates, I think you should expect to be charged early february and PER before the end of same month.

Jetspeed:
Thanks Damkollins. But cant see the name of the person that signed for my application. It is blank. Any cause to worry?

I guess you used DHL. I used DHL too and the name of the receiver was blank. Nothing to worry about.
Waiting for the alert! I sent in Nov 24. Hopefully, by end of january or mid february.

princessayinke:
i just sent mine too. used dhl. and they assured me it will get there on monday. dhl is good..

Monday! I don't want to believe that.
But in this world, nothing is impossible.

tola73:
It just that DHL don't go to NS, they will hand it over to other courier company in Canada that they partner with. For this period its risky because most courier company will be doing Christmas delivery

Good one. I guess UPS is the better option then.

tola73:
please use UPS

Any reason why you are insisting on UPS? I sent mine through DHL and it got there four days later. And it costed me N12,800.

princessayinke:
Please my birth certificate bears a second name that I don't use at all. It doesnt even appear on any of my documents. I use another second name which appears on all my documents. What can I do

Not to worry. Use the other name that appears on all your documents on the forms.
On Form IMM0008ENU_2D, under personal details, number 2 precisely, where you are asked if you have ever used any other name, put the name that you don't usually use which appears on your birth certificate.

Goodluck

Fingertips:
My application was received on Nov. 17th but my proof of delivery showed signed for by 'blank'. There was no name. Should i be worried? However, I mailed dhl support to tell me who exactly signed for the package.

Same shoes we are in bro. Mine also showed blank. I guess it was delivered. Problem could be DHL's.
I am not worried anyway. Sent mine on 25th Nov.
