Hi all, WES provided me with a due date of completion for 21st of this month. Its looks quire far off to me.does anyone have an idea on how I can hasten them up on the completed evaluation report?

I hear they sometimes provide reports earlier?? Is that a function of how well one follows up or sheer chance?

Hi, I have a masters degree and almost rounding up a doctoral degree all in Nigeria, do I need to submit transcript of my first to third degree?
no,just your only masters degree is fine if you want to evaluate as at today. At any point in time, your highest degree earned always superceeds the lower ones

Assuming there's no penal charges like that of Union Bank, the answer to your question is that you are very likely to lose substantial part of the upfront interest paid to you.

Assuming you bought N1,000,000 TB on 1st Jan at 12% for 364days, your upfront interest before the usual deductions is N120,000.

Also, assuming you terminate on 30th August, the actual interest you will be entitled to for the 243days= 243/364 × N120,000 = N80,109.89.

That means you are to refund N39,890.11 as excess interest received.

Now, the 1m is now to be sold at 18% for the remaining 121days>> the upfront interest payable to the new buyer is 121/364 × N1,000,000 x 18/100 = N59,835.17. That amount (N59,835.17) will equally be charged on you i.e your total refund or deduction from your 1m is now N99,725.28 since you have been paid N120,000 upfront. This is the amount you would lose excluding other normal charges which are very unlikely to be up to the N20,274.72 left out of the N120,000 you received as upfront interest.

So, in a nut shell, you will be losing almost but not all the upfront interest you collected without affecting your principal (assuming there is no penal charge of 25% as it's charged by Union Bank). Otherwise, the penal charge will eat into your Principal amount
Well done Sir. What if I bought in the secondary market? Can I terminate my investment too??

Is it the same scenario illustrated above that applies. If not ,can you throw some light on how terminating in the secondary market works.

Thanks

Good morning house. How do I process my IELTS? I went to the site and saw so many confusing codes, I intend using my Zenith account for the process. Also kindly provide a guide on how to raise a bank draft for me. Please help out a sister. I will be writing in Benin hopefully.
www.britishcouncil.org.ng and follow the instructions. You may need to visit your bank too.

Also why don't you begin with the evaluation of your transcripts first. While u wait, read intensely for ielts. Except u have 68k to dash BC.

I intend waiting till July because of some reasons
1. This will be my first time attempting the IELTS and I pray it should be the last. I want to clear it all by God's grace. So I intend reading and practicing extensively.
2. NASU is on strike now and I cant get my original certificate and transcript from post-graduate school in UNN. I have my statement of result anyways and it expired last year October because it is valid for one year and boldly written underneath it. What I do most times when using it is to fold that part of it and photocopy.
3. The proof of fund scares the shit out of me. 15,530 Canadian dollars. Hubby and I dont have that kind of money and we are still thinking of what to do. I read here that ITA expires after 90days, so if I am ITA and POF is not within my reach within that period, I will be thrown back into the pool.
4. I am the only one writing the IELTS and sending my result to WES. Reason being cash.
These are my challenges. We are only trying to stall time in other to avoid unnecessary expenses and waste of resources.
PLEASE IF ANY ONE HAS AN IDEA OF HOW I CAN GET MY TRANSCRIPT AND ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE FROM UNN, DO WELL TO LET ME KNOW. ALSO, HOW TO GENERATE 15,530 Canadian dollars WITHIN THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE TIME SHOULD ALSO LET ME KNOW. I am based in Asaba, Delta State. THANK YOU
OK your points are well noted. But I have observed that time is usually not friendly pre-ita.

I will advise you work on both your ielts and evaluation for both you and spouse. It will pay off in the long run.

As per funds, begin to look inward .sell a property, a car, a land or something. By the time you are ready to apply, the lumpsum will not be an issue again.

God will make a way, but you need to watch n pray.

The six weeks is not entirely true, though some applicants experience delays of some sort. Normally, your request should be treated within 3 to 4 weeks.

The Unilag site is actually running but the transcript page is off, if it remains off till (or after) NASU calls off their strike, try get to senate if you can, if not, send a proxy that gets things done.
proxy sef can't work now,the entire exams records floor is shutdown and dark

These CIC people are beginning to vex me. They must be smoking something. So they make us wait 3 weeks only to still invite just 2750 people again even when they have higher targeted for 2018. It’s like this talk of CIC being unpredictable is getting into their head. Na by force to be unpredictable? SMH.
It’s a little annoying though when some of us don nearly drown finish inside pool waiting for life jacket (ITA); whereas some others just enter pool and catch ITA same day even before their cloth wet. Issokay!
Anyway, Congrats to all ITA recipients; and please, I’m not beefing o. Safe journey from here on!

Hi Guys- this is my first post on this thread. I have some few questions regarding qualification. I am 34 with a degree . My CRS is hovering around 395 and i need an extra qualification to boast it. I have exhausted all other means

My questions are:

Does Canadian online courses count for any point. I am thinking of doing an online certification course . I've found couple of Universities in Canada but, want to be sure before wasting money on it?

Which one should i do ; Diploma or a year certificate?

I am kind of desperate right now due to my age as my score will drop again in August ,2018. sad embarassed embarassed embarassed

Will WEC/ IRCC accept a year certificate from Damelin or other colleges in South Africa ( i'm based in SA) if i decided to take the course in SA?

Please guys any advise will be highly appreciated now. i am confused on what to do!
