Hello guys, please i need help as regards filling my application. Got ITA 20th March. My husband and i are confused as reagrds this question. The part on travel history. " Has Ash and if applicable Ash family members taken any trips outside their country of origin or residence in the last 10 years ( or since their 18th birthday)" Does this mean that i have to include travel trips of maybe my siblings or parents Or just myself and husband? Thanks for your help...

Guys... been in this journey for years. Awaiting my IELTS Result. Will be 34 In July and the pressure to get married is on. But getting married now could ruin my csr score and hamper my dream of being a PR holder.

Is there a way around this ?

Kindly advice.

Hello house, I just thought I should drop this here as it might help someone on this journey. I would try to keep this as brief as possible.

So some of you may know that I have been trying to get my North Cyprus PCC for a while now. Along the way, I Crossed paths with a very selfless Nigerian on this thread called Temas. He posted the first step by step process of getting the PCC, even shared the link of the agent I eventually used. Before I start rambling about how great this guy is let me go straight to the point.

I would advice anyone looking to get a PCC from North Cyprus to use an agent. Not that you cannot do it without one but if you don’t want to be as fraustrated as I was just save yourself the headache. What do you need?

1. Write a letter giving the agent proxy to apply for and collect your PCC on your behalf ( Pm me for his contact details)
2. Notorize this letter ( did mine at high court Ikeja for 1,500 naija. They will even take 1,200 if you can bargain)
3. Send/Take this letter to the Ministry of foreign affairs Abuja to authenticate it ( this would cost you btw 5 -10k and would take a day or two)
4. Thereafter, take the letter to Turkish embassy Abuja for authentication ( cost $20 per page and would take btw 2 days to a week)
5. Send the letter along with 2 passport photographs to the agents address in North Cyprus ( used dhl for 26k and documents got there in about 8 days). *please emphasize that it’s North Cyprus not just Cyprus before they send it to Larnaca. Happened to me an they had to send it back to Turkey then Ercan*
6. When the agent gets your documents he would inform you and then you’ll need to pay his fees( Cost $150 dollars . Did western union)
7. You would need to also send him your passport datapage via mail

After all this you should get the soft copy of your PCC in like a week. He would send the hard copy via normal post( I sha don’t need it). Finally, It has ended in praise. Please help me thank Temas, he kept checking up on me when Turkish police were frustrating my and my proxy. Thank you sir and I hope one day I’ll meet you and madam in canny.

I can't get over my result. Am not so good in writing, I practiced so hard for the writing and manage to pass and listening that I feel so confident about messes me up. I seek for advice for a remark I got a go ahead from just one. I have searched and got only one case where listening was upgraded. Don't know what to do. Please guys I need advice should I go for a remark?
First attempt LRWS 8.5, 6.5, 6.0, 7.5
Second attempt LRWS 7.5, 7.5, 7, 7.5.

I'm kind of certain I did well in the Listening and anticipated an 8.5, what could possibly go wrong?

Jenolyfavour:
Good evening house. Please I want to register for ECA. And have masters in engineering and my spouse has masters in fine art. Should I use ICES, WES or IQAS? Or is there any other evaluating body better for us?

amoskitto:


Thanks Ifeoma. Please where can I get a comprehensive list of all the requirements and documentations I would be needing for my application? Is there any link (or page) that itemizes everything?

Anikulapu:

Oh you have written twice , I said myself and my wife wrote 9 times so who be the customer here. I once had an accident on my way for the speaking test and they allowed me even when I was late just because they recognized my face so well. Bro I also wrote on my birthday too, they sang for me. But all ended in praise.

amoskitto:
Hello all,
I have a few questions as I prepare for ITA, which hopefully I should get sometime in May. My wife and I are applying (with her as the PA). We were just informed by our respective contacts in our schools that they have sent our verification back to WES. So hopefully our WES ECA reports should be out sometime around middle of May. We have also scaled through IELTS and our CRS stands at 458. So my question is how early can we begin to put together our requirements?

How long does it take on the average to schedule a medical test and get the report out? Is it okay for the date on the medical report to precede ITA?

Is it acceptable for the date on the employment reference letter to precede ITA? If so, boy how many weeks? In other words, can we start processing job reference letter in April even though we may not apply till May ending?

Are there any requirements that I can only start processing after ITA? Or can I just start collating everything now?

Pardon any typos biko. The story long small.

Gec8:


Thank you bro, I have started the real thing.

Please i'm at a fix.

Seeing that WES calls it a Postgraduate degree (one year) What do I select in the main profile? My options are:
- One year program at a university?
-Two year program at a university?
- Masters OR Professional degree?

Please I would appreciate your prompt response.

My sincere apologies for the long post. It just happened, I never intended rambling so much. Best regards and best wishes to everyone.

I have done my WES and in Canadian standard, it says the canadian equivalence is a Bachelors of 4 years and Postgraduate Diploma of 1 year. What do I select when running the mock CRS? Do I select it as a Masters Degree or as a two or more cert?

Please I will appreciate your advice

there are two questions in number 1

Adunnee:
Hi Seniors, I have a few questions- (Post ITA, filling out forms):

1. If one of my parents had a child out of wedlock, that makes the child my half sibling right? How about if my parent was not married to the child's parent, does that make the child's parent my step parent?
2. Do I need to fill in my academic and professional certificates that I did not do ECA for, in the education history?
3. If the answers to the questions in number (1) are "yes", does this apply to my spouse too?

Vancouver4:

teeielts360:
Hello Guys.

i'm going to take this post like my first therapy session.
i am teeielts360, a prospective Express Entry applicant.
i think i'm .... sorry. i am an IELTS addict.
i've been up here since the beginning of this thread and between then and now, today confirms my 5th but not final IELTS test.

1ST- APRIL 2017: LRWS- 8.5, 6.5, 6.0, 7.5 (BC)

2ND- OCT 2017: LRWS- 7.0, 8.0, 8.0, 7.5 (BC) EOR UNCHANGED

ANYBODY, EVERYBODY.

I REALLY NEED HELP ON THIS ONE.

ladymarshall:
It is not true. I wrote about 320 words, collected extra sheets and got an 8. Your grammatical accuracy, structure, coherence, flow and vocabulary range are what matters. It should be the exact length (250) or lenghtier. Perhaps, they had every other points checked and were short of lenght, which would make the advice of extending the lenght to 10 more words at least relevant. I would worry more about coherence especially for task 2 and grammatical accuracy for both tasks considering the time pressure. You had an 8 before so you stand a better chance in your next (and last attempt hopefully). But get a third eye to look at your personal writing drafts, you might be surprised at the evaluation.

Please for those with US passport, did you submit same at vfs? Or just photocopy since they wont stamp visa on it? Plssssss , I have to be at VFS in the morning.

DeltaSigma:
Hi Guys, I just stumbled on this good thread after I had started my Canada Immigration processes. Please. I have questions that require urgent answers:
1. I have generated a Reference Number on WES but yet to Pay, because I plan to pay via Western Union transfer. I registered as a SINGLE, although, I'll be getting married soon. Will I get more point as a single or should I get married first before I begin the process...which is more rewarding?

2. Having submitted a WES application as a SINGLE, can I reopen another WES as MARRIED and begin the process all over or can I write WES to change my status or open my page for editing?

3. Is it advisable to use a friend as relative in Canada, will the know?

Please, I need your sincere answers base on experience and facts. Thank you.

DeltaSigma:
For someone who used 2 sittings results for University entrance...do I need to evaluate both with WES, NECO and WAEC?

Secondly, 448 point good enough to earn an ITA?

ladymarshall:
The eApr requires a soft copy digital photo so how do we provide the backpage of the photo where we are asked to write our DOB and the photographer's address? Do we provide it at this stage or during the PPR stage?

samsonedos:


God is faithful.....
I applied for EOR as advised and I did a rewrite on the 23rd march.
EOR: Not yet out
Rewrite: L-8.5 R-8.5 W-7 S-7.5.

IELTS cleared.
WES: Awaiting verification from university
ITA coming soon....

Topsmamen:


Is there really a change in family configuration? Seeing as they are both single until they get married, no?

Edited: Ok. That's if they get married before landing, then they have to inform. Seconded.

DesignerDesigne:
congratulations!

Hello everyone, My husband and I have had intentions to relocate for a while now but we’re not sure how to go about it till we found this thread and watched some videos on youtube.

We have begun our ECA with IQAS didn’t know about WES before now and also preparing for IELTS but I have a couple of questions.

From the eligibility quiz we have taken, my score is 394 (I have a B.A certificate, I’m less than 30 years of age and I have 2 years proven work experience as an HR)
My Husband’s CSR score is 400 (He’s above 30 years of age, about 6 years experience as a graphic designer, and an HND) what can we do to increase our point?

-we have a close friend in Canada can we add him as a relative living in Canada to claim the point? if so , what are the things we’ll need to do to prove our relatedness to this person?

-I have been reading about knowing the appropriate time to enter the pool, Please I need more explanation on this.

As to POF, can we include our pension fund? If yes, how do we go about this?

Any other information you think might help is highly appreciated.
