@jukeblam
Days!!! Amin oooo. Lol. Lol@rentals..by default, I found myself checking Google already oo lol..Thanx a lot. Will be sure to frontload all documents.

@jamson
Yesso.. Make I join the grant crew oo. Thanx bro. Unto medicals...It's like i will go with that iom clinic oo. I saw the email addy you posted, do they have a phone number pls? Do I need to get yellow card from port health first or is opv included in the cost of medicals at the clinic? Thanx

OPV is not included in the cost. Get it from port health for 1k. The doctor asked us for the yellow card and we 'tewo' for him, he said we should make sure it's done before we finally travel (and we nodded several times saying, ''yes sir''). So get it before u start uploading docs for visa app so the CO won't ask u for it thus delaying ur grant.

Am really really happy Received ITA today! I bless God...

Congrats sis! Unto payment things sharpally and join the Grant crew. Be sure to follow Jukeblam's advice.

Oga Jukeblem, thank u for my CDR too oooo. Your inputs were priceless.

Vinsmuft:
Guy, hope they have POS for payment at IOM. The money wey I go need to pay dey plenty

Lol....You can make your payments ahead by sending to their bank account which will be communicated to you via email.

Rett0:
Thanks for this info. Please do you have an idea on the bill for children?

jukeblam:
Children don't require PCC; it's for persons aged 18 years and above.

However if you meant how much medicals cost, I believe Jamson can help with a current cost at IOM; I did mine at Fatayi Williams around April 2016- I assume prices would have changed since then.

See the table below

Hi Jamson, Bnimz and other PTE legends in the house......please how were you guys able to improve your pronunciation?

I have been using some apps to convert my speeches to text since that is what PTE does. I'm afraid they've not been picking more than 40-50% of my speeches correctly, is this not a failure already in PTE speaking?

Please I need your advice and guideline.

Bnimz, where are you ooo? I have little to say to be honest. All I did was to mimic American accent please thrash those speech to text software, because they will only succeed in demoralizing you. Make sure to digest all E2 PTE video lessons on YouTube and abide by their instructions. While it is good to work on your pronounciaton, don't do that at the expense of other important pointers like vocabulary, grammar, content and form as they are very crucial to your 20 points

I am happy to provide further help

Hello house,

Update!!!EA Positive assessment landed on Tuesday the 10th-Hubby was assessed as a PE.1 down 3 to go.

PTE prep loading...

@Jamson,Iceberg anyone who Front loaded medicals i urgently need a step to step guide on how to go about this because i no dey waste one more second than i have to.

- I will also appreciate recent update/contact for Naija PCC.

Keep pushing people,We will get there.#Optimistic

Congrats on the positive assessment! I assume you have submitted EOI by now. If not, please join the queue sharply. Don't joke with ur 20 pointer PTE if it is needed. Medicals can be done ahead if you are sure ITA will arrive within a year of health clearance. As for PCC, just go Alagbon, na from the gate dem go start to dey drag u for patronage. 5k go do per head. All the best with the rest of the journey.

Cecegal:
Thanks for this Jamson,

Please did you front load medicals?I need advice on this.TIA

Yes, I did. In fact, I went for my Medicals before I got ITA. All you need do is create an immiaccount, start a new application, choose health declaration and follow through with the form filling till you are able to generate a HAP ID. This ID must be generated uniquely for the Principal applicant and also for other dependents. Book an appointment with an authorized clinic, depending on your location and present your ID(s) for medical exam. Feel free to seek further clarifications

sesal:
Hello House,

Any advise on which Clinic to use for medicals between Fatayi Williams and IOM Health centre (Ikeja) will be appreciated. CO just gave go ahead for Medicals.

IOM is the bomb. They are very organised and friendly. Paid N42,800 for myself and same for wifey. Xray join for the money ooo. Not so with Fatayi Williams where I think there is an extra charge of 5k for Xray plus the stress of going to St Nicholas. Meanwhile, IOM is along Isaac John Ikeja while the other is on the Island.

You can alternatively use monumaemeze@iom.int

Graceee:
I think I qualify for both.

Just that? Ok oo. If you are truly qualified for EA, by all means, go for it and save Vetassess money for the nearest future. I assure you, spending just began ooo....this parole go vibrate your pocket small

Graceee:
Hello family

pls can one apply to two different assessing body if one qualifies for both like EA and VEStassess at the same time??

If you are that rich, why not? If I may ask, why would you want to do that?

SUJYDEE:
NGN 70 difference is a very good offer o bros, you will hardly see who will deduct NGN 20-50 for you o except the person is your personal person.

Gbam!!!!! Even personal person no dey send again. Na abokifx dem dey follow

SegunWamiri:
That is high na. That's just about 70N different from black market

A whole 70 bucks?? (didnt even realise it would be that much) Wait wait wait....are u guys pulling my legs or you are not familiar with the forex thingy?

Thks @Jamson,
I am aware of these means of transfer, but the exchange rate is killing. It'll be a lot cheaper to just pay naira here while the equivalent is settled abroad.

Killing ke? I am not sure you are aware as you claim oo.

Last time I checked, they exchange 1USD for NGN 412. Including the charges (NGN18,375) on the transaction might just push it to something around NGN432. Not even Santa Claus can give it to you lower than that

tyot:
Hello house,
Happy new year. Pls I need assistance with payment. I want to send 1200AUD for skill assessment to friend in Oz to make payment and send documents on my behalf (documents DHL already). He doesn't have a Naira account where I can pay the equivalent to ease the total cost. I'l appreciate any help from the house, someone who I can deposit naira equivalent to, while AUD equivalent is paid to colleague in Oz.
Thanks.

This is what I did to pay for my EA assessment. Walk up to any bank (preferably the one you have account with) and ask if they offer westernunion or moneygram outbound service. If yes, provide your passport or any other national ID and deposit the send amount in your account. Also provide the name, city and country of residence of the beneficiary. The beneficiary will pick the cash up at any western union or moneygram merchant outlet as long as they provide a valid Id bearing receive name. The con here is that there is a limit to what you can send (between 300k and 330k per quarter).

bolaobby:
You can do the registration by yourself and choose the preferred centre for the exam. There some bank that still allow payment up to 300USD with your naira debit card like Stanbic IBTC bank. The time that the voucher goes for 45k in Lagos and 55k at Laidera Consulting in Ibadan, the actual fee was 38k when you do the registration yourself although you can't make the payment with bank like GTB because the money is above 100USD.

Can't recall when anyone on this forum has successfully paid for PTE using a Naira card.

OzyMigrant:
Your calculation is correct but might not be realistic,

I waited until I got someone when I was going to submit my EA application.....guess how much I saved, a whopping 150k!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to one blessed person here on this forum.

The calculation may not be far from the truth because the only tangible offer I got while trying to pay for ITA was 350 per AUD. I ran for my dear life and settled for USD which came in piece meal that eventually added up. The reality is that you might only be able to see people help with Naira AUD swap when you are paying for assessment as the amount required is chicken change compared to amount required for ITA. People rarely send the huge amount of money required unless they have an ongoing capital project here in naija

ajiifixing:
I went to Laidera (Ibadan) just now and was told its 65k!!!

Any other place to write in Ibadan?

Chimo!!!! Buy from UKEAS Lagos and you can still write at Laidera with the voucher.

Phlunter01:
Thank you very much. Amen.
I attended FUTA oh
Agricultural Economics and Extension

Congrats on the newborn

ajiifixing:
Wow,
I am touched by your kindness. Much appreciated.

The almighty VETASSESS is the assessing body here and I hear they won't even look at your documents without at least one year experience in the occupation you are nominating. Also as SA (another wahalish state when it comes to 190) don put am under special conditions, to say the odds are high is an understatement. I suggest you should work with the other occupations you were looking at against next immigration year, that reduces your odds significantly. Hopefully, policy reviews will Favour you in the coming year. Nothing stops you however from prepping your documents for assessment to save time.

SegunWamiri, thanks for the insight....

I read Library studies and I have never worked a day as a librarian.
Do you fancy my chances of applying as one (South Australia is still open for high points).My IELTS IS LSRW 8.5,7,7,7,
I just want to work on any glimmer of hope I can have.

I tried to find this on SA's list with no success. Kindly drop the ANZSCO code here so I can check further. I am happy to help explore this with you.

[quote author=Brigz post=52689248][/quote]Bnimz, your people have come ooo....

Oya deal sharply...lolzz

ajiifixing:
Bro,
you are an engineer joor. with CDR you are ok.


I am a Banker but not an Engineer. I read Library Studies (Undergraduate) and have MBA. Worked all career life in the Bank (Marketing/Branch Management).
Couldn't seem to be able to find something to hook up to on ANZSCO currently.
Can you advise?

Tough one!! Must confess, my strength is in the Engineering field and my advice is limited (and subject to further verification) on other occupations.

However, having looked through SOL and CSOL, I saw the following

Sales and Marketing Manager 131112 AIM

Corporate Services Manager 132111 VETASSESS

Finance Manager 132211 CPA/ICAA/IPA

I think they (all on CSOL) are occupations you should look at and see if any is worth exploring. Just do a little research into the states sponsoring them. Then depending on your number of years on the job, some of the assessing bodies might overlook your first degree and focus on your years on the job. I even think your MBA might be an added advantage here (if it doesn't cut off too much from your years of experience)

I am sure the bosses can help with further advice.

Still Available

I can do a 1m last

ajiifixing:
I mean someone who works in a Bank who did not necessarily read Banking or any other related courses except MBA.

Ok. I work in a bank (IT Network and Comms). I assessed under EA and my assessment outcome was fantastic. 2 of my 3 career episode was based on work experience (inside the bank ooo).

EOI....check
ITA....check

Long story short, it doesn't matter where you work. It is what you are doing or have done (as reflected in your reference, resume and episodes, if you are an engineer).

Are you a banker?

mamajaz:
Now these other set of people are the CEOs in diverse capacities here, CEO bellong who just conferred his chieftaincy title ( Oga bellong) on Bnimz last two weeks, Bnimz gangan( Mr PTE-A himself), Jamson ( jack Bauer of this thread), sunvick, sister catchwind4rmkd, ifexsco, ibiyemiara, cuteannie, iceberg, Kikiade,e.t.c. please, call them they will answer you while you are yet typing...

sunvick:
Guy, if truly you got this score without preparation, oga Bimz has just said the qualifying word for it.

That's not what Bnimz is saying ooo. He was wondering why on earth would someone waste money and time to write PTE without 'one minute preparation'. E be like say the Bros don hit 75 points already and he wan find 10 join am to enter 85
