Please Advice oooo Good People of NL

You can write and attach a notarised letter with your JD and relevant information, also include appointment letter, payslips, bank deposit showing salary deposits etc

See Topsmamen's post

Topsmamen:
Lol@the bolded. Your boss tho

Well, no worries. You can write the reference letter yourself on plain paper and notarize it. Ensure you include your work hours, period worked (from/to dates), salary, job title/description and most importantly, ensure your responsibilities match the NOC you are claiming work experience for and take care not to write it verbatim. Also include other supporting documents such as your ID card, employment letter and/or promotion letters, pay slips, your salary account showing your salary payments etc.

See this post to get an idea of other documents you could submit.

For Ontario.

As a new driver without a Nigerian license or experience, you would have to start from scratch. Get your G1 first then proceed to G2. You can attend a driving school to get classroom and on-the-road training which gives you the chance to take your G2 test after 8 months (tip: attending a government recognized driving school can reduce your insurance quotes) . If you choose not to attend a driving school, the earliest you can take the G2 test is a year after the G1. If you’re interested in getting a car, you cannot drive with G1, most insurance companies won’t even sell insurance with G1 (there are always exceptions) but you would have to get the G2 before you can drive.

Please my people help me chuck mouth for my matter abeg.
I have a brother that have started collecting all necessary documents for his forthcoming ITA but to his outmost surprise, their HQ office sent them a mail that HR will no longer give reference letter for Canada processing and that no supervisor must give reference letter on plain paper again(is like they have made investigation how why there has been massive resignation in their company of recent).

So how to do? Way out.

Na wah oh, see people looking for jobs all over the country, bad belle people don't want others to create space for them. Isit by force to work again

Upton:
Please I am in a Dilenma. I have 3 years work experience and I recently got an ITA.
However, I am seriously considering declining the ITA.
Firstly, I worked 1 year and 4 months at a startup company where I was paid by cash and I did NYSC at a Military establishment. Now my challenge is, I have no payslip or proof of payment from my employer that paid cash. In addition, the military establishment has refused to give me a reference letter, stating they don't give ex corpers reference letters since I wasn't employed by them, rather I served the country in their facility, even though they were paying me. Now I am left with just 10 months experience that can easily be proven.

Can I decline my ITA, wait till i complete one year in my current job, fill a new or edit my Express entry form using one year experience? Will this backfire in the future, especially as I filled three years already?

I am seriously considering this because when I goggled the name of the startup company online, i did not find any trace, they have no online presence at all and considering I don't have any proof that they paid me cash, it would be easy for anyone to doubt their existence; coupled with the challenge I am facing getting a reference letter from where I served. I think it's just too much drama.

Can the house please advise me, if this is the right decision.

If the start-up is willing to write a ref letter for you, stating you were paid in cash, it shouldn't be a problem. You'll just attach whatever documents you have to prove you worked there, like your letter of appointment etc. I'm sure CIC will know how to conduct their own searches concerning the company. Besides if they're registered, there's a likelihood they'll be on the CAC public search portal. It's not a crime to be paid in cash, A number of people have gotten PPR with cash payments here

As for the military establishment, if you can get a reference letter from NYSC instead, stating you were posted there, you can also attach your posting letter, bank statements showing salary deposits from them and write an LOE stating why you could not get a letter, I think you'll be fine

If you want to keep your application simple and stick to just one job that'll be easier to prove, then you'll have to decline this ITA and edit your profile. Hopefully your points don't drop lower than the draw scores at the time you'll be clocking one year at your current job

I don't know about the implications of editing your profile at this stage, but I read somewhere that at some point whatever changes you make will also be stored.

URGENT!

If I have all the money I need for POF in my dollar account, do I still need to get bank statement of my naira or salary account (no money in the naira/salary account).

And by the way, I have finally gotten my POF! Yippee!

Congrats dude, this is good news. I think the dollar account is enough, just have the right LOE/docs to explain any bulk transactions

Yabi:
Hi Jenny,
Thanks for replying.

I intended submitting the application right away, but I’m second-guessing myself because my principal occupation now is Lawyer;

and I don’t have 1 year continuous work experience in the field.

Hence my wondering whether to just wait and acquire 1 year continuous work experience in August. And then rather submit my application in August.

For the LOR, all will be fairly easy to obtain in CIC format.

If you have everything ready and you're sure the paralegal NOC is under the eligible codes, I think you can go ahead with it. Getting your permanent residence is paramount now, your work experience can go into personal history for now. Maybe it'll be useful later, but you're going to be going through a whole different process with the bar exams, articling etc if you're going to practice in Canada.

Yabi:
Hello all,

Please I have 1 year work experience as a paralegal (2013-2014)[NOC 4211];

and 10 months as a lawyer (2016-2017)[NOC 4112]; following which i left for school;

I resumed work in August 2018-till present.

Is it possible to just use the work experience as a paralegal for my express entry application;

Or I should just wait till August 2019 and apply solely with 1 year work experience a lawyer?

Thank you.

When are you submitting your application? I suggest you use the one that would be fairly easy to prove. Which one will you be able to obtain the reference letter in CIC format? In other words, which one will be less of a hassle?

Goodmorning gurus in the house. I want to in all palpable sincerity apologize for being a prodigal son, I have been here before, but left to pursue study visa, because I would love to have Canadian Msc degree. It is now obvious that it is more expensive and cumbersome for me to go through that route.

Please I need to evaluate my Credentials. I graduated from University of Benin with a Doctor of Optometry degree (2014) and I want to use WES to evaluate. I currently have both my Certificate and Transcript( I got the transcript indirectly through a sch a applied for Msc).

In the WES site it is stated tht I send 4 things: WAEC, NECO, CERTIFICATE and Transcript.

Should I send only Certificate or both Certificate and Transcript and ignore WAEC and NECO?
I intend to send it myself to save cost using FAX, should I go ahead?
I hv a relative in Canada that will receive a copy of the ECA, should I use their standard mail or use a courier to deliver it to him?
hope they wont raise an eyebrow if I send my transcript to them myself since UNIBEN dont usually issue transcript directly?

THANKS FOR YOUR EVER-HELPFUL comments and suggestions.

You cannot send it on your own or through your relative , WES will reject it if the envelope it comes in does not carry the school stamp across the flap. Why doesn't UNIBEN issue transcripts?

What about the verification, what if someone in the transcript processing unit decides to do you strong thing because the transcript didn't officially come from them to WES.

WES also requires WAEC or NECO, not both WAEC and NECO, for degrees obtained in Nigeria so you can't ignore it. The procedure for the WAEC process is on one of the express entry threads so just do a search

Canadaforsure:
Dear Family. Congratulations to all PPR recipients like Prof, Claire Jesusbaby and my own sweetheart, Ifeoma77( i believe its there already)

Please do i need to provide all my payslips even if i have worked more than 10 years. I can get a statement and high light all. I am waiting for my ECA . trying to gather Documents as i wait

If you get a reference letter in CIC format no need for payslips. If you're unable to get the letter, then 6months payslips should be okay. Then you can attach your statement also showing the salary deposits

DavidHume:
Pls is one chances slimmer wen one uses just bsc during registration on WES as MSC transcript is not ready yet. Or it carries equal wait. After registering on WES. How do I get waec to send my cert to WES and how long does it take. Wld really appreciate ur response.

Also I am not married yet but plan getting married at Oct\Nov. What do u think I shld do. Shld me and my said fiancee write ILtS together with my surname?

After reading through part 1 to part 7. I av started registration on WES and next is to start planing ow to write me ilts in April . pls is there any step am skipping?

Did you find anything about the CRS calculator while reading through part 1 to 7? Incase you didn't, if you calculate your points on the crs calculator it should tell you that you stand a better chance of getting ITA with your masters degree. What is the delay with getting your transcript?

As for your WAEC, if you just use the search bar above, you'll see the process.

For now, you're still single so you and your fiancee cannot write IELTS with your surname yet. She has not done change of name and cannot do so until after you are married.

Please calm down and do your research so you won't waste time and money. You won't regret it

hapiboy:
Please any expert opinion would be appreciated.

My wife is the principal applicant. As a spouse, out of my 10yrs working experience more than 5yrs is from my company (self employed). I would like to know if it's OK for me to add those years I have been on my own. As for the documents required to back it up I think I can provide them. I just want to know if it's a wise course to use a self employed experience.

Tnx

I am not an expert but since your wife is the principal applicant, no need over complicating the application.

whiteFOX:
Greetings to the elders in the house,

I am new here and i must commend the selfless handles for the guide and generous assistance. I am here for help too.

I went the student route last year but was denied for 5 different reason, all of which pointed to the fact that the VO isn't convinced i'll be back after my program. So painful ehn!! even after i payed my fees in full.

I expressed my frustration and broken heart in the student forum then, and someone advised i go for the EE program. I made my own little research, coupled with the full support my cousin (PR in canada) is giving me.

All CRS simulation i ran on CIC website keeps me at 410.

To all the handles in this forum, help a brother please...

Don't know which NOC my JD falls

IELTS exam slated for 27-04-2019 MOD

WES ECA underway(started since nov)

What else can i do to bosst my score

Profile

1. 26 years of age by July

2. 2 yr+ work experience (E-channels Operation/ Banking Industry)

3. Bsc. Stattistics

4. ECA with WES almost complete

5. IELTS exam by april


All contributions are welcome

I humble oooooo my people.

I think you should let your work experience get to 3yrs, then you can either write TEF exams or get a masters degree to increase your points

I don't know about the NOC code but maybe you can post your job description and I'm sure someone will help with it

Topsmamen:
It will definitely raise questions. You’d need to explain the lump sum. Do a gift deed to attest that you were given the funds by your sponsor.

Won't this be an issue? Even if he/she got a gift deed before submission and did not disclose this in the application, why is the money not still in the account. It may raise red flags now to start talking about gift deed and explaining lump sum deposits when it wasn't used in the first place. If they used an account and the money is no longer there, what they should be showing is why the money is no longer there. For example did they do a fixed deposit? Treasury bill? Etc I think it would be better to submit one of these certificates as proof of POF than to start doing a gift deed when PPR is around the corner

CanadasGOAT:
its ghost update dont worry PPR is around the corner

Patiently waiting

Ifeoma77:
Your application is haunted, a ghost is now resident
You have every reason to hope

Lol, no be small haunted.

Hard girl hard girl, small hope and my heart wants to fall out of my chest. So I'm 5 months post AOR tomorrow, been checking my account in case the message doesn't come into my mailbox. Logged in yesterday and saw application/profile updated instead of submitted that is usually there. There was no update in the account sha, and by the time I logged out again it had changed to submitted. Abeg, does this count as 'ghost update' too? Abi the wait is just messing with my head

jiasemota:
Evening house. Have a question.... M a medical doctor... In respect to work experience for express entry, does house job or NYsc count as work experience. Thank you

Yes, I think they both do. That's two years experience, one year each

ans123:
All these 'am' crew, please it is 'I am" . If you are going to write IELTS you need to start knowing the basics.

Lol sofry sofry

Zinnyk:
Good morning house,can someone help out with this my calculation request, I keep getting less than 400 CRS with no points for my work experience. Thanks.

You have not given enough information. However, if you're going to be the primary applicant, your age is not a positive for your application, except you're going through the PNP route. Let's know your wife's age and work experience, so you can decide if she's in a better position to be the primary applicant.

Greatlady234:
How is it different, please enlighten me

Skilled trades require a different evaluation from the bodies in charge of those trades in Canada, WES and the rest are mostly for educational credentials for the federal skilled workers application. The information is on the CIC page on federal skilled trades application. Both of them are still under express entry

Greatlady234:
She has several certificates. Wes should do right? She just wants to be sure so no money is wasted and things are done right from the beginning.

If you're talking about a skilled trades application, that's a totally different ball game. But if you're talking about express entry, then WES is generally okay, except in specific cases that require specific evaluations.

Greatlady234:
Hello everyone. Please does anyone have an idea on the body (credentials evaluation) In charge for a stylist?...asking for a friend

Does the stylist have a degree? Or are there other qualifications peculiar to stylists?
