Joyuzo, Can you please list the document to be faxed to Iqas apart from transcript which the school will send directly. I know Degree or statement is one, what are the other things? Thanks for your expected feedback.

They are Five Documents.The Remaining Four includes: The Completed Signed Application form, Online Payment Receipt, Application Checklist and Proof of Name. All of the Required Documents are listed on their website ok.

dupyshoo:
I used my maiden name as principal applicant (yet to change my name) and there was no issue with it.
It is strange though that your marriage certificate has compound name as it is usually in your maiden name.

What I will advise is this: try and get the marriage certificate reissued. If you can't, use your maiden name and just include a LOE that only your court registry certificate has a different name (combination of your spouse name and your maiden name).

Thanks @Optionese @dupyshoo....I appreciate your responses. My Court Marriage & Wedding was in 2014, and I n first son applied same year for my uk visit visa and it was approved. I will go make Enquiry on the reissue as u adviced,but will ask hubby if he ok with the reissue?

@vcole @dupyshoo @40manlappy @optionese
Pls I need clarification on my marital status name.I am going to be the PA and I'm still using my maiden name after marriage,both my local and foreign certificate bears my maiden name and also my bank accounts I intend to use. Also my first intl passport and the recent reissue one I did last month both bears my maiden name, only of course my court registry certificate which bears a "compound name" comprising of my maiden+hubby name?
My Question now is, hope it won't pose any probs as regards my application. Thanks in advance for your responses.

obitee69:
Pls what practice materials are u using for reading and writing

You sure can use these sites, www.ieltsliz.com, www.ieltsbuddy.com,www.dcielts.com, www.ieltsforfree.com. Practice and Practice ok. All the best.

XX01:
The wait for IELTS is killing me. I didn't apply earlier for it because I wanted to understand the whole process. By the time I wanted to apply, the deadline had passed. Now I have to wait for the end of month. I don tire to dey practice.

Ahh bros,no tire ohh,keep familiarising ya self with All d Practice Questions,Tips,Techniques as more often as you can ok.I Shaka know wot am saying,before u know now June has ended n exam concluded.All d Best ok.

MummyJaygirls:
Yes it's correct

Finally.......they Replied me ohhh late in the evening yesterday.I Thank BabaGod ohh.Mind at Rest Now.Guess it's the 2nd Fax I Resent on 29th May that they finally viewed and replied. Thank U House for All your responses.

MummyJaygirls:
Sister calm down, they will acknowledge it. Someone used fax recently and it delivered, I don't think yours got lost. They've given u two weeks of which I doubt it would take up to that time.

thanks sis. I pray so. But I need confirm the fax number from you...the fax number I see after the fax is sent is +17804229734. Is this fine and ok. Becos I'm thinking maybe there is an error in the fax number or so. It's really quite strange with my fax?

Pls house,I'm really confused and worried with this repeated IQAS response concerning my faxed supported documents and how they claiming not to have seen nor viewed it.Anyways,I have sent my supported docs via post this week and my school notified me that hopefully the transcripts should get to IQAS latest Tuesday or I ring them.See below IQAS reply.......even after I faxed them again on Monday,29th May.

"""IQAS can confirm that both your online application and payment were received. As of June, 2017, no fax matching your name and application ID has yet been processed and recorded. As per IQAS’s standard notification policy, clients would receive only three status updates provided the particular document requirements are met (see below). If you are able to track delivery of your fax and have a confirmation that your package was delivered to the IQAS office, it is most likely here in line for processing and recording it in our system. IQAS does not confirm receipt of documents on the date of delivery as time is required to process, and record such document. If you have followed all the required document submission steps (outlined below), and don’t receive a confirmation email in the next two weeks, please contact the IQAS office. We are experiencing higher than normal application volumes and appreciate your patience while we process your mail.""""

Perhaps due to pressure, IQAS has changed the rules.@joyuzo I suggest you call IQAS for clarification. Considering all the pressure it won't be a bad idea to send it through NIPOST (people here have given great reviews) that way you have a back up plan . Also if you sent your documents on the 6th May, it's still too early to expect a mail

Thanks my sister and the house.I have refaxed my supporting documents and I'm also going to post them again today so be on safe hands.Will call my Sch and confirm transcripts delivery duration.

obitee69:
Wes has recieved my bsc cert thru fax. Thank God. E remain my transcript

Good bros.Im wondering if IQAS isn't accepting faxed supported documents anymore as they claiming in my case. Well,till I hear from them via call? God dey.

40manlappy:
I want to believe that IQAS is talking about transcripts. I sent all my documents via hellofax except the transcript which was sent directly to them by my school via courier and I had no issues. Same for many others on this forum.

Please call them tomorrow to clarify. Get your reference number handy to ensure a seamless interaction. Cheers

Looping: miella, Chordata

Thanks so much for all your speedy response.I really appreciate.I will surely give my school a call by morning and also call IQAS too.But I'm thinking of re-faxing my supporting documents again by morning,just in case? I guess it's fine too.This is surely going to delay my assessment results,although,I'm expecting my IELTS results on 7th June...Fingers crossed on that

Hello house,pls I need response on this issue I have presently from IQAS? I faxed my other supporting documents on May 6th via HELLOFAX and till now I'm yet to get a mail acknowledging they have received all my documents for the process from them,despite all my emails to them .They only claimed or confirmed that got my payment and online application?Confirmed from my Uk Sch dat my transcripts was sent to them on May 10th, and HELLOFAX confirmed to me via email that my documents were viewed by them on May 22nd.Below is their latest reply to my email.

"Please be advised that IQAS does not accept emailed or scanned documents either from clients or issuing institutions. IQAS accepts official, paper transcripts that confirm graduation, and which are sent directly by the issuing institution. Faxed documents, whether viewed or not, are not considered submitted for purposes of the application process. Please refer to the status updates outline below to clarify the document requirements."

Pls house advice on my next move. Thanks

When I retook mine early this year, sealable polythene bags were provided by the British Council staff. This was where I kept my phones and wallet and the bags were left in their custody. For the speaking test, I left the phones and car key in custody of their staff as well; in fact, you would be required to drop everything except your passport. There were no issues at collection.

I believe similar provision should be available for you too.

@dammysanmi Welcome bro

Thanks so much Bro,happy to hear this reply.Abit Nervous but I should be fine. Hoping for my IQAS assessment to be out soonest or ending.Nice Day E-Family.

emoch:
I emailed IQAS (lbr.iqas@gov.ab.ca) last week and got a reply.

Thanks for this email but pls can u confirm and resend as I tried and it said invalid address.

40manlappy:
Thanks bro

cc: ajiifixing, Jumdah20

Hello Bros,pls I need confirm about our personal belongings at test venues and how we could safeguard them.Im Having My Speaking Test Today in Lagos n Other tests next Thursday. Success to All of Us Speaking today and writing next week. Gods Grace.

40manlappy:
Once you exceed the free pages, you either pay $0.99 for subsequent messages or create a fresh account with a different email address

Sorry about the cancellation, how did your hubby make payment for the test? Maybe that can give us an idea of what happened.

thanks bros,yes I did pay the $0.99 for the fax and it went thru. My hubby did use his GT Acct to make the transfer to British standard chartered account and we entered my Ref No and full Names Correctly. And I didn't get any payment confirmation but cancellation. But I intend going to their office first thing tomorrow morning.

40manlappy:
Congrats!

Be patient, before this time tomorrow, your profile should have been updated. Thankfully, we are 5 hours ahead of Canny, so it should have updated before tomorrow's expected draw. ITA loading

What is your CRS score?

Hello Bros,pls I need help on hehellofax as my documents exceeds the free pages?can I send them twice so they all go? Also,don't know what happened but British council cancelled my exams date for 25th as they claimed they didn't get my fee and my hubby did the transaction last Saturday 2days after I applied online? I'm confused here.

lavivaavril:
Joyugo it's a good thing you have someone on the inside. Pls disturb that person well! Don't solely rely on phone calls, go there. I've noticed that they might tend to attend mostly to people they see physically and keep posting others not there. Best of luck

Thanks my sister,ure correct,will go standby with the woman on Tuesday n I told her I got exams this month...IELTS will be in May .Naija n it's Govt Workers. God will help us.

lavivaavril:
I'm so happy with the rate ITAs are poring in. I'm planning on submitting my application this coming week, got ITA last week. My only headache was my hubby's passport which had about six months left but God showed up in our Favour and he was able to get a new passport in two days.

Congrats to all who just got ITA

Congrats on All the ITAs....I'm hoping to be in the pool before scores goes up. Pls how did you get your passports in just two days? Mine been there for over a week now and no response and I used a known officer.My IELTS is really delaying cos of this.

perks:
Hello house, please do I need letter of reference from present n all previous employers? Or just from employers you are claiming points for?

From the CRS calculator I got 460 points (with a possible 15 points in June for sibling in Canada). Registered wifey for ielts. Can't register mine cos no material to print passport since early March (useless immigration service. Mscheeww). Can't wait to dive into the pool now dat cut off is low. My target is to be out of this country by January 2018 by God's grace.

hmmm I'm also in the he same shoe as no passport to register for test but I'm hopeful they will get my ne out soon so I register n write my test cos hubby not ready for the test and I must give it all it takes to ace well.

joyuzo:
Thanks All for the Response.On It Asap.

Pls house, can I request for my transcripts and at the same time apply online n pay for my ECA,whilst waiting for my school to send transcripts to IQAS

40manlappy:
@joyuzo It has to be sent directly from your institution to IQAS. Don't attempt to send your own copy.

@MummyJaygirls, you missed the joke

Thanks All for the Response.On It Asap.

40manlappy:
Looks like a very good candidate for ITA. I suggest you evaluate your BA immediately, prepare well to write IELTS and dive into the pool.

If there are no major constraints like proof of fund, etc, you may not need to wait for the MA. No one can predict what the cutoff score would be once the PNPs start hitting the pool.

Bro,I want to process my IQAS,can I use my MSc student copy transcripts as I have it or request from my foreign institution? Thanks

40manlappy:
Finally, ITA arrived for my wife!

Just when we were gradually accepting the reality of waiting for the next draw, God showed us His favour. For a journey that started with our first IELTS in December 2014, we give Him all the glory.

Thanks to this wonderful e-family for the encouragement, kind words and support. May God grant all your wholesome hearts' desires in Jesus' name, Amen!

Like Bimpsy99 stated earlier, still feels like a dream...

Wow, Congrats to and wifey. U have been Great here as have been following up your supports and encouragements. I Pray to jump into the pool soonest after my exam next month...

behati:
Good day house, been a silent reader but hope to participate from now. I just got ITA and will be sharing my timelines below.

ECA- Nov. 2016: this was very fast as I submitted scanned copies of transcript and degree certificates, paid international courier fee to have WES send verification letter to my school via courier. Had someone who assisted with the verification in less than 5 days of the school receiving it. Everything took about one month.
IELTS: Jan 7th, collected result Jan 20. LSWR: 8.5, 7.5, 8,8.
EE pool: Created two profile on 21 Jan. I claimed 3 years experience in one and two years in the other as I have only completed two years in my current place of work, however, I have one year experience from a different company.
CRS scores: 474 and 449 respectively.
ITA: received on both profile on 8 Feb 2017. However, I accepted the profile with 449 as it may be difficult getting reference from my former employer.

I've been gathering all documents, and POF is basically the outstanding item. My sister will be transferring the money to me and I will appreciate if anyone can give me a sample gift deed.

Thanks

Congrats on your ITA....go to page 261 for the Gift Deed.

Hey guys,

I haven't been here in a long time, been too depressed to check, I submitted my application to vetassess on 10 October 2016, and since then, it has been one request after the other, at a point I just said, whatever abeg, I no do again. There's nothing vetassess did not ask for.

I am happy to say that I got my positive outcome today, I am so excited. Can't wait to proceed with EOI.

By my calculations;

Age - 30 points
English - 20 points
Experience - 5 points
Education - 15 points
Total - 70 points



Thanks to everyone

Congrats Bro,Success All the Way.

tyosho:
For a journey that started sometime in 2013,I'm very happy and so grateful to God that we received our 189 grant mail this morning.
A big thank you to BossLadyMo who was there from the very beginning and of course Sir Bellong who encouraged me when I was feeling overwhelmed at some point.To everyone who has responded to my enquiries at one time or the other,this is saying THANK YOU.
My family and I are getting set for Melbourne as I type.
The journey so far;
Applied with Vetassess as internal auditor in August or so 2013 and got a negative report after over four months.
Encouraged by another who's gotten his grant,we tried ICAA as external auditor in June 2014.After over 3months,they asked us to provide a corrected transcripts as the one we submitted omitted some courses.
Trust Nigeria institutions,we enter one chance trying to get a fresh transcript.
At this point,my Oga(principal applicant) say he's not doing again.He asked for his documents and money back from ICAA.Na there the journey terminate in 2014.
After plenty cajoling,prayers and pampering,hubby agreed to try again with Icaa in 2015.He Waka tire and spent money trying to get a fresh transcript which he now sent again to ICAA.
October 2015,we were positively assessed.We lodged Eoi with 60points(hubby wrote Ielts thrice by the way to get 7 minimum).
February 2016 he wrote Pte and we moved up to 70points.
When invite didn't show by May,he applied to ICAA with same documents and was positively assessed as accountant.
August 2016,we got four invites!!! 189 accountant and 189 external auditor.Then 190 accountant and 190 external auditor from Nsw.
We went with 189 external auditor and lodged on Aug 3rd.Uploaded all documents.
Then late August,there were issues with hubby"s X-rays and he was asked to do further X-rays.They still were not satisfied and asked for a sputum test.We were quite frustrated.
Finally on Nov 28th,his medicals were cleared.
On Dec 7th he was sent a health declaration form 815 to fill and submit.
Dec 22nd,we got our grant for the whole family.
Pls forgive any errors.I no fit modify

Wow.....Congratulations my sister, this is indeed Amazing. Great Success As you land.
