Imagine! Montreal! I'm sure if it's Ottawa/Sydney/Accra, this would not be a problem. They're used to Nigerians and our financial system. The Montreal VO is probably not used to that kind of investment funds for PPR. Na wa o. Rejection letter updated on the account? What if you didn't check your account in a week or 2? That VO is so harsh! Anything Quebec just puts me off!

Anyways, I really tried to find the direct email online, I couldn't. I have asked in some whatsapp groups, someone said that VO has no direct email. Is there anyone here who had Montreal VO, used Stanbic MF and got PPR? Or knows the VO direct email?

In the meantime, good that you're liquidating it already. Once you get all the docs, a CSE directly to Montreal VO is your best bet for now. Then send the same email to CIO Sydney, add that you're sending

Montréal
1025 St-Jacques
Montréal QC H3C 1G8

My file was once at Montreal visa office. I was given this fax number by a CIc agent to contact Montreal.
I hope it works. I never used it though.

You can try it @ gretop

I just tracked mine and it is ready for pick up. When did you submit your passport?

Hello.

Please for those who submitted passport at vfs after approval. how days did it take to get the passport back.

I have tried to track it online but not going through. Is there a way to track.

Thanks.

Yes. It will be evaluated by WES.
very fast, no verification because it's foreign.

Then you can claim 2 or more certificate

HENRIETTAPOWER:
Hello everybody

It seems there is no newbie in this thread o

Please will WES evaluate my acca advanced diploma in accounting and business?

Am I qualified for 2 or more certificates

Someone should please answer meeee

If you have your ECA and ielts result ready enter the pool now as spouse accompanying with your crs score to make up for the tie breaking rule.
Nobody can tell IRCC can perform wonders anytime!

Once your spouse ielts result is out update your profile immediately then wait till her ECA is out.

You might be lucky to get ITA self depending on her ielts result before ECA.

I hope it helps.

blazetitov:


Thanks for this response.

I have a similar case. If i apply alone, that is; stating my spouse as non-accompanying, my CSR score is 464, but once i include her, it drops to 446. Her school just sent her transcript to WES yesterday and WAEC is still dozing. She will be writing ielts on 1st of August. Already missed the last 2 draws. Please what is the best approach to go through this as time is of the essence? What are the implications for her coming over if i enter the pool and state that she is non-accompanying.

OR is it better to go into the pool at 446 and update as her documents get ready?

Good day house... Please I need a well detailed advice from the gurus here. I currently study in Germany. Just started however in this Summer April. Masters in Mathematics. However I have a Masters degree in Mathematics already from Unilag. I'm married without kids. But presently I'm finding the Masters program tough here coupled with the fact that I must work to pay bills. I was planning to bring my wife to Germany on a reunion visa and the process is hell. And it wouldn't make sense for both of us to be on a student visa here in Germany. Now, I have resided to relocate to Canada with my wife who's still in Nigeria. I need a clear process to go about this. I also want to ask that if my wife goes for the ielts and file for the family, will my MSc count since am under her. And in all what's the best way to go about this. I seriously need your contributions. Thanks in advance

Welcome on board.
You and your wife need to make cic.gc.ca your friend first and read well about the whole process.
Page 1 is full of information that you need from start to finish.

Little hint:
Your wife can be the PA and you be under her (if she qualifies more in terms of age, work experience and qualification)
You can add point to her being PA by taking ielts and evaluate your master.

Goodluck!

100% possible if you qualify. I am FSW Inland applicant. Still on study permit though.

Waiting for PPR.

Check if you meet the requirement and you are good to go. Goodluck

sleekysoft:
Hello Guys,
Please i have a quick question, is it possible to apply for express entry in Canada while being a student??

To all new members and those asking questions already answered. Use the SEARCH button on top. type the key words say " HND WES". Go to the section part select "travel". All posts relating to the key word will come up. Then start reading. Read, Read Read. You will surely find answer.

I hope it helps.

Iyalla2:
Good day gurus in the house. Pls I need an advice. I am the PA. @ 42 this month. ECA on going and preparing for Ielt Exams. No Masters degree but hoping to get 2 or more cert. ie. With spouse Bsc, HND. Mine HND & PGD all directed to IQAS for evaluation. But the challenge is my CRS score which is still staggling at 398 so I desperately went and paid WES to evaluate my Professional Cert and you know with WEAC wahala! and all the money involve am still meditating. But if it would not be of any help to add more points to the existing one.....biko how will i get a refund from WES? since I av not yet sent my doc to them.
Pls what else can I do to boost my CRS points because as it stands now no going back. God bless you all as you respond to my situation. Cc: Topmamen, Hanna007, Stancils etc. Thanks.

I will answer base on my experience.
Since you have started with IQAS you don't need WES. Wes would have been the best option for you initially if you dont mind the waec stress. But now with IQAS just forget WES, mail WES to cancel your application and get your refund. I dont know the cancellation policy though.

HND and ND alone with WES equals 2 or more cert.
Bsc +HND + ND equals 2 or more cert.
Bsc +Hnd + pdg equals 2 or more cert.

So why the stress with WES again when you will have same point.

complete your evaluation with IQAS since you have started already. You will claim 2 or more cert.

Only master can guarantee higher point.

My study permit is not done until Dec 2020.

As a matter of fact, they just issue me a work permit valid till 2020 as well.

They just didn't want to issue ...had nothing to so with my permits ...

This is really painful. God will make a way. I will just advise that people should consider PR if they qualify. It is far better than SOWP in my opinion.

flosk:


It is not equivalent to a one year diploma. If you want a one year diploma, go for Cima certBA. It will give you one year. Confirmed

ACCA advanced diploma is equivalent to 3 years BSC. I did though in 2017. I am not sure there should be any difference now

Chicagomum:
There is no issue the transcript has been sorted out. Just that ICES said I have to wait for another 12 weeks. Started this process on the 17th of November 2018. They just informed me that they did not get the transcript second week of Feb 2019. I was able to resend it on the 11th of February and they said I have to wait for another 12 weeks!

Should I switch to WES now? just confused. Come May we loose 5 Marks and drop to 437.

Hubby is considering applying alone...

I think you should send them mail and express your dissatisfaction. I believe God will favour you.

starting another process with WES might be an option if you can afford it. Also remember verification issue except you have someone standby to assist you. U can send me PM.

Chicagomum:
Hello All,

Please help o. Started my ECA with ICES in November 2018. Sent an email to ask if they got my credentials and they said yes only to come back to me last week after 11 weeks to tell me they had not gotten one Transcript and as such I have to wait for another 12 weeks proceasing period!


Thank you.

finally finally. it is ITA
God be praised

Finally my people. God did it

Ielts breakthrough on the 6th attempt

Have been struggling with listening since 2017.

It can only be God. I remembered I was in tears a day before the exam and all I was asking God was "GIVE ME A BREAKTHROUGH"

Some of previous results

LRWS: 6.5, 8.5, 7.5 7,
LRWS : 7.5 9, 6.5, 8,
LRWS: 7, 9, 7, 7

I can't remember others.

Then on the 5th Jan 2019. Right in the exam hall, I have a deep conviction that I am going to pass.

Then the result came: LRWS : 8 8 7.5 8

To all ielts hopeful
Never give up. Prepare and pray.

In my writing I included personal experiences and examples.

In listening I was not distracted and was very attentive. Though I got confused at one point. But God helped me.

It has ended in praise.

Please wat questions were you asked by the border officer in Canada before you were given your study permit?

not sure question is generic. But I was asked why am I here?

how do u intend to pay for school fees

the letter of admission and correspondence letter.

hope it helps.

Landing gist!!!!!.

Arrived Winnipeg safely by the special grace of God. Left Nigeria very early on thursday morning. Got to airport around 11pm and was checked in around 3am ( flight was 6am Air maroc). Make sure no liquid in hand luggage and be bold to answer all questions. ensure all bags are within expected weight.

immigration cleared ( naija and bribing). the man delayed me that I must give him something which I did not yield.
Took off and said bye bye to naija. Entertainment was fair but not fantastic as expected. slept off until first stop over- Casablanca. Was lodged for the waiting hours to second leg. Entertainment also ok and I relaxed well in the lounge.

Left Casablanca to Montreal and journey was smooth. Cleared at immigration Montreal. Got cleared and was issued study permit. hold all documents close to u ( don't put them in checked in luggage) - correspondence letter, admission letter, funding or tuition fee receipt e.t.c.

flew air canada to winnipeg from Montreal .

Canada is a beautiful place. Wishing all TRV hopefuls good news; landed students successful stay, hopeful applicant be determined.

It will end in praise.....

Helo great people.

Please for those that did B1/B2 visa renewal through drop box recently, How many working days did you get your passport back.

Please it's urgent.

Thank you.

Quick Update.

I sent an email to embassy on the 8th August explaining why I need my passport back as soon as possible. I also attached support document to proof this.
I got a response from them yesterday that my passport is not ready due to staff constraint and high volume of application.
Got a call this morning from embassy that my visa is ready and I can pick up my passport on Monday.
