The seniors in the house kindly advise. CRS with spouse is 441 and without spouse is 455, is it advisable to do spouse unaccompanying as cut off has reduced to drop or should we still hope that ot will drop soon. Hubby doesn't mind as he doesn't even plan to stay in Canada yet. Any major disadvantage of unaccompanying spouse?

I have considered this but trust me, it is better you all go together. The process of getting them over there is tedious

Hi Chief. Can you give me an idea of the cost implications of evaluating BL and LLB with WES? How much have you spent so far? WAEC verification and law school transcript in particular. I'm thinking up my contingency plan should IQAS delay or mess up for any reason.

Hello boss, asides the customary WES fee, I have spent the following on WES ALONE so far:

1. WAEC- 28,000
2. UI TRANSCRIPT: ABOUT 22,000
3. LAW SCHOOL TRANSCRIPT: 34,000

I think like me, you should make WES your contingency plan. One never knows with IQAS...

Daratun:
This long wait from ICES is killing since November. I'm presently thinking of forgetting about them and registering for WES today. For those who have used WES, I read on their website that ICAP is already included in the ECA fee, how true is this pls? Apart from IRCC, I also want them to send my report to the body regulating my profession in Canada. When i tried to select another body for the ECA to be sent to, my professional body was not on the list.Those with experience, how do I go about it pls?

I thought I heard ICES are fast?

Nice to see lots of people getting their PPRs... hoping we all have good news at the end of the journey too. I wrote IELTS on Saturday (My first attempt) and I am keeping my fingers crossed. Having my credentials assessed by both WES and IQAS. IQAS has been on my case since February and not updates from them as of yet, so I am pursuing the WES alternative too (Assessing my LLB and BL certificates). .Assessing my wife's Access Diploma in Law and BSC Economics with ICES.

Hoping to get really good news in the next two months so i can dive into the pool headlong

Hello people, Lots of confusing information and I'll appreciate some clarity.

My wife has a 'Access Diploma' in Law from Lead City University, as well as a BSc Economics from the same school.

For the sake of ECA, would that count as '2 or more certificates'? Some people have said only Post Graduate Diplomas count.

Thank you

I am o. Infact, I had paid for WES before i heard about IQAS

Eraytee:
if you are not a lawyer, IQAS is not advisable to use.

I'll try to keep calm, if not I'll just pay ICES and get assessment over and done with

Eraytee:
you are not alone that's the trend for IQAS, you will have to take a good chill pill for them and focus on other aspect of your application process. dont worry they have received it. just hope for the best.

IQAS is freaking me out. I sent my application to them via FEDex 3 weeks ago while my University (University of Ibadan) sent my transcript upper week and it got delivered on Valentine's day. Yet, they won't acknowledge receipt of my application

I have a little question please. I am a Lawyer and my LLB Degree is being assessed by IQAS, IELTS comes up in March. I want to assess wifey's credentials (She has a Diploma in Law and a BSC Economics). However, she told me her Diploma program was for just one year. Would that satisfy the 2 Certificates (Diploma + Bachelors Degree) part or do I just assess her BSC alone?
