please those who used Treasury Bills as POF, did you also have to submit SOA/a letter from your bank showing average balance? Or is the Treasury bills alone sufficient in the case where a gift deed accompanies it?

cc santino1, kontagious ... anybody biko

Yes you have to include all documentation (SOA, Gift deed etc.) so far as the amount has been with you for less than 6 months

Can someone please help answer this question? Thanks

Good day all, my sister has a BSc degree from Nigeria and IATA Diploma in Foundation in Travel and Tourism (Distance Learning) awarded by IATA Training and Development Institute in Montreal. I will like to ask if these two can be classified as "Two or more cerificates, diploma or degree". And since the diploma was awarded by a Canadian body is there a need to do an ECA for it? Thanks

i had deficiencies of 4 courses, so i was given option to take courses and exams from a list of schools. i was then assigned FE exam.

If you dont have deficiencies, and you have 4 years of work experience...your applications can be approved straight away, then you become an EIT...

if you have at least four years of engineering work experience, including one year of engineering work experience gained in Canada under the supervision of a PEng/PGeo...then you become a PEng/PGeo too.

Unfortunately, i dont know any geo around me. i work in the Electrical Industry (Utility). The two Geo i know. One returned to Nigeria to continue his employment (mobil), and the other moved to materials testing (Soil, concrete, asphalt -Civil), but I have come across profiles of Nigerian P.geologist on LinkedIn. Dont limit your networkimg to Nigerians alone.

1. If you have many years of documented work experience, all you would need to sit for is the law and ethics exam plus one year supervised training.

2. Yes..the 4 years count. But you still need one year Canadian experience without which you wont get the PGeo. This is the stage you need to network massively with people in your field, especially those working for smaller engineering or consulting firms since they have less bureaucracy in their recruitment process.

Thanks Salford1.

I have over four years as a Geologist in the Nigerian Oil and Gas industry with B.Sc. in Geology and M.Sc. in Applied Geophysics. I guess due to my lack of Canadian experience I am not eligible to apply straight for PGeo. Notwithstanding can I apply for Geoscientist-in-Training (G.I.T.) while im still in Nigeria?

NOC 2113 - Geologist

Please who knows the address I will send the passport, i want to use DHL courier

I plan to settle in Alberta or Ontario and my occupation is Petroleum Geologist. Since functioning as a Geologist requires getting registered as a Professional Geoscientist (P.Geo.), I want to ask what is the possibility of registering with Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA) from Nigeria. And also between Ontario and Alberta which has a better prospect for a Petroleum Geologist in terms of job availability.

Raise a CSE and also you can send a mail using the email addy

esosa4real:


CPC-CTD-OTTAWA@CIC.GC.CA

Like i suggested earlier, send both cse and email appealing to them and you should attach an evidence that you have applied for Fbi pcc....I don't know what evidence will suffice. Let those who have requested it chip in.

Can i use the same email to inform them of recent job change too?

Please can someone help out with these questions

lumzy1:

Finally submitted my application today. AOR 13th June. Now the waiting begins

Ok thanks.

yes u should include it in your educational hx and choose "not completed" abi na "no degree awarded"...something along that line .
no redflags.

I want to ask if it is advisable to include my Part-time Msc (i am not claiming point the Msc) under Post-ITA education and personal information as ive been on it for the past five years (Unilag wahala). Hope it wouldn't raise any flag? I'm concerned the omission might be regarded as misinterpretation.

sehawale:


Thanks for your response. But I just signed in to my account now and I could not see where to upload additional documents. Has anyone noticed this?

I also noticed that last week but on checking this morning the option box for additional documents is there. Recheck again to confirm if it shows on yours

Hello All,
On the POF issue, I want to confirm if there has been any case of request for the statement of account of the person gifting the funds. I aggregated the funds and sent it to one person who now wrote a gift deed for me.

boldinc:
You can take it out of employment and add it to personal history. That way, you will not need to get a reference letter... As long as you do not need it to add to your work experience as you said.

Thanks

Hello All, Is it ok to remove NYSC from work experience after ITA (this will not affect the years i'm claiming for work experience, as i have more than 3 years in another company)? How does one get reference for NYSC if the place of primary assignment isn't willing to give one? (I have call-up letter, posting letter and ID card)

Hello All,
Concerning the required POF, my parent will give me the required amount as a gift deed, but I want to confirm if can I put the required POF in a fixed deposit account?

Hello Peeps,
Finally got my IELTS EOR yesterday after over 12 weeks, my result was upgraded from LRWS 87.576.5 to 87.577. I updated my express entry profile, but I didn't see any improvement with my score, is this normal?
Also, are we to notarize all the scanned documents to be uploaded when submitting ITA.

Please, can i get a clarification on notarizing documents. Thanks

@dammysanmi, I did not get any mail, I called them to confirm if the EOR has been completed. It was after I got a confirmation that it was ready, that's when I went to their office.

dammysanmi:

Hi @lumzy, did you get a mail from them or you went directly to their office to check? My EOR request is just 8 weeks now, i'm wondering if it might be ready besides there is no platform for checking processed EOR on their website.

@House, is there any possibility of WES accepting a "in lieu of" document in place of certificate? Unfortunately i might not be able to get my MSc certificate from the school due to lapses on their part which will cost me a lot of points.

Yes I did

Fusion23:

After 24 hours you see the change ..hope you transmitted the new information and signed?

finally I got the results. my scores were upgraded....after 12weeks.

12 weeks is long. What was your score review? I am currently awaiting a remark for my writing and speaking (applied for EOR on the 24th of October).
