I'm applying as experienced professional, so i want to include details of my masters degree but its only one higher institution am able to add

rocoh:
You can only add ine institution as a graduate trainee. They are not expecting you to have a masters.

Please, how can i add more than one higher institution. After i add my Bsc, it is showing it thrice upon adding the msc its showing error. Did anyone encounter this error?

Hello all, I appreciate the good work you all doing on this forum. I am in a situation where i would need advise on what to do next. I recently applied for Victoria State Sponsorship for the second time and got rejected. Nominated occupation is Geologist (234411), Point 70. Want to ask what other route can I use to get state sponsorship since Geologist is under CSOL. Tasmania and Queensland both require either a family connection with the state or job offer which I dont have. With this its seems there isn't any other feasible options available.

I'm not sure if Nova Scotia PNP is currently open but i know the online application can be submitted.

Doggys:
hello house. someone made mention of applying to nova scotia,i want to confirm if their provincial nomination program is open now?Thanks

Hello guys,
I'm in the process of applying for Nova Scotia PNP, while filling the form i got to a stage where im asked the question "Tell us about how you see yourself living in Nova Scotia". Does anyone have the template of what should be in the content of my answer. Thanks

Hello all, Has anyone recently applied for PR visa 190 with Victoria State Sponsorship. Its bin up to twelve weeks that i applied to them and im yet to receive any news from them? Is this a normal occurence?

@Sftt: I got a positive assessment for my UI 4yrs Bsc Geology degree

sftt:
geology-4yrs-unilorin. The replied and still said that its associate the BSC fall into(na mail we still dey send each other oh, they never talk say make we appeal) .What is the way forward?

Manweysabi:
Congrats lumzy1... Please when did you lodge your application?

Your course is how many years in your school?

You should check Victoria website for their requirements

Thanks to everyone.

Application lodged on the 4th of August. My course was 4yrs from UI

The wait from VETASSESS is finally over. Got a positive assessment for my occupation this morning.

Pls Gurus in the house, what are the documents needed to apply for Victoria nomination (as a Geologist want to apply for subclass 190 visa )

bellong:
He can get a positive assessment depending on where he studied his geology. OAU is a four year geology degree and I got a positive assessment.

I think they have some selected universities that they treat their four year degree to be equivalent to an Australian bachelor degree.

@bellong, do u know if UI is among the selected universities?

mjlbabajide:
Submitted mine on the 7th of August. Transcript received on 9th and i was not requested to upload transcript. I sincerely hope we hear from them next week, because sincerely the waiting is very gangstar.

Submitted mine to VETASSESS on the 31st July, got a response from them on the 24th Oct, that i should provide evidence of payment during my NYSC which i uploaded last week. The waiting no easy at all

Congrats Zandora

zandora:
GLORY BE TO GOD. I'VE JUST GOTTEN PPR UNDER EXPRESS ENTRY!!

Please if you're still contemplating applying, don't give up. My application was by no means perfect but here I am, if I could do it then so can you. Goodluck!

P.S - Don't worry I'll still be here to answer your questions to the best of my knowledge

This is goodnews people! Saskatchewan has reopened their Occupation-in-Demand PNP for an extra 1000 people. Check the site and click on Application Guide, scroll to the end of the application guide to see the list of occupation if yours is there. Wish us the best.

What if my occupation (Geologist) is not among the list, is it advisable to still apply?

Yes im interested in VIC 190. I also qualify for VIC 189 from my calculation (im not sure how easy it is to get that). Based on my research Tasmania and Western Australia have geologist on their list, what do you think abt these regions. Im single and I have done IELTS, i score the required band score of 7 through out.
What is the next step while awaiting the assessment result?

mjlbabajide:
Nice to hear a fellow geologist is in the house. Are you also interested in the VIC 190 Nomination or NSW 489 Orana region nomination.

Are going alone or with family? well i hope u've done PTE or ielts already

Hello mozo and mjlbabajide,

Im also a Geologist awaiting the result of my assessment from VETASSESS, im hoping to get a positive result. my question is what are the things to get ready / documentation i can prepare for pending the time the result get out.

mozo:
Fastest processing time I have heard from someone regarding Vetassess is 6 weeks, even tho most people fall within the 12 week period.

zandora:
Ontario is open at the moment but they won't take you because you need to score a minimum of 400 to be considered. Alberta would have been your best get as that's where the oil is and seeing as you're a Geologist however due to the slump in oil prices it's uncertain if they'll open nominations soon. I think Saskatchewan is still open but I'm not too sure. Check out the link below, it's very helpful.

Thanks Zandora, I checked Saskatchewan PNP and discovered they didn't list Geologist as one of the in-demand occupation. Apart from the two provinces. which other options do I have for increasing my CRS.

Hello Everyone,

I submitted my application into the express entry pool last week and my overall CRS is 384. I would want to ask for advice on what I can do to further increase my score. I am a Petroleum Geologist by profession with five years experience in upstream industry. Which province is open at the moment that accept geologist or which will open soon? Thank you

Hello all, please does anyone know the process of fast-tracking B.Sc. degree verification with University of Ibadan (UI). WES sent my cert. since 13th April and UI is yet to respond. Will appreciate if anyone has gone through the process with UI to enlighten me the procedure. thanks

Thanks.

JesusDWay:
The implication is that you should be prepared to pay so much money for school fees if you wanna go via school. Also, from what I've been seeing recently, seem getting a PR is easier via migration programmed like EE than wanting to use school to stay back there, the kind of visa you get after school is post graduate work permit which won't afford you access to what a permanent resident will enjoy. It also usually have expiry date and like a friend of mine, he had to register and paid like 6kdollars for another programme so he can keep extending the visa. Infact, seem it's harder for those who are already there to convert even via express entry, than those applying from outside Canada. If your goal of entering Canada is to later settle there, I may suggest you follow EE through and through cuz, even if you want to school there as a permanent resident, you pay same school fees as an home student however, I won't also discourage you from trying school but be ready to pay. Finally, there's not gonna be any clash or suspicion from the Canadian authorities, they are two separate stuffs and you won't penalized for anything I believe. For school, you apply through Canadian embassy in Nigeria but for migration, it goes to Ghana

lumzy1:
Hello Everyone,
I want to know the implication of applying to both the express entry program and applying for masters degree program at the same time, because this is what I am planning to do incase either of them doesn't workout. Thanks

Please im still waiting for response to my question. Thanks

[quote author=deoyel25 post=31984011]Hello all,
I just started following this thread again yesterday. Even though I have done my WES and IELTS since last year, I decided to wait for the EE instead of FSWP. I just created my EE profile yesterday and I started swimming in the pool few minutes afterwards. I have been encouraged by all the contributors to this thread and I also want to render the little help I can. I have a very good IELTS material (which I used myself). Its The Official Cambridge Guide to IELTS Student's Book with Answers. All the audios for the listening tests and 17 sample videos from live speaking tests are included. You can PM me if you need the materials and I will send you the download link (1GB approximately). Its now your duty to find a way of downloading it. Cheers and goodluck to all.



Pls help send the IELTS materials to my mail: kayodemm2000@yahoo.com. thanks

Hello All,

I want to know the best way to go about processing my ECA. I will be completing my M.Sc. latest by June and will write my IELTS in April. Is it advisable to process my B.Sc. cert assessment now and apply again for assessment when my M.Sc. degree is available (im not sure how soon my M.Sc cert will be ready).
I will also appreciate if I can get preparatory materials for IELTS, my email is geolumide@yahoo.com.

Thanks
