Thank you so much! Did you personally use this to add a second certificate?

Ontarioo:
Go ahead and evaluate with WES. ATSWA add a second certificate.

Hello Everyone,

I need the help of the house. I have a certificate from ICAN from the Accounting Technicians Scheme West Africa (ATSWA) program. Has anyone tried and had any success using this Accounting Technician certificate to claim points for a second degree (the 2 or more category)? I would like to confirm this before proceeding to WES to add it to my BSc degree. Please I would appreciate any tips or help concerning this.

Thank you.

@lushk we are yet to see your timeline.
Please share to inspire others on the platform

I am sharing my timeline to encourage everyone…. I got a lot of Info from Nairaland and I hope this helps at least one person.

I reached out to an agent initially that gave me a bill of 1500 USD, when I converted to Naira, I decided to do my application my self. Thank God for grace and patience.

First time applicant -age 30
Program of study- MBA
School- Rotman school of management - University of Toronto
I got partial scholarship but still needed to show how I will fund the balance and my expenses.

So prior to my study permit application, I had two expired EE application my score was low so I didn’t get ITA. This made me nervous cos it was a proof that I would be looking for PR after my studies and I wasn’t sure if it would affect their decision.


Submitted my application February 19 with Upfront Medicals and my bank statement
Biometric request Feb 20
Biometrics updated to pass Feb 24
Medical updated to pass Feb 26
NSE request for IELTS Feb 25
Submitted IELTS- Mar 27
BVL May 31
PPR June 1

I graduated in 2011, and I have worked in the financial services industry since 2011 from my NYSC posting. I got my Chartered financial analyst (CFA) certification in 2019 so my LOE was focused on saying I needed the MBA for career progression and to take on leadership position. I also spoke about the need for investment analysts to have a global training to prevent mismanaging large funds and negatively affecting the Nigerian capital markets.

I attached pictures of my family members, got a study leave, letter of intro and my payslips from my employer.

For economic ties I used my 75% of my pension, my car and my equity investment. The 25% of my pension I stated I would use it for my funding during my studies. The PFA gave me a letter to support this.

For funding, the first page was a letter explaining all lump sums and where they came from and I stated that it was to show sufficient liquidity.
I included two tables one showing all my expected expenses for two years and all my funding. Then I included a summary table showing both incase there was any confusion that the funding was more than the expense.

My program is for 2 years so I had to show how I intended to finance it for the total duration. I didn’t want to inform any relatives so I had to sponsor my self. I got my admission in October, didn’t apply till February because of funding, I used this time to consolidate my finances and also apply for loans. I applied to Prodigy ( I was rejected) and Mpower( I got approved).


The school had an immigration lawyer that also helped me look through my letters and my forms

Please has anyone submitted their passport to Lagos recently after PPR or should I just stick to Abuja?

I have been a silent reader, I just got my PPR!!!!!
I was feeling so bad initially because I got my BVL yesterday but no PPR and I saw some people got two mails simultaneously.
I cant believe this....
I got so many information from Nairaland.
Thank you.. will share my timeline shortly

Hello everyone,

Submitted my application on the 19th of Feb,
Received the NSE request today for IELTS

The IELTS I have was done in 9 Feb 2019, the letter does not mention anything about the validity or how many years the IELTS should be?

Do you advise me to submit that IELTS or book to write another one?
