Welcome @mamaileri

Care to share your PTE scores?

Listening 82, Reading 73, Speaking 68, Writing 83.

Not good enough to get the maximum score in English, studying for another test most likely writing IELTS but want to do my skills assessment while am preparing for the test.Hopefully would make it before the celing is reached.

40manlappy:
1. From my wife's experience, I can recommend CA. Her assessment was done in about 20 days.
2. Yes, both can be done together. Just indicate that in the application form, there is a portion for that.
3. Try and obtain your faculty handbook. You should get details of your courses there, especially the one published while you were attending the institution. You can try their library or link up with someone in your faculty.

Thank you so much for these tips really appreciate.

bellong:

In the spirit of giving back, we bless God for the success of our interview today. We acted on faith and prayed though it may sound foolish but God honoured our faith. We have already bought tickets for both taking advantage of Emirate Promo that ended Jan 18 while believing God for success at the interview which was scheduled almost a month ago. We are first time applicants, no travel history for DW, though I have travelled to Ghana twice before now.

VO: Good morning
We: Good morning
VO: Are you husband and wife?
We: Yes
VO: Why do you want to go to the US?
DW: For childbirth and vacation
Me: For exam and witness the birth of my first baby
VO: What exam is that?
Me: I mentioned it, he inquired to know the full meaning after just giving the acronyms
VO: Okay, where do you do?
Me: I am the so so and so of XYZ Plc (hypothetical name), he interrupted and asked what my day to day activity looks like. I explained, I think he felt I know what I am saying (he was impressed) nodded and asked further questions in my line of work.
VO: How much do you earn per month?
Me: I earn Xk per month apart from other benefits and bonuses?
VO: Turned to DW, where do you work?
DW: I work as ZYX, and I do so and so.
VO: What course did you study for your bachelor degree?
DW: I studied accounting.
VO: Are you chartered?
DW: Yes, I am.....I have both ACCA and ACA
VO: That is cool, how much do you mean monthly?
DW: I earn Zk monthly aside quarterly bonuses.
VO: Okay, how much is your budget for this trip, and how much have you saved?
DW: A little above 12k dollars cos I will be staying with my host during the period of my stay, and I have saved about 10k dollars.
VO: 10k, how do you intend to meet up?
DW: I will be travelling sometime in May, and I should be able to have saved up more before then.
Me: We have doctor’s correspondence here, if you would like to see.
VO: I was about asking for that, give me three documents….Budget sheet, Doctor’s correspondence and hospital bill showing the amount the childbirth is gonna cost you.
DW: We passed it to him, we also have the bank statement here.
VO: Oh, no need, just those three documents. Why this doctor and hospital?
DW: Well, based on host’s (a relative – DH’s aunty) recommendation and proximity to residence, and online review.
VO: He went through the correspondence, and the budget sheet very well.
VO: Congratulations, he gave us the white paper, and noted that we should go with all documents especially doctor’s correspondence as it might be checked at point of entry explaining that people were not allowed entry into the US cos they don’t have the documents.
We were so happy….Glory be to God.

The VO has turned down so many before us, if not up to 15, he sounded tough, drilled people and asked so many questions and we were like praying not to have him to interview us, but lo and behold, we were sent to him. DW said God will favour us, and we believed, went to him and God did it.

My testimony... BFP after failed ivf last June. Please join me to shout three thunderous alleluia. Hmm, how do I start? Singing..What a mighty God we serve...Am not really an active member but i have posted like twice. When my ivf failed I was so confused and devastated. I had so much faith it was going to work. I went back to the clinic 2nd of August for a review. The doctor couldn't say much. I was insisting that the failure must have been because of my multiple fibroids. The Dr assured me that it wasn't and asked me to come back for FET once I see my period. I agreed but getting home, I told hubby am not ready to go back yet for the FET. I told him I needed to take care of myself and use any of these networking products to shrink the fibroids before going back ending of Oct or Nov. He accepted. I continued my normal life, the products I wanted to buy and use, I just couldn't buy partly because I wasn't convinced it will work. I once asked about swissgarde products here no one answered my question. I became skeptical about it. And I started looking for another one to try. Hoping that when my period comes out I will go and get. My sisters, af no come out again ooo. I expected it on a Saturday, I no see. I never thought I could be preg, I was like hope it's not hormonal imbalance. Up until Wednesday no show, normal me will check the next day self. Not until Thursday morning around 3am I woke up to poo and decided to check and omg I saw double lines with the second being very visible too. I rushed to the room and hubby was awake too.. I knelt down, showed him the stick and started singing and crying that early in the morning. Hubby was like my voice was too high and that I should explain to him. I no answer am o. I sang to my satisfaction before answering him. He was shocked because he didn't even know my period was late. I just can't even explain this miracle. God is indeed awesome. Indeed it's only God that perfects conception. Please join me to worship this awesome Jehova. The only true and wise God. Oji obara akpu nwa... I have this words of encouragement for the remaining sisters still waiting. God is the only giver of children and what He does for one, He promised to do for others. Be steadfast in prayers, take your mind of it a times. Also please don't let any medical reports weigh you down.. I was diagnosed of so many. Blocked tube, multiple fibroids. Of late too, hubby was said to have low account. About three last tests he did is low 10, 5, and 15 million respectively. Am here to pray that this God that wiped my tears after 4years of waiting and after a failed ivf will remember each and every one of us here and this year will not end without God remembering many of us here. .. Amen!

thanks for the response very helpful

Bimpsy99:
My own little understanding. Your spouse may give you additional 5 points if he passes the skilled assessment in his profession and has at least competent in English (either academic or general training) and lastly if his skill in on the same list as your SOL or CSOL depending on the class of visa you require. However, the decision on whether he will take academic or general can only be made if you check the requirement of his assessing body. I understand for IT inclined people, ACS does not require English test but for accountants Academic version of English test is required. I trust this clarifies. You may not necessary need your spouse's skill assessment if you can achieve enough points from English test and work experience. Accounting is a very competitive profession and currently 70 points is needed for a class 189 visa.

If your spouse is in another profession that is less competitive and he has enough work experience, either of you or even both (diff EOIs) can be the principal applicant. Oga Bellong and other experts please correct me if I am wrong . I will suggest you go through this link to calculate your points and read more on the classes of visa.

https://www.acacia-au.com/skilled-migration-points-test.php

In addition, this may help; You may need to pay more upon lodging your visa application if you cant prove that your spouse has at least functional English, whether through English test or previous studies in English language.

https://www.acacia-au.com/skilled-english.php

Functional English[i]

If your spouse or partner has less than functional English, then you would need to pay the "English Education Charge" to cover English language tuition in applying for skilled migration.
You can show you have functional English ability by providing evidence of one of the following:

Completion of a degree, higher degree, diploma or trade certificate that required at least 2 years of study in English medium
Completion of all years of primary education and at least 3 years of secondary education in English medium; or
Completion of at least 5 years of secondary education in English medium; or
Scoring at least 4.5 averaged over the four components of the IELTS test within the 12 months before application, or during processing; or
Completion in Australia of at least 1 year of full-time study or equivalent part-time study towards a degree, higher degree, diploma, or associate diploma in English medium.
In some circumstances, functional English can be established via interview
You can also demonstrate functional English by completing an English test and scoring as follows:

Test component Average across test components only
IELTS 4.5
TOEFL iBT 8
PTE Academic 30
OET n/a
Cambridge (CAE) 147

Thanks for the response Bimpsy99, please i have another question is my spouse also required to the test, given that am the principal applicant. If yes do we have to write the same module.

Bimpsy99:

God bless you

imperialebony:
Actually, it takes them between 3 and 15 working days to conclude their assessment of an application (depending on your case and documents submitted alongside your application). By my calculation, today makes it the 9th day since your application was submitted. It's still in order.

thanks for the response @imperialebony, am just a bit worried cos i know about four people that submitted in ikeja and it took like just a week. Is it possible they forgot to mail me? Can i just go to their TLS office to check without receiving a notification.

Hello everyone, I submitted my visit visa since 12th of May and am yet to get any response from them, I submitted in Ikeja office because i was told they take decision faster here, please has anyone else had this issue.

Thanks to wholesome grace and Godmercies for the response. I went there for enquiry...His prices are a bit high. To just see him for ordinary consultation na 30k. Scan fifteen thousand.

Happy New month all, May it be a fruitful one for us all. Please I would like to find out if anyone has used Louis Med Hospital in Lekki, and if you will recommend them.

Hello everyone please I would like to find out if anyone here has used southshore women's clinic before.Kindly share your experience.

@Lady G I love your faith and I pray that you would receive a pleasant surprise speedily from God almighty. Sending you plenty warm ehugs.

Lady G, I wish you a BFP in this cycle.All will be well and you shall come back to testify

@itissettled... Sorry about the failed IUI, I also recently just had a failed one so understand how you feel.It is well with you my dear sister, it will all end in Praise. The verse below has helped to lift my spirit.
Psalm 113:9
He gives the childless woman a family, making her a happy mother. Praise the LORD!

Thanks coco diva for the advice on royal jelly, i also read it online so have decided to stick to propolis and bee pollen.
@ DonaTee HWA
@All may God grant all our heart desires, Have a lovely week.

Thanks favoured girl i was hoping to hear for such miracle stories.

@hopeful thanks for replying

thank you nice14 for replying and Amen to the prayer, my doctor also advised we wait for AF. it seems like such a long wait.

Hello Ladies, thanks for this very useful thread may God meet s all at the point of our needs. Pls i would like to inquire if anyone has forever living bee pollen, propolis and royal jelly. A friend recommended them to me that they can be used to shrink fibroids.

Hello all,please i have a question and would be grateful for a reply. I suffered a miscarriage last month at 9 weeks everyone is advising that i wait to see AF before trying but me i cant wait I want to try right away. Please kindly advise if it is safe to try now.

Congratulations Oviasouth. May you testimony be permanent.May God Keep you and the twins, it is well with you.
