Thanks for the hints.
What is NOA please?
It’s called Notice Of Assessment. Basically a receipt from tax filing. Not everybody feels comfortable giving this report out because it narrates their actual financial worth. It explains the person’s annual gross income and corresponding tax remittances.

I am trying to respond to my ITA and have indicated in my profile that i have a sibling in Canada. These three docs are to be uploaded but they had exactly the same description.

1. Proof of PR/Citizenship of sibling
2. Proof of residency in Canada of sibling
3. Proof of sibling relationship

Did anyone have similar experience here? Did you upload the same documents in each? What documents am I to pay more attention to?
1. Upload PR card or Canadian passport front and back page to prove sibling PR or citizenship
2. Upload utility bill, mortgage or rent receipt or NOA to
prove sibling residency in Canada
3. Upload sibling birth certificate and yours also to prove sibling relationship I believe you both should have same parents or one parent on your certificates

Thank you
joo2018:
Not a problem.

You filled the right info on your eAPR for you to have gotten the placeholder. I believe you are covered.
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 6 by melarose: 6:38am On Jan 27, 2019
Wow I actually wrote no for this spouse education in my ee profile before ITA coz i wasn’t claiming points for it, but after I received ITA there was a placeholder for spouse’s degree which I still uploaded and submitted. Is this an issue really?if so, please what do I do?
joo2018:
I will advise you to pick "Yes" and then select "No" to "have you gotten an ECA".

Thanks newmum0615. Relieved now.
Newmum0615:
I think you are worrying yourself for nothing. If your ECA states that it is equivalent to a Canadian education, then it's a positive review and will be accepted by IRCC. Many people have used ATS and were successful in their application. It's not a big issue.
TravelRe: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by melarose: 9:11am On Nov 03, 2018
Thank you. It says one year college equivalent in Canada. Still, I will appreciate if I can get at least one person with ATS to help me answer a personal question
Issyman:
Good day, what is the outcome of the assessment of your ATS? It will be recognised by IRCC if the ECA report gives it a Canadian education equivalent.
TravelRe: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by melarose: 3:22am On Nov 03, 2018
Hello wonderful people of God. Please I seek urgent help! That’s why I left the express entry forum to come here. Please are there people on here who got their COPR and PPR having used ATS certification issued by ICAN? Someone told me IRCC doesn’t recognize it and I need to clarify this before it’s too late sirs and mas ejo edakun! P:s I already received ITA and I have been searching the other forum for my answer since morning but all to no avail. It’s urgent thanks
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 5 by melarose: 2:11pm On Nov 02, 2018
Thanks. That’s why I asked. Do u know anyone who has COPR already even if has not landed?
ontarioissauga:
If you are post ITA, you hunt for those who have got their COPRs or you order for your GCMS note. Not necessarily looking for those who have landed. I think ATS or ACA-based on activities with ICAN on the former and appeal letter on the latter - with any higher degree are cool wrt two or more certificates etc.

I believe ACCA has been completely ruled out because of the one semester phrase.
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 5 by melarose: 11:27am On Nov 02, 2018
Thank God! I am post ITA now. Please to make my mind be at rest, can you mention at least one person who used ATS and has landed safely in cannyland.
Talkingboy:
Some have landed sef ......
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 5 by melarose: 10:06am On Nov 02, 2018

The man I spoke with at the ICAN office said Wes is meant to send two emails to them but they only got one. The one they got included the body of my transcript and my ATS exam certificate. The other mail which Wes refused to send is supposed to contain my membership certificate and that is why this problem occurred. Honestly, this doesn’t add up neither does it make sense, please was this how ur verification came too?
safex:
Sorry for the stress bro/sis. I think you should ask WES to re-add the certificate and resend verification.
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 4 by melarose: 11:17am On Jul 31, 2018
Thanks JT I will do just dat
JustinTrudeau:
So sorry about this my friend. Since you don't know for sure what really happened and ICAN's response to them.Just have ICAN resend a verification mail to them stating that your certificate and transcript is genuine.Even if you write WES they will still need a confirmation from ICAN.
Everything will be alright
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 4 by melarose: 6:58am On Jul 31, 2018
So I managed to get a bit of what the problem was regarding my ATS evaluation. Apparently Wes did send a verification mail to ICAN on July 3 and they attached d body of my transcript and examination certificate for ICAN to respond that it is authentic but somehow I think the person responding stated that it is not their membership certificate. I really do not know for sure what the exact response was coz d man I spoke with at who I believe is in charge of verification at the idowu Taylor VI office did not say much. Now I have the mail Wes sent to ICAN and the attachments too, what do I do now should ICAN re-verify that email? Or do they have to call Wes? Do u think this can be rectified at all especially since this certificate has been removed unjustly from my Wes account timeline, is it possible for Wes to add it back? Am so angry and confused at the moment I don’t know who to face first Wes or ICAN and what to do exactly.
JustinTrudeau:
So sorry about this,i think you should leave ABWA out of the picture,send a mail to them stating that the certificate was issued by ICAN,if possible scan your exam certificate and membership certificate to them.I processed everything from Oyingbo office both transcript and verification.I had to put calls through several times before the verification was done.I was on it for over 2months. All will be well in the end and i wish you the very best.

Sorry for the late response
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 4 by melarose: 7:03pm On Jul 15, 2018
Ok I will do exactly as you have said. Kindly help me with the contact you have at the oyingbo office so I can call. I have one woman’s number but not sure she can be gingered the way I need this speedily. Thanks

safex:
Yes it was exactly like this in my timeline too... the degree certificate got to them first and they wrote accepted while waiting for the transcript, they also sent me another mail that they received my transcript but waiting for verification. Only for me to get that disturbing mail that Wes does not evaluate ATS from ABWA. So right now it is only my degree that is showing currently. Please what do I still need to do? contact ICAN?I had similar issue when I was filling WES registration form. Not until I used ICAN (instead of ABWA) as the awarding body, I kept getting error message 'WES doesn't evaluate certificate issued by ABWA'. I believe all transcripts are processed from Professional Examinations Department in Ebute-Metta. If I may ask, was your certificate accepted (like in the picture below) when you sent it to them initially?
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 4 by melarose: 6:33pm On Jul 14, 2018
Happy for you, I got my ATS same year you started yours but its confusing why WES will send me a mail saying they do not evaluate ATS from Accounting Body of West Africa ABWA which is a body under ICAN. Did you process your transcript from Yaba office or where? How was your process like and where did the verification come from? I can’t afford to lose all d money I invested in processing the ATS transcript to Canada and more painfully when I know it will help shoot my crs up. Help a friend coz my evaluation is on hold with WES at the moment until I resolve this matter in order for them to proceed. Thanks in anticipation
JustinTrudeau:
My fellow citizens,i'm back,i never left though,just joined the readers Association.The PM should not talk too much. cheesy cheesy

As advised, i evaluated my ATS and its back as a college level certificate (1 year) and scores pumped to 468.If you have ATS please go ahead to evaluate it as it will boost your scores.I also ran into some troubles when i was told to send my certificate again as i had intially sent certificate of membership that was rejected,guess they don't want that. Something in me just told me to send Examination Certificate and viola they took it in.

Back in 2011 when i was in the penultimate year in uni i started my ATS program and it didn't make sense to some people why i would do that,i was just hell bent on taking the exams.Reason being that i was studying accounting and i do not need ATS to qualify for an exemption at the professionals.I sticked to my belief not until the unthinkable happened.I failed one of the papers.I was heartbroken and thought in my head were like 'probably not the best time to start this'.Something kept motivating me and my determination and tenacity was strengthened.I wrote the paper again and i passed.I went on to pass the remaining two stages.
7 years on,this same ATS has propelled my dream as i have been sitting in 435 score since December.

We never know why somethings happen to us in life but in the nearest future you will look back and say "GOD i see what you did there'. Just to motivate someone.

Congratulations to all the PPR clinchers.I've taken my dive into the pool from a cliff and enjoying the mesmerizing feeling of the pool.Patiently waiting for the next draw.Team #468

My prayer is that God will settle everyone of us.

All rise for the PM

Please I need urgent help concerning this statement you made, I got a mail from Wes on Monday stating Wes does not evaluate ATS however that they can evaluate my degree certificate so I should respond if they should proceed with my evaluation. My question is how did yours get evaluated? Is there something I need to do now before the evaluation is completed? Do I need to call their customer service or something coz I spent money o to process the transcript,cleared my outstanding bills with Ican and still send document to Wes via dhl only for them to tell me it can’t be evaluated, please help a friend urgently, thanks
Ij1000:
I am a silent reader but I do try to give back when I can. Got my WES evaluation report back today and to further address the ATS verification, I can confirm it comes back positive canadian equivalent is '1 year of college level certificate'

Please I need help urgently on this..I started my evaluation with WES last year with just my BSc but not yet concluded as my transcript hasn't been sent by school due to Nasu strike. I have ATS but I did not include it as part of what WES should evaluate, is there a way for me to edit my application and include it for evaluation since my application has not been concluded yet?
Also, if possible how can I edit it and will it be evaluated as 2 or more certificates with one being 3years plus? Please help a concerned lady.

JustinTrudeau:
Good evening everyone,PM is back again, this time i need your advise

I initially evaluated my results with IQAS and as some of you might know that BC wasted a lot of my time. I didn't know WES evaluates ATS as a diploma not until i got stuck with IQAS I'm presently on 435 Crs score. If i get my ATS evaluated i will have 468 which will guarantee ITA.

Now the question is, can i evaluate just my ATS only with WES and add to my IQAS Bsc evaluation then update my profile as 2 or more certificate or i have to start a whole new evaluation process with WES for my Bsc and ATS.
Reason being that i want to avoid the back and forth on Bsc transcript collection and the cost.

Looking at these recent draws ITA is not coming anytime soon and i dont have that luxury of time anymore,just wanna take a radical approach.

Gurus and able citizens kindly advise.

Your PM

Your writeup gives my motivation. Mine stood at 405 with LRSW: 7.0, 8.0, 7.5, 7.5. I made painful mistakes in the listening test as I was very anxious on the exam day. I took the test on the 14th October for the first time. I am gingered now to retake on the 2nd of December hoping to get an 8 in listening as well. Please what have you learnt to do differently in securing atleast 8 in the exam. I will appreciate suggestions please coz i keep getting 32 in all my practice tests.Thanks

Hello House,

Good to be here finally... cheesy. My EE story is still loading. Got my ECA on the 2nd of Oct. Wrote the IELTS 14th Oct test and the results LRSW: 7.5, 9, 7.5, 7.5...it was so painful. CRS score crashed from 447 to 403 cry. I have already scheduled Nov 11th to write another test. I hope this time i will get at least an 8 in listening. I have learnt a lot from this thread, you guys are simply amazing. All the best to everyone as we pursue this worthy cause.
