You dun mean it?

Good day,
For those of us using NYSC, do we add National Youth Service Corps to our job title when filling work history? Or we just fill our job title in work history and then add NYSC in personal history?

Below is the format. If both letters have those details, then you are safe uploading them alone.

"a reference or experience letter from the employer, which

should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits; "

However, it may also make sense to prepare for a scenario in which you get an ADR for payslips. You can ask the cash paying company for a salary certificate.

Thank you


I believe it contains all cic requirements but I would just try to get a salary certificate for the place I was paid cash incase I get an ADR.

The reason I want to avoid an ADR is because I know I can't get pay slips or salary certificate from this military establishment. They claim all military documents are "classified documents", it took a lot of effort to even get them to provide this reference letter in this format, they wouldn't even listen to me if I go back there to ask for another document. Although, I have my bank statement showing deposits from them but it is just 9 months out of 12 because I collected the other 3 months cash.

I thought it was Paul of psquare.

Thank you. Both letters have all the details listed above.

Stay consistent if your letter is in CIC format

Depends on what the cic format is.

One letter has the same template as the one posted on page 1

The second one is from a military establishment so it didn't bullet my job duties like the template we have on page one and the paragraphs are numbered. I was told for the military style of writing, paragraphs must be numbered and bulleting points isn't allowed. However, it contains the important details like duration, work hours per week, responsibilities/duties(written in two paragraphs), contact of supervisor etc.

Do I add these documents to the ones i am supposed to submit to CIC under education section or i upload them under the optional file: Either.

If I am uploading them under the education section, I understand my LOE has to come first. I hope I can upload all other documents that I am submitting in any particular order?: Include a table of contents to help the agent/officer.

Okay thanks a lot.
One more thing, I had planned to upload just my work reference letter because that's what CIC actually needs.
Just for clarification purpose, I was paid cash at the first place I worked( so I don't have any proof of payment) but I have my bank statement showing i received salary from the other place I declared. Is there any need adding bank statement to one reference letter, while I upload just the reference letter for the other? Or do you advise I just stay consistent with reference letters only?

Hello,
I guess the documents to upload in education section are ECA, Ielts certificate, degree certificate in no particular order. However, I am writing an LOE for my education and I intend to attach some other documents like statement of result, transcript and professional registration to support my explanation. Do I add these documents to the ones i am supposed to submit to CIC under education section or i upload them under the optional file.

If I am uploading them under the education section, I understand my LOE has to come first. I hope I can upload all other documents that I am submitting in any particular order? "I.e transcript could come before ECA and ielts certificate"

joo2018:
This is why context is important. You did not specify that your CV was with a US school not a US government.

And it also appears that you have already made a decision and is just looking for reinforcement.

You can choose not to add it. Since it didn't appear before in the US immigration application. Info-sharing is between the Canadian and US governments.

If you decide to include it, it will be under "Organization", volunteer.

Thanks a lot bro. I haven't decided yet, nor seeking reinforcement. I am here to seek expert opinion to guide me so I won't make any costly mistake.

Did you write the articles in your own name? If a Google search of your name brings up the articles you wrote, then you better declare it. You can say it's freelance work but if it's published under your friend's name as if he wrote them, then it's your choice whether to add or remove it from your history

No. A Google search won't bring up my name. The blog publishes all articles under the name "admin" .

joo2018:
Just put it under "Organization" or if you are more comfortable with "Employment", do it this way:

Sportswriter (volunteer, part-time) - Employment - XYZ Blogging Company.

Hello bro, here is a clearer picture.

In October 2015, an ex school mate of mine and his friend decided to venture into blogging and I volunteered to support him with football contents at my own convenience and I did that on a part time basis until January 2018. As at 2015 the company wasn't registered and I didn't know because my ex school mate was not so open about the details of the blogging company and I didn't care either because I was just doing what I like. I was just doing it the same way I come to nairaland to create a topic and post online.

However, sometime last year, after I stopped creating contents for him, he told it was a registered company and that I could include it in my CV if I am job hunting. So I used it in a CV I submitted to a US school, stating I wrote articles for the blogging company from 2015 to 2018 because I was applying to a program that requires good writing skills.

A fortnight ago, I just checked up the company on CAC's public search and I found out this company was registered in March 2017; more than one year after I started writing for him, meaning at the time I started helping him with contents, they weren't registered.

Fortunately and Unfortunately for me, I didn't include the blog company when filling my US Visa application ahead of the Visa interview, I only used it in the CV I submitted to the school to secure my admission.

Now how do I tell CIC I did voluntary activity somewhere from October 2015 till Jan 2018, when the company wasn't even registered till March 2017.

Also I can't add it to employment because I wasn't employed by the company and I have no official documentation to that effect. Even if I was employed, a company which was registered in 2017 can't employ someone in 2015.

In addition, there was no contract stipulating I was doing a voluntary service, it was just me who verbally offered to help him, when he told me about his plans to go into blogging.

In my US Visa application I submitted to the US embassy, the blog company isn't part of my work history and I also stated that I haven't engaged in any voluntary activity.

I feel more comfortable removing it entirely so as not to contradict my US Visa application. I am only worried about this because I have read here that Permanent Residency background check is thorough and I don't know if the check would get to the extent of demanding my CV from the US school I applied to.

joo2018:
As you were not paid, volunteer work should probably be under "Organization".

NMA should also be under "Organization".

Only your employment should be sequential. The others can be simultaneous.

Thank you, there is no contract agreement or official letter to this voluntary work. It is a completely unofficial stuff. I started doing it after graduation because I was bored at home and I continued doing it after i got a job because i loved football. So the activity required me to write football contents for a friend who is working in a local blogging company at my own convenience without any financial reward. I am not so sure if the blogging company knew I was the one developing the contents sef, even if they knew, I wasn't recognised by them.
The issue is I made a mistake by including it in my CV i sent to two US schools that I wrote for the blog for the period I engaged in the activity. I just don't know how far CIC background checks go. If I hadn't included it in any of my CVs, I wouldn't bother including it.
I am just making sure I don't make mistake in this application.

We haven't finished dealing with 2019

They have divided our church.

Zanotty:
Na to go rape d rape o. Can't be in jail for nothing

Good day house.

During personal history, do we fill volunteer work as employment? I did a part time voluntary activity when I was working full time. Do I claim the voluntary activity is an employment as well? I can't have two employment in the same period can I?

Secondly, for medicals, do we include NMA as an organization we are part of? If we do, the personal history won't follow sequentially.
Please help.

Hehehe. APC wahala too much abeg.

False. I have a job but I applied. So? Does that mean I M unemployed?

Lol. Wa koyor. Avbe historians

That was too much though.

Hihihihih

PORNeliusHUBson:
Airforce nd army dnt keep beards bt Police is optional.....

Alright then.

PORNeliusHUBson:
I lived in the barracks thru out my childhøod nd teens. Ur statement is inconclusive. I av seen dozens of police men wit full beard. The S.0 self at dat tym had whyt beards.

I lived in the Airforce base for years and even worked there. I am telling you what I know about the military. Maybe the police is different. You don't keep beards as a force man.

Kingbones:
The guy had no beards in the first photo









Nice one tho

Yeah. You don't keep beards in the force
So you can't be on uniform and have beards. You must shave
