I had a similar if not same issue.

What i did was to simply mail and call WES in that order so that while speaking we have something to reference.

I found out that WES only sent hard-copy of the verification documents, immediately i requested that they send soft copies

as hard-copy cannot be guaranteed to get to my school as i was running out of time.

Next day, i got a mail informing me that soft copy has been sent to my school as requested. Sharply my contact checked school and voila, the rest is history.

Good Morning seniors in the house,

Please I need your advice on this. My wife's HND and OND verification to Auchi Polytechnic has been pending since 8th of August. School said they haven't seen it. My contact in school has gone to all possible recepient of the mail still nothing positive.

I would like to know how long it take for receipt of the hardcopy from those people that had their done with hardcopy and next line of action as I have contacted WES like 6times on this matter.

I guess you can only access that 25% once in a life time
shuddyy:


I owe you immense debt of gratitude for finding time to honour me with a response. God bless you.

One more enquiry pls.

I have accessed the 25% of my RSA which is usually the case after exiting a job without a new one four months after. However I still have well over N4Million balance in my RSA (the statutory savings/deductions while on the job not voluntary savings). Can this in any way contribute to my POF?

Many thanks.

Thats how the outsourcing firm, which is basically the same as the bank that outsourced spouse to bank no gree give us reference letter in the way we want it worded which in reality was the job description.

They just gave us one reference letter that falls under NOC C, meaning spouse as the PA will not be able to claim 3 yrs experience.

Our options now will be as follows;

- Wait for spouse completion of MBA in another 6 or 9 months from now, then we evaluate to claim desired points

- Wait for spouse to get another year experience in new workplace which is NOC B (this will be by September 2019) since spouse will
still be way below 29 by then so no deduction of 5 points . This will now give desired 3yrs experience.

- I also created a profile for myself which amounts to 419 (Max experience with BSC. MBA in view by end of 2019). if miracle happens that Ontario decides to pick me, then we say Hallelujah!!! or if i hunt for some PNP?

- Any other ideas on what to do? can spouse claim experience for all those internships of 2 or 3 months in relevant NOCS to add up for experience?

On a lighter note, i can lend out POF while we still think of what to do grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

We go enter this canny las las sha

Well, u know that there are several branches/specialization in information technology and to boost chances of landing a good job in Canada, its best to pursue certifications in your area of specialization. For example if you are into Networking, CCNA,Comptia will do fine, as a software engineer you will be getting certifications around the technologies you are conversant with like Java, .net, oracle , etc. Note, this are just to boost chances and not any form of guarantee, since certifications are just proof of knowledge. Again experience too can be a game changer.

Best of luck!

Unfortunately, the poster is contradicting/ confusing us all. He has not really explicitly said he filled in arbitrary details under spouse ECA, even though that's what is been implied. grin grin grin . make him responsd

o2:
Why this advice, when i filled my own i claimed my spouse has a higher educatin but chose that he doesnt have ECA (that means it was not evaluated). By the time i got ITA there was still the space for spouse's educational document and i put his certificates.

Lets try to understand people before advising decline. If he didnt fill any ECA number pre ITA Aand didnt get marks for ECA. It is not MISREPRESENTATION.

You should be able to make that transaction with your FBN card. I'm aware they reviewed their daily limit to 5,000 USD.

Why not give the bank a call and also you may want to confirm you have sufficient funds too?

I was hoping no one would ask���� LMAO.
I left my accommodation and uber pre-order in the hands of a relative. And I didn't bother to check. My plan was once I was out of the airport I would call her. Unfortunately my airtel line wasn't roaming. I had to take an airport taxi to the airbnb in missisuaga. My host had left. He had been waiting for me and because I couldn't reach him he thought maybe I wasn't coming but he left the key somewhere for me and left the door open but I didn't know that because I couldn't reach him. I sat on the side walk and started crying my heart out. Then I received sense seeing my son there tired and hungry and I walked up to some man in the building.. a tenant too and asked where I could get free WiFi because where I was the WiFi was passworded and the concierge wasn't ready to help me.
Women dealing with women since the beginning of time. So I went to the next block of apartments and the concierge there a man have me the password and I made my calls and was able to get in.

having no website aint an issue bro. worry not

OK thanks. So the new company not having a website won't be an issue? She has updated her LinkedIn profile accordingly though, and she's also lucky that her department manager (Indian) and the managing director (American) of the new company are both following her on LinkedIn.

As per reference lettter, not an issue as the HR guys will just reference previous name of firm in the letter. After all the reference letter will carry letter head of its new name.

Debsify:
Hello all,

It's been good following this thread, as I have being a silent reader for months now. My wife and I have started the pre EE process..she is going to be the PA, and scored well in her IELTS LRSW: 9,9,8,7.5. We both have only BSCs. I plan to write mine later this month. We have also started the ECA process in July and awaiting transcript to be sent to WES (FUTO is slowing down things) Anyways my major concern is my wife's work experience. She has over 3 years experience inclusive of nysc in the same NOC and company, but the company was sold to another company early this year; even though she continued with the new company, we are still confused on how her reference Letter will be written, because the new company doesn't have a working website yet, and she has two years 11 months experience with the old company. What to do?

Hello people, just a quick question!

is it compulsory to include current job pre-ITA especially if you do not intend to get any points for that job?

Maximum score for work experience has already been achieved by previous job roles, as well as POF.

NB: new on current role, about 6 months and would not want to get any reference letter from employer.

your thoughts pls

So far u didn't indicate if you have a nursing degree? as the response you got from WES mentions that WAEC verification is compulsory for persons with a nursing degree as of now regardless of when application was submitted.

Your response will help provide clarity for those still expecting their ECA completion with WES.

Wishing you a speedy processing for your WAEC verification. it will end in praise
