I thin you nipped my question in the bud. I really understand that the US favour TOEFL over IELTS but most schools accept either one. I also thought i could dave money by using the same WES evaluation for both interests.

What you did not tough on though is whether the IELTS for work is different from that for admission. I think i saw somewhere where they said it's different. Not sure though.
I've answered your question in my previous mention.
I said you can't use WES evaluation for immigration for academic purpose. They're two different evaluation.

For Canada masters program, you don't need IELTS except stated by your school (very rare but nit impossible).
For U.S Admission, i will advise you write TOEFL, and that's if you're targeting G.A which you will have to write and ace GRE.
You can't use the WES evaluation for skilled migration for study. ( it is stated on their website to specify if you're going for immigration or academics) so WES evaluation for study will NOT work for immigration.
And lastly, WES evaluation for Canada is different from WES evaluation for U.S. you can't use WES canada evaluation to apply for U.S.

Please everyone, i'm trying to kill two birds with a stone but i want to know if it's possible...

I'm about to write IELTS for the Canadian Skilled Immigration program. I also want to apply for a masters program in Canada and the US, what i want to know is if it's the same IELTS that is being used for workers and student. I also want to know if WES evaluates the same transcipt for both US and CANADA so that i don't have to start paying separately for each one.

Well I don't know much about the program MBBS. If it's a first degree, I will say it's okay. But if it's higher than first degree (professional examination/qualification after first degree) then it's not a progression. Albeit, academic advancement may not work against you even if your qualification is higher than proposed PGD. So far you can convince the V.O the reason why you're going for that course and how it stand to benefit you. Precisely if the program is only offered as a PGD program only.

Gurus in the house(@ walspring, texrems, Oludare and so on), I greet u all. I just discovered this site this evening, and would love to share my case with the house so that i can know the right path to follow....I applied for F1 visa last year December( precisely December 2nd )and was refused....let me quickly share my transcript before I seek your suggestions....

ME: Good morning
VO: good morning
ME: hows work?
VO: she laughed and said Fine...Why are going to the US?
ME: i'm going there to study, to pursue Masters degree in Business Administration @ WSU.
VO: how many schools did you applied to?
ME: 3 schools, and i mentioned the schools.
VO: why WSU?
ME: I came across an article from a Professor in WSU, and i got captivated by
Obviously that reason is just not convincing and does not sound too interesting to the hear. You can give reasons like;
You Compared tuition fees of other schools with the school, and you found it cheaper. Or may be it came with G.A which is better off the other schools.
Or say something like; the school gave you admission first of all the three schools you applied to. And not to delay and not sure of other schools decision, you chose to go with that; cos they day " A bird at hand is worth more than a thousand in the bush"......

I agree with you Austinpee4, Also his/her undergraduate course of study.
Austinpee4:
Before you get a proper response to your question, you need to state more info about
1. What you are currently doing in line with the PGD you intend to pursue.
2. How many years of work experience you have?

You purpose of visit needs to be put in place first before you permutate your financial availability.

It should be. But I think @40manlappy has used IQAS, so he can confirm it.

Yes it's digits
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by penitential(m): 12:31pm On Mar 22, 2017
Don't know what IQAS name theirs. But WES uses reference number. If I may ask, is the I.D digit or alphabet? If it's digit, i think it's the same as reference number.

Hello people,
Please I have been able to pay IQAS online but can't see a reference number in the email I got can only see application Id. Please which is the right one?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by penitential(m): 12:23pm On Mar 22, 2017
Whichever way. If he can transfer the total cost of study to you, then fine. If he can't, he can choose to be transferring it to you monthly provided you will have a substantial amount to pay the school fees when you're submitting your TRV app. You don't make your app cumbersome and look desperate by so much affidavit this, affidavit that.... swearing affidavit left and right. Just make it simple and that's all.
spores99:
by transferring money to me do you mean the total cost of study or the monthly transfer of 2500CAD per month from his salary account
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by penitential(m): 11:46am On Mar 22, 2017
Oga, one of the best way to show his commitment to you is to transfer the money to you. By that, you leave the V.O with little or none to bother as to why he wants to sponsor you.
spores99:
bro it's a year program.... yes in the sponsorship letter one of his major reason is because my father sponsored him through his schooling days so he feels it's right to also sponsor me since he his financially capable..and also he will explain in the letter that he owns a trading business aside his salary account where he earns more income enough to take care of him and his family.... I guess I would go with his salary account and also show prove that he owns a trading company (company documents- cert of incorporation, board of directors and Co)

what do you think about that?
TravelRe: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program Connect Here by penitential(m): 10:12am On Mar 22, 2017
If you can attache photocopy of your certificate of result inside your transcript envelope, then you need not fax anything to them. But if you can't, then you can fax it to them instead of incurring another expenses to courier it to them.

Hi, Please do we need to send anything thing to Iqas by fax?

@T405, with your profile, getting the highest possible scores in another IELTS will and getting your wife to write IELTS (with maximum possible score of 9,9,9,9) and evaluating her certificate (bachelor's degree or masters)will put you at 435. That's the highest point you can get unless you have masters.
t405:
@adiahabasi

pls can you enlighten me?
i have been reading through previous posts and on several occasions i have seen how increase in ielts scores has upgraded scores significantly from as low as 415 to 472 and other similar cases like that.but in my case you and someone else mentioned an increase in my ielts scores can only fetch me bout 9 extra CRS points. is their any reason its not more than 9 considering other cases i have seen on this platform where a score increase has resulted in much higher CRS points.

I would realy appreciate your input. i am willing to rewrite but 9points would just move me from my current 421 to 430 which is stil low and doesnt seem to be worth a another 68k which is a lot for me right now

I think it was "ties to country of residence" that she considered and made her rejected you. Every other thing looks good to me. I will suggest you re-try when you're married.
AntyLydia:
Ehennn, I have been an ardent follower of this thread. So, this morning I had my interview for my visit visa at the Lagos consulate. Today was a feast of blue paper, I barely saw a white paper. My transcript is as below:

Vo: Good morning
Me: good morning
Vo: pass me your passport
me: passes my old and new passports (she collected only the new one)
Vo: where are you going in US
Me: New York city
Vo: why are you going to New York city?
Me: for vacation, my annual leave is in July and I plan to spend that time vacationing in New York, and would love to visit some interesting tourist attraction sites there like the statue of liberty, museums, central park and other sites
Vo: Have you travelled to other countries
Me: yes, Australia, New Zealand, India, Ghana and Benin Republic (I told her mission in these countries, she picked the old passport and flipped through the pages)
Vo: What do you do?
Me: I am a medical doctor (I told her my area of specialisation)
Vo: what type of ailment do you treat?
Me: told her the common illnesses encountered in my practice
Vo: where do you work?
Me: I work with bla bla bla
Vo: Are you married?
Me: No
VO: Do you have children?
Me: No
Vo: Do you have relatives in New York?
Me: No, I do not have relatives in New York (In my Ds 160 form, I had filled that I have a relative in Georgia but I did not tell her this since she specifically asked about New York)
Vo: I'm sorry, you do not qualify for this visa at this time (passes back my passports with blue paper)
me: thank you.


That was it, I went back home to mourn the loss of my hard-earned 54,500 naira.

Let me include my other profile which she did not ask for during the interview.
Age: 35years
Gender: female
Duration of work: 9 years
salary: bla bla bla.

Also, this is my second rejection, the first was in 2012. AntyLydia iyaf suffered angry angry angry

It's okay. Since the transfer will reflect the account name as his and his account number. It's very good.
spores99:
he has not transferred any money yet to me.... but he is going to state that he would be transferring 2500CAD monthly to me
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by penitential(m): 10:04pm On Mar 21, 2017
No ish! It further justify his commitment to really sponsor you beyond just giving you S.O.A.[quote author=spores99 post=54818070][/quote]
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by penitential(m): 9:58pm On Mar 21, 2017
Sure!! Let him explain it inside the L.O.E so that it will justify the balance inside your account and they won't see it as lodgement.
spores99:
house please I need your input....my sponsor is my uncle same surname...he intends to sponsor with his salary acct (works high post with mtn), which has a balance of 3million and my total tuition(19K CAD paid 2350CAD) & living expenses(10K) converted to naira is like 8million...... can he state in affidavit & letter of sponsorship that he will be transferring like 2500CAD monthly to me to cover for my studieshuhhuh?

That means you two want to abscond to Canada through study permit. I will advise that if you want to migrate to Canada, kindly use the EXpress Entry medium under FSW. If you are going for study, please don't apply at the same time. It will affect your S.O.A except you're extremely financial buoyant. Also it will affect your home ties except you have other convincing ties to use.
dokkitaa:
Woow. I am really learning here. Can I ask also ask that assuming I got married before processing my visa, would it be best to apply with my husband or wife depending on who get admission or process my visa without including her and allow her to apply on visit.

When is she expected to apply for a visit after I had gone? Also if the two are married and they got admission in Canada resuming the same time. How would they process there visa in this case?
