The kind of questions i see on this thread these days has me facepalming myself.

Why are we like this? Some of you want everything done for you from start to finish. Where is that done? How did y’all pass through school? To read seems to be an issue, research nko? That one na problem.

Simple questions that require using the search bar or even google, you will see them asking. Some questions just require common sense and logical reasoning but no they will still be asking mumu questions. This is one of the reasons agents are scamming people these days. Nobody wants to read or put in the work but you want results kpa kpa kpa

Some questions are valid and unique so don’t even come for me �. Lets try to do better, we are going to a country where nobody will tell you anything. If anything sef they expect you to do your research and be well informed. Lets do the needful and be more proactive please.


You will still see someone come and ask which ECA body is better and faster abi has wes removed waec truly ��. angry angry angry

@Canada2021 poster is right, August 28th to July 23 will count as 11months. You started working at the end of August not the beginning so it will not be counted.

FGASchool:


I'm sure your letter will have exact dates and not just months as seen in the EE profile. January 30 to December 1st is 11 months by VO standards.
Simply go to your calendar and count date to date.

You do not want to know how many applications have been rejected because of this so called minor issue.

Well, it's your application so do what gives you sweet sleep.

Technically it is employment so i’d say put it under the employment part of Personal history.

Hephzibah2018:


Actually, I'm trying to input my directorship into Personal history under organization for activity type and it keeps saying this "Any period of time you indicate as being a member of an organization will not count as part of the 10-year personal/address history you are required to provide". So I change the activity type to Employment instead of organization or leave it as is?

I’ve edited my answer from earlier, the letter from your ppa will not fly seeing as its actually 11months. See if you can get the date to match what is on your NYSC certificate.

Thanks for pointing that out. Somehow i skipped the part where it said 28th ��‍♀️��‍♀️.

I’ll edit my answer now.

FGASchool:


August 28th to July 23rd is actually 11 months. If she is using NYSC as her primary NOC, her application could be refused.

I have written them again today. I uploaded a LOE when I was submitting my documents. My account statement and discharge certificate was attached to the reference letter.

Thank you.

You’re welcome, goodluck.

Hi house

is this possible?
It’s possible as long as it’s going to your own account. Just ensure it’s the Canadian dollar equivalent of your required proof of funds. Also get a gift deed from him too.

Hephzibah2018:


Thanks sis, so please does my reference letter need to specifically state that it is a family operated organization and that I am a director of the company?

If it’s the SAME company, You can include a line or two about being registered as a director for your mind to be at rest but seeing as thats not the role you are claiming points for i don’t think it’s necessary. Adding it to your personal history should suffice. (Others can chime in).

Also i don’t think it’s necessary to state it’s a family owned business as long as you have all relevant requirements to prove employment unless you are writing a LOE.

Nothing to stress out about really, just calm your mind.
If you are less than 28 years, declare everything from age 18 till date. If 28 and above, declare the last 10yrs only.

The instruction is to declare the last 10years or from 18th birthday till date depending on which is closer.
Anything before these times are not exactly relevant.

Hephzibah2018:


Thanks so much for responding. I am claiming points for the two years experience as a microbiologist in the laboratory department of the organization, plus a separate NYSC experience. It's difficult to say the exact duration for which i've been a director, as its been that way since the organization was registered when I was a kid.

Pls advise...I'm so stressed out about this

You will get an email in your personal yahoo or gmail account saying you have a mail on cic account. So it’s best to keep an eye on the email address you used to open up your cic account. Check spam too.

hello, please a quick question, will they send the notification to apply to your e-mail address or you have to keep checking your express entry profile?
Travel / Re: Canadian Express Entry/federal Skilled Workers Program - Connect Here Part 8 by PopularGingo: 5:23pm On Sep 24, 2019
Are you claiming points for the 3months? If no (which should be unless you are trying to make up 3yrs work experience), i suggest you forget about getting a reference from them for that duration and just include this information in personal history section which would come up after getting ITA unless you are going PnP route( you’ll understand if this is the case.

If yoy are claiming work experience, get a former colleague that still works there to give you a reference on plain paper stating your duties, duration of work, salary paid and how it was paid. Notarise this document, add his/her work id card and any other thing that can prove their own employment as well as evidence (if possible) of how/why you were unable to get a reference from the employer directly.

Goodluck

[s]Thats 12 months already, it will fly. Just ensure you can show 12 salary payments from Aug to July. Mine is from July to June.[/s]

Edit: August 28th to July 23rd is 11months. Consider using the dates on your NYSC certificate and see if your PPA would be willing to give you a new letter with the same date as your certificate

Tbh i’m not sure how to advice at this point so hopefully someone can help.

Canada2021:
Good Afternoon,
I intend to use my NYSC experience as part of my work experience to start my Express Entry process.

The Reference Letter i collected from my ppa States as follow:
Start Date: August 28th 2018

I resumed in camp on the 28th of August 2018 and i passed out in July 23rd

Please will it suffice to one year work experience.

The inatruction is to declare the last 10years or from 18th birthday till date depending on which is closer.
Fidesa:


But what if you were registered as a member of the board when you were a child, say 12 years ago and before your 18th birthday, do you have to declare this as well?
Besides we know that as kids, back in the day our parents would buy shares in our names, without our knowledge, thereby making you a shareholder in those companies.
so how will this be declared of unknown?

Email or call either Qlife or IOM.

Better still ho to their office to book if you need it urgently. Bear in mind that qlife may require ITA proof before booking a near date for you.

Since you’ve listed it in a previous application, i’d say include it under personal history just so it comes up plus you are not claiming points for it. An LOE would do if you prefer to explain the connection too.

Hephzibah2018:
Good morning lovelies, honorable seniors please this is especially for you.
I'm one of the directors of my Dad's medical services organizations and have stated this in a previous CIC application. However, I am also an employee in the Laboratory Unit of the Clinic subsidiary, and have been working for two years. Does my reference letter need to also state the director portion of my involvement?
The way my reference letter is drafted right now just takes care of the employee details in the required CIC format, without stating that I work for my dad or that I am a director in the company.

Please kindly advise, brothers and sisters. I find this really tricky and delicate, especially with the whole disclosure fiasco going on. The 5-year ban someone was hit with frightened me, so I'm trying to be extra careful.

I assume you’ve included you nysc posting letter and other documents and statement to back up 1year posting. Just write a letter of explanation explaining how nysc works with 3weeks camp then off to ppa for work. This LOE with evidence should suffice hopefully.
Hocmeum:
Thanks for your concern.

I can get another one, but that will be misrepresentation,base on d former I submitted. I will just raise CSE and explain the truth which is actually what I submitted. I actually did hint it that I was posted to serve for one year(additional documents upload) and that we camped for 3weeks, thereafter I was posted to my PPA.

I posted in the PNP thread but I’ll post here just incase someone is interested.

ALBERTA PROVINCIAL NOMINATION PROCESS (OR HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN) based on my own experience so far, will update and modify as i go along.

EE account was opened in April, NOI came in July. My crs score is 446 and NOC 1241 Administrative assistant with one year (NYSC) work experience. I have two or more certificates and I am turning 28 in October. I also chose specific provinces when i was creating my profile because i was targeting those provinces for nomination. Some have chosen all provinces and still got Alberta nomination.

Alberta picks their candidates out of the pool with crs scores as low as 300 sometimes (as seen on their website). Each round of invitations has a different crs cut off (again check their website). As for NOC, they have a list of in demand occupations they choose from but from my own understanding they dish out invites to admin assistants/officers the most (i may be wrong, don't quote me). I can't say how they pick in terms of years of experience or whether you have other NOC's on your application. Also your profile must have more than 3 months left to expire.

Anywhoo, once you've received your Notification of Interest from Alberta, you are required to download or screenshot it, attach it to an email along with you EE profile number, full name and status of current or past AINP applications (if you have previously applied or not) and send to albertaexpressentry@gov.ab.ca within TWO (2) weeks (14 days) of receiving the NOI.

You will get a response from them within one week that contains a document checklist, the AINP form and what to do next. You will have 30 Days from the date of the email to send out your documents and forms to Alberta by Post. The document checklist will tell you what forms to fill from CIC website as well as documents you would need to attach. There is a guide on CIC website for filling these forms. I cannot stress it enough that you have to read, read, read the forms properly, check youtube and google (CAnadaVisa forum) for others with issues like yours before answering if you are unsure or better still post on NairaLand and somebody will answer (hopefully). Note that things like WES require original submission, in this case, print out the downloaded copy you got from WES website on coloured paper.

Do not staple or pin any of your documents, arrange them according to the way they are listed on the documents checklist. If you do not have Adobe reader on your device, you will be unable to fill the forms. Ensure you correct any mistakes before printing. If you spot a mistake after printing you will have to correct and print the whole thing again because all the barcodes and ID numbers have to be the same at the bottom of the page ( this applies to the AINP and generic IMM form). If your application is incomplete or missing documents, they will send it back or cancel it.

You do not need to add police report, medicals, or bank statement to this application. Also note that Alberta application is free. I used Aramex (they handed over to UPS) to send my documents signed and tracked at N12590 nd it arrived in 5/6days.

Na where i stop be this, any further updates on my application and i will be back to update this post.

Goodluck!!!!

@Gladesh see post about IDP remark procedure.

PopularGingo:
I'm making this post because i've seen few people ask get no reply (Maybe i missed it). I've shared my experience in the past but doing it one more time won't hurt. I wrote IELTS for the 2nd time in April 2019 and got LRWS - 8.5, 7.5, 6.5, 7.5. based on advice and the confidence i had that i wrote well, i applied for a remark and got upgraded to 7.5.

The reason for this post is to say if you have high scores in other areas and you are confident in your writing/speaking, please apply for a remark as soon as possible.

The process for applying for MOD/IDP is this: send them an email requesting a remark (info@ielts.ng) including your exam number and centre number. they will send you the forms to fill as well as account/amount to pay.

Once you pay, send form back along with proof of payment. They will confirm receipt and inform you that your EOR is going to be reviewed. This next part is important... within a day or two, Follow up with an email to IDP Australia (idpieltsaustralia@idp.com) and copy IDP Nigeria (email above) confirming that they have received your request for remark.

Once they respond and confirm that its been received or looked into, you can now sit down and wait for the results.

P.S:- always tick remark for at least 2 sections just incase once changes and the other doesn't, that way you'll still get refund and money is not lost. unless of course you've maxed out points in other areas.
