Since there is no too obvious study gap (graduated 2018), You can either go for a PG. Cert program related to Economics or go for a PG. Cert program related to your Fed. Govt. Job & Job Duties (though you didn't mention the name of the Fed. Government Job & your Job duties to get possible program suggestions)

As an Economics graduate, I feel you can go for a PG. Cert in FINANCIAL PLANNING, that being said, see the link below, google each programs, check the overview, tuition amount for international students, admission intake,
also very importantly, check their course outlines to see how it resonates with your economics background

LONG POST!!!!

MY GcKEY WATCH IS OVER!!!

#NairaLand Silent Reader Since 2018.

First and foremost, I want to thank God for this. The journey began in 2018, when I was finishing my Bsc in Malaysia. I applied to University of Calgary (Msc of Computer Science Thesis) 2018 after graduating with First Class in Malaysia, but UCalgary rejected me. In the same year, I applied to 5 different top universities and was rejected by all of them. Then, in 2020 I was so desperate, I applied to 10 top schools in different provinces and was rejected from all the 10. In my mind I was like, are they doing me from home?

I didnt give up, I didnt relent.

Then, in October 2020, I applied to only three of the schools I had been applying to (UCalgary, UAlberta, and UWaterloo), and by March 8, I received a response from UCalgary, who offered me admission with a FULL FUNDING of CAD 54,000 SCHOLARSHIP, meanwhile my tuition is only CAD 16,000 for the two-year program (I was like, Ehn ehn, Good news at the end)

Then I started working on my SP application. Thanks especially to JustMellow of GCMSWriters; I contacted him and he wrote me a fantastic SOP; in fact, I was smiling as I read it.

It took me nearly two months to package all of my documents, and on May 1st, I submitted my application.

Let me add that during each application, I sent hundreds, if not thousands, of messages to potential supervisors before I could finally secured one.

Have you done your medicals?

I didnt get " you have received " .. Thanks for the assurance.

Anon123:


Check your portal. On the side that says " if we need any information or document, we will let you know", did it change to "we have received....". Though they dont update or notify you of receipt. But as long as you have sent it, they have received it

Teemenzo:
Shuppy congratulations. I thank God for you. God bless your hustle. We will testify soon in Jesus name.

Lawfree, Gracedson, and Emeenaka. We can'twait to rejoice with you. Shupy check your mail bro.

congratulations @Shuppy, thank you my bro @Teemenzo

EmeeNaka:

No he got admitted for May Intake (May/JUNE). IRCC requested for a new LOA so we sent them Fall Intake LOA and he got a correspondence letter and ghost update

EmeeNaka:

gracedson:

You are welcome Honorable, you would be celebrated soon

EmeeNaka:
Please are there still April Applicants waiting for PPR here??

Yes oooooo
April 24th

Hello guys,

Please I need your help! A sister of mine got her medical request on the 21st of July, her effort to book assessment with IOM Lagos or Q-life has been futile so far as they don't have time slot within the 30 days expiry period set on the medical request letter. She has about 23 more days till the request expires.

Is there a way she can get the medical done without going through the online booking system? If there is, please how can she go about it? If not, what can she do to maybe get the due date extended and how?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Olaa123:

April 27th here NSE route
Praying and hoping for the very best
The wait is draining

Your ppr is very near chief

Congratulations to her.
She has to print the medical request letter and take it to any of the hospitals (IOM or Qlife). When she explains to them with the printed copy as evidence, they would work out a date for her in order to meet up with the 30-day deadline.
All the best.

Okay, it's clear they want to approve the application. And they have taken Decision already, that's the meaning of Correspondence Letter. He should start preparing to travel

Oreoluwamipo:

Acknowledgement doesn't always come but it's Received. In fact, it's usually Received that same day you sent it.

Bless you brother!!!
