Hello everyone please I need opinions on writing Ielts with British council, I tried booking with MOD but they are having technical difficulties.

Both are the same doesn't really matter who you write it with. I did British Council myself and it wasnt as it was painted by some persons.

Doesn't really matter which exam body you register with. They are the same biko. Success depends on the preparation put into taking the test. Wrote with BC twice (The first one I went to play, couldn't have aced jack, me self know cheesy work made it difficult for me to prepare for my first attempt and I had rescheduled twice, I couldn't reschedule again). My 2nd attempt would have been it for me but listening messed me up and it was Map that did me strong thing oooo.

L-7.5
R-9.0
W-8.0
S-7.5

Even though I still have to retake the test again, it will always be British Council for me. Passing depends on the candidate. I remember your moniker, you got PPR in 2018. You be senior grin. This registration isn't for you right?

See here FAQ 34 https://www.nairaland.com/6829885/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled#107239809

You can add a spouse at any time, even after COPR but it must be before you land.

You could:
1) ask for an extension to the 30 days - I suspect you need to give the reason, or

2) send in your passport, get COPR and then add her once you marry but before you land and before COPR expiry. Like this person https://www.nairaland.com/5187408/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/509#81533301

3) if you are already 100% certain of your decision to wed, marry next week at court and add her now even before COPR and advise IRCC immediately with all the docs required, like the person here https://www.nairaland.com/5031893/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/395#77874910
In any of these scenarios above you need to contact IRCC...my only concern is how quickly they will respond to webforms or emails given that you are time bound. Pls try sending daily until you get a personalised response.

4) unless you want to go without her, quickly do a soft landing get your PR card, come back to marry after you land and do spouse sponsorship immediately after. They are big on family reunification so it may be an option. Read here https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/family-sponsorship/spouse-partner-children.html

In any event, I think you must tell them...... unless you plan to land and marry later. If you get married, you probably must inform IRCC before you land.......not sure you can be married and land without declaring her as a spouse. I'm not 100% sure of this though.

Thanks a lot. Everyone can agree that the invaluable time you spend to answer to our queries and provide more clarity is well appreciated. I cant wait to share in your celebration once your Canada dream is achieved with a PPR. Welldone

Hello people, I want to know if it is better to select Ontario while doing your EE application since I have a sister there or I can still select that I'm interested in all provinces.


Does selecting just one province during your application improve your chances of getting and ITA from a province?

Keep trying ke. Send them email, that there is no available space online that you need to book yours as soon as possible, or walk in to their abuja office to write your name down.

somebody suggested;

Send them a mail with the subject: Appointment Booking, and attach a copy of your passport data page, stating your destination and the urgency.

If they do not respond after 2 working days, call them very early like 8-8:30 time. I used this method to get a date for my friend.

Good morning folks, please who has had his ielts results expire before? Did it expire on the date of exams or the date on TRF?
I wrote on February 13 last year and due to a successful EOR during the pandemic, my TRF result date is 28/5/2020, as it concerns IRCC, is my expiry date 13th February 2022 or 28th may?
The 2 years validity period counts from the result's date and not the date the test was taken.

I've been meaning to ask this question. I wrote my IElts exam in September 2020 and I collected the results one year later in August 2021 even though I checked the results online as soon as they came out. The only two dates on the certificate are September 2020 the date I sat the exam and August 2021 the date I collected the results. Which date do I use?

See here.....my reading of it is that it is from when the exam was written i.e. exam date NOT results date.

https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/questions-answers-by-topic.asp?st=29.4.2

10 mins later......saw this also from IRCC website, which says the opposite.....I would go with exam date though if it were me

Of a truth, I read the two texts during the week while researching the topic that's why I ran here to ask those whose ielts have expired before for first hand info to know if I should prepare to write again in December or early January

To be conservative just prepare to rewrite so profile doesn't expire because of IELTS and you lose any tie-break advantage.

I don't seem to get the reason your TRF was having August 2021 which was when you got your TRF, instead of the date the result actually came out.

Using mine as an example, I wrote mine on October 26th of 2019 but it just got expired today which marks exactly 2 years of my test result, so I'm preparing to write again and hopefully get CLB 10 again.
Wow that's sad to hear and thanks for the real life experience. I also made a CLB10 and I'm sure you'll hit it again.
It was 28th May actually, I raised an objection to my speaking score by way of an EOR and due to the pandemic, they didn't finish up and give me nu 7.5 till that date. Godspeed!

Good evening all,

I am at the point of creating my express entry profile and I am in a dilemma.

I have almost four years of work experience in 4 jobs across 3 NOCs but one is for one year and continuous in the same NOC and would be my primary NOC.
I would like to know if I would get crs points for the jobs that are not in the same NOC as my primary NOC?
Basically I want to clarify if I need to have the three years in the same NOC to get maximum CRS points for work experience.

Please this is urgentttt. THANK YOU ALL

You can get points for all 4 years in 3 nocs. The most important thing is that you have one year of continous experience in your primary noc.

My result actually came out online on the 8th of November then, but on my TRF I have 7th of November written there, and today marking exactly 2 years of the date written on my TRF, was when it got expired but I don't seem to get the reason your TRF was having August 2021 which was when you got your TRF, instead of the date the result actually came out.
I just checked again to be sure. The only dates there are the dates I took the exam then the date beside the administrators signature which is the day I collected the results. But I just noticed they wrote on the certificate that the test should be rewritten 2 years from the test date, so I'm just going to use the date I took the test.

You should use the date you took the test then as against the date you got your TRF, as it is more congruent with the validity period of 2 years

I believe your test result's date is now the date of the result from your EOR, but hopefully they resume the general draws before February next year. If there is no sign of the general draws happening close to that period and especially if your profile is not close to a year in the pool, then you should go with what mamaroon suggested so that it doesn't get ineligible and you get to be in a position to take advantage of tie break, if the need arises.

If it were me, I'd show up there at 5am...... when they begin at 8am, you show them the remed request from IRCC & plead that you be attended to because of the deadline....even if it means waiting till all the people with slots have been seen.

I'll be very surprised if they turn you away.
