My CRS is 374 and my profile abi na application status says I meet the minimum requirements.

I have left everything the way they are since July hoping to maybe get some ITA but nothing has happened.

What can I do to improve this score. Should I retake ielts and try to score 8.0 at least, or learn French or do masters. Aside this 3 is there anything else I can do?

Hi guys. Please still yet to submit my pr application. Please can anyone advise how to get Nigerian police clearance certificate from UK.

MODIFIED*

Please I have got some information from Nigerian Embassy website.

I understand I need a letter of introduction from
Nigerian embassy to the finger print agency (in this case, Scotland Yard in Uk)

Then I will then send fingerprints with letter to Alagbon for criminal check.

Please do I just show up at Nigerian embassy with the documents and letters will be given to me.

Or is it possible to have someone REQUEST THE PCC from Nigeria without a EVER NEEDING A fingerprint at all.

Please help me guys

Add a second certificate if your highest is only a first degree. (You can reach out to me for a quick second certificate you can complete between a month or two. Or do a search)
Retake your language test or add a second language.
Pray for provincial nomination.

SemperFid:
Thank you very much. Let me search for a quick certificate course.
However, are you saying out of the three actions u listed I must complete 2. My highest degree is my Optometry bachelors and I am using it to work as an optometrist now. If I find a related certificate program and complete, and then redo my language to score atleast 8.0 which won't be hard because I already scored 8.5 in academic. Then if I achieve these, I will be good to go?

YoungDaddyB:

Hi Optometrist here, you don't need an additional certificate course as OD is evaluated as Masters/professional degree requiring license to practice and the only thing that will give you more points than that is if you have PhD. However like you mentioned, you can try to max out your IELTS, if you are married your spouse should also write IELTS and evaluate their education credentials this should boost your CRS score a little, learning French is also an option.
Ps. You mentioned optometry bachelors? I don't know of any Nigerian university that awards BSc Optometry, on the off chance that you are not Nigerian if that is indeed what you have, then you can definitely look into getting a second cert. Also its IELTS general that is used for express entry not academic because you said something about getting 8.5 in IELTS academic.

SemperFid:
Thank you for your response.
It's Doctor of Optometry degree as a matter of fact. But i just mentioned the bachelor's because it's a first degree 6 years program.

I did the general first and scored 7.5 everything then I got into the pool but everything has been quiet so I decided to try out academic. I needed to apply for an MSc Vision Science program in the U.S and take advantage of the funding options available. I scored 8.5 on the acada and have sent my application and just hoping for the best.

Now I haven't forgotten about my express entry pool even though nothing is happening. It looks like I'll be needing to redo my language tests. I heard about CELPIP, and the popular opinion is that it's somewhat better, so I intend to write celpip this time. If I max out on my language tests, my crs will be 425. So I still need something to take it up.

Oly23:
Oh ok cool, when you mentioned bachelors it gave the wrong impression, regardless of it being a first degree you are awarded OD not BSc , anuways you definitely should rewrite the language test, 425 is not that high of a CRS score but it will definitely boost your chances of getting NOI from Ontario or you might even be lucky to get Federal ITA the next time they do a health category based draw, because apart from learning French and writing TEF there really isn't much you can do to improve your score again.

SemperFid:
Thanks so much. You've been very helpful. I've used the calculator to quantify all my options and it turns out taking the TEF exam will give me the highest boost all things being equal. That's what I'll do.

Can you recommend a tutor?

eniola1010:
Bro go to the possap website
U will select oversea or diaspora
There is a finger print document u will download
Go to whs or tesco buy an ink pad
Do the finger print urself
And upload the doc back on possap website
Then after a week
Nigerian police will send ur downladable police clearance to you

So u dont need all these embassy stuff u mentioned

Oly23:
You are very welcome!! Learning French and writing the TEF is no walk in the park though, that's about a 1-2 years commitment, so I would still advice you rewrite your language test be in the pool with the 425 while learning French.
As for a tutor I sadly can't recommend any, I know of Alliance Francais and institut Francais French schools , but you can check page 1 of this thread I think there is a link to the TEF thread and you'd get more guidance there.

What evaluation service did you use? Was your degree evaluated as a Professional/Masters degree?

You may be leaving free points on the table.

CornOak:
Damn! Start from here. You need to reevaluate your credential with a body that recognizes your degree as professional. Check ICAS and ICES.

Good luck.

SemperFid:
Yes, very good point. Thank you.
Should I redo ielts or take celpip?

Oly23:
Weird, I used WES as well and every other colleague I know of used WES as well and report always states 6 years of professional study. Are you certain you chose the correct evaluation i.e document by document for immigration?
I wanted to attach a screenshot of what my report looks like but I can't.
