Santino1:


Just to add another perspective to the discussion. Like I already mentioned in my PPR rant, I only got a one page letter from Credit Suisse a couple of days before my ITA stating all my accounts, date they were opened etc (i.e. following the CIC guideline) and my balance on the day the letter was printed. Thus, in my opinion there is no way to know if I had a lump sum deposited a day before the letter was printed or not.

Note to all. I'm not advising people to start circumventing the process (if CIC catch you and slam 5 years ban on you for lying, Santion1 no dey abeg). Just though I should enrich the discussion.

Kontagious:



Thank you fellas.

Cochtrane, precedence has it that some if not many got away with such arrangement but sadly, we hardly ever read of rejections/bans on this thread. That does not take away the fact that some do actually get banned, and of course, not a set rule that this POF arrangements leads to rejection/ban. I asked just so we exercise caution and be ready/able to defend whatever document that is put forward.

Santino1, truly, providing POF in the required format will not reveal one received a lump sum few days before printing the letter but if that particular account over the past 6 months had far lesser inflows/outflows, then the average balance for the last month will be significantly different from the previous 5. Thus, it will be easy to conclude a major inflow came in the last month. This I presume does not apply to you. Even if you had a huge deposit in the last month, judging by your posts so far, I’d assume you have such inflows/outflows over time thereby making your balance for the six months somewhat balance. But for someone whose account has been receiving salary of say N400,000 with other little inflows then getting a sudden hit of N5m, average balance for the 6th month will be way greater than the other 5. Then again, it’s safe to say most Nigerian applicants don’t get the luxury of having the CIC POF format.

Raconteur14, your input is valued. True time of deposit does not necessarily matter. But having one month (the last month at that) stand like Okorocha’s statues amongst midgets just doesn’t look good to me. Especially when I know I received the money as a gift. I’d rather back that document up necessarily before being asked to explain, then I start looking for ways to do what should have been done before.

No one is saying applicants should not receive heavy amounts at any one time but can that money be explained when the question is asked? My concern was born out of curiosity as it seems some of us prefer not to go the gift deed route, hence, we receive the money then throw in FD/Tbills. The ultimate question I silently ask is, how do you defend this if you get ADR for 6/12 months statement of account. Recently, we’ve seen some ridiculous ADR coming from LVO in particular. That statement will definitely reveal what the applicant initially tried burying. Consequence of the statement and fate of the applicant is what is left for the VO to decide.

Thank you guys.

I command her to bless you with nice scores in Jesus name. Let someone not come and go and fall your hand because of her inefficiencies.

Yeah, I also think they use that paper for grading cos my examiner scribbled down stuff like 8, 7.5, 8 and 7.5 during and after my half-baked stories. She nearly caught me peeping into her paper. I hope that thing I saw reflects sha.

Anyone here for the Saturday written tests?

It is ok to be anxious. I was too, till the minute I saw my results. But I always recited Philippians 4:13 every time the fear came: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. If you are a Christian, you may want to say it often. Goan write and comman give us good news joor.

Amen to your prayers. Saturday test... Which centre?

Hello good people, and many thanks to you all.

I am kinda new here though I have been reading this thread for a week now, pretty long I must confess but I have a question and would really appreciate if someone can guide me.

1.I tried to get my WES evaluation done, i have registered and I have my school transcript with me as i had requested for it about 2 years ago, though I have opened the seal but its still signed. can I still use it for my WES evaluation or I have to request for another transcript?

2. Who can point me to IELTS study materials that they have used and proven helpful recently?

3. Is it wise for me to go through EE route or I should try going for my masters in Canada considering my age.


Would appreciate a prompt response.

Thank you all

Hello everyone
Please help with an answer on how to go about sending certificate to WES via fax. I have read the two threads for over two weeks and can't seem to figure it out clearly. I

Theyolu:
My speaking test is in three hours. I'm a little nervous but I'm looking forward to sharing my testimony here by December 15.

dupyshoo:
You did not include the average balance for the past 6 months, which is part of the requirements. If you had done that, any huge lump sum after ITA will likely be obvious.




Totally agree with this. It is always better to just get gift deed done for huge lump sum.

- Visit https://app.hellofax.com/home
- Click on "Get started"
- Sign up with google or create an account using any email address you operate
- You may only be able to send (but not receive) fax messages except you pay a subscription fee

I have used this service and WES received my document and updated my profile accordingly in less than 4 hours. That's how efficient it is. I am sure the hard copies I sent via post would still be on it's way while this one had already resolved my issues. Enjoy!

Thank you Mcstan, God bless you
That's where the confusion is. Would I need to receive anything from them subsequently, so I would know if the paid packages are better. I don't mind paying the $9.99 a month.
Thanks for the prompt response!

Favoredme:


@unstoppable, use hellofaxdotcom or myfaxdotcom or faxzerodotcom and follow their instructions. Use a plain sheet of paper to indicate your reference number and name. Then fax both that and your certificates to WES via 4169729004.

Abbylee:
Hiya

Please I have some questions.

Im guessing your pension manager is Stanbic. Did they stamp your statement and letter? i have got a letter which has been signed but not stamped. They said they don't normally stamp. The statement as well was sent to me in black and white and not stamped.

Was yours like this as well?

Thank you!!!

Please save your $10, you will surely have better need for it in the coming weeks/months. Unless you want to bless a brother cos in this journey, even the widow's mite counts
Anyway, the free version will serve the purpose

yimiton:
Yes, it's IBTC and no, they didn't stamp it. The statement was also in black and white on their letter head.
